Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s
Chapter 2124: Mastery of Internal and External Medicine
No need to ask; in fact, based on her memories from before, Xie Wanying guessed that it’s probably about her cousin Linlin taking the university entrance exam next year. With another university student in the family, tuition fees need to be gathered again, and preparations must start ahead of time.
Back then, to support Xie Wanying in going to university, her aunt first took out her own savings. Grandpa Sun is now figuring out ways to help the second granddaughter gather tuition fees. Sun Rongfang, similarly, is trying her best to help her sister out with the funds. For this reason, both Sun Rongfang and her sister Sun Rongyu have taken on some handicraft work to do at home.
For an average family, supporting a child through college is truly challenging. If they manage to get their child through university but the child then fails to find a job, one can imagine the blow it would deal to the family. Precisely because of this, Sun Rongfang is in a rush to go to the Capital to check on the situation for her daughter.
After hanging up with her mother, Xie Wanying walked back to the school dormitory alone.
The day of the cross-department surgery arrived in the blink of an eye.
After lunch, the surgical team from Beidou Third Hospital rushed to Guo Zhi Hospital. This time, Guo Zhi Hospital sent a special vehicle to pick them up from Beidou Third Hospital. The minivan was on the road for over half an hour, and the group seized the time to take a nap and refresh themselves.
They arrived at Guo Zhi Hospital a little after 1 PM. After checking the patient’s condition, they needed to prepare for surgery. The process in between was a non-stop hustle, without a moment’s pause.
The doctors at Guo Zhi Hospital weren’t much better off. They still had to work in the morning. It’s said that the morning surgeries stretched until almost one o’clock before a few doctors could have lunch. Being a resident doctor, Dr. Yuh ran around after eating without rest to come downstairs to receive them, fully proving that resident doctors are forever the busiest.
On the way, Du Haiwei inquired if the patient’s condition had improved.
Dr. Yuh nodded, saying: "Just as Director Zhang expected, after the medication, the urine output increased, and the situation improved significantly."
Previously, it seemed the patient’s condition was worsened by some edema in the body. The use of diuretics is quite particular. Some people, after taking the medication, don’t know if it’s overused because the diuretics have no effect. It’s unknown what miraculous drug Old Evil Zhang, Zhang Huayao, used that worked so immediately.
When using diuretics, it’s crucial to replenish some essential substances the patient loses upon urination, such as the commonly seen clinical practice of potassium supplementation. When people from Beidou Third Hospital went to the ward, they indeed saw potassium being dripped through the IV line in the patient’s hand. The drip rate of potassium requires careful attention. As the nurses transferred the patient to the surgical cart, they cautiously monitored the IV line.
Seeing the patient’s improved condition upon arrival was quite surprising for the group from Beidou. Two days ago, the patient couldn’t lie flat in bed, but today they surprisingly could.
Wow. Today, Du Mengen, who managed to persuade his father to come and observe the surgery, thought: Zhang Huayao is truly amazing. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
How can a surgeon possibly use medication so miraculously that even physicians would be fully impressed?
Boss Zhang is worthy of admiration; his capability demonstrates that a good surgeon must be proficient in both surgery and medicine, thought Xie Wanying.
"Yingying."
A voice called out from the corridor. Xie Wanying turned around and saw Senior Brother Shim and his little follower Zhang Shuping behind him.
Zhang Shuping probably heard rumors from Du Mengen, didn’t dare to ask Du Haiwei, and requested his uncle’s permission to come and observe.
Seeing his classmate, Zhang Shuping came closer. The two young men stood aside and chatted eagerly.
"Is your uncle performing surgery today?" Du Mengen wanted to see Boss Zhang perform a surgery. The rumored Boss Zhang no longer operates, leaving no learning opportunity for the younger generation.
