Chapter 1258: Chapter 495: Surge in Experience Points from Compassion, Director Xue Set Up (Part 3)
"At that time, the audience held a deep disdain for that Japanese cardiothoracic expert’s skill. They criticized the expert for not being able to perform even a basic heart stent surgery. When I took over the patient, I did indeed lack sufficient experience in interventional surgery, and without having seen the patient’s cardiovascular imaging results, I prematurely suggested that a vascular stent surgery could solve the problem. Now, after seeing the imaging results, it’s clear that it’s impossible. Isn’t this equivalent to slapping my own face?"
She is now caught in a difficult position.
As the department director of Tuya Cardiothoracic Surgery and a gold-medal chief physician, she’s going back on her word.
At first, she said it could be treated, then later said it couldn’t be.
This is not merely a matter of being laughed at. It could potentially destroy the good image of Tuya Cardiothoracic Surgery and even damage the reputation of Tuya Hospital.
"Here’s what we’ll do: don’t panic yet. I’ll come over and check the situation after my round in Pediatrics. In the meantime, arrange for the patient to undergo all necessary tests. For such patients, there’s ample justification to initiate defensive medical measures. It’s better to avoid any omissions in diagnosis than to worry about saving the patient’s money."
Zhou Can, standing from a doctor’s perspective, actually despises such patients who don’t respect medical personnel.
This time, the person being grilled is Director Xue Yan.
Next time it could be another doctor, or even Zhou Can himself.
"Knowing he was secretly livestreaming the entire consultation process, I had already initiated defensive medicine. Unfortunately, I realized it a bit too late," Director Xue Yan expressed her regret. "I’m particularly afraid that because of this matter, the Cardiothoracic Surgery department, which we’ve worked so hard to build up, will collapse again."
"Sister Yan, don’t be afraid. With me here, we can face it together. Together, our strength is invincible, and we can overcome any obstacles!"
Zhou Can seemed quite calm.
The situation has already happened, so the only thing left to do is to find a solution.
When men face danger or difficulties, very few choose to retreat. They just grit their teeth and charge forward.
"Dr. Zhou, Dr. Zhou, Director Zhuang has a child patient with cyanotic complexion, possibly due to a foreign object obstructing the throat. Director Zhuang is asking you to hurry over and take a look."
"Okay!"
Without another word, Zhou Can immediately got up and walked out.
"Sorry, please wait a moment! There’s an emergency over there."
"No problem, my son just has a cold and a fever; waiting a little longer is no issue," the child’s mother said kindly, fully understanding Zhou Can.
"Thank you!"
Zhou Can swiftly jogged to Director Zhuang’s clinic, and indeed saw an infant about eleven months old.
Director Zhuang specializes in neonatology and primarily treats infants under one year old.
Occasionally, he also treats children who are two or three years old.
In medicine, many doctors also refer to children under three years old as infants and toddlers.
It must be said here that the law stipulates that one is not considered an adult until 18 years old. However, humans develop reproductive capabilities around thirteen or fourteen years old for females. Sometimes it can even be as early as twelve years old.
Males develop slightly later, truly becoming reproductively capable around fifteen or sixteen years old.
In ancient times, girls could marry at thirteen.
Especially during times of war, rulers would increase population by stipulating that if a girl hadn’t married by the age of thirteen, her family would face doubled taxes and labor duties each year.
Zhou Can noticed the baby’s parents were in a state of helpless panic, while the baby’s grandmother was wiping tears beside them, criticizing her daughter-in-law.
