Chapter 20 - Accident (2/2)
“How do you know that it hasn’t been discovered?” The Doctor asked.
“If her parents know, there is no way they wouldn’t have told us.” Su Chen asked somewhat helplessly, “Now, the patient is at your place?”
“Erm, I’m the attending physician of the surgical department of H Hospital. I am standing beside the operating table right now. She’s my patient now, and I’m the chief surgeon!”
Zeng Fangcai was a bit puzzled. “Is it really a heart condition? Congenital heart disease caused this?”
The chief surgeon? Su Chen was very surprised.
This was a height that most medical practitioners could never reach in their entire lives. It was a position that many people dreamed of reaching.
If the hospital was compared to the army, then the chief surgeon was definitely a king of soldiers. Moreover, he was a veteran king who was comparable to the entire platoon. He was a top-notch king, a king among kings of soldiers.
Su Chen secretly thought to himself. He actually let a professional chief surgeon act as a second-in-command for himself. It was worth it! It was something that could be bragged about for a lifetime.
“Little fella? Can you hear me?” Zeng Fangcai asked tentatively.
“I can hear you!” Su Chen replied excitedly and calmed down a bit as he said, “There is a way to do this. There should be instruments around you to check now. After you go out and confirm with the patient’s family, check it and you should be able to know if it is a heart condition.”
Zeng Fangcai was a little annoyed when he heard that. He had been so anxious that he had neglected such things. “Alright, I understand.”
“Mr. Zeng, it’s best to do it as soon as possible. After all, time is of the essence right now. According to the little girl’s condition, her blood loss has already reached a critical point and her injuries are severe. So after confirming it, we must not use ultrasound during the process. Otherwise, the little girl’s body definitely won’t be able to withstand it.”
“I found that her blood pressure is weakening, but she’s already receiving blood transfusions. She hasn’t lost any blood. All the procedures were carried out properly. This is very abnormal.” Zeng Fangcai was puzzled. “What should I do?”
“Don’t be anxious and calm down.” Su Chen’s brain was running at a rapid pace as knowledge of Surgical Expertise kept being transmitted to his mind. He kept verifying a large amount of practical experience in surgery, and then said.
“I got it. Is it possible that her heart is accumulating water? The situation is urgent. I can only remove the gas to prevent her chest from inflicting air damage, but I don’t have the equipment to expel the fluid. After all, the accumulation of fluid can also cause damage to her physical function, causing her blood pressure to decrease.”
Before Zeng Fangcai could speak, Su Chen dismissed his words again.
“No, no, it’s not like that. But I’m still not too sure about it now. I need to be present at the scene and see the actual situation of the patient before I can know what’s going on.”
“No problem. I’ll arrange for someone to pick you up.” Zeng Fangcai immediately made a decision. After all, saving people was the most important thing. “Where are you? But I might not be able to control this situation. I only have 40 minutes at most.”
Uh,” Zeng Fangcai said directly, “Time is of the essence. Can you make it in time?”
“No, we’re quite far away. There’s not enough time for the car to pick me up and drive to your place.” Su Chen was getting anxious too. “I’ll think of a way to get a car to bring me there!”
He was extremely anxious, and his worry intensified.
After all, this was his first surgery. He did not want any accidents to happen to his first patient, so he was even more worried.
After all, the young lady was only in her teens. She still had a future ahead of her.
If they really failed to save her, then her life would be gone just like that. Su Chen would be extremely saddened..
