Dr. Chung’s 90s

Tang Jiaren stood dumbfounded at the door of the operating room. Until now, he could not recover from the tragic situation of his daughter.

A series of rapid footsteps came from far and near, and soon a fashionable curly-haired woman stumbled towards Tang Jiaren.

She looked anxious, the delicate makeup on her face was stained with tears, and she was full of panic.

She rushed over and grabbed the clothes on Tang Jiaren's chest with both hands, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Where is my Tiantian? How is she?"

The woman's eyes were full of helplessness. She wanted to know the news about her daughter, but she was also afraid of hearing devastating words from his mouth. She was so fragile and pitiful at this moment.

Tang Jiaren was heartbroken. He hugged her hard and said in a hoarse voice:
"Tiantian has been sent to the operating room. With Dr. Zhong here, she will be fine. Dr. Zhong is the most powerful surgeon I have ever seen. She will save our Tiantian."

Tang Jiaren's ex-wife couldn't help but broke down and cried.

"How could this happen? She told me that she was going shopping with Yao Xing. Didn't Li Siqi go with her? Where is Li Siqi? How does she take care of the child?"

The last angry question seemed to find an outlet for his emotions.

She needed to find the culprit of this incident to bear her anger. Tang Jiaren's voice was choked with sobs. He didn't want to catch the murderer and give him a beating, but the most important thing at the moment was to save his daughter.

The two of them were like wounded beasts, licking each other's wounds helplessly.

Tang Jiaren sobered up a lot after Wang Xiumin made such a fuss. He hugged his ex-wife tightly and comforted her in a low voice:
"Don't worry, we'll wait for Tiantian to come out, and we'll settle the accounts one by one. I won't let anyone who harmed our daughter go."

He had never had such dark and terrifying thoughts, and he wanted to kill everyone who had harmed her daughter.

Wang Xiumin understood what he meant, and knew that her current collapse would not help. She tried hard to control her emotions to calm down, and kept telling herself that her daughter was still waiting for her to take care of her.

In the operating room, Zhong Yu's treatment continued, and the patient's injuries were far more serious than she expected.

She said in a heavy tone: "This is not a simple burn, it is an injury that includes both thermal burns and chemical corrosion. Judging from the patient's reaction, the sulfuric acid plating solution that was poured on the patient's face contained dichromic hydrochloric acid. "

The expression on Guo Pengfei's face became solemn when he heard this.

"This is really bad! She could have dichromate poisoning."

Zhong Yu nodded, her expression looking as ugly as ever.

"The patient's mouth and tongue are bruised, the bulbar conjunctiva is congested, the wound surface has changed like leather, and the catheterized urine is soy sauce color. He needs to be given plasma transfusion and rehydration immediately!"

When Tang Tiantian arrived, the situation was too urgent and there was not enough plasma prepared. Nurse Zhang immediately called the blood bank and asked them to send the plasma as quickly as possible.

Zhong Yu, while the patient was under general anesthesia, incised the eschar on her face and performed alkalizing urine diuresis and anti-infection treatments.

Guo Pengfei walked over quickly holding the newly released test sheet.

"Dr. Zhong, the patient's urine routine examination found three plus signs positive for proteinuria."

What does such an indicator mean? Everyone in the operating room understands that Director Tang's daughter's situation is really dangerous this time.

Zhong Yu said with an increasingly steady voice:
"Hemofiltration was performed after the operation, the dosage of antibiotics was adjusted, the amount of water intake was controlled, and the patient was immediately sent to the ICU."

Despite the emergency, everyone was operating in an orderly and step-by-step manner under Zhong Yu's command.

After coming out of the operating room, Zhong Yu didn't bother to explain to Tang Jiaren and rushed to the ICU while pushing people. The doctor Huang in charge there was already waiting.

As soon as she entered, she was immediately plugged into various machines. Zhong Yu said to ICU Doctor Huang:
"Patients need daily hemofiltration, washed red blood cells and human protein input. They must inhale oxygen. They also need to adjust electrolyte and acid-base disorders, systemic anti-infection, nutritional support and other treatments."

Dr. Huang encounters various critically ill patients in the ICU every day. He follows Dr. Zhong’s instructions and makes arrangements one by one.

Subsequent treatment requires full wound expansion + allogeneic skin coverage a few days after the injury. During this period, the urea and creatinine levels in the patient's urine must return to the normal range.

Dr. Huang didn't know the relationship between the patient and Director Tang. Zhong Yu waited for her condition to stabilize before whispering:
"This patient is Director Tang's daughter. Maybe Director Tang will come in personally to take care of her. I hope you can make it easier for him."

Director Tang's rank is there, and he is a medical worker himself. Having him take care of him can reduce the burden on other ICU staff and help the patient's recovery. Dr. Huang will naturally not stop it.

"Don't worry, Dr. Zhong, I understand what you mean. During this period, I will pay attention to the patient's nutritional support and systemic anti-infective treatment."

Zhong Yu smiled gratefully. She turned around and took a closer look at Tang Tiantian's condition. After confirming that her physical condition was stable, she walked out of the ICU.

In addition to Tang Jiaren and his ex-wife, there was also a strange couple waiting outside, with the same anxiety and sorrow on their faces.

Tang Jiaren rushed towards Zhong Yu. He almost fell down because he was too anxious. Fortunately, Zhong Yu helped him. At this moment, his hair was messy and he was very decadent.

"Zhong Yu, how is my daughter doing?"

Zhong Yu didn't know how to comfort her. At such a tragic age, the little girl suffered such a tragedy. She didn't know whether she could save her life.

Even if her life is saved, she will suffer unprecedented pain from the subsequent treatment, both psychologically and physically.

Zhong Yu said in as gentle a voice as possible;
"Tiantian suffered from sulfuric acid burns and dichromate poisoning."

Just such a sentence made Tang Jiaren's legs weak from fear.

Wang Xiumin supported him at a loss. Although she didn't understand what it meant, she knew from Tang Jiaren's reaction how serious her daughter's condition was.

Tang Jiaren opened his mouth several times, and it took a long time before he made a sound.

"How is my daughter's... condition?"

There is no need to hide Tiantian's current situation, and there is no way to hide it.

Zhong Yu said calmly and objectively:

"Tiantian now shows signs of chromium poisoning. The toxicity is absorbed into the bloodstream through her injured skin, which can cause secondary damage to internal organs, most notably the liver and kidneys."

Wang Xiumin on the side also understood the meaning of her words and asked blankly:
"Isn't Tiantian more than a sulfuric acid burn?"

Tang Jiaren's tears rolled down silently. He could not face his ex-wife's eyes.

Zhong Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain: "She also has chromium poisoning. Chromium poisoning refers to excessive chromium content in the blood and urine of the human body. In severe cases, it can cause liver damage, acute renal failure, anuria, and Death due to uremia, but Tiantian is far from that serious, don't worry." Wang Xiumin originally thought that the worst for her daughter would be disfigurement, but now she was told that her daughter's life might be lost. This news is devastating. It was so strong that she fainted.

When the Yao couple saw her falling, they quickly ran over to help her.

Tang Jiaren angrily pushed Secretary Yao's wife to the ground.

"I don't need your help. Please leave here. We don't want to see you for the time being."

Secretary Yao leaned over and lifted his wife Li Siqi up in a half-hug. He said in a calm voice:
"I can understand Director Tang's mood. This matter really happened because of our family. I'm really sorry for you. Our family is fully responsible for the child's treatment expenses. If you need help, you can call us at any time."

After saying that, he hugged his wife who was reluctant to leave and left. Zhong Yu didn't know this person, and she was not familiar with Haishi's leadership.

She had never heard of or seen Secretary Yao, so she didn't take it seriously.

Tang Jiaren had already passed the most difficult stage, and he forced himself to calm down.

After carrying his ex-wife into the duty lounge, he asked the nurse to take care of her more, and then said to Zhong Yu: "Dr. Zhong, I will apply to the dean for you to be the temporary director of the department. Recently, my focus will be on my daughter. I’ll worry about you at work.”

Zhong Yu doesn't care too much about his position in the hospital. Now that Director Tang puts his daughter first, there must be someone in the department who takes the responsibility.

"Don't worry, I'm here to take care of things in the hospital. I've also said hello to the ICU. You can go in and take care of Tiantian by yourself."

Tang Jiaren nodded gratefully, "I have to ask you to come for Tiantian's follow-up treatment. I will rest assured only if you come to treat her."

Zhong Yu agreed without hesitation, and she solemnly said:

"Thank you for your trust. First, help Tiantian get through the dangerous period. Saving her life is more important than anything else. I will do my best to help her recover later."

Although Tang Jiaren was half-dead by this sudden and unreasonable disaster, he still managed to cheer up.

His daughter's follow-up treatment requires his company and support. His ex-wife is fragile and helpless and only he can rely on him. He cannot fall.

"Thank you, Doctor Zhong. When Tiantian is well, let her treat you to something delicious."

Zhong Yu thought of the little girl's miserable appearance and laughed hard.

"Then I'll wait. Director Tang will disinfect first and do the sterile treatment before taking care of Tiantian."

Tang Jiaren nodded in agreement. Although he was a doctor, his mind was not enough when he was extremely sad, and he was no better than ordinary people.

Zhong Yu separated from Director Tang. As soon as he arrived at the department office, he saw Dean Liu coming with Secretary Yao from before.

Zhong Yu was a little confused, so she greeted politely: "Does the dean have any work arrangements?"

Dean Liu's usually cheerful face lost the smile, and he said in a gentle voice:
"I also know about Director Tang's daughter. He is low on energy right now. It's up to you to take the lead in the department."

Zhong Yu agreed to take over Director Tang, but there was no resistance at all.

"That's right. Director Tang doesn't want this to happen."

Dean Liu introduced to Zhong Yu again;
"This is Secretary Yao from our Hai City, and this is his wife Li Siqi. Something happened to the Tang family's child, and it has something to do with these two families, so I want to invite you to come and talk."

Li Siqi was the first to speak. She choked and said, "Originally, it was my daughter who was injured. The woman who threw acid was pestering my husband endlessly. My husband ignored her, so she focused on our daughter and kept following her. Knowing that we When I went shopping today, I followed my daughter with sulfuric acid and found the right opportunity to throw it on my daughter's face, hoping to completely destroy her. Who knew that this girl Tiantian would desperately pull my daughter away and block the sulfuric acid herself? Just afraid."

She was afraid that the one lying in the ward not knowing whether she was alive or dead was her daughter. Zhong Yu sighed. She couldn't say any words of relief. After all, the victim was not her daughter and her life or death was still uncertain.

But if she thinks about it from her perspective, she would rather someone else get hurt than see her own loved ones get hurt.

Secretary Yao patted his wife on the shoulder and comforted her at the right moment:

"We don't want something like this to happen, but now that it has happened, actively solving it is the most important thing at the moment."

Zhong Yu didn't know much about this couple, but the man's tone sounded very official.

"I wonder if you two came to me with the dean for something?"

Although this incident was caused by Secretary Yao, he himself did not make any principled mistakes. He was also a practical person.

Hearing that Zhong Yu was not someone who would flatter others, Secretary Yao asked bluntly:
"Is there any hope that the Tang family child can be cured?"

Zhong Yu frowned and said: "Based on the current situation, there is still hope, but the entire treatment process is complicated and time-consuming."

Secretary Yao nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he continued unceremoniously:

"Dr. Zhong thinks that with your ability, you can take on the responsibility of this child's attending physician. If you have any doubts, I can transfer the child to a better hospital in the capital."

Ha~ This is looking down on her ability, Zhong Yu asked displeasedly;
"When Secretary Yao made this decision, did he ask for the opinion of the patient's guardian? As far as I know, transfer requires the guardian's signature. You don't have this right yet, right?"

Secretary Yao didn’t notice that she had a bad temper, so he smiled and said;
"Don't get me wrong, Dr. Zhong. I'm not questioning your ability. After all, you are still young and don't have much clinical experience. I'm considering transferring the hospital to an experienced doctor to take over, so that you won't be under so much pressure."

Zhong Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said without any sign of weakness:

"The most capable plastic surgeon in the capital is my teacher, Professor Ni. He is one of the first batch of people in China who went abroad for training. He fully recognized my ability, and the president of the Affiliated Hospital of Shougang Medical University personally kept me in the hospital. I have served, but I refused due to personal reasons. If Secretary Yao doesn't believe it, you can call me and ask. You can also check my recent successful cases of related surgeries. These are all evidence to verify my ability."

Seeing that his expression remained unchanged, Zhong Yu continued:
"The most important thing is that the patient's family trusts me. He knows me better than you do and has a deeper understanding of my personal abilities. He can safely leave his daughter in my hands. You have no right to interfere with this."

How could Secretary Yao fail to hear the displeasure in Zhong Yu's words? He laughed, turned to Dean Liu and said, "Young people have real abilities, but they also have a bad temper!"

Dean Liu naturally faced Zhong Yu, he laughed and said:
"Young people have stronger abilities and stronger tempers. They are also front-line medical workers. They have to deal with so many injuries every day. They are stressed and nervous. Sometimes I have to coax them."

Secretary Yao was surprised and said, "It turns out that Dr. Zhong is really capable. Since you can rest assured that the patient will be left to her, there is no need for me to be such a bad person. Don't be angry, Dr. Zhong."

Zhong Yu never gets angry with irrelevant people, she said indifferently:
"I'm not angry. Even if you send people to the capital, Teacher Ni will follow my treatment advice. Maybe he can do something to send me to the capital for treatment. What's more, Tang Tiantian's body needs to pay attention to all aspects of the disease at all times. Due to the numerical change, she currently cannot survive to go to the capital.”

When it comes to presenting facts and reasoning, don't think that only official people like them will say that Zhong Yu has been in a teaching and research position for more than ten years. What kind of battle has he never seen? (End of chapter)
