Oncology Physician Life

Chapter 9 Chapter 08 Cancer Prevention Physical Examination

The outpatient clinic on Monday was particularly chaotic. Although the time for diagnosis and treatment was at 8 o'clock, the outpatient hall was already full of patients who came to register and see a doctor from around [-] o'clock in the morning.

Sixteen Departments of Oncology In the tumor hospital that is divided into specific parts, different tumors need to be assigned to different departments. There are more than 30 departments from medical oncology, oncology surgery, tumor radiotherapy, head and neck surgery, breast surgery to urology. There are 32 consulting rooms on the first to third floors of the outpatient building. Among them, the most spacious and brightest third-floor consulting room is reserved for the tumor surgery department of the ace department, and the departments such as gynecology, anesthesiology, traditional Chinese medicine and pediatrics are assigned to Outpatient wing.

At exactly 9 minutes before 5 o'clock, a taxi turned around the circle and stopped in front of the outpatient building.The driver's window was half down, a refreshing warm wind blew, and a pair of the latest Tiffany high-heeled shoes stepped on the steps that still had water.

Afterwards, a slim figure in a white lady's suit and black flared trousers stepped out of the car.The glass walls at the exit of the outpatient building reflected the dazzling figure of a woman, with long black and smooth hair hanging behind her, delicate and glamorous.

After paying the taxi fare, Pei Xiaonan ordered another iced Americano at the convenience store on the side of the outpatient building. The sauce-colored coffee was mixed with ice cubes, and it made a "click" sound after being inserted into the straw.

In the rest area of ​​the lobby on the first floor, in addition to the triage table surrounded by patients, there are also LED display screens hanging high up. Advertisements, or milk powder promotions for baby care, wherever the eyes glance, these advertisements are conveying the term "girlpower" (female power) to the audience, and they all tell women that if you want to become an independent woman, you have to buy us The product.

Coincidentally, last week was Pei Xiaonan's 33rd birthday. At that time, she also faced a choice similar to bread and love. An elderly woman.At that time, Pei Xiaonan was just promoted to the post of deputy director of the tumor research laboratory in the hospital, and the director-general of the research and scientific research cooperation group of the affiliated hospital, presiding over and coordinating the scientific research work of the whole hospital.

Since she graduated from university at the age of 22 and worked in a cancer hospital, she encountered countless multiple-choice questions. If a woman wants to go further in the workplace, she must constantly make choices and make trade-offs, just like upgrading. Strange, if you don't pay attention, the game may end.

Just like when she graduated, there were two paths in front of her. One was to work in the Department of Hematology, starting as an intern, and then going through resident, chief resident, attending, deputy chief physician, chief physician, and then promoted to director of the department. To survive 20 years.

But she is also lucky. She chose another shortcut, taking the path of teaching. She first worked in a cancer research institute in Shanghai, and was later introduced to the medical laboratory of the First Affiliated Cancer Hospital because of her outstanding scientific research results. In the hospital, Pei Xiaonan determined her career goals very early on.

Seven years later, she hopes that at the age of 7, she can be promoted to the position of director of the research department and solve family problems by the way.However, she has forgotten an unbreakable law of life. Life is full of uncertainties, and accidents always come when you don't expect them.

Just as she continued to walk towards the elevator with the ice cream in her hand, Zhang Xiaoyun, the pharmaceutical sales manager of Saman Technology Company, walked quickly from the rest area and stood in front of the elevator with her.

There are six elevators leading to the sixth floor, and there are scattered people standing in front of the other five elevators. Zhang Xiaoyun chose to stand with her.She was really annoyed by him and didn't want to talk to him in this kind of place.

As the pharmaceutical sales manager of Saman Technology Company, Zhang Xiaoyun is also the fastest promoted sales manager in the company. It can be said that he has no unsalable medicine in his hand. You know, among all the medicines sold to medicine, the most expensive The anti-cancer drugs belonged to the oncology department. In order to promote the new drugs that have been on the market for nearly five years to the medical research laboratory, he worked hard to facilitate this cooperation, but he unexpectedly bumped into Nan in front of the deputy director of the laboratory. wall.

He held in his hand the new drug brochures of Novartis that have been launched in China in the past five years, and handed them to her: "Deputy Director Pei, take a look at our brochure. If these new drugs are introduced into the laboratory of your hospital, even Extending it to your oncology department will definitely bring good news to your patients."

Pei Xiaonan ignored him, the employee's exclusive elevator just arrived, she swiped her card and pressed to the 6th floor, Zhang Xiaoyun stood outside the elevator and looked at her motionless.She pressed the door close button mercilessly, and at the moment when the elevator doors were about to close, Zhang Xiaoyun squeezed her feet in black leather shoes between the elevator doors, looked at her and said, "Director Bi of the Medical Department and the hospital Vice President Tao has agreed to hold a meeting to discuss the introduction of our company's anti-cancer drugs, and as long as Deputy Director Pei can be a favor at the meeting, we promise to give you..."

"I've made it very clear to your Saman technology agent before! There's nothing to talk about between us." Pei Xiaonan reminded him in a cold voice.

The elevator door closed quickly, and Zhang Xiaoyun got a bad nose. He was a little distracted looking at the rising elevator. He had never seen such a person who could not wink and be flexible, but she was still the deputy director of the laboratory. She is the director-general of the scientific research cooperation group of the whole hospital, and the introduction of new drugs from the laboratory must not avoid her.

The elevator quickly reached the 6th floor. Pei Xiaonan sipped the iced coffee in the cup, waiting for the clock-in machine to read the information. When she heard that the clock-in was successful, she had just finished her last sip and threw the empty cup into the trash next to her. Bucket, walked into the office.

The female assistant Song Qian had been waiting in the office for a long time, holding a tablet computer in her hand. After seeing Pei Xiaonan come in, she gave a brief report on today's work schedule, "Sister Pei, the latest centrifugal sedimentation device imported by the blood test department has been put into operation. It’s used, I need you to take a look here, if the data is normal, our laboratory will order this new model, and there will be a meeting at the medical department in the afternoon, and you need to attend.”

Pei Xiaonan took off her suit jacket and high heels, and changed into a white coat and blue hole shoes.She took off the rubber band on her wrist, stroked the loose hair at the back of her head, and skillfully tied it into a ponytail.She glanced out the floor-to-ceiling windows. Under the clear and cloudless sky, the newly built experimental research building reflected its majesty like a giant white tower on the artificial lake.

She turned around, accidentally looked at Song Qian's cancer prevention medical examination package coupons on her desk, picked it up and asked curiously, "This is it?"

Song Qian said helplessly: "It's not Deputy Director Qi of the oncology department. Other departments in other departments either give shopping cards or donkey-hide gelatin gift boxes on Women's Day on March 1th. Our oncology department does this every time. The nurses below I dare not speak out against the female doctors. Is it because Deputy Director Qi cooperates with the medical examination center next door, and every time I give some anti-cancer medical examination package coupons, let everyone go to the other side to take care of the business. Last time, Dr. Liu from the internal medicine department , I just gave this cancer prevention experience package coupon to my father, the old man went to that medical examination center, and was tricked into getting a full-body PET-CT, the price is almost [-] yuan, what a scam!"

Pei Xiaonan looked at the promotional slogan on the anti-cancer physical examination package, "If you love her, send her for PET-CT!" Almost laughing, she stuffed the physical examination voucher into her pocket, turned and walked out of the office.

The laboratory is on the 7th floor. Pei Xiaonan pushed open the door of the laboratory and saw the centrifugal precipitator with round tubes in the center. A pungent smell of blood rushed into the nostrils.

The examiner is holding a glass tube containing blood, standing in front of the centrifugal sedimentator, putting the blood together with the test tube into the centrifuge, closing the heavy lid, and pressing the switch.In an instant, the machine made a deafening sound, with a rotation speed of 1 times per minute.After a while, something as clear as water flowed out of the test tube protruding from the center of the centrifuge. This was the decomposed serum.Wait until the solid components in the blood settle down and the upper part is completely transparent.

Pei Xiaonan took the serum report from the inspector, which showed a serum amylase value of 269.The normal serum bile powder enzyme value of the human body should be between 64 and 128, which is obviously on the high side.

She handed back the inspection report and said to the inspector: "The same sample, use the old machine to test it again to confirm whether it is a problem with the new machine. If the value is still high, please contact the equipment department."

Walking out of the examination room, Pei Xiaonan just turned around and saw Qi Dahua, the deputy director of the oncology department, handing out cancer prevention physical examination vouchers to the nurses at the nurse's desk, "Let me tell you, this is a good thing. This cancer prevention physical examination package is what I found inside my friend It was taken out at the price, and there are tumor markers, PET-CT, next-generation gene sequencing and other tests in it, you can take it back and give it to relatives at home, and you can get a super low internal discount!"

The little nurses look at me and look at her. Due to the face of Deputy Director Qi Dahua, they can only bite the bullet and accept it. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that this is Qi Dahua using the guise of a festival to lure the medical examination center opposite. There is still a commission if the business is not guaranteed, and Qi Dahua saves the benefits that should have been paid on Women's Day on March [-], killing two birds with one stone.

"Hey, Director Qi is giving out charity benefits?" Pei Xiaonan walked over with a smile.

Qi Dahua looked up to see her, and showed a smiling face: "Today's wind brought our garden flowers here. How about it, Deputy Director Pei also has one?"

Pei Xiaonan took the physical examination package coupon, which had the name of the medical examination center next door written on it. She frowned and said, "Isn't that right, Director Qi? This PET-CT and tumor marker detection should be for cancer patients and a very small number of ultra-high-risk groups." Useful, right? Physical examination screening for healthy people is ineffective!"

"How is it possible!" Qi Dahua's face changed slightly, "My buddy, their company's year-end award is to give outstanding employees a PET-CT cancer prevention medical examination package. What kind of travel agency, Japan four-day tour, also specially launched this benefit, go to Japan to do PET -CT is still a special tourism project of a travel agency."

Naturally, Pei Xiaonan could see Qi Dahua's guilty conscience, and shook his head: "I do cancer research, and I don't believe Director Qi's words. To do PET, you need to inject reflective substances into your body so that it can be developed on the instrument. CT has strong radiation, which can cause damage to human DNA. Doing a PET is equivalent to being exposed to the sun for 10 years by the sea! Nowadays, these medical examination centers are ignorant of their conscience in order to make money. People who don’t have cancer have developed cancer.”

Qi Dahua coughed in embarrassment, "Well, Deputy Director Pei..."

"Director Qi, I remember the last meeting. Didn't Liu Chong, the director of the oncology department, say that on Women's Day on March [-], there will be a wave of benefits for the lesbians in the hospital. Could it be this cancer prevention package physical examination coupon? It’s really this, I’m going to have a good talk with the director! You gays can’t deprive us lesbians of the benefits of Women’s Day on March [-]!”

"Well, that's definitely not possible!" Qi Dahua hurriedly took out his mobile phone and said, "The welfare of our department this year's March [-]th Women's Day is to issue food and beverage vouchers. When it comes to Corey, I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

Seeing Director Qi running away, several nurses laughed and gave Pei Xiaonan a thumbs up: "Sister Pei, you are the real warrior in our department. Everyone said that Director Qi met you , just like when a mouse sees a cat, you dare not give him face."

Pei Xiaonan smiled, turned around and walked upstairs.Song Qian followed her, her face full of worry, "Sister Pei, if you don't give Director Qi face like this, will he..."

"Could it be something?" Pei Xiaonan raised his eyebrows, "Could it be possible that he still dares to sue me at the dean? Sue me for what? Sue me for justice, or sue me for exposing that he took advantage of the medical examination center and ran around here to flicker My colleagues go for PET physical examination? The reason why China has become a hard-hit area of ​​excessive medical treatment is because these unscrupulous businessmen advertise and fool the common people. A normal person becomes a cancer patient.”

Song Qian followed with a smile, "By the way, Sister Pei, at the meeting in the medical department in the afternoon, I heard that Dr. Li Xiaojun from our department recommended it to Director Bi of the medical department. It seems to be the agent of Saman Technology Company, which has been listed in the domestic market for the past five years. Several anticancer drugs."
