Great Medical System in a Veterinarian-Chapter 538 - 237: Life-and-Death Lifeline, 1-Second Countdown, First Close Call!
"Help! Come quick! Someone’s choking!"
The curly-haired girl immediately shouted.
The hotpot restaurant was crowded and noisy.
But in that instant, everyone fell silent.
All eyes turned towards the curly-haired girl.
Some were puzzled, some bewildered, and some terrified.
"What’s going on?"
Soon, two waiters ran over.
Along with an older man, who looked like the manager or owner.
"I’m not sure exactly what happened. My friend just ate a piece of beef tripe, and it was a bit hot, so she drank some water. But suddenly, she couldn’t speak—it’s like she’s choking!"
The curly-haired girl was now speaking incoherently in her excitement.
It’s understandable, as many people are bewildered when encountering such situations for the first time.
Especially when it’s your good friend, remaining calm is difficult.
"Ah! Quick, use the emergency treatment method! Is there any medical personnel here?"
At this moment, the manager shouted.
Meanwhile, staff attempted the Heimlich Abdominal Impact Method on her, and everyone noticed that the girl wearing the spaghetti strap top was already somewhat unconscious.
"Call 120!"
No one responded.
Instead, someone shouted directly to call 120.
"Calling 120 is necessary, but by the time the ambulance arrives, the girl might be gone. Everyone please shout outside, is there any medical personnel or medical student around? Our Heimlich Abdominal Impact Method might not be as standard as a medical student’s."
Another person spoke up.
Because when choking, the golden rescue time is only a few minutes.
An ambulance usually takes ten minutes to arrive.
By the time it gets there, in most cases, it’s too late.
"Right! There are so many people outside, surely there’s a medical professional!"
It’s the National Day holiday.
During this period, it’s vacation time.
And this area is already very popular, there must be medical personnel around.
"Is there any medical personnel! Someone’s choking here! Help!"
Soon, a few enthusiastic bystanders and the restaurant’s staff went outside and shouted loudly.
"Wow—!"
Moments ago, the noisy outside fell silent.
Everyone looked over, wanting to know what was happening.
Meanwhile, at another restaurant.
Wei Zixi was about to enter with Zhang Lingchuan and the others.
Suddenly, they heard someone shouting about fifty meters ahead.
"Choking? Zhang Shen, why don’t you go in first, let me check out what’s happening!"
They had already gotten a table, number 17.
The waiter was leading them to their seats.
But the shout caught Wei Zixi’s attention; he vaguely heard someone mention choking. As a medical worker, especially in emergency situations.
He felt an urge within him.
"Ma’am, please seat my two friends first, I’m a doctor, I’ll go and help!"
Wei Zixi left those words and ran toward the commotion.
"Ah? Oh... Then you two please go in first."
The female server was a bit puzzled.
But quickly nodded in agreement.
And guided Zhang Lingchuan and the others to sit inside.
"Alright, miss. We’ll go check out the situation too, as I’m an intern in the emergency department currently. We’ll be back shortly, is that okay?"
Seeing Wei Zixi run over, Zhang Lingchuan felt restless sitting there. It was better to go and see.
Why mention being an emergency intern instead of a veterinarian? Because those are both his identities, and when saving someone, why mention being a veterinarian.
"Yes, it’s fine. Number 17 table is reserved for you. You can come back for hotpot afterwards."
The server girl had also heard the shout for help earlier.
Their guests being doctors, it was reasonable to check it out.
If they were really chased away, leaving the position for others would be a foolish act, and they’d soon shut down.
"Thank you, let’s go, Wanqing."
Zhang Lingchuan led Song Wanqing, and they ran towards the bustling hotpot restaurant fifty meters away.
Perhaps because they found a medical personnel.
Those who had shouted for help were gone.
But many people were still gathered there to see what was wrong.
"I’m a doctor from the hospital’s emergency department, what’s the matter? Let me take a look."
Wei Zixi squeezed through the crowd, revealing his identity.
"Everyone, please don’t crowd. Make room for a rescue path!!"
The manager immediately shouted.
Currently, the girl’s condition was very poor.
Delaying even a second can be fatal.
Every second earlier is a ray of hope.
"Doctor, my friend seems to be choking on beef tripe, please take a look."
The curly-haired girl cried out as she saw the doctor.
Her friend’s hand still had color earlier, but now it was completely purple.
Even her lips turned a horrifying purple.
She had completely lost consciousness, clearly in critical danger.
"Alright, I can see that. It’s a classic case of foreign object-induced suffocation. I need two people to hold her, I’ll perform the Heimlich Abdominal Impact Method from behind, hopefully dislodging the object!"
Wei Zixi looked serious.
The current situation was very dangerous; the patient had completely lost consciousness.
They must have called an ambulance, but it might not arrive in time.
First, let’s see if we can clear the obstruction.
If successfully removed, we can proceed with cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
