Chapter 406 - Chapter 406 【406】Feeling a bit panicked now

Chapter 406: [(406)] Feeling a bit panicked now Chapter 406: [(406)] Feeling a bit panicked now Both of them walked briskly back to He Xiangyu’s bedside.

Cao Yong took out his stethoscope and listened to the patient’s heart and lungs first. His expression was grave, and he was fully focused.

“Senior, I remembered later. Second Sister choked on a fish bone. She said it was small and swallowed it. Afterwards, she didn’t mention any discomfort so we thought she was fine. At first, I thought her stomach was hurting, but when I lifted the blanket and called out to her, she didn’t respond. The position where she had placed her hand didn’t seem to be on her stomach anymore. Could it be the second constriction of the esophagus, close to the aortic arch? Could it be that after the fish bone got stuck, it entered the esophagus, but because she was doing resuscitation on another patient, performing cardiac compression, that fish bone–” the more Xie Wanying spoke, the more anxious she became. She wished she really had a special ability, then she might have foreseen the situation and treated her sister earlier, instead of just waiting for the illness to manifest before realizing the gravity of the situation.

She wasn’t a deity, and neither was Senior; they couldn’t foresee the future. Clinically, it was often like this, with elusive illnesses and unpredictable situations; doctors could only rely on experience to keep patients for observation. Thinking about this, Xie Wanying’s heart clenched with fear that they might be too late.

While listening to her, Cao Yong thought she was observant and quick-witted. The speed of her thinking was not quite like that of others. What he first considered was the fear of a myocardial infarction in the patient, while she instantly thought of a fish bone obstruction. Her thought process was completely different from other doctors, possessing a talent that allowed her to quickly glide over and avoid falling into common diagnostic patterns.

However, she was a bit panicked now. He knew that during each previous emergency, all her nerves were on edge. This time it was different; the patient was someone she knew well, which certainly made her panic. No matter what, she had just entered the clinical field and hadn’t experienced many significant storms; she wasn’t like them who had been hardened by the cruelest of scenes and had developed a numb, calm, reflexive response.

After removing the stethoscope earpieces, he turned around, took her arm once more, and said in a calm voice, “Bring a manual blood pressure monitor here.”

If the patient was in hemorrhagic shock, then the manual blood pressure monitor would be more accurate.

Senior Cao’s voice didn’t change; it stayed gentle and steady. Xie Wanying, whose heart had almost stopped in panic, felt as if she had been injected with a sedative, calming down. Nodding her head, she ran to the nurse station to get the blood pressure monitor and stethoscope.

As Cao Yong watched her run off, he turned to the nurse bringing in the monitor and said, “Inform Dr. Tan and the others to come over right away!”

“Yes, Dr. Cao!” The nurse, seeing his serious expression, knew something was wrong and that they needed to perform a rescue. She put down the monitor and urgently called other colleagues to help.

Consequently, Tan Kelin and Ren Chongda, who were talking on the phone at the entrance of the emergency hall, rushed back as soon as they heard the nurse’s call.

Having found the blood pressure monitor and stethoscope at the nurse station and clutching them in her arms, Xie Wanying ran back. As she reached the bed, someone grabbed the items from her hands.

“I’ll do it. You stand over there,” said Tan Kelin, taking the blood pressure monitor she had brought and personally measuring the patient’s blood pressure, ordering the student to stand aside.

This student’s expression when she came in was very clear to him–she was panicking, confirming to him once again that she was a rookie uninitiated in clinical practices.

Before Xie Wanying could protest, Teacher Ren pushed her back against the wall and said to her, “I asked them to arrange another bed for you, just stay there.”

“Teacher Ren, I’m fine–”

“You’re now an observation patient; you’re not getting involved in this. I don’t even have the authority to intervene.” With that, Ren Chongda pushed her into a chair to sit down, then took a breath himself.
