Chapter 640: Medicine cannot be about saving face Chapter 640: Medicine cannot be about saving face “She has abdominal pain, do you think it’s the pain from a threatened miscarriage?” Sun Yubo interrupted her again, at this moment only the most crucial diagnostic results were needed.
“This, further examination is needed, we need an ultrasound–”
“Just tell me if you’re certain that her pain is from the uterus?” Sun Yubo raised his voice, not allowing the person before him to miss the point of his question.
Shen Xifei inhaled sharply: If she’d known, she wouldn’t have come; the people from General Surgery Department Two are really terrifying.
Where to press, perform the four-step prenatal palpation? The patient has abdominal pain and other issues, she did press and measure the fundal height, but she can’t remember how to diagnose appendicitis. Moreover, the patient is thin, not chubby, she dares not press randomly. Shen Xifei nervously raised her hands to the sides of her hair, repeating the old refrain, “If we do an ultrasound, the results will be very clear, Teacher.”
Is this an emergency consultation for obstetrics and gynecology? If so, why call someone from obstetrics and gynecology, just directly consult the ultrasound machine.
“We can wait for the ultrasound results, and then we in obstetrics and gynecology can take a look at what the results are,” Shen Xifei added, feeling quite satisfied with her answer.
“You need a requisition form for an ultrasound, right? How do you plan to write the patient’s clinical symptoms and diagnosis? How will you write the purpose of the examination? Are you prepared to write that her uterus hurts or something else?” Sun Yubo asked through gritted teeth, thinking if this person had been under his tutelage, he would definitely have lashed out with the teaching whip by now.
When Shen Xifei heard this question, her gaze inadvertently returned to his face.
The others, upon seeing her look, understood instantly: The patient was from general surgery, so isn’t it the general surgeon’s job to write the requisition form? Why do they need her to write it?
“We asked you to come here for an emergency consult, just for this–!” Sun Yubo felt like he was about to cough up blood from his lungs, his hand fiercely clutching his chest.
“Stop wasting time talking to her. Hurry up and call her teacher over,” Tan Kelin’s cold voice spat out.
Sun Yubo thought it over, it was his mistake. He’d assumed that the graduate student from obstetrics and gynecology would be at least at the level of Student Xie. They didn’t have high expectations, just thought that someone from obstetrics and gynecology, being more specialized in this area, could perform a couple of palpations like Student Xie, and that would suffice. He hadn’t anticipated that this person probably couldn’t even recall what relevant examination to perform. It’s okay if you can’t remember, but you should report it to us early so that we can contact someone else. At a time , when a patient’s life is at stake, why is a student so concerned about saving face? Even clinical doctors wouldn’t dare be so concerned with face.
Picking up his phone, Sun Yubo contacted obstetrics and gynecology again.
Shen Xifei’s complexion was pale.
Li Qi’an, who stood at the door observing, quietly discussed with Xie Wanying, “Did she do something wrong?”
Otherwise, why would she be scolded by the teacher? Everyone could tell, the teacher was very dissatisfied with how this person examined the patient. Especially the two sentences from Tan Kelin, which completely negated what this person had done.
“Like Teacher Sun said, she needs to first determine whether the patient is having a miscarriage, whether the pain is from the uterus. She didn’t give the patient the relevant test,” Xie Wanying said.
“How do you conduct this test?” Li Qi’an asked.
Doesn’t the classmate know? To ask such a question in front of the teacher? Xie Wanying shot a glance at Student Li: The teacher is listening, aren’t you afraid of being reprimanded?
Li Qi’an immediately retracted his head, clamping his mouth shut.
When Shen Xifei heard their conversation, she felt a surge of relief: So, it wasn’t just her who didn’t remember, these students of Tan Kelin didn’t remember either.
