After the Monday meeting concluded.
Su Zhengnan returned to his director's office and sat down. He sorted through the materials that the chief physicians had given him and couldn't help but glance at the changes on the task data panel.
The data panel displayed:
[Host: Su Zhengnan.]
[Bound Identity: Director of Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital]
[Daily Task: Increase the discharge rate of inpatients in the current department to 50% to receive the reward 'Mastery of the Complete Guide to Traditional Chinese Medicine ENT'. Current progress: 0.00% (Incomplete).]
[Special Task: Complete an ongoing TCM research project within the department. Reward: 'Proficient in the dialectical reasoning of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine'. Current progress: 0/1 (Incomplete).]
[Hidden Quest: Not yet triggered.]
.........
"Um?"
"The discharge rate has increased to 50%?"
Su Zhengnan glanced at the refreshed daily task and his eyelids twitched involuntarily, feeling that this task was a bit difficult.
You should know that most of the patients in the inpatient ward are recuperating here; to put it bluntly, they treat this place like a nursing home.
To achieve a discharge rate of over 50%, they would have to be all healthy and perfectly fit.
However, it's not entirely without a solution.
It just means we need to spend more time conditioning the bodies of these patients.
"Is this even considered a daily task?"
Su Zhengnan scratched his head and sighed softly. Then, he composed himself and began to look through the documents that the chief physician had given him.
Then, for the next period of time.
In addition to his regular rounds in the department, Su Zhengnan spends his days checking on patients in the inpatient ward and adjusting their treatment plans.
Su Zhengnan is becoming increasingly familiar with the operation of the entire Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
However, apart from Dr. Niu and others in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine who were willing to cooperate with him, the chief physicians in other departments still had some opinions about him.
Fortunately, the deputy director of the department, Feng Xuegong, followed his lead.
This made Su Zhengnan feel quite good; at least he wasn't fighting alone.
..............
Soon, half a month had passed.
This day was Saturday.
The weather outside was sunny and breezy.
If we disregard the dust rising from the capital, the weather is actually quite nice.
In the inpatient ward of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, Zhang Yaqi, in bed number 32, completed her discharge procedures.
Yes, that's right!
That's that national-level female diver.
After half a month of treatment, Zhang Yaqi's lung pain has been completely cured.
After completing the discharge procedures at the nurses' station.
Zhang Yaqi made a special trip to thank Su Zhengnan, exchanged contact information with him, and then left the hospital with a happy expression.
Tap tap tap...
Zhang Yaqi had just left not long ago.
Feng Xuegong hurried over and said urgently to Su Zhengnan:
"Director Su, something terrible has happened! There's been an incident at the gynecology clinic. You need to go there quickly!"
"What happened?"
Su Zhengnan's expression froze slightly; this was the first time he had encountered a situation where something went wrong at a traditional Chinese medicine gynecology clinic.
It's important to know that nowadays, most people go to Western medicine obstetrics and gynecology clinics for gynecological issues, and very few people come to traditional Chinese medicine gynecology clinics.
As Feng Xuegong led Su Zhengnan toward the TCM gynecology clinic downstairs, he said, "A patient who was trying to prevent miscarriage suddenly experienced severe bleeding. The treatment this woman was receiving here was TCM to prevent miscarriage. Director Su, you can ask Dr. Liu for details later."
Upon hearing Feng Xuegong's words, Su Zhengnan quickened his pace.
The pregnant woman, who was originally trying to save her pregnancy, suddenly suffered a massive hemorrhage.
This situation is extremely urgent; even a minute's delay could lead to miscarriage.
After all, if there were no problems with the fetus, why would the expectant mother need to come here for traditional Chinese medicine to prevent miscarriage?
Therefore, even without seeing the mother's condition, Su Zhengnan could guess that she probably had symptoms of congenital miscarriage, which was why she came to see a traditional Chinese medicine gynecologist.
In fact, compared to Western medicine's pregnancy-preserving drugs, traditional Chinese medicine's pregnancy-preserving drugs are truly free of toxic side effects.
This is one of the reasons why most pregnancy-preserving drugs are traditional Chinese medicines.
Ding-dong!
Soon, Su Zhengnan followed Feng Xuegong down the elevator to the outpatient department.
The two hurriedly arrived at the traditional Chinese medicine gynecology clinic.
At this moment, the TCM gynecology clinic is already crowded with medical staff.
Chief Physician Liu Juan was sweating profusely with anxiety, but she couldn't think of a way to stop the bleeding in the postpartum woman. Everyone present was on tenterhooks.
"Doctor, my wife is still bleeding! Please think of something quickly!"
The woman's husband knelt down anxiously and pleaded with the chief physician, Liu Juan.
"Don't worry, we will do our best to protect the baby."
Seeing the woman bleeding heavily from her lower body, Liu Juan, the chief physician, was extremely anxious and asked Ren Wenying, the attending physician beside her:
"So, what did the Western medicine obstetrics and gynecology department say? Does Director Hao have time to come over?"
"I just called, and Director Hao said she can't leave right now, and the delivery room and operating room in the Western medicine obstetrics and gynecology department are in use, so there's no way to arrange surgery to stop the bleeding."
Ren Wenying replied anxiously.
"What...what should we do?"
Liu Juan panicked and muttered, "The mother's pulse is extremely weak. If we don't find a way to stop the bleeding soon, not only might the baby be lost, but both mothers might also be in mortal danger."
Liu Juan had just finished speaking.
Feng Xuegong pushed aside the nurses crowding the doorway and called out:
"Make way, make way! Don't crowd at the door. Director Su is here. Let Director Su see you."
Upon hearing Feng Xuegong's shout, the nurses on site immediately made way for him.
Su Zhengnan pushed through the crowd and went in. He quickly stepped forward and placed his hand on the woman's wrist to carefully feel her pulse.
Upon taking her pulse, Su Zhengnan discovered that the woman had previously shown signs of a congenital miscarriage.
The pulse was thin and weak, and the breath was barely perceptible, clearly indicating that there was a problem with the fetus in the womb, which caused the massive bleeding.
Moreover, the pulse of a woman in labor is not only thin and weak, but more importantly, slow.
The pulse is slow and the tongue is pale.
This indicates that the mother's spleen and stomach are very weak.
After examining the new mother's tongue, Su Zhengnan turned to Liu Juan, who was still in a daze, and asked urgently:
"Which prescription did you give the pregnant woman before to help her maintain her pregnancy? Was it Huangqin Decoction or Antai Baizhu Powder?"
"It's...it's Atractylodes macrocephala powder for preventing miscarriage!"
Liu Juan replied with a blank expression.
Su Zhengnan raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but sigh softly:
"Can't you tell that the postpartum woman has a weak spleen and stomach? It's true that the Atractylodes macrocephala powder can help stabilize the pregnancy, but only if the pregnant woman's spleen and stomach are strong. If the pregnant woman's spleen and stomach are weak, it can easily lead to damage to the fetus."
"I...I didn't sense any problems with the mother's spleen and stomach in her pulse. I'm...I'm sorry!"
Liu Juan was slightly taken aback, and apologized with a guilty look on her face.
As the chief physician of traditional Chinese medicine gynecology, Liu Juan has relatively rich clinical experience.
However, most traditional Chinese medicine gynecologists treat gynecological conditions, and obstetric cases are relatively rare, which leads to a lack of clinical experience in obstetrics.
Su Zhengnan glanced at her but did not continue to blame her. The most urgent task was to treat the pregnant woman first.
After thinking for a moment, Su Zhengnan took out silver needles and began to sterilize them, while instructing Ren Wenying who was standing beside him:
"Prescription: 15g oyster shell, 20g prepared licorice root, 30g Solomon's seal rhizome, 20g platycodon root, 15g inula flower... Tell the pharmacy to send the decoction-free version, and be quick!"
"Okay, sure."
Ren Wenying nodded, turned around, and headed to the Chinese medicine pharmacy with the prescription she had written down.
at the same time.
Su Zhengnan instructed the nurses beside him, "Lift up the mother's clothes, quick, I need to give her acupuncture."
Upon hearing this, the nurses exchanged glances and then quickly lifted the clothes off the woman in labor.
At this point, Feng Xuegong wisely dismissed all the irrelevant people.
"Go, go, go! Everyone who isn't in the gynecology clinic, get out! The mother's family members, get out too! Don't interfere with Director Su's treatment."
With that, Feng Xuegong kicked the group of people out of the clinic.
The previously slightly crowded consultation room instantly fell silent.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Zhengnan swiftly inserted the silver needle into the ground.
Kong Zui, Yin Bai, Jiao Xin...
This time, Su Zhengnan only selected these three acupoints for hemostasis during acupuncture.
Kongzui acupoint is located on the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin. It is a place where the Qi and blood of the Lung Meridian gather deeply, so it can moisten the lungs and stop bleeding.
Yinbai (SP1) is the Jing-Well point of the Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian. Since the spleen governs blood, this point can strengthen the spleen and regulate blood. It is often used to treat metrorrhagia, hematochezia, and excessive menstrual bleeding.
Jiaoxin acupoint is located on the lower middle section of the inner side of the lower leg. It connects to the Sanyinjiao acupoint of the Spleen Meridian. The acupoint belongs to the Governing Vessel and is mainly used for blood disorders.
Acupuncture at this point can stop bleeding, regulate menstruation, and benefit the kidneys, thus it can treat menstrual disorders, metrorrhagia, and other conditions.
Acupuncture at these three acupoints can regulate bleeding below.
Therefore, it is the most suitable acupuncture point at present.
Three bright silver needles were stuck into the woman's body. Su Zhengnan gently twisted the needles for a few minutes but did not remove them.
In no time at all.
The amount of bleeding from the mother's body then decreased significantly.
"The bleeding has decreased!"
Liu Juan kept a close eye on the amount of bleeding from the woman's body and immediately noticed the change in the amount of bleeding, a look of joy appearing on her face.
Su Zhengnan glanced at it and said, "This is not enough. Acupuncture can only be an aid; we also need to use medicine."
At this point, Su Zhengnan stepped forward, grabbed the woman's wrist, and took her pulse again.
The pulse remained as weak as before.
The bleeding was a bit excessive, and the mother was clearly deficient in qi and blood.
Su Zhengnan frowned and gently pressed his hand on the pregnant woman's belly to check on the condition of the fetus inside.
Even though there's a layer of skin between us.
However, given Su Zhengnan's current tactile ability, he can still clearly feel the movements of the fetus inside his womb.
This is what makes his traditional Chinese medicine massage skills so impressive, reaching the level of a national-level doctor.
