Chapter 483 - Chapter 483 483 Night Shift Handover

Chapter 483: [483] Night Shift Handover Chapter 483: [483] Night Shift Handover Sun Yubo led the students into the doctors’ office.

The four doctors from the previous 24-hour shift, with Doctor Wu leading Lin Hao, began the handover with them.

“Today, many patients were discharged, and we admitted quite a few new ones. Just from our own group, there was a significant turnover of patients,” said Doctor Wu concisely, summarizing the situation. “As for the critically ill, as far as I know, group five has a patient who is a bit troublesome. They already had to resuscitate him once during the day.”

“Did anything out of the ordinary happen last night?” Sun Yubo asked.

“Last night was fine for me. Nothing major happened. We admitted an emergency patient last night, who, fortunately, wasn’t too difficult to handle. You should have it easier than me since all the beds are filled. Unless the director calls, I doubt the emergency department will send any more patients our way. We can’t just add beds whenever we want. If a seriously ill patient comes in, and we can’t handle it here, isn’t all the cardiac monitoring used up? Didn’t we borrow two units from another department?” Doctor Wu finished, exchanging a knowing look with Sun Yubo. “Actually, I was nervous as soon as I knew we’d be taking on new people this week. I believe you feel pretty much the same.”

Newcomers bring bad luck. Every veteran knows that.

“Are you only mentoring him? Doesn’t your group have quite a few interns?” Sun Yubo asked, seeing only Lin Hao.

Other groups are not as averse to teaching students as theirs, and Tan Kelin has the luxury of arranging not to mentor much in his group.

“You should know that after the incident with Doctor Pan last week, Dr. Tan came over to help out. He’s still not fully recovered. Associate Director Liu is now quite busy and is thinking of giving him a couple of days off. Thankfully, the patient didn’t die that day, and the family understood after the diagnosis, as the surgery was done along with another condition the patient had. However, it scared our staff quite a bit. Under such circumstances, how could our group continue to mentor students?” Doctor Wu said, pointing to Lin Hao, “This guy was there that day, and he remained calm. That’s why he was assigned to be on duty with me. Let’s leave the other interns out of it for now, to avoid any more incidents. It’s even worse if something happens at night when there’s no one around.”

It seemed that Lin Hao was gaining a reputation among the medical students at General Surgery Department Two.

Li Qi’an couldn’t help but curl his lip in a competitive spirit.

As for the patient involved in the incident, he was transferred to Hepatobiliary Surgery.

“It’s better that he was transferred,” sighed Doctor Wu, ready to leave after the handover. He said to Lin Hao, “Go back and get some rest. It’s our turn to be on night duty again tomorrow.”

“Yes, Teacher Wu,” Lin Hao answered with a composed tone.

After completing the handover with Doctor Wu, Sun Yubo took a moment to catch his breath. He was feeling anxious, having heard about the daytime resuscitation. The night ahead promised to be challenging, with the possibility of continuing the resuscitation.

He led the students to check on group five’s critically ill patient, who was in bed sixty-one, a woman in her forties or fifties.

Upon arrival, they found no family members around, and the attending doctor had left. Sun Yubo stepped out of the ward to call the attending doctor to inquire about the situation.

“Yes, she was resuscitated around two o’clock this afternoon. It wasn’t as terrible as Wu Qingying described. Her blood pressure dropped, but she improved a lot after a blood transfusion. She was slightly anemic. Tomorrow, we’ll ask hematology to consult. Only after the consultation can we determine if surgery is possible,” the doctor on the other end said.

“What’s her condition? What surgery are you planning?” Sun Yubo asked for more details.

As she listened to her teacher speak, Xie Wanying quickly took notes in her notebook, occasionally glancing at the patient and the monitor.
