Chapter 313: The old American legs

Zeng Yi was about to go to bed, but he received a call from Shao Haibo: "Senior brother, is it so late, is there something wrong?"

"Are you not asleep yet?" Shao Haibo asked on the phone.

Zeng Yi said, "I'm reading the information!"

"That's good!" Shao Haibo said, "Is it convenient for you to come to the hospital now?"

"There is a big case?" Zeng Yi asked.

Shao Haibo nodded and said, "A patient suddenly came from the United States. It was introduced by Little David. I haven't seen anyone yet, but I heard that he has a great influence and is an internationally renowned person!"

Zeng Yi said, "Didn't Xiao David say what's going on?"

"I didn't say it specifically, but it was definitely not optimistic. It was impossible to cure it in the United States, so I came to the country!" Shao Haibo said, "I heard that David Xiao also sent an application to the Nanyun Medical Foundation and requested the foundation to provide medical assistance!"

"Then I'll go there now!" Zeng Yi stood up and went to get his coat, "I'll talk about it later!"

"I'm on the way to the hospital too! Let's talk about it when I meet!" Shao Haibo hung up the phone after saying that.

After Zeng Yi left, he drove straight to Rongcheng. If he really couldn't cure it in the United States and transferred to China, the situation would be very unoptimistic, and the patient might even die at any time. This little David is very good at killing first and then saying goodbye. He would just take the patient to Nanjiang without calling one. This is a test of the health system of Nanjiang Province!

He also sent a rescue request to the Nanyun Medical Foundation, but he didn't know what the purpose was. Since Long Meixin returned to the capital, he has been unable to contact him. The Nanyun Medical Foundation has been handed over to Wei Xiangnan for management, and he didn't know if he had received a request from David Little.

The car arrived downstairs of the Provincial People's Hospital. Zeng Yi had just parked the car and saw a black Audi rushing towards him. He was very familiar with the license plate and belonged to the health department. Judging from the arrangement of the numbers, it should belong to Pan Baojin.

Zeng Yi pushed the door and got out of the car, standing there waiting for the other party to get off.

Sure enough, after the car stopped, he saw Wang Biao jumping out of the passenger seat and then opened the door of the back seat.

"Director Pan!" Zeng Yi took two steps forward and extended his hand to greet Pan Baojin.

"It's Xiao Zeng!" Pan Baojin shook hands with Zeng Yi and said, "It's so late, why are you here!"

Zeng Yi did not answer, but asked, "Director Pan came for the American patient's affairs?"

Pan Baojin nodded heavily, his face was solemn, and said, "You are here for this too?"

"Director Shao is my senior brother." Zeng Yi explained.

Pan Baojin suddenly realized and raised his hand and said, "Then let's talk together!"

Wang Biao followed behind the butts of the two, feeling resentful. Zeng Yi, a bastard, didn't even call anyone when he saw me, pretending not to know each other! Pan Baojin is the health care doctor of the provincial party committee. These days, Wang Biao followed Pan Baojin, no matter where he went or who he met, the other party would definitely greet him with a smile. He was flattered, but when he arrived at Zeng Yi, he was actually treated as air. How could Wang Biao not be angry?

You are all given by me from the expert group of the Health Bureau. Now you are just the deputy director of the Management Committee, which is so awesome!

After entering the elevator, Pan Baojin said: "This time the patient is from an American political family and has great influence in the United States and even internationally. The province has received a notice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, requiring that all the best treatment be carried out. The US embassy in China has also sent a special person to coordinate."

Zeng Yi nodded. No wonder Pan Baojin, a deputy director of the health department, would come to the hospital in person in the middle of the night. So that's what happened. "It seems that the situation is quite serious!"

"The department will organize an expert consultation as soon as possible. If necessary, we will ask the Ministry of Health to send better experts to come!" Pan Baojin looked at Zeng Yi, "Zeng Yi, your medical skills are good, and I will help you see it later!"

"Yes, I came for this matter!" Zeng Yi said.

Wang Biao couldn't help rolling his eyes and thought to himself that you were so big. The college you are all in together, others don't know what level you are at. Do you still not know? Director Pan is just to be polite to you. You really treat yourself as a character and climb up along the rod, without any fear of throwing yourself to death!

Other American experts can't see it well. Just your three-legged cat's methods, can you see it well? Bah!

After leaving the elevator, Shao Haibo was waiting at the elevator entrance. When he saw Pan Baojin, he was stunned at first, then hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Director Pan, you come here in person and don't inform me, I can go downstairs to greet you!"

Pan Baojin shook hands and said, "The matter is urgent. I won't mention these red tape. Let's talk about the patient's condition first. Is it serious?"

Shao Haibo shook his head, sighed, and said, "The patient arrived at the hospital an hour ago. The doctor on duty at the hospital has already conducted a preliminary examination on him, and the situation is not optimistic!"

Pan Baojin's face became more solemn, and he said, "You can talk about it in detail."

"The consultation room is in front, Director Pan please go here!" Shao Haibo raised his hand and led the way in front, introducing: "The patient is 54 years old, a female, with a long-term severe diabetes. Under the influence of hyperglycemia, the blood vessels of the lower limbs began to be blocked and blood clots accumulate, causing unbearable pain in both legs. Not long ago, the patient underwent a minimally invasive surgery in the United States, and implanted a stent on both legs to improve blood circulation."

Pan Baojin nodded. He was from a medical school and understood the basic theories of Western medicine. It is not difficult to understand Shao Haibo's words. One in ten of diabetic patients will eventually suffer from leg pain, which is very common.

"It's a pity that this operation did not achieve the expected effect. Not only did it not improve the blood circulation, but the wound of the operation could not heal due to diabetes, and then gangrene and ulceration occurred!" Shao Haibo looked at Pan Baojin, "She came to Nanjiang this time to try other treatment methods!"

Pan Baojin's scalp was numb at that time. He already understood what Shao Haibo meant. This patient was just taking the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse. It was very difficult!

This disease, called "diabetic foot" in Western medicine, is caused by lower limb necrosis caused by diabetes. Generally, there is no good way to amputate the limbs and amputate the necrotic parts to prevent further deterioration. Moreover, the proportion of amputation is very large. Among all non-traumatic lower limb amputation surgeries around the world, more than 60% of patients with diabetic foot account for.

Moreover, even if an amputation is performed, it may not be cured well. Many people quickly passed away after the amputation.

Traditional Chinese medicine also has a name for this disease, called "old rotten legs". It does not refer specifically to diabetic feet, but it is also included. During treatment, it is necessary to apply drugs in differentiation.

Zeng Yi also listened on the side, thinking that little David really caused a big trouble to Nanjiang Province this time. The patient from the United States was probably informed that she had been amputated in the United States. She came to China this time to avoid amputation. Generally, at this point, it means that the situation is so serious that it cannot be more serious. The gangrene produced may endanger life at any time.

After entering the consultation room, several experts from the Provincial Human Resources Hospital were discussing the patient's situation. When they saw Pan Baojin, they all stood up and said, "Director Pan!"

Pan Baojin pressed his hand and said, "Sit, everyone sit down and talk!"

Everyone sat around the conference table. Zeng Yi naturally sat at Shao Haibo's lower head, then the doctor in the hospital, and finally Wang Biao.

After Wang Biao sat down, he felt unhappy and thought to himself that the doctors from the Provincial Human Resources Hospital did not know that I was Director Pan’s assistant, and he actually let me sit at the tail. He felt that he had not received enough attention today and lost face.

Pan Baojin said: "Director Shao, you can continue to discuss and I'll listen."

A doctor who just discussed the condition said: "The condition is very clear. At present, we think the best treatment plan is amputation, and it is urgent. We have discussed this collectively!"

Pan Baojin asked, "Does the patient agree?"

"Just asking President Shao for instructions, and then send someone to communicate!" said the doctor.

Zeng Yi said at this time: "I don't think the patient will agree!"

Shao Haibo and Pan Baojin both nodded. They actually understood in their hearts that since the patient flew most of the earth from the United States to the country, he would never have to be amputated, otherwise he would have been amputated in the United States.

"If she disagrees, then all the consequences will have nothing to do with us!" Shao Haibo looked at Zeng Yi and said, "The hospital will ask her to sign a medical responsibility letter!"

Zeng Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Even if she agrees, can the hospital bear the consequences of the treatment?"

Shao Haibo's face suddenly stopped. Zeng Yi's words came to the point. Even if the other party agreed to amputation, what is the effect after the cutoff, and whether he can save his life, it's still another thing. Judging from the other party's current situation, it's not optimistic. If the other party agrees, the hospital will be even more troublesome. When the chainsaw moves, there will be no regrets.

Pan Baojin also frowned. This matter seems to be really difficult to deal with.

After thinking about it, Shao Haibo had no good idea, so he said, "Zeng Yi, what do you think?"

"Let's go and see the patient's condition first!" Zeng Yi said, "It's a bit early to discuss these things now. After we figure out the specific situation, it's not too late for us to discuss it!"

Shao Haibo looked at Pan Baojin, wanting to see what Pan Baojin's opinion was.

Pan Baojin nodded and said, "Then let's go see the patient first!" He has no better way now, so he went to see the patient first. If the situation is optimistic, then he would think of other ways to treat it. If he is not optimistic, he must clearly divide the medical responsibilities so as not to cause any disputes in the future.

The medical disputes are already a headache. If there is another "foreign doctor dispute", then Nanjiang Province will not be able to think that it is peaceful, let alone this foreign doctor's disputes are quite good.

Pan Baojin stood up, and the others stood up together, and everyone walked towards the ward of the American patient.

Wang Biao followed behind, staring at Zeng Yi's back with hatred. Director Pan is here, and Zeng Yi dared to express his opinions carelessly. It's really outrageous! Director Pan adopted his opinion, which made Wang Biao even more depressed.

.

On the bed in the ward, a serious and elegant American woman leaned down there, with several people standing or sitting next to her, and little David was among them.

Seeing everyone coming in, little David stepped forward a few steps and said, "Director Shao, how is the consultation situation?"

Shao Haibo raised his hand and said, "Let me introduce you to you. This is Director Pan Baojin and Director Pan of the Provincial Health Department. Director Pan brings everyone here to learn about the patient's condition. In addition, Zeng Yi is here too, let's take a look!"

Little David shook hands with Pan Baojin and greeted him a few times, then grabbed Zeng Yi's hand and said, "Mr. Zeng, I'll ask you this time! I have seen your medical skills, please do your best!"

Zeng Yi waved his hand slightly and said, "Let's take a look at the patient's situation first. Doctors are not omnipotent saviors. What they can do is do their best!" Without seeing the specific situation, Zeng Yi's answer was very cautious.

David Little introduced to everyone other people in the ward, including the patient's assistant and the special envoy sent by the embassy. This patient from the United States, named Lauren, is a famous American lawyer. Lauren's family has had several justices, and some even have been vice presidents. He is a very famous political family in the United States.

After the introduction, Lauren's assistant lifted the corner of the quilt, then gently pulled up Lauren's loose trousers, and everyone saw the legs.

Pan Baojin felt a chill when he saw it. This situation was even more serious than he thought! Lauren's legs were severely swollen and ulcerated, his feet were black and yellow, and gangrene appeared, just like two meat buns covered with mold spots, which was extremely terrifying. In Western medicine, the organs and nerve tissues began to necrotize, and there was a tendency to spread.

The doctor present also shook his head. At this point, there was no other way to think about it, and he could only amputate his limbs!

Little David valued Zeng Yi's opinion more. He stood beside him and waited patiently for Zeng Yi to see Lauren's condition. Then he went forward to take the rubber gloves that Zeng Yi took off, threw them into the trash can, turned around and said, "Mr. Zeng, what do you think?"

Zeng Yi pondered for a moment and said, "I need to look at Ms. Lauren's medical record, the more detailed the better!"

You can understand it, pretending, Wang Biao said disdainfully.

As soon as little David explained to Lauren's assistant, the assistant opened the briefcase, carried out a thick stack of medical records, and handed them to Zeng Yi.

Zeng Yi opened the medical record and slowly flipped it. It recorded in detail the examination data, physical condition, and various treatment plans that Lauren had done during this period. As he flipped through, Zeng Yi frowned slightly. These data seemed to be more recently, less in the past, and were inconsistent in the front and back, which was not in line with the American habit of seeing a doctor!

Americans generally have a fixed private doctor who is responsible for their health problems for a long time and is also very familiar with their physical condition. Once they are uncomfortable, they will first consult their private doctor. If the private doctor feels that the condition needs to be handled more professionally, they will use other doctors.

This is even more true for Americans with status like Lauren. The private doctors she hired were at least famous doctors, but this was not reflected in these medical records.

Zeng Yi continued to flip down until he saw a very old medical record and saw the signature of a doctor on it. He was a little surprised and stood there thinking about something.

Wang Biao asked at this time: "Zeng Yi, do you see anything?"

At this moment, the doctor of the Provincial Human Resources Hospital frowned collectively, thinking that Director Pan's assistant was too rude. Didn't you see Expert Zeng thinking about his condition? Besides, Expert Zeng is a decent deputy department-level cadre. You are a little assistant, but you dare to call him the name directly. I am afraid that your director should also call him "Comrade Zeng Yi" in normal times!

Zeng Yi came to his senses and handed the medical record in his hand to everyone, saying, "Let's take a look, let's discuss it!"

Wang Biao also glanced and found that the English written by American doctors on the medical record was comparable to the style written by domestic doctors. He gave up after reading two lines. It was difficult to recognize it, and he couldn't understand what they said. He thought to himself that Zeng Yi was so obsessed with just now, and he didn't know if he pretended it or really understood it.

Zeng Yi stood for a while, and after several doctors had read the medical records, he said, "What do you think of several doctors?"

The doctor from the Provincial Human Resources Hospital looked at each other and said, "Our opinion is to amputate the limbs. This is the best treatment plan!"

As soon as David young translated, Lauren's assistant whispered: "No, you must not be amputated! This is the bottom line of treatment!"
