My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1478 - 593: Treat First, Investigate Later; The Unde
So tests take several days to yield results. If you insist on waiting for the results before administering dication, the patient might not survive long enough to see them.
Experts at the Provincial Children’s Hospital administered blood transfusions, hemostatic treatnts, and anti-infective therapies to the pediatric patient before identifying the cause of the illness.
Currently, the suspected diseases are intestinal hookworm disease, Crohn’s Disease, lymphoma, and intestinal tuberculosis.
Based on the treatnts administered, the experts seem more inclined toward intestinal tuberculosis.
This is because many of the child’s symptoms closely resemble those of intestinal tuberculosis, which is a common disease in our country.
After imaging studies, the possibility of an intestinal tumor is virtually ruled out.
Initially, there was a lot of hope placed on the possibility of an intestinal tumor.
Because a large, cord-like mass was palpable in the ileocecal region.
Unfortunately, after days of treatnt, nurous antibiotics and glucocorticoids were used, yet the child’s condition continued to relapse. When on dication, the fever could be controlled, and the bleeding seed to improve significantly.
But once the dication was stopped, relapses occurred quickly.
This indicates that the true cause of the illness hadn’t been found.
Zhou Can began carefully deducing possible causes in his mind. He listed all diseases with matching symptoms and eliminated them one by one; this is the most commonly used thod in clinical diagnosis of difficult cases.
At this mont, a middle-aged man with a commanding presence and large features entered the consultation room.
It was apparent that the middle-aged man’s face had grown quite haggard.
Having a daughter who has been seriously ill for many days with no significant improvent in treatnt must bring this man imnse pressure.
"My na is Lin Jinzhi, and my daughter is Lin Aixi. I feel truly apologetic for troubling all you directors, experts, and nursing teachers this late today. But my daughter’s illness is critical, and it cannot be delayed; I am sincerely grateful to each of you. No matter the outco, this grace from today will be rembered by ."
After speaking, the man bowed deeply to everyone.
A worthy leader indeed, his words and deeds show significant prowess in understanding human nature and managing perceptions.
In a few short sentences and a bow, he managed to motivate the dical personnel present to give their all in rescuing his daughter.
And it left a very favorable impression of him.
"My daughter was born to my ex-wife, who married during my poorest and most downtrodden tis. Later, due to work reasons, we never had children until my job beca more stable. Then, Lin Aixi was born. Sadly, my wife died due to postpartum hemorrhage and amniotic fluid embolism, leaving with our newborn daughter. My daughter is my life’s treasure; I earnestly plead the experts here to think of ways to save her. Should you have any questions to ask, you can do so at any ti, and I will cooperate fully with the doctors’ diagnostic efforts."
Lin Jinzhi made another statent to everyone.
Zhou Can had originally assud that Lin Jinzhi was like most successful n: getting promotions, amassing wealth, and swapping wives.
He hadn’t expected it to be caused by such circumstances.
It turned out his wife died due to amniotic fluid embolism and postpartum hemorrhage.
Being both a father and a mother alone is incredibly difficult.
For personal physical needs and family needs, it is understandable to marry again.
He had not expected the second wife to be anything but decent; she turned out to be a malicious woman.
If only his child’s health issues had been taken to the hospital for earlier treatnt!
Many diseases, especially malignant ones, benefit greatly from early treatnt.
Cancer, which is so feared in our country, is regarded as nothing in many developed countries because they emphasize health screenings, and cancer is often detected at an early stage.
Through surgical and dical treatnts, a cure can be achieved.
Many people hope that cancer treatnt drugs will be invented in the future, making treating cancer as simple as treating the common cold.
Such a possibility is very high, but it takes ti.
Until such drugs are developed, regular health screenings and early detection and treatnt is the most correct thod of prevention.
Lin Jinzhi’s gaze swept over the group, slowly drawing out a paper-folded heart-shaped peach from his pocket.
"This is a birthday gift from my daughter. She said, ’Daddy, I know you’re very busy with work, but I really hope you can spend more ti with because you always smile especially happily when you see . Happy birthday!’"
The boss of the Health Bureau could not help trembling his lips when reading those words.
Emotions are the most precious human quality.
Even money and work are not as important as emotions. We would give up everything for those we love, work tirelessly and spend each paycheck on loved ones without complaints.
This is the charm of emotions.
The dical staff present were deeply moved upon hearing this.
The nurses responsible for the tea service and several female doctors even shed tears.
"Could you tell , how much blood did your daughter vomit? When did she start vomiting blood? How many tis has she vomited blood so far?"
Zhou Can asked the first question.
It’s not that he wanted to stand out, but he was wholeheartedly committed to diagnosing the pediatric patient, and he needed to gather more detailed information.
Lin Jinzhi looked up at Zhou Can and seed slightly disappointed to find the first question coming from such a young doctor.
Nonetheless, he replied.
"The bleeding isn’t very much; she started exhibiting symptoms of vomiting blood early this morning, with blood streaks in the sputum she coughs up. As for how many tis she’s vomited blood, I haven’t kept count."
It appears the situation with vomiting blood isn’t as severe as imagined.
Zhou Can initially suspected it was due to drug-induced side effects or the worsening of the illness, spreading from the lower digestive tract to the upper digestive tract.
Or invading the lungs.
Hemoptysis is mostly related to lung diseases.
For example, lung cancer and pneumonia often result in hemoptysis.
"Is your daughter still vomiting blood? I an, is there still blood in her sputum?"
Zhou Can continued to ask.
Lin Jinzhi slightly furrowed his brows.
"Sotis the sputum might still have blood in it. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I suggest leaving more ti for questions from the senior experts here. Their experience is far richer, and they might have a higher chance of diagnosing the cause of my daughter’s illness."
Evidently, he felt Zhou Can asked too many questions, worrying it occupied ti from other expert inquiries.
Almost everyone has a deeply ingrained subconscious notion that the older the doctor, the better they are, possessing higher skills and more experience.
"Alright."
Zhou Can kept a calm expression and didn’t ask any more questions.
Tang Fei, the Head of Departnt, had intended to clarify with a couple of sentences that although Zhou Can is young, his skills are considerable. However, since others had started asking questions, she decided to hold back her comnts for the mont.
"Mr. Lin, may I ask what kind of foods your daughter consus regularly?"
"My daughter has always been looked after by a nanny and my current wife. Due to my busy work schedule, I often return ho very late and don’t have a clear understanding."
"Does she consu a lot of snacks usually? Such serious intestinal diseases in such young children, excluding hereditary factors, usually originate from dietary sources."
"Well... she does indeed consu quite a lot of snacks regularly. I see she enjoys them, so I often buy so to bring ho. Due to consuming too many sweet foods, my daughter’s teeth show significant signs of cavities."
...
Zhou Can listened quietly, continuing to analyze the cause of the child’s illness in his mind.
Half an hour later, the experts had almost finished asking their questions.
An array of new discussions ensued.
Tang Fei, the Head of Departnt, began giving a concluding statent.
"Based on the results from our earlier discussion, we are suspicious of five diseases: intestinal tuberculosis, typhoid, Crohn’s Disease, myeloma, malignant lymphoma, or intestinal-type lymphoma. Firstly, I believe intestinal tuberculosis can be excluded. Analyzing Aixi’s overall condition, there are no symptoms of tuberculous toxemia, the ESR shows no significant acceleration, nor is there a similar hereditary disease or past dical history, and her condition is extrely critical, so I think we can largely rule out intestinal tuberculosis."
Tang Fei deserves recognition as the Head of Pediatric Departnt; her dical skills and academic level are top-notch.
She is far from being just a pretty face.
In pediatrics across various fields, she exhibits great talent.
The only area she might be lacking in could be surgical skills.
Surgery involves a high level of practical ability and technique, with significant physical demands, making it challenging for female doctors to achieve great milestones in this domain.
Only a few exceptions achieve reasonably good accomplishnts.
These typically concentrate in the obstetrics and gynecology fields.
