Come on, Dr. Wu

Chapter 392: The Pitiable Side of Hateful People

The people around were also frightened by the old man. They did not dare to be careless and hurriedly hid away from him.

After all, if this gets involved, it might really make things worse for the family.

Wu Xiaofu hurried forward.

"Young man, don't be stupid. This is a liar. He has been hanging around here for a long time. He must be trying to scam you. If you dare to touch him, he will blackmail you."

A stall owner spoke up and reminded Wu Xiaofu that it was not the first day that the old man had been hanging around here. Many stall owners were familiar with him, but they all had different experiences, so the old man was probably not a lone wolf.

These people also hold the attitude that less trouble is worse than more trouble, so they can only turn a blind eye to it.

But today, seeing Wu Xiaofu about to do something stupid, a stall owner couldn't help but remind him.

Wu Xiaofu nodded upon hearing this, "Thank you, Auntie, but it seems that you are not lying this time."

He came to the old man's side, and although his face was on the ground, it did not affect Ming Chan's inspection.

After feeling the pulse with both hands, Wu Xiaofu's face changed. Gone?

It's not that the person is dead, it's that the pulse is gone. However, if he is not rescued quickly, I'm afraid he will die.

He quickly turned the old man over and began cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Another point is that the old man fell forward, which is inconsistent with common cases. When people fall, they will subconsciously fall backwards to protect themselves. Therefore, most of the people who fall down usually fall backwards.

Even when moving forward, one will subconsciously make some protective movements, such as protecting the face with hands.

But the old man in front of him had none of those.

That's why Wu Xiaofu felt that the old man didn't seem to be lying this time, but rather something really happened to him. Now, it turned out to be true. He didn't know what hidden illness the old man had that caused his heart to stop and he stopped breathing.

While performing cardiopulmonary compression with both hands, Wu Xiaofu also reminded the people around him to call 120 for a doctor.

The people watching nearby also realized at this time that the old man did not seem to be fake. When it comes to real patients, the Chinese people are still very kind-hearted, and many people rushed to help contact the hospital.

Wu Xiaofu didn't have any good solution at this time. The old man's family was not around, and he didn't know much about the old man's situation. He couldn't accurately judge the old man's problem at this time. Moreover, any method was useless for the old man.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation saved the old man's life, and medical staff sent him to the hospital for emergency treatment. Buying time is the most important thing.

The medical staff arrived very quickly, after all, it was right next to the First Affiliated Hospital. However, due to the tunnel, the car could not get in, so the medical staff could only move the cart down.

Wu Xiaofu was still performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation at this time.

Whoosh!

This was already the fourth cycle. Suddenly, Wu Xiaofu felt the patient's heart beating and he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was not destined to die.

"Director Wu!"

There was no medical staff who didn't know Wu Xiaofu among the emergency department staff, and they all hurried to greet him. Wu Xiaofu nodded and pointed at the old man on the ground and said.

"He suddenly fell down ten minutes ago and lost consciousness. His heart and breathing stopped. I performed CPR on him. His heart and breathing have recovered, but I don't know his exact condition yet. Please rush him to the hospital."

After saving the patient, Wu Xiaofu, as the first attending physician, could not just go home and ignore the patient, so he had to return to the hospital.

After being given oxygen and receiving treatment, the patient's breathing became more stable along the way.

Emergency department.

Duan Hao was also a little speechless when he saw Wu Xiaofu returning. "What kind of physique do you have? You can even be attacked by this."

Yes, Duan Hao used moves, not touch.

He felt that this was Wu Xiaofu's fault. There were many scammers and thieves in that tunnel, but he had never seen any doctor being blackmailed. But Wu Xiaofu happened to encounter not only one scammer, but he also happened to encounter a scammer who fell to the ground and needed emergency treatment.

"Then what can I do? How? What's the situation?"

"Dilated cardiomyopathy. I have notified the cardiac surgery and cardiology departments to come for a consultation. It is not your specialty, so you should go back first."

Heart disease!
Wu Xiaofu was also stunned when he heard this. This old man was suffering from dilated cardiomyopathy, but he still came out to cheat people. He was really dedicated. You know, the symptoms of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy basically gradually worsen. Their physical conditions are not good to begin with, and it is good enough that they can take care of themselves. How could they have the energy to cheat people?

I don’t know whether this is the first time for this old man or he has had this problem before.

The progression of symptoms of dilated cardiomyopathy will vary depending on the age of onset. Moreover, the body will rapidly deteriorate due to the progression of dilated cardiomyopathy. Therefore, this old man may not necessarily be an old man. He may even be younger.

"Have you contacted the family?"

The old man can’t even provide his medical history now, so his family members still have to be called in.

"I'm still in contact. Go quickly. I'll send you news when I have it."

Duan Hao actually wanted to protect Wu Xiaofu. After all, the old man was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy, and the first person he came into contact with before he fell was Wu Xiaofu. If the old man really blackmailed Wu Xiaofu, even if he could explain it clearly, he would still be in trouble.

Now, Wu Xiaofu just had the incident of drinking glucose, which has negative effects. Duan Hao thinks Wu Xiaofu should avoid contact with it as much as possible.

Wu Xiaofu understood Duan Hao's meaning after hearing what he said. Since he couldn't help, Wu Xiaofu didn't stay any longer.

After returning home, Sarilang had already prepared a table full of dishes.

While we were eating, Duan Hao's message came.

But after watching it, Wu Xiaofu felt a little sad.

The dilated cardiomyopathy is not a new onset. The disease has progressed to a certain extent. Duan Hao thinks that this old man is at this stage, but he still comes out to cheat people. He is somewhat dedicated. By the way, he cannot be called an old man, as the patient is only 56 years old this year.

It is true that due to the illness, I have aged prematurely.

It has been several years since he was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. At the beginning, he insisted on taking medication and receiving standardized treatment. However, after his son was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy, the old man stopped taking medication. The family is not that wealthy, and the symptomatic drugs for dilated cardiomyopathy are not cheap.

Before, it was his son who earned money to support him. Now, his son's condition is progressing rapidly and he can no longer take care of him as before. The old man naturally knows whose life to save, so after stopping the medication, he started to earn money to provide his son with medicine.

But making money is not that easy, especially given his physical condition and age.

It was quick to make money by cheating, so the old man got into this business.

Wu Xiaofu was a little sad when he heard these words. What kind of thing is this? The liar is hateful, but after hearing this story, he feels a little pitiful.

shook his head.

"Go ahead and get treatment. The medical expenses can be transferred from the fund."

Now that Wu Xiaofu's fund has been officially established and some work has been completed, the fund can be officially put into use. It was originally used for patients who have difficulty paying their own medical expenses. No matter whether the old man was a liar before, he is just a patient now. What's more, if he is not saved, his son may have no one to take care of him.

In this case, of course we have to rescue.

However, dilated cardiomyopathy cannot be cured just because you want to. As a chronic terminal illness, it can only cause patients to die in despair.

Duan Hao didn't say much after hearing this, he actually meant the same thing.

The old man had regained consciousness at this time, but the first words he said after regaining consciousness were to ask the doctor not to save him because he had no money to pay for the medical bills. If he was saved, he would still owe a large sum of medical bills. What would happen to his son?
"Oh, by the way, I lied, let the police arrest me."

The old man has actually thought it through. Next time, if he is really in trouble, he will take the initiative to turn himself in and become a criminal. In this way, the police can't just ignore him. According to what he has inquired, the medical expenses will be paid by the Public Security Bureau.

Duan Hao didn't know what the old man was thinking. "Your medical expenses have been paid by the charity fund. Just cooperate with the treatment."

Charity fund!

The old man was a little surprised when he heard this, and he didn't know which charity fund was so kind, but it was good that someone helped pay for it.

However, this money was a bit of a waste for him.

"Doctor, I don't need the fund's help. My son does. He is also a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy. Can you talk to the fund and ask them not to save me but to help my son instead?"

After hearing that the old man was a liar and had cheated Wu Xiaofu, some people in the emergency department were still a little indifferent to him. But now after hearing this, everyone no longer had any other emotions. He was just a father who wanted to save his son. How could they blame him too much?

What's more, they are just medical staff and the trial is not their business.

The old man found out the next day that the owner of the fund that saved his father and son was Wu Xiaofu. Thinking of how he had cheated Wu Xiaofu in the tunnel yesterday, the old man felt a little regretful. As soon as he felt a little better, he wanted to struggle to find Wu Xiaofu to thank him.

Unfortunately, the people in the emergency department couldn't let him leave.

Moreover, Jiang Bei also told him that Wu Xiaofu was undergoing surgery, and it was likely that no one would be able to see Wu Xiaofu outside the operating room that day.

Wu Xiaofu has no idea how many liver cancer surgeries he has performed, but this one is definitely the most difficult one he has ever encountered.

It’s not about how advanced the liver cancer is, it’s just a patient with liver cancer metastasis to the bile duct. Wu Xiaofu planned to perform radical surgery on the patient before the operation.

In this type of surgery, the patient's condition was considered minor, so Wu Xiaofu didn't care too much about it.

Only after cutting it open did Wu Xiaofu realize how tricky it was.

The liver was like tofu dregs and would break into pieces if touched. Wu Xiaofu didn't understand how such a liver could still be functional.

Before performing liver cancer surgery, the patient's liver function must be evaluated first.

If the liver function of an average patient does not even reach grade C, then there is no point in performing radical surgery, and perhaps a liver transplant is the only option.

However, this patient's liver function is still within the range acceptable for radical surgery.

Generally speaking, in this case, the patient's liver quality is still good.

Who could have thought that today would really give Wu Xiaofu a shock. With the quality of the liver being of this quality, even with Wu Xiaofu's skills, he couldn't guarantee a 100% success rate.

After the liver cancer lesion is removed, suturing is performed. At this moment, the needle and thread are not just needles and thread, but clearly sharp weapons.

The sutures passed through the patient's liver, and all that was brought down were pieces of liver tissue.

These liver tissues can barely maintain their shape without any external force, but once there is external force, they become a complete mess.

Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for is that the patient's liver did not betray him like a work of art that would shatter if a piece of it was moved.

"Boss, what should I do?"

Peng Xia understood Wu Xiaofu's current predicament very well. Unless a god came, no one could do anything about this operation.

The patient already had a history of cirrhosis and severe ascites.

Many organs in the abdominal cavity are soaked in ascites, and the patient's liver condition is obviously related to this. This is a patient who receives treatment irregularly. According to the patient's narration, he was very stubborn before and was unwilling to come for treatment no matter how severe the disease progressed.

This time, the children forced us to come.

It can be seen that this illness was really delayed.

"There is no other choice but to get a liver transplant."

It has come to this. Even if he has superb suturing skills and can sew up the patient's liver, given the quality of the patient's liver, it will not last long after the operation. There will be a lot of follow-up problems. The success of the operation can only be a current thing.

You might suddenly suffer from liver failure and die.

The only way to prolong the patient's survival and eliminate this hidden danger is liver transplantation.

Fortunately, the patient's family did a liver matching, and the patient's son was also a match. Coincidentally, the patient's family had asked Wu Xiaofu in the outpatient clinic before, whether after the operation, the remaining liver would not be able to maintain the body's functioning and would need a liver transplant.

Wu Xiaofu gave a direct affirmative answer. There was no need to ask whether it was possible or not. He just said it would definitely happen.

After all, there are too many factors that damage the patient's liver, such as hepatitis B, cirrhosis, cancer cells and so on.

After hearing this, the patient's family directly requested for a liver matching. He knew that if that day really came, it would be impossible to wait for a liver, and if he wanted to save his life, perhaps only his own liver could do it. This time he happened to be in the hospital and his father could also be hospitalized, so it would be better to do it together to be prepared.

This son is indeed filial.

Even though many of them are relatives, such as father and son, mother and daughter, etc., when the time comes to need a liver transplant, perhaps the parents are willing to give their children a liver transplant, but not many children are brave enough to stand up and donate their own liver to their parents.

Moreover, they all have their own families, and many people would advise them that it is not worth it no matter how you look at it, to exchange a young life for the lives of their loved ones who may not have a future and who won’t have long to live.

What's more, even the parents might not agree. It is rare to see someone as determined and cooperative as this patient's son.
