Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation!-Chapter 249 - 165: Nationwide Attention, Saving a Life at All Costs! (Part 2)
This is what a hospital should do!
Even if there’s only a glimmer of hope, never give up on any patient!
In the footage, Qin Feng’s stern demeanor in response to questions exuded a sharp, indescribable charisma.
The video ends with Qin Feng and others in white clothes, striding confidently into the ICU with no hesitation, disappearing from view.
Just like warriors heading for battle, fearless.
Half an hour later,
a picture exploded online!
A web artist named Uhezhi uploaded a rough yet robust hand-drawn picture.
The top of the picture shows a firefighter desperately trying to pass a child through a window, surrounded by roaring flames.
Below, seven figures in white are walking bravely into the infernal gates formed by flames, surrounded by falling angel feathers.
Resolute and fearless!
Anyone who sees this picture gets goosebumps all over!
At this moment, the hero is not only the firefighter.
But also the doctors who are rescuing the firefighter!
At this moment,
through computer and phone screens via the internet, many couldn’t hold back their tears.
Here lies hope, blessings, and emotions.
Because at this moment, they seemed to understand a famous quote from Kissinger’s "On China."
Chinese people are always well protected by the bravest among them!
...
ICU,
Inside the meeting room,
Qin Feng sat at the main seat, beside him was Director Qi from critical care, followed by heads and deputy heads from various departments.
"Old Xiao, what do you think of this patient?"
Vice Director Liu looked at the director of the burns department and asked.
"To be honest, Director, with a 95% burn area, it’s already very difficult to maintain even the current physiological indicators. Overcoming infection is literally a matter of life and death, extremely challenging!"
Director Xiao from the burns department shook his head, his face full of worry.
This situation is something he’s only seen in textbooks, hardly ever in real life.
Because patients with burns of this extent usually can’t survive beyond 8 hours of basic physiological maintenance before dying.
They don’t even make it to the infection stage!
"Don’t mention us, even if the patient were sent to the provincial hospital, their chance of survival wouldn’t be over 5%.
In the last food street explosion, the highest death toll was from severe burns, and our country’s experience in treating such major burn victims is severely lacking, alas~"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a heavy heart and their expressions were grim.
Because Director Xiao’s words reflected reality!
In an instant, the whole meeting room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, atmosphere tense and completely devoid of the earlier bravado.
The director wants full effort for saving the patient, but how to exert this full effort?
No one had an answer!
"Qin Feng, how about you give your input, now that everyone is at a loss."
Vice Director Liu looked at Qin Feng, who remained composed, and asked gravely.
After all, Qin Feng was the patient’s attending physician, handpicked after a discussion with the director!
It’s believed that he might have some thoughts regarding this.
"The patient’s condition is indeed as Director Xiao said, and with conventional treatment methods, I can tell you now, it’s certain death!"
Wow~
As soon as the words came out, everyone froze, and immediately couldn’t help but start discussing quietly.
"Director Qin, since that’s the case, why did you take the case?"
"Yeah, now our city hospital is under the spotlight, a failure would be disastrous!"
"It’s the hospital’s reputation, Director Qin, you cannot be careless."
"What do we do now? Director Qin, should we transfer them quickly?"
"Call the Jinling Sect’s medical helicopter, it saves time, losing hundreds of thousands is better than having the hospital become a target online."
....
Everyone expressed their opinions in turn, seemingly losing confidence, starting to think of contingency plans.
But actually, Qin Feng had already considered these when he saw the injured firefighter.
If he could transfer him, would he have waited until now?
Besides, transferring to the provincial city?
Better to do it himself!
At least,
From Qin Feng’s experiences, there are still over ten cases of perfect treatment for such major burns worldwide to refer to.
Plus, with all the top-notch techniques from burn specialists and skin graft specialists, it’s safe to say only he is confident for treatment now! 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
95% burn area, under normal circumstances is extremely rare, with survival chances being pitiful.
Qin Feng has already integrated all treatment methods from both Chinese and Western medicine in his mind, forming a complete surgery plan spanning half a year.
Although it might be unpleasant for the patient, he believes this young firefighter named Hou Gang can pull through!
As a firefighter, he still has to protect the people; as a man, he still has parents and a wife!
"Alright."
Qin Feng raised his hand to stop everyone, standing up with a firm tone,
"From this moment, I’ll be setting all treatment plans, requiring your assistance and implementation.
Vice Director Liu, please ensure all medical resources are at my disposal, can you?"
"No problem! I’ll get you whatever we have!"
Vice Director Liu patted his chest and immediately guaranteed it.
"Alright! Does anyone have objections?"
"No."
"Good! Now let me explain the upcoming treatment plan to everyone."
Qin Feng turned on the projector, displaying the patient’s imaging,
"Currently, the patient has fractures in the fifth and sixth ribs, ruptured gallbladder, cardio-thoracic both external and internal, this goes to you,
Director Xiao from the burns department, you continue the clothing removal from the patient with me, excise necrotic burn tissue..."
Operating room...
The firefighter was placed on the operating table.
Outside the operating room, the firefighter’s newlywed wife was crying uncontrollably, her face pale.
Parents were also in tears, devastated, seeing their son’s wretched state through the glass, the mother fainted on the spot.
And at this moment,
Qin Feng and Director Xiao were cautiously separating the surface, applying iodine for disinfection continuously.
Director Zhang Fan from cardiothoracic and Director Sun from internal medicine also performed surgeries personally, removing the ruptured gallbladder and repairing rib fractures.
From afternoon to the surgery’s end, it took a full 7 hours, with night falling completely.
During this,
Apart from Qin Feng, all other directors formed two shifts, helping with clothing removal, freeing necrotic tissue.
Until Qin Feng removed his sterile gown, stepped out of the operating room.
The next 48 hours are the most crucial phase, ensuring patient’s safe transition to slowly enter recovery period.
The family waiting outside, seeing Qin Feng and several directors, had no strength to stand.
"Currently the patient’s condition is still in danger, but is relatively stable, don’t worry, we’ll do our best."
"Thank you, thank you!"
The patient’s father hearing this, couldn’t help but kneel down, if not for the daughter-in-law holding, his head would have hit the ground.
After all, this is their only son!
After having someone escort the father away, Qin Feng briefly explained to the patient’s wife that upcoming is a long six-month care period, suggesting emotional preparation.
The girl before him wiped away her tears, eyes long swollen like walnuts, yet stubborn.
After receiving the confirmation, Qin Feng was also considerably relieved, asking her to bring a photo of the firefighter.
Seeing her curious gaze, Qin Feng said nothing.
Half a year is should be enough...
People’s expectation is the survival, but no one cares about the survivor’s future living?
With 95% burns, there’s something more painful than survival....
