Chapter 219: Perceiving Surgical Flaws, Late Night Emergency

Late night,

Qin Feng sat in the office with Lin Hai and another female attending doctor.

It was already 12:30 AM, and they had just finished checking on more than 20 critical patients.

“Qin Feng, how does it feel to start your internship on the night shift? Haha~”

Lin Hai finished a case file and looked at Qin Feng with a smile.

“I’m used to it.”

Qin Feng shook his head, looking calm.

“I heard you were previously the director of the general outpatient clinic and the stem cell transplant center at Jiangcheng City First Hospital, is that true?”

Lin Hai asked next.

The female attending doctor beside him turned her head with curiosity and leaned over.

“Yes.”

Qin Feng didn’t hide it and nodded promptly,

“Although the hospital in Jiangcheng isn’t as large as Peking Union Medical College Hospital, nor as advanced, the people there are very nice.

Just like you guys, haha~”

“Is it really true!”

The female attending doctor couldn’t help but show an expression of surprise upon hearing his answer.

A dual-specialty director!

And a director of a dual-specialty department in a tertiary hospital!

Qin Feng had just begun his postgraduate studies, meaning he achieved such heights with just a bachelor’s degree before.

Even among doctors from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, hearing this is quite surprising.

Of course,

It’s not the dual-specialty director that’s surprising, but Qin Feng’s academic background and age.

In the medical profession, education and experience are a gold-crowned seal!

Yet being able to break these iron rules at a tertiary hospital, becoming the director of the general outpatient clinic and transplant center in one leap.

It’s definitely not a position gained through favors; otherwise, if reported to higher authorities, the hospital would be in trouble.

Strength is vital!

No wonder Qin Feng could become the exception at Peking Union Medical College Hospital’s critical care, allowing a non-critical care undergraduate to directly become an attending physician.

Even given surgical privileges!

They didn’t have such treatment when they came here~~~

“By the way, Qin Feng, did you meet your mentor when you reported today?”

Lin Hai asked again.

“I did.”

Qin Feng nodded.

“Who is it? We all came from Peking Union, know the professors, can guide you a bit.”

“Professor Yuan Rushan.”

As soon as this name was mentioned, the two exchanged a glance, utterly stunned and speechless.

Damn!

What is there to guide?

A big shot!

An authority!

Crack~

“Dr. Ding, a patient needs you to take a look.”

As the office fell into an awkward silence, a nurse pushed the door open and called out.

The female attending doctor’s eyes immediately lit up, as if seeing a savior.

“Alright, let’s go, go!”

It was unbearably awkward!

Couldn’t stay in that place any longer; it was too overwhelming!

Only Lin Hai was left with a speechless expression, not knowing what to say.

He stared at the young nurse, full of resentment.

Why call her and not me?

…..

“Haha~ Congratulations, I didn’t expect you to become Professor Yuan’s student.”

Lin Hai laughed dryly twice, patting Qin Feng’s shoulder, somewhat envious.

Next, Qin Feng followed Lin Hai to review the critical care patient’s case files, gaining a basic understanding of the department’s operations and systems.

Within the critical care department, apart from a few resident doctors, the rest of the dozen doctors are comprehensive attending physicians from various directions.

Moreover, more than half hold professorial titles from major medical academies in Beijing!

From both medicine and research perspectives, they are formidable presences!

Here, you won’t find those minor injuries like fractures or bruises, only life-threatening cases.

After reviewing, any patient needing surgery here was at least rated above grade 3.

There were even many cases of extremely high difficulty surgeries, where poor survival conditions of the patients made surgical arrangements impossible.

So as critical care doctors, their nerves are forever tense.

Any slight oversight could spell disaster for the patient.

At 2 AM,

Lin Hai finally finished his work and could take a good rest for a while.

Qin Feng, on the other hand, was still flipping through medical records. Indeed, there were quite a few patients here that couldn’t be found in Jiangcheng.

Especially with various critical symptoms and conditions, it was like entering a treasure trove for him.

However, when he saw those patients who had undergone one or multiple surgeries without any improvement, Qin Feng couldn’t help but frown.

If he could perform the surgery, perhaps the chances of recovery and survival could be greater.

Not satisfied~

Yes!

He was not satisfied with some completed surgeries and patients recovering post-operation!

“Dr. Qin, still looking at cases?”

At this moment, Lin Hai had already walked up behind him and said with a smile.

“Dr. Lin, I happen to have a case I want to ask you about.”

Qin Feng returned to his senses upon hearing and picked up a patient record in front of him,

“This rectal cancer patient, why was it resected to…..”

Lin Hai listened to his words, took the record, and was suddenly stunned to see the attending doctor’s name as Xue Weikun.

Xue Weikun was Director Meng Dawei’s student, and quite an outstanding one at that.

Otherwise, he couldn’t be an attending physician in the critical care department.

Most importantly, not only Qin Feng noticed this record, but every doctor in the critical care department was aware of it.

Because half a month ago, Meng Dawei just used this case for discussion at a research conference.

And the discussion was precisely about the surgical approach.

This patient collapsed at home, was rushed to the hospital, diagnosed with severe rectal bleeding, and confirmed as rectal cancer after pathological analysis.

At the time, because the situation was urgent, to save his life, it was essential to immediately remove the necrotic rectum. During the surgical plan discussion, as the attending physician, Xue Weikun directly opted for total resection.

Afterward, only one-fifth of the patient’s rectum remained. Although his life was saved, he completely lost almost all rectal function.

The family members chose resection when faced with the decision, but the result was equally unbearable.

After seeing all the test reports and case analysis, Meng Dawei was somewhat angry.

Because there was indeed a better solution, although much more difficult, but still worth trying.

“Qin Feng, where do you think the problem is with this surgery?”

Lin Hai listened to Qin Feng’s brief explanation of the surgery, knowingly asked with a smile.

“Dr. Lin, look, although this patient’s rectal cancer is quite severe, the cancerous area is clearly concentrated around these three bleeding points.

If we do not consider the spread of cancer cells, we can prioritize segmental resection, which allows at least half of the rectum to be preserved.

During later observations and treatment, medical means can be used for priority control.

If it can’t be preserved, then consider removing most of the rectum.

At least the patient’s financial condition allows us to do this.”

Hiss~

Upon hearing this, Lin Hai gasped sharply, eyes showing a shocked expression!

Because these words were almost identical to what Director Meng Dawei said at the discussion half a month ago!

If Director Meng hadn’t mentioned this treatment method, he might be dismissive of Qin Feng’s opinion.

But the reality is so surprising; Qin Feng just based on a mere record, noticed this significant difference in surgical plans.

Even his opinion matched the Director’s!

Thinking about this, he felt a chill on his scalp, shivers down his spine, and was incredibly shocked.

This guy… who exactly is he?

Fortunately, there was only him in the office; if these words were heard by other doctors, they would probably be just as shocked.

“Qin Feng, gulp~ how… did you think of this?”

Lin Hai controlled his slightly trembling hands, put down the record, and asked.

“Isn’t this quite normal?”

Qin Feng curiously glanced at him, puzzled,

“Considering from the perspective of the patient and their condition, the success rate of this type of surgery is still quite high, and the post-operative recovery can retain basic physiological functions.

Is there anything wrong?”

“Right, right! You are very right.”

Lin Hai immediately nodded upon hearing, his expression unsure whether to cry or laugh.

Bang!

Just then, the office door was suddenly pushed open again.

A nurse hurriedly ran in, somewhat out of breath, with a heavy look on her face.

“Dr. Lin, emergency brought in a critical case.”

Crash~

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng immediately sprang from his seat, even before Lin Hai could react.

“Alright, let’s go quickly!”

In the next moment, Lin Hai’s expression changed and he shouted sternly.

Qin Feng followed behind him, and the two followed the nurse rushing towards the rescue room.

At this moment, in the rescue room, a young man only 25 years old had lost his heartbeat after being hooked up to the monitor.

Beep~~~~

Two emergency doctors were desperately performing cardiac resuscitation, even though their white coats were soaked with sweat, they didn’t dare stop.

Sweat kept dripping from their faces, needing to switch every two minutes.

Thump thump thump~

In the gaze filled with heaviness and anxiety, dead-set on the monitor, a rush of footsteps rang out in the corridor.

“Dr. Lin! Come quick! The patient is about to go!”
