Chapter 482: Surgery without Family Members

Remember [New] in one second!     In many cases, an ecmo means a life.

In the 8th rescue room, everyone felt a sense of joy after surviving a disaster.

The machine was functioning normally, and the girl's vital signs were stable.

Lu Chen was also in the rescue room, always watching the changes in the instrument's values.

For him, ecmo was also a new thing.

It was extremely difficult to play with such high-end medical equipment.

In the system mall, iabp, ecmo and other machines also have corresponding skill cards.

However, the price is extremely expensive, and they all require tens of thousands of gratitude points.

With Lu Chen's "financial resources", he can't afford to exchange them for the time being, and these skill cards are not what he urgently needs at the moment.

"Want to learn this machine?" Zhou Bin came to Lu Chen with a smile.

"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded. Since he couldn't exchange the skill card for the time being, it would be a good idea to learn directly from reality.

"Then Ren Feng will have to teach you." Zhou Bin said, "ECMO has just started in our hospital. Brother Feng learned it first and then taught it to us. Brother Feng came to the CCU to debug the machine, you just follow him and learn from him."

"Okay." Lu Chen smiled.

The teaching of the system is different from the teaching of real doctors.

Although the system is strict and meticulous, it lacks a bit of fireworks in reality.

...

CCU ward, nurse station.

"Hey, look at that graduate student just now, he looks so amazing."

A group of young nurses were chattering.

"Yes, even Doctor Ren couldn't puncture successfully, but he actually got it in with one needle."

"I heard that he has won many honors just now. This young graduate student is not simple."

...

Where there are women, there are gossips.

Lu Chen's outstanding performance also attracted the attention of everyone.

In many clinical departments, the head nurse is like a "matchmaker".

She controls a lot of social resources. Whenever she meets a new doctor or graduate student, she wants to match a marriage.

"Hey, Lu Chen, do you have a girlfriend?" The head nurse came to Lu Chen's side.

"Ah?" Lu Chen's old face blushed, "Head nurse, I, well, I don't have one yet..."

"That's great!" The head nurse narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Where is your hometown?"

"Not in Jinghua, my hometown is near Jiangcheng."

"Jiangcheng?" The head nurse was stunned, "It's a bit far, but it doesn't matter, Jiangcheng is more developed than ours, there must be many people willing to go there."

"Lu Chen, I have a relative's girl here, she is very beautiful, come add WeChat and get to know her."

Lu Chen: "..."

"Oh, by the way, she is not studying medicine, she is a teacher, so you won't be too busy in the future, and it will also be good for the growth of the child."

Lu Chen was stunned, has she thought about her future life?

"Head nurse, don't be like this..."

Lu Chen hurriedly laughed and tried to perfunctorily pass it off.

But the head nurse still asked for his WeChat number.

…

“The patient is coming!”

The security guard at the gate of the CCU shouted, and everyone’s heart tightened.

Lu Chen glanced at the medical team on the wall of the doctor’s office, “It’s our turn.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Bin stood up immediately.

Lu Chen, Gu Xinyue and Fatty Han followed closely.

The lineup of patients admitted to the CCU ward is so strong, because every patient may be in an acute and severe condition and need rescue.

At the gate of the CCU.

The emergency doctor pushed a flatbed cart.

On the flatbed, an old lady in a red coat lay on it.

“The patient has chest pain for 2 hours, and the ST segment of the precordial leads of the electrocardiogram is elevated. Consider acute myocardial infarction.”

The accompanying doctor of the emergency department said.

“Does the patient have no family members?” Zhou Bin frowned.

There was only one doctor and a nurse next to the flatbed cart, and no other accompanying personnel were seen.

“The patient’s family members are all out of town, and I helped her with the hospitalization procedures.” The nurse said.

"Well... let's push the patient in first."

...

The old lady is in good condition. The pain in her chest has eased. She is like a normal person now.

Fatty Cheng began to ask about the patient's medical history. The patient had diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.

In addition to these basic diseases, there is no history of any other diseases. Suddenly, she had a heart attack, which was unexpected by everyone.

"Hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia are all high-risk factors for myocardial infarction." Lu Chen said, "The patient has these basic diseases. Maybe he will have a heart attack one day. It's not surprising at all."

"But the patient has no family members in Jinghua, which is troublesome." Fatty Cheng frowned.

Patients with acute myocardial infarction need interventional surgery.

As long as it involves surgery, family members or guardians must be present and sign informed consent.

If there are no family members, once anything happens, it will be unclear.

"Auntie, when can your family members come here at the earliest?" Lu Chen said.

"Tomorrow afternoon."

Lu Chen: "..."

Come tomorrow, the daylily will be cold!

For patients with myocardial infarction, interventional surgery is required as soon as possible to open the coronary artery.

The earlier the surgery is done, the faster the blood vessels can be opened, and more myocardial tissue can be saved.

"Is there no family member in Jinghua?"

The aunt thought for a moment and said, "My husband's sister's nephew's uncle's son seems to be in Beijing. Is he okay?"

Lu Chen: "..."

The family members who come are preferably direct family members who can sign the informed consent form.

"If he can't do it, then there will be no more." Auntie shook her head.

Seeing this, Lu Chen could only reply to Zhou Bin: "Teacher Zhou, the patient's family will not arrive until tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Teacher Zhou frowned and said, "Intervention can be performed within 12 hours of the onset of acute myocardial infarction. Otherwise, you have to wait for elective intervention. If you come here tomorrow, it will be too late!"

…

Beside the hospital bed, the aunt heard Zhou Bin's words and said quickly: "Doctor, I agree to the operation! Since the sooner the better, let's start now. Even if something happens, I will never blame you!"

Zhou Bin hesitated.

It's not that Auntie blames them for this matter.

But if something happens, it is against the rules to have no family members present.

If a patient wants to sue the hospital, this is a must.

However, for the safety of the patient’s life, we cannot sit still and wait for death!

"Teacher Zhou, report it to the medical department?" Lu Chen suggested.

"Yes." Zhou Bin nodded, "Report it to the medical department first, and then you can record a video for me."

"Recording a video?" Lu Chen was stunned.

"Yes, you should call the medical department first."

…

Lu Chen called the medical department and reported the patient's condition.

Back in the CCU ward, Zhou Bin had already arrived at the patient's bed.

"Lu Chen, record all the communication between me and the patient, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net."

Zhou Bin handed his mobile phone to Lu Chen.

He had already turned on the camera and set it to video mode.

"good."

Next, Zhou Bin communicated with the patient normally before the operation.

Including the need for surgery, as well as risks.

The most common complications of interventional surgery for myocardial infarction are blood vessel rupture and obstruction, contrast agent allergy, and catheter poking into myocardial tissue, etc.

Zhou Bin communicated very carefully this time and explained all possible situations in detail.

Auntie is also a sensible person.

"Doctor, don't worry. There is no risk in surgery. But you are at Jinghua Second Hospital, and the cardiology department is so famous! I believe you, and I signed my consent for the surgery!"

After speaking, the aunt directly signed her name on the informed consent form for the surgery.

After signing, the aunt was quickly pushed to the interventional operating room.
