The corner of Jiang Tingxu’s mouth twitched a few times. After putting on the white coat, she turned from the back of the chair and walked straight out of the office.
When she came back, she had taken her dinner in the canteen before she began to receive patients.
…
Around eight o’clock in the evening, Jiang Tingxu finally finished receiving the first wave of patients. She stood up, took a cup of water, and gulped it down in a few mouthfuls.
She had wanted to rest for a while, but the nurse’s shout came from outside, “Dr. Jiang!”
“What’s wrong?”
“The heart rate of the patient in the VIP ward has stopped!”
Heart rate had stopped?
Jiang Tingxu did not even have time to put the cup back in its original position. Anyway, it was thrown everywhere, and she had already rushed out.
When she arrived at the VIP Ward, the room was full of people.
These people must have wanted the patient to die immediately, right?
So they were all stuck here?
“Everyone, get out!” they shouted.
There were already nurses by the bedside making first aid preparations. When they saw Jiang Tingxu coming over, they said, “Dr. Jiang.”
Jiang Tingxu didn’t have time to look at the people in the room. She directly instructed the nurse, “Get everyone out.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Jiang Tingxu finished speaking, she had already checked the patient. Before the equipment was pushed over, she began to perform artificial heart resuscitation.
The nurse also chased everyone out of the ward. Jiang Tingxu calmly gave her instructions, “Open up the venous passage. Epinephrine 0.5, intramuscular infusion.”
“Yes!”
At this moment, in the corridor outside the ward, a nurse pushed the equipment and rushed over.
“Everyone please make way.”
“Dr. Jiang, the defibrillator is here.”
“Prepare to defibrillate!”
The defibrillator was quickly activated, and the patient’s chest was quickly wiped dry with a dry cloth.
Then, the hand-controlled defibrillator electrode plate was applied with a special conductive adhesive.
After confirming the position of the hand-controlled defibrillator electrode plate:
“First defibrillator 200J.”
“Roger, first defibrillator 200J.”
Bang!
However, there was no movement on the monitor.
“Second defibrillator, 300J.”
“Roger, second defibrillation, 300J.”
Bang Bang!
This time, there was movement on the monitor. It rose from zero to 40, then slowly rose to 42,45,48,53… finally, it rose to 62.
“He’s recovered!”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Their lives were finally saved this time.
The people outside the ward heard the movement inside. Naturally, they also heard the conversation between the doctor and the nurse and wanted to come in.
However, the moment they stepped through the door, they were stopped by the nurse.
“Family members, you can’t come in now.”
“Wasn’t the resuscitation successful? Why can’t we come in yet?”
Jiang Tingxu raised her head at this moment and looked at the young man who insisted on coming in.
“Who are you to the patient?”
“I’m his son, his biological son!”
Jiang Tingxu nodded.
“Alright, if you want to speed up your father’s death, then come in.”
The young man did not dare to move after hearing this. He even pulled Mrs. Fu who was beside him. From the looks of it, they should be mother and son.
However, this Mrs. Fu looked very familiar but she just could not remember the name of this person.
Jiang Tingxu tidied up the defibrillator and then checked the patient’s condition. She knew very well that even if the patient was saved this time, it might not be the case the next time.
The patient’s condition was terrible.
“Pay close attention to the patient’s condition. If there’s any problem, call me at any time!” she instructed the nurse.
“Yes, Dr. Jiang.”
Walking to the door, Jiang Tingxu reminded the large group of people that were outside again.
“If there are family members who want to go in, only one person can go in.”
