My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Chapter 998: Chapter 394: The First Accident—A Doctor Can’t Become Skilled Without Losing a Few Patients (3)

He directly took a picture of it and then sent it to Director Tang Fei.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Can directly called over.

If he guessed correctly, the hospital is currently communicating with the family. There’s no way Zhou Can would bear this wrongful accusation.

"Director Tang, just now I showed the child’s shoulder joint bone fragment to my teacher. After magnifying it thirty times, we discovered a rather clear fracture line. I’ve already sent you the picture on WeChat. Could you please take a look and see if this fracture line is consistent with the one found during the child’s examination at the Provincial Children’s Hospital?"

It was the first time encountering such a situation, and inevitably, Zhou Can felt a bit anxious.

He just wanted to quickly prove his innocence and resolve the issue.

"Okay, I understand. We are in the process of communicating with the family and will report this to them."

Her speech clearly wasn’t at ease.

Very likely, the family members were present at the scene.

The call was directly hung up, and Zhou Can could even faintly hear the family’s shouts.

At any hospital, after a medical accident occurs, the first thing is to protect the medical staff. They can’t be made to sweat and cry.

Doctors and nurses are fundamentally a high-risk profession, with risks everywhere.

If anything happens, and doctors are pushed to face the anger of the patient’s family, who would dare to become a doctor?

No matter what, the doctor’s intention when treating a patient is always good.

Risking great danger, saving patients against all odds; this alone is worthy of respect and support.

In this incident, if Zhou Can couldn’t prove his innocence, the hospital would likely just compensate a bit and apologize, letting it end like that.

If it’s a more unscrupulous hospital, there would be plenty of ways to deal with the family.

In many situations, patients and family members ultimately belong to the weaker side. A hospital represents a unit, while a patient is ultimately just an individual.

One person trying to battle a group—the result is predictable.

Unless there’s solid evidence and a professional lawyer involved in the lawsuit, the probability of losing is high.

"Is this the first time you’ve encountered a medical accident?"

Dr. Xu looked at Zhou Can calmly.

"Yes!"

Zhou Can nodded honestly.

"As long as we doctors are engaged in diagnostic and therapeutic work, it’s difficult to avoid the occurrence of accidents. In this matter, you can learn from it, be more cautious in your future practice, but don’t let it paralyze you and make you hesitant."

Dr. Xu’s voice was surprisingly gentle.

"Back then, I followed a senior doctor to perform surgery on a patient with an Aortic Dissection, who directly died on the operating table. That was my first time seeing someone die in surgery. I was so scared I didn’t even know how I walked out of the OR. Even years later, I still remember the guilt that filled my heart at that time. I always felt that we were the ones who killed him."

"Later, the director of the department called me to his office to reassure me that there was no need to be afraid. A doctor who hasn’t had a few patients die simply can’t hone his skills to the point of being fearless of all illnesses. At that time, I didn’t quite understand and dared not argue, so I just nodded. I’ve long forgotten what else the director told me then."

"Until later, when I experienced more, even to the point that there were patients who died on the operating table under my own scalpel! It was only then that I gradually understood the director’s teaching. Doctors need not have too many worries when treating patients, otherwise, it’s equivalent to shackling themselves, and their medical skills will never improve."

Dr. Xu shared his growth experiences poignantly, hoping to guide Zhou Can.
