Chapter 474: Chapter 248: Show Off and Run Away!
Lu Cheng personally escorted the patient with the nursing team into the CT room and then transferred the patient directly into the emergency operating room.
The patient’s condition falls under the ultra-emergency category. While the patient still has vital signs, after Lu Cheng reported to the general duty officer, the hospital initiated an all-hands consultation mode.
The all-hands consultation requested by the general duty officer was broadcasted throughout the hospital.
As a result, by the time Lu Cheng pushed the patient into the operating room, senior consulting duty doctors from ICU, Gastrointestinal Surgery, Hepatobiliary Surgery, and Cardiovascular Medicine had all started arriving at the emergency operating room one after another.
Meanwhile, Deputy Chief Anesthesiologist Hu Yaya came in with quick steps, just like a chattering person, and immediately took over the patient’s airway management, starting to quip: "At first glance, this looks like a car or bike crash."
"Grown adults like this, don’t they know to be more careful? It’s clearly frozen everywhere, as if they couldn’t see it."
Nobody paid attention to Hu Yaya’s complaints. The ICU and Cardiovascular Medicine people had already crowded around the monitor, observing the patient’s blood test results while watching his monitor data and various vital signs, starting to discuss how to raise blood pressure and the possible surgical risks.
The consulting deputy chief physician from Hepatobiliary Surgery was Song Daoneng, whom Lu Cheng had met a few times before. Upon entering and seeing the patient’s abdomen opened, he remarked, "It must be Emergency Department’s Lu Cheng on duty today; only he has such courage."
"Day by day, who knows what he’s thinking, just wanting to keep us on our toes."
Lu Cheng was about to brief them on the condition, but when Song Daoneng said this, he just coughed and continued reporting: "Director Song, the current diagnosis for the patient is superior mesenteric artery injury and rupture of the pancreatic head."
"In the emergency rescue room, I performed corresponding arterial clamping to stop the bleeding..."
Hearing this, Song Daoneng turned to look at Lu Cheng promptly.
Honestly, upon entering the operating room, everyone wore green scrubs and disposable surgical masks; without serious observation, one couldn’t distinguish one person from another.
How did Song Daoneng know that among the crowd was a young man named Lu Cheng? He immediately said, "Xiao Lu, keeping us on our toes is good; it promotes our progress!"
Talking behind people’s backs easily offends them.
Saying it face-to-face, on the contrary, is easier to explain: "Today you’ve got us all working overtime together; Xiao Lu, you surely don’t mind me grumbling a bit, do you?"
Lu Cheng shook his head: "Director Song, shall we sterilize and drape together? Let’s get the surgery done as soon as possible."
"You’re going up too?" Deputy Chief of Gastrointestinal Surgery Zhang Zhong said slyly.
Apparently, Zhang Zhong, whom Lu Cheng didn’t recognize, knew Lu Cheng and had a rather deep impression of him.
Lu Cheng had previously brought many cases into the operating room from the rescue room, and there were quite a few patients that couldn’t be saved in Zhang Zhong’s hands.
Being pulled into overtime and failing, surgical staff would naturally try to find out the reasons.
Song Daoneng said, "Brother Zhang, you might not know, Lu Cheng was directly appointed by our Dean Song to follow surgeries in the operating room with deputy senior rights."
"It’s a special approval by the State Health and Health Commission as an ’Emergency Guardian.’
Zhang Zhong was stunned and blurted out: "Wasn’t this ’Emergency Guardian’ supposed to be awarded for that Feng County incident?"
"The title can be reused." Following Vice Dean Yao Xin, Song Daoneng was well aware of the internal operations.
Moreover, since Song Daoneng was a confidant of Yao Xin, and knowing Yao Xin’s strong support for Lu Cheng, he had to make it clear about the permissions granted to Lu Cheng by Yao Xin.
Pancreatic rupture hook, covered with a giant hematoma!
While replenishing blood volume, also performing an emergency abdominal surgery!
This is almost impossible to save; the chance of death exceeds ninety-nine percent, with only a rare few patients having the chance to be rescued...
Lu Cheng had already gone out to wash his hands, and after quickly washing and disinfecting them, he came back in to start sterilizing.
Upon entering, Song Daoneng and Zhang Zhong had finished gossiping about Lu Cheng and also prepared the instruments needed, standing by the operating table, their faces serious, their eyes peculiar.
Others didn’t understand Lu Cheng’s previous operations in the emergency rescue room, but being from Hepatobiliary Surgery, Song Daoneng watched carefully; now his tone was particularly conflicted: "Dr. Lu, are you so distrustful of our surgical colleagues?"
"Do you have to dissect this case and feed it to us piece by piece?"
Song Daoneng, being a professional general surgeon, had previously seen the emergency hemostasis patients done by Lu Cheng, where Lu stopped the key bleeding points but ignored the minor details.
For instance, in such a case, if Lu Cheng performed a spleen artery clamping, it could prevent the majority of bleeding.
But this time, Lu Cheng not only clamped the spleen artery, but even tackled the branches of the superior mesenteric artery.
Lu Cheng brushed while disinfecting: "Director Song, you misunderstood; this patient’s condition is quite special. Upon hospital entry, the blood pressure was only 70. If the bleeding weren’t completely stopped, he would have shock and cardiac arrest already."
The anesthesiologist Hu Yaya, as if discomforted by not talking, chimed in: "Now, after norepinephrine infusion, the high pressure is only at 72, and the blood type hasn’t come out yet."
"Call the lab and urge them infinitely..."
"Just called," said the circulating nurse.
"Call and urge again; later, urge the blood bank until the blood arrives." Hu Yaya’s voice was crisp yet firm, leaving no room for sloppiness.
Song Daoneng and Zhang Zhong quickly went to wash their hands and put on scrubs, preparing to take over the surgery.
