Chapter 81 Taking Action to Save People [2nd update, ask for recommendation tickets]
"I have just one request, once I start the treatment, only Dr. Qin can be present. And when others come later and ask, just say that it was Dr. Qin who treated the patient, and I was just assisting. You must promise me this!" Ge Dongxu said with a grave voice.
He certainly didn't want to attract attention from all sides, let alone be interviewed and exposed by the media.
"No problem, no problem," Xu Jingfang and the others nodded hurriedly, only Dr. Qin still hesitated a bit.
"Dr. Qin, do you know Tang Yiyuan? I have a very good relationship with him," Ge Dongxu said, his real worry actually being that Dr. Qin might talk about his involvement, since Yue Ting and the others definitely wouldn't dare to speak carelessly due to the favor they owed him. But Dr. Qin was a different story. Seeing him hesitate, an idea struck Ge Dongxu, and he mentioned Tang Yiyuan's name.
He wasn't sure how well-known Tang Yiyuan was, but considering he was a doctoral supervisor and an expert on the Jiangnan Province Medical Expert Group, he should have some reputation in the medical community of Jiangnan Province.
"You know Professor Tang! Then there won't be any problem," Dr. Qin indeed knew Tang Yiyuan and seemed to hold him in high regard. Hearing this, he hesitated no further and quickly said so.
Dr. Qin was a practitioner of Western medicine, and what he revered was not Tang Yiyuan's title as a professor of Chinese medicine but his title as an expert in the Jiangnan Province Medical Expert Group. That title was very weighty in the province, allowing direct contact with high-ranking officials and magnates. Countless doctors had tried their best to get on that list but never had the chance. Despite being a well-known expert in the First Affiliated Hospital of Ouzhou City Medical College, Dr. Qin was still far from qualifying to be part of the expert group. Even their hospital's director didn't qualify. So when Ge Dongxu brought up Tang Yiyuan's name and stated he had a close relationship with him, Dr. Qin had no more doubts.
Seeing how Dr. Qin immediately agreed upon the mention of Tang Yiyuan's name, Ge Dongxu regretted not invoking it earlier to avoid the hassle.
At the same time, Ge Dongxu realized the weight Tang Yiyuan held in the medical community of Jiangnan Province!
So Ge Dongxu followed Dr. Qin into the resuscitation room swiftly.
At that moment, the line on the monitor had almost flattened, and everyone around was at a loss for what to do.
Upon seeing Dr. Qin's return, they looked at him as if he were a savior and asked anxiously, "Director Qin, what do we do now? Transferring to the Provincial Capital is definitely not an option."
"You all leave, this doctor here can assist me," Dr. Qin said, waving his hand and simultaneously shaking his head at the sight of Zuo Le lying on the bed in a deep coma.
Years of clinical experience told him that Zuo Le's condition, barring a miracle, was beyond saving.
Of course, as doctors, as long as the patient's heart hadn't stopped beating, they must do their utmost to resuscitate.
Only then did the others notice the young man with Dr. Qin. As they were about to speak, the young man already spoke sternly to them, "Get out, all of you, and make it quick!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The First Affiliated Hospital of Ouzhou City Medical College was the best hospital in Ouzhou City. Being a part of it, each one of them carried a bit of pride, so when they saw Ge Dongxu, this young man, ordering them out so bluntly, their faces showed a hint of dissatisfaction. Just as they were about to protest, Dr. Qin, sensing Ge Dongxu's urgency and remembering his miraculous methods from before, quickly looked stern and said authoritatively before they could speak, "Didn't you hear the command to leave? What are you waiting for?" Read exclusive content at empire
Dr. Qin's words carried a different weight from Ge Dongxu's, and with his say, they obediently left the resuscitation room.
When the medical staff had left the resuscitation room, Ge Dongxu had already completed taking Zuo Le's pulse and, with a grave expression, took out the Silver Needles. Then like a lightning, he inserted the needles behind and on the nape of Zuo Le's neck within a single breath's time, followed swiftly by acupuncture points at Zuo Yun's Juque, Tanzhong, Tianchi… and more.
The former was to address Zuo Le's cranial hemorrhage while the latter to stimulate his life potential to increase his cardiac output.
After this dazzling series of Silver Needles insertion, Ge Dongxu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a sense of relief, "Thank goodness, just in time. Any later and not even Hua Tuo reincarnated could have been of use."
By this time, Doctor Qin's mouth was hanging wide open, his eyeballs bulging like those of a goldfish.
Because, in just a short moment, he had seen the nearly flat lines on the life-signs monitoring equipment beside the emergency table start to show regular fluctuations, and the blood pressure was gradually climbing up...
Everything indicated that Zuo Le, who had been hanging by a thread, was gradually moving past the critical phase.
"Actually, even if Hua Tuo were to return, I doubt he could perform such a miraculous feat as you have," Doctor Qin said after a long while. Unconsciously, he, a native of Jiangnan Province, used the respectful "you" that was seldom used.
"I don't deserve such praise," Ge Dongxu replied, before taking out a long silver needle from the rosewood box. This silver needle was more than twice as long as the others.
Due to gravity, the lengthy silver needle bent downwards as soon as Ge Dongxu took it out from the rosewood box. With just a pinch of his fingers on the needle, however, it immediately straightened out.
Then Ge Dongxu inserted the entire long silver needle into Zuo Le's brain, and black blood slowly started to flow out along the silver needle.
Doctor Qin's mouth fell open once again, for he clearly understood that the slowly oozing black blood was a hematomas from the brain. This was definitely the most magical "surgery" to remove blood clots inside the skull he had ever seen in his lifetime.
When the flow of the black blood had nearly stopped, Ge Dongxu then slowly pulled the silver needle out.
"Phew!" Ge Dongxu let out a long sigh of relief.
The most dangerous part for Zuo Le was not actually his lungs, but the cranial hemorrhage.
Now that Ge Dongxu had finally sealed off the bleeding in his brain and cleared the clots inside his skull, from Ge Dongxu's medical perspective, Zuo Le was, at this moment, truly past the critical period.
As Ge Dongxu sighed in relief, Zuo Le slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing Zuo Le open his eyes, Doctor Qin was so shocked he almost stepped back as if he had seen a ghost. Fortunately, he soon realized he was a doctor and the person before him was very much alive, not a ghost.
"How are you feeling now?" Doctor Qin asked subconsciously.
"Pain!" Zuo Le managed to gasp out the word.
"Don't talk, your lungs are still pierced by your ribs!" Ge Dongxu said.
"Right, right, don't talk now, listen to the doctor!" Doctor Qin hurriedly said.
Zuo Le felt confused by Doctor Qin's words. Shouldn't the doctor be this middle-aged man in the white coat? And who was this young man dressed in sportswear?
