"I'm at least 90% sure!"
Su Zhengnan said with a confident expression.
Upon hearing this, Li Huai'an's doubts lessened considerably, and looking at his junior brother's confident expression, he said:
"Since you're so confident, then give it a try!"
As he spoke, Li Huai'an turned to Zheng Nanqing beside him and asked, "Director Zheng, what do you think?"
This is, after all, the obstetrics and gynecology department. Ultimately, whether or not to treat the pregnant woman according to Su Zhengnan's method is up to Zheng Nanqing, the head of the obstetrics and gynecology department, to make the final decision.
"ah?"
Zheng Nanqing was taken aback for a moment, unsure of what to do. So she turned to Yang Zhen'an in the emergency department and asked, "Director Yang, what do you think?"
"Me? I personally trust Dr. Su!"
Yang Zhenan smiled and nodded.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Nanqing pondered for a moment before finally speaking, "Since both Director Yang and Director Li believe in Dr. Su's words, then I naturally have no reason to doubt Dr. Su's diagnosis. Let's proceed with the treatment according to Dr. Su's instructions!"
At this point, Zheng Nanqing had no other choice.
Even if she didn't choose to believe Su Zhengnan, the final result would still be that she couldn't save the mother and the baby in her womb.
After all, if there's a way...
Why would she need to call the directors of the emergency department and the traditional Chinese medicine department to come for a consultation?
Moreover, Su Zhengnan said he was 90% certain, which is already a medical miracle.
"Then I'll prescribe the medicine now."
Seeing that Director Zheng had agreed to his treatment method, Su Zhengnan picked up a pen and quickly wrote out a prescription, saying at the same time:
"Treatment for this condition requires several steps. First, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis is only the first step; at the same time, it's also necessary to stop the bleeding. Then, medication to prevent miscarriage is used..."
"Prioritize removing blood stasis, and secondarily stop bleeding!"
"If the old blood isn't removed, new blood can't be generated, and this is the greatest harm to the fetus..."
Upon hearing Su Zhengnan say this...
For a moment, Li Huai'an fell into deep thought.
Among the group of people present, only Li Huai'an was the director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department; the others were all Western medicine doctors. Therefore, only he could understand what Su Zhengnan meant.
How can we promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis while also stopping bleeding?
Does this medicine exist in Traditional Chinese Medicine?
The answer is yes.
However, it requires physicians to have extensive clinical experience and knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine theory in order to make a quick judgment and determine which drugs can be used as adjuvants in the prescription.
Drugs such as rhubarb charcoal, Panax notoginseng, and lotus seedpods all have the effects of removing blood stasis and stopping bleeding.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Soon, Su Zhengnan wrote out a prescription.
Li Huai'an took the prescription and examined it carefully. He couldn't help but exclaim, "This prescription... is truly ingenious. It seems that your medical skills have completely surpassed mine, Junior Brother."
Looking at the prescription in his hand, Li Huai'an didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings.
Because the prescription that Su Zhengnan gave was really too good.
Even though Li Huai'an wasn't very proficient in obstetrics, he had a solid foundation in traditional Chinese medicine and could see the key to diagnosis and treatment from this prescription.
"It combines blood-regulating and hemostatic effects, clears heat and removes blood stasis while also invigorating qi and calming the fetus—truly a rare and wonderful prescription!"
Li Huai'an couldn't help but sigh.
Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "Senior brother, you flatter me. However, after the mother starts taking the medicine, she needs to be observed for a period of time to determine the stability of the fetus and the amount of bleeding in the mother before deciding whether to change the dosage."
"Don't worry, we will keep a close eye on this."
Zheng Nanqing, who was standing to the side, stepped forward and asked, "I just don't know how long this treatment process will take?"
Su Zhengnan glanced at her and said, "The treatment will probably take about a week. Let's see how it goes after she takes the medicine for a few days!"
"Okay, then let the pharmacy fill the prescription quickly!"
Li Huai'an nodded in agreement, then handed the prescription to Zheng Nanqing to begin treatment for the woman as soon as possible.
Zheng Nanqing glanced at the Chinese medicine prescription in his hand. Although he didn't understand it very well, he still signed his name on it in the end.
Then, a nurse took the medicine and rushed to the traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy.
More than half an hour later.
The nurse quickly brought over the prepared medicine.
Immediately afterwards, several medical staff began to busy themselves feeding the mother medication.
Everyone was hoping the medicine would work and that the mother and baby would be safe and sound.
During the wait, Su Zhengnan stayed by the woman's side, constantly observing her condition. Every now and then, he would take her pulse and feel the changes in her pulse.
Time passed second by second.
Suddenly, the amount of bleeding from the woman's vagina increased, accompanied by the flow of black blood clots.
"Oh no, the bleeding from the new mother seems to be getting heavier."
A nurse called out urgently, which startled Zheng Nanqing and the others, who all peeked over.
Su Zhengnan glanced at it and noticed that although the bleeding had increased, most of the blood coming out was not red blood, but black blood clots. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, this is a normal reaction after taking the medication."
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and said confidently, "It's about promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. During this process, the bleeding will definitely increase. Don't panic, the bleeding should stop by tomorrow."
"Give the mother another dose of medicine six hours later."
Upon hearing Su Zhengnan's words, the people in the ward looked at each other in shock.
After all, what he said was far too confident.
With such heavy bleeding now, will the bleeding be able to stop tomorrow?
They had never seen a traditional Chinese medicine doctor who could have such precise control over the effects of medicine!
Li Huai'an had great faith in Su Zhengnan's judgment and said with a smile, "Don't worry, since my junior brother said it's a normal reaction, then it must be a normal reaction. If anything happens to the mother, I'll take responsibility."
"this....."
Zheng Nanqing was taken aback for a moment, then sighed softly and said, "Alright, let's wait and see!"
With that, Zheng Nanqing suppressed his worries and turned to the nurse beside him, instructing her:
"Please observe the mother's condition carefully. If anything seems amiss, please inform me immediately. I have some things to attend to and will be away for a while."
As the director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the First People's Hospital of Beijing, Zheng Nanqing is very busy and cannot devote all her time to a pregnant woman.
This is where the role of nurses becomes apparent.
"Understood, Director Zheng."
Several nurses nodded in response.
Li Huai'an glanced at the time and realized it was almost 8 p.m., then turned to Su Zhengnan and said:
"Why don't we go grab a bite to eat first? If anything happens here, remember to call us right away, and we'll be right there."
"Understood, Director Li."
"Okay, then it's settled."
Li Huai'an nodded, then pulled Su Zhengnan out of the ward.
Seeing this, Yang Zhen'an followed closely behind and said with a smile, "Count me in, I haven't eaten yet either!"
"???"
Li Huai'an looked at him blankly and asked, "Aren't you busy in the emergency room? How come you have time to follow me around?"
Yang Zhenan smiled and said, "It's Saturday today, and it's not my shift. The deputy director is there!"
"what ever!"
Li Huai'an said something casually, and then took Su Zhengnan to the hospital cafeteria for a meal.
Yang Zhenan followed closely behind, feeling as if he had become a tagalong.
Actually, he wasn't following Li Huai'an, but Su Zhengnan.
As the director of the emergency department, Yang Zhenan naturally understood the importance of anesthesia without any side effects for surgical procedures, so he wanted to ask Su Zhengnan about acupuncture anesthesia.
Li Huai'an was naturally unaware of Yang Zhen'an's ulterior motives.
During the meal, Li Huai'an looked at Su Zhengnan and asked, "Junior Brother, are you really confident that you can guarantee the safety of both mother and child regarding the condition of that woman in labor just now?"
"Senior brother, why are you asking this question again? Didn't I just say that I'm at least 90% sure?"
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded, saying, "However, the next few days are still crucial. We need to continue to observe and adjust the prescription to ensure the safety of the mother and the fetus."
"Of course I know that, but you even brought him back to work at the Beijing Film Academy!"
Li Huai'an thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you rest at our hospital tonight? Anyway, it's the weekend, so you can rest for another day. I'll take you home early the day after tomorrow."
"As for the issue of the new mother, it would be best if everything went as you expected without any problems. If there are any issues, I will contact you promptly."
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, senior brother."
Su Zhengnan did not object to Li Huai'an's arrangement, after all, he was also considering the safety of the woman who had just given birth.
After all, this prescription was written by Su Zhengnan.
The mother is still experiencing severe bleeding, so naturally he can't go back now.
Yang Zhenan sat to the side, picking at his food without interrupting, until the two had finished their conversation, then he smiled and said to Su Zhengnan:
"Hey Dr. Su, how about you consider taking a temporary position in our emergency department sometime?"
"Director Yang, I'm afraid that won't work."
Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "I'm already on secondment in several places. If I were to take a secondment in your emergency department, I'm afraid I wouldn't have enough time!"
Su Zhengnan roughly guessed Yang Zhenan's thoughts.
However, he felt he definitely wouldn't have the time. The emergency department of the Third People's Hospital and the traditional Chinese medicine department of his senior brother's place were enough to keep him busy, not to mention his position as the school doctor.
If we add another department where someone is temporarily assigned to work.
From then on, he could forget about resting on weekends.
Undeterred, Yang Zhen'an said with feigned enthusiasm, "Oh, Dr. Su, please consider it. I only need you to come for one or two days a month, so we can manage both."
Su Zhengnan couldn't help but sigh and said, "Director Yang, I am truly grateful for your appreciation, but my energy is really limited, and I simply cannot be in two places at once."
"I see..."
Yang Zhenan looked slightly disappointed, but then smiled and said, "It's okay, there will definitely be opportunities to cooperate in the future. How about Dr. Su come to our emergency department sometime to give a lecture on acupuncture anesthesia?"
Upon hearing this, Su Zhengnan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's wait until we're done with this busy period, and then we can find some time to have a good talk with Director Yang."
"Okay, it's settled then."
Yang Zhenan seemed very happy.
After dinner, Su Zhengnan followed his senior brother Li Huai'an back to the obstetrics and gynecology department to take a look. The woman was still bleeding.
However, after the black blood clots flowed out, the amount of bleeding in the mother decreased significantly.
"It seems the prescription is working."
Su Zhengnan took the woman's pulse again for a second examination.
Li Huai'an nodded and said, "Well, since the mother is fine, come with me to rest. There's a bed available in my office."
Afterwards, the two returned to the director's office of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department to rest.
