When the Doctor Uses A Hack
Chapter 1100 - 1102: The Mysterious River Jumper

The hospital was not far from the scene; it took Chen Cang and others less than 10 minutes to arrive.

Resuscitation was already underway at the scene.

However, having been rescued from the river already meant they had encountered good Samaritans!

Chen Cang did not understand the difficulty of rescuing someone from the river since he himself did not possess such strength, nor had he ever attempted such an experience.

But it must be very difficult!

After all, he knew how heavy an unconscious person could be, and bringing someone ashore who had lost consciousness, even one already agitated from drowning, was highly challenging.

On this side, Chen Cang hurriedly ran over.

The drowning victim was a young girl under 20 years old, saved by a strong young man in his 30s.

At this point, the odor from her mouth had been cleared, and with several people's help, the woman was positioned prone on the young man's knees to expel water.

When Chen Cang arrived, the young man quickly said, "Doctor, she's not breathing anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang promptly laid the woman flat on the ground, squatted down, placed his right hand on the carotid artery pulse, and then began to check for breathing and heartbeat!

There was a faint heartbeat, but breathing had stopped.

Seeing this, Chen Cang said to Xiao Ke on the side, "Xiao Ke, atropine!"

Now was the time to inject atropine to suppress the vagal nerve reflex and expand the lungs!

However, mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration was still needed!

Of course, prone compression back respiration could also be done.

But!

The former is better than the latter because this kind of mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration could positively inflate the alveoli, improving ventilation and respiration.

This could effectively help restore lung function.

After Chen Cang injected the atropine.

Xiao Ke did not hesitate, bent down to open the airway, and began artificial respiration.

In reality, though artificial respiration looks simple in daily life.

But ask yourself, how many people can do it?

Many emergency procedures test not only medical knowledge but also a kind of psychology!

Indeed, Xiao Ke had some opinions about those who attempt suicide, but when faced with suicidal individuals, she could still start rescue efforts without hesitation.

It's unclear exactly how much time had passed, but more and more onlookers gathered around.

Then, Xiao Ke suddenly said happily, "Dr. Chen, she's breathing!"

Chen Cang was immediately overjoyed: "Good, get her on the ambulance first."

There was no time to waste at this moment.

After moving the woman onto the ambulance, Xiao Ke quickly cut away the clothes and connected her to the ECG monitor!

"Oxygen saturation at 85!"

"Blood pressure 76/45!"

Low blood pressure?

Chen Cang quickly said, "Dopamine, and dexamethasone to correct shock and restore tissue perfusion, and keep track of input and output!"

Fortunately, the patient's heartbeat had not stopped suddenly, which was good news!

Xiao Ke stripped the woman of her clothes and dried off the moisture on her body with a dry cloth, then covered her with blankets to retain body heat.

These seemingly detailed operations could often improve the condition of the patient.

At this time, cardiac and pulmonary functions had been revived!

Yet the patient's consciousness had not been restored.

"Ice cap!"

Chen Cang could only use this method to put the brain into a kind of sub-hibernation state.

The vehicle sped along, and they soon reached the hospital.

With Old Ma absent, Xu Aiqing quickly took the woman to the emergency room for intense, orderly resuscitation.

The woman had no items on her that could prove her identity, including mobile phone and documents; none were present.

This made it impossible for the hospital to contact her family.

It was clear that the woman was very determined to die.

The rescue of a drowning person is a comparatively prolonged and troublesome process.

However, the hospital had already contacted the public security authorities as soon as possible to identify the patient.

Around the afternoon, a police officer came to the hospital and brought back the specific information.

Upon seeing Chen Cang, the police officer paused slightly, and couldn't help saying, "Professor Chen?"

Chen Cang was also taken aback for a moment!

He recognized the man as familiar - the same junior officer who had witnessed him fighting for a pen last time.

"Hello, Officer."

The junior officer smiled and said, "Professor Chen, this is the patient's information, let me tell you about it."

"Patient, female, named Yu Wan, born in 1995, 25 years old this year..."

While speaking, he handed over a photo of the woman: "Look, it's her."

Chen Cang took a look and couldn't help but pause in shock.

This young lady is quite pretty; how could she think of ending her life?

The police said, "We've already contacted the patient's family, and they should be arriving soon."

Chen Cang nodded, "Why suicide?"

The police officer paused and responded, "I don't know either, but... I do know some rather strange things."

Chen Cang, hearing this, was instantly taken aback.

"Strange things? What do you mean?"

The officer sighed, "Well... speaking of which, this girl's family is quite pitiful too, five children in the house, and she's the youngest!"

"But... both of her two brothers died, and one of her sisters was hospitalized last year, and she still has another sister."

"Her father also passed away; there's only she and her mother left on the household registration, along with two sisters."

The officer's words left Chen Cang utterly bewildered!

"How did they die?" asked Chen Cang directly.

The police officer could not help but shake his head: "That's beyond me, I really don't know how they died, I only know that one died at 29, the other at 30, and the rest is unknown."

The information registered by the public security bureau was very limited, and it was not easy for them to tell Chen Cang even this much.

The junior officer said, "However, we have contacted witnesses, and through related surveillance footage, we saw that Yu Wan definitely committed suicide, with no other signs evident."

Upon hearing the news, Chen Cang's brows drew tightly together.

Could she have encountered some kind of curse?

Chen Cang couldn't help but sigh...

The police officer asked, "This... is Yu Wan still unconscious?"

Chen Cang nodded, "Unconscious, it's estimated she was submerged for quite a long time. Her cardio-pulmonary function is restored now, but her consciousness hasn't awakened yet. Of course, it's also possible that the patient herself does not want to wake up."

Although Chen Cang seemed to be joking, sometimes it was truly the case.

There are patients whose subconscious enters a closed state, unwilling to receive external information.

Moreover, right-brain damage can lead to areas like the frontal lobe suffering from ischemia and hypoxia, which prevent sensations from being transmitted through the nerves to the cerebral cortex.

Thus leading to a state of being unresponsive to external stimuli!

This situation is akin to a vegetative state.

The body itself is capable of functioning, but because it's unaffected by any external stimuli, it remains in a dormant state.

Such a possibility cannot be excluded.

The brain, truly, is a region that humanity has never fully set foot in.

Shrouded in mystery.
