Chapter 374: Chapter 374: System, How Have You Beco So Benevolent?
As Chen Cang got back to his departnt, it was already around twelve o’clock, a two-hour surgery was quite normal.
He found that the departnt was empty, but having completed the surgery, Chen Cang lacked the motivation to go back. He simply ordered so takeout to eat in the on-call room and got ready to sleep afterwards.
The ergency room on-call quarters were quite humane, including bunk beds that could sleep four people, and there were two such rooms.
Eight beds, fulfilling the fantasy of residency for every resident doctor!
After eating, Chen Cang imdiately felt sleepy and lay down to sleep.
It had to be ntioned that the beds in the ergency room seed to have a magical power that made you want to sleep as soon as you lay down.
Indeed, that must be what they call a natural BUFF!
There were quite a few such items with special innate properties in life, such as the corners of internet cafes, Pinru’s clothes, Uniqlo dressing rooms, and so on…
Just as Chen Cang was falling into a deep sleep, he suddenly heard soone standing by his side calling out.
“Doctor Xiao Chen, Doctor Xiao Chen!”
Chen Cang opened his eyes and saw it was the nurse Lele. He imdiately got up, “What’s wrong, Lele?”
Lele said, “A patient who ate fish and got a fish bone stuck in their throat has co. Doctor Shi is currently dressing the wound, could you take a look?”
Chen Cang looked at his half-eaten al box that he hadn’t had the chance to throw away yet and sighed.
The rich choke on fish bones,
I’m left with cold leftovers.
Seeing patients with fish bones stuck was quite common in the ergency room; Chen Cang got up and stretched.
Then he asked, “What kind of fish was it?”
Lele rolled her eyes, “How would I know?”
Chen Cang put on his white coat and walked outside.
After all, different fish ant different fish bones, which called for different considerations and treatnt plans.
If it were just tiny bones, no big deal, but so fish bones were thin and long, which easily could damage critical areas.
Lele turned back to glance at the half-eaten al on the table, “Doctor Xiao Chen, should I throw your food away? It’ll start to stink in the sumr heat!”
Chen Cang nodded, “Eat it!”
Lele gave him another eye roll and followed Chen Cang out, “Doctor Chen, you earn so much every month, how co you can’t change your thrifty habits!”
Chen Cang snorted, “That’s being economical. By the way, where’s the patient?”
Lele took a few quick steps forward, “I’ll show you.”
While talking, she led Chen Cang forward.
After arriving in the ergency hall, they saw a man wearing a white short-sleeve shirt, a black tie, dress pants, and leather shoes sitting there, touching his chest, repeatedly drinking water from a cup!
His anxious wife suggested, “Drink so vinegar!”
While speaking, she handed over a bottle of vinegar.
The man rolled his eyes, “I’ve already had a bottle! My stomach’s so sour, if I drink any more it’ll cause problems!”
His wife was worried as well.
Neither of them were old, both in their thirties. The man looked like he was in sales.
Seeing Chen Cang approaching, they hurriedly stood up, “Doctor.”
Chen Cang nodded, “Yes, please sit!”
After they sat down, Chen Cang asked, “How long has the fish bone been stuck?”
The man hesitated, “Two days, it happened at lunch the day before yesterday.”
His wife criticized, “It was my husband’s birthday the day before yesterday, and I thought he’s been working so hard, so I made him a scallion oil fish.”
“He sells houses, is always on the move; he never has a mont to rest. While he was eating, suddenly a call from a client ca, wanting to see a property. He was already eating fast, and then, during the al, he choked on the bone as he answered.”
The man coughed and smiled, “Occupational habit, I eat too fast, plus… when the client called, I thought I should eat a few more bites quickly, never expected to get the fish bone stuck.”
After speaking, he touched his chest, feeling so pain.
“I’ve been choked on them before… but it was never a big deal, seed like it would just get better on its own.”
“But this ti, it’s been two days and it feels increasingly painful. I felt really uncomfortable eating lunch today, so we rushed over here imdiately.”
[Ding! Special ergency task triggered, help remove the fish bone from the patient’s esophagus and save the patient. Task reward: Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair Surgery (Master level). Do you accept?]
Chen Cang was montarily taken aback.
What’s with the system today, is there so kind of celebration?
Such a generous reward for a simple fish bone removal!
Isn’t this too honest?
Thinking about it, Chen still felt a bit uncomfortable.
Chen Cang casually chose to accept the task; it would be foolish not to accept such a small task.
However, after hearing the man’s words, Chen Cang’s heart montarily stalled, two days already…
Chen Cang saw the man touching his chest; could the fish bone be lodged deep in the esophagus?
Still, for safety’s sake, Chen Cang decided to stick to standard procedure and take things step by step.
“Open your mouth, let take a look!” Chen Cang took out his cell phone and turned on the flashlight.
As expected, nothing was found.
It must have reached the esophagus, right?
Given the current situation, it’s ti to contact the endoscopy room and prepare for endoscopic removal.
Thinking this, Chen Cang said to the patient, “Let’s go to the endoscopy room to see what the situation is and where the fish bone is stuck. If it can be removed, we’ll take it out right away.”
The man nodded, “Ah… what bad luck, a fish is going to cost hundreds or even over a thousand yuan. What a loss.”
His wife scolded him with a smile, “You’re still joking at a ti like this!”
The man chuckled and comforted his wife, “Wait for here, I’ll just go with the doctor.”
The man was just trying not to make his wife worry.
And after all, a stuck fish bone isn’t a big deal.
Nobody was worried about it!
Including Chen Cang, who didn’t pay it much mind.
It would be fine once it was removed.
The ergency room had seen plenty of cases with stuck fish bones.
Together, they entered the endoscopy room.
Since it was lunchti, the endoscopy room staff were off duty.
Frankly, the endoscopy, comprehensive examination departnt, ultrasound departnt, radiology departnt, and other such departnts clock in and out on ti; they leave work precisely on the dot and generally don’t work overti under normal circumstances.
Of course, this doesn’t apply to the on-call doctors.
But the on-call doctors in these support departnts only accept ergency cases and special urgent consultations, VIPs being an exception. Usually, they don’t take cases from the outpatient or inpatient departnt.
It’s different for cases coming from the ergency room; they generally have to be accepted.
Moreover, Chen Cang now had a good relationship with Director Xiao He and often made appearances in the endoscopy room.
So, Chen Cang had so connections here.
The man quickly completed the necessary procedures and entered the endoscopy room.
Lu Xiaojun was a veteran doctor in the endoscopy room and had been there for quite so ti. After greeting Chen Cang, he had the man get seated.
After all the preparations were done, the endoscope began to probe into the esophagus.
But…
It found nothing after a long while.
Lu Xiaojun was also taken aback; he’d seen many cases of stuck fish bones, but… such a situation was rare.
Holding the gastroendoscope, he probed further down and suddenly saw it!
But… Lu Xiaojun looked at the location and the size of the fish bone, and he was instantly dumbfounded.
Chen Cang couldn’t help but say, “Let’s remove it, shall we?”
Lu Xiaojun imdiately shook his head!
“We can’t remove it!”
Chen Cang was taken aback, “Why not?”
Lu Xiaojun’s expression suddenly beca very serious.
“Look at this position!”
Curious, Chen Cang took a closer look and his face imdiately changed color.
“Are you saying…”
Lu Xiaojun nodded, “This position is very unsafe! Let’s do a CT scan to get a more complete picture!”
Having said this, Lu Xiaojun took a few photos, then withdrew the endoscope probe.
“Do one as quickly as possible!”
