Inside the outpatient clinic.
Su Zhengnan glanced at the prescription in his hand, and then took the female student's pulse again for a second examination.
After confirming the patient's pulse was correct during the follow-up examination.
Su Zhengnan glanced at the prescription in his hand again, found that there was nothing wrong with it, and then said to the female student in front of him:
"The prescription should be correct, so the problem must be with the Chinese herbs they prescribed!"
It's important to know that a traditional Chinese medicine prescription contains at least several herbs, all of which are balanced in terms of yin and yang. If even one of the herbs has the wrong properties, then the medicine may not have any effect at all.
It's not that the prescription is wrong, it's that the medicine is wrong!
The saying that traditional Chinese medicine was ruined by Chinese herbal medicine is not a joke.
Artificially cultivated Chinese medicinal herbs, counterfeit medicines, etc., have different medicinal effects from wild-grown Chinese medicinal herbs.
The female student blinked, stunned, and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? This... this Chinese medicine could have a problem?"
Su Zhengnan smiled and said, "There may be problems with the Chinese medicine. Nowadays, some unscrupulous drug dealers like to sell inferior products in order to make money, and some even use fake medicine to impersonate real medicine. So, the wrong medicine will naturally be dispensed."
"Huh? Is that so?"
The female student naturally didn't understand this principle, since she didn't know anything about traditional Chinese medicine.
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly, then asked the female student for her name and age, and then wrote a new prescription on the medical record.
Then, Su Zhengnan stood up and said, "Take this form to the nurses' station to pay the fee. You can get the medicine here. The prescription is similar to the one you had before, but the medicine will definitely be effective."
With that, Su Zhengnan turned around and began to fetch the medicine.
"Okay, I understand, thank you doctor, cough cough cough..."
The female student nodded in response, coughed, and turned to walk towards the nurses' station.
The female student quickly paid the fee.
Su Zhengnan also prepared the medicine for her, and with a smile, handed it to her, saying, "Two doses a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. Our school clinic offers a decoction service. Would you like it?"
"Uh, yes!"
The female student nodded blankly in response.
"good!"
Su Zhengnan smiled and wrote out another order form for preparing the decoction, then handed it to the female student and told her to go to the nurses' station to find Nurse Zhou.
As soon as the other person left, more students came in to consult Su Zhengnan.
..............
at the same time.
On the other side.
The emergency department of the Third People's Hospital of Beijing suddenly received an emergency call: a multi-vehicle traffic accident had occurred on the inner ring road, ten kilometers away from their location.
The accident involved a six-vehicle pileup, resulting in 17 injuries, two people falling into a coma at the scene with serious injuries, and one person dying on the spot.
Beep beep... Beep beep... Beep beep...
Several ambulances arrived at the scene quickly.
A group of emergency doctors got out of the ambulance and, led by Zhu Jiangcai, the director of the emergency department, began to treat the injured at the scene.
Of course, in addition to the 120 ambulance, 119 and 110 also arrived!
This was a multi-vehicle collision, so police were naturally needed at the scene to maintain order.
The scene was chaotic, with wrecked car ruins everywhere and injured patients lying around screaming in pain.
"Quickly, quickly, save the injured!"
Zhu Jiang gave instructions to a group of emergency doctors and then rushed to the rescue site immediately.
If it were just a group of doctors...
In the face of a multi-vehicle collision, it is impossible to rescue all the injured immediately. Fortunately, with the assistance of firefighters and police, even those trapped inside the vehicles can be rescued quickly.
However, the injuries of these injured people were quite serious, and they had to be sent back to the hospital immediately for emergency surgery.
"Quickly, quickly get the injured person into the ambulance."
Zhu Jiangcai yelled at the medical staff carrying the stretcher.
Finally, after more than an hour of emergency rescue, all the injured patients were sent to the emergency department of the Third People's Hospital.
Zhu Jiangcai naturally returned to the emergency department as well, and led all the medical staff in the department to get busy.
Those injured should undergo necessary examinations, receive appropriate bandaging, and be prepared for surgery if needed!
All the medical staff in the emergency department were extremely busy, and they even had to call in doctors from other departments for help.
With nearly twenty emergency patients being admitted to the hospital at once, coupled with the existing patient volume in the emergency department, the department was naturally short-staffed.
Tap tap tap...
"Director Zhu, Director Zhu, several injured people over there have developed serious internal bleeding problems. Our operating rooms are already full. What should we do now?"
Suddenly, Dr. Chen from the emergency department rushed over and asked Zhu Jiangcai.
Zhu Jiangcai was taken aback for a moment and asked, "How many of the injured have internal bleeding? Is the blood bank running out of blood?"
"We just checked all the injured. Apart from the three who have already been taken to the operating room, we found that four other injured people have severe internal bleeding, and several others have fractures and cracks of varying degrees. The remaining injured people mostly have minor injuries."
Dr. Chen glanced at the test results in his hand and reported to Director Chen, "Our hospital's blood bank has enough blood, but one of the injured patients has a rather rare blood type that we don't have. Moreover, this patient's internal bleeding seems to be quite severe, and surgery must be performed immediately."
It's important to know that while there are many surgeons in the emergency department, each surgery requires several surgeons to work together.
In particular, such large-scale surgeries require the cooperation of a first assistant, second assistant, third assistant, and anesthesiologist to be completed; it cannot be accomplished simply by sending in a few doctors.
There are currently four surgeries being performed simultaneously here, which has reached the emergency department's surgical capacity.
Even if Zhu Jiangcai and Dr. Chen went up again at this point, they still wouldn't be able to gather enough surgeons and nurses for the fifth surgery.
Listening to Dr. Chen's report.
Zhu Jiangcai's eyebrows were almost squeezed together as he kept thinking of a solution.
In this situation, there are simply not enough medical staff in the emergency department. We must ask surgeons from the emergency departments of other hospitals to come and consult. Otherwise, these patients with severe internal bleeding may die in the hospital.
This outcome is something their hospital cannot afford.
After all, this was a multi-vehicle collision, and it happened in the capital city; there were orders coming down from above.
Ensuring the safety of the injured and saving lives is their sacred duty as doctors.
