The Surgeon’s Studio Chapter 714 - Big Spender

Chapter 714: Big Spender

The A4 paper was much better than Nanchuan Town’s tissue paper and the writing was also much clearer. Unlike the seriously injured person sent down from Nanchuan Town, the tissue paper was already wet from the rain, and the handwriting was blurry. It looked like a lot of work.
This injured person had a thigh-grinding contusion. He underwent a thrombectomy at Pengxi Village Hospital and they had treated the issue of local ischemia.
On the paper, there was a simple record of the operation, and the suggestion for amputation was given—to operate as soon as possible, with the guidance of an experienced imaging doctor to assist the orthopedic doctor in amputation. The final note stated that the prosthetic limb would be sent by the German company Otobork and they would be provided with world-class prosthetic limbs.
The chief of the emergency department was stunned.
Under the current situation, how could he still think about things that were so far away in the future?
What he needed now was to save lives and not think about it… But he had done well enough. Not only had he removed the emboli from the blood vessels at the front line, he had also reduced the range of amputations as much as possible and even contacted the German company Otobork, which was the world’s number one manufacturer of artificial limbs.
“How expensive is this?” The chief of the emergency department clicked his tongue.
If it was just one or two, it would not matter. In the past few days, he had seen too many similar injuries. There were elderly, teenage girls, and even children of a few years old.
The doctors at the front were thoughtful but he did not know if they would be useful.
The emergency department chief knew that he could not understand this silhouette, so he immediately packed up the radiographic films and medical records. He carried the bag of radiographic films and went directly to the operating theater.
The Orthopedics Department had already reached the limit of adding beds and this was still the result of the first-aid emergency vehicles at the back and the owners of a large number of private cars constantly transporting the lightly injured people to the other provincial and city hospitals for treatment.
The doctors were all busy in the operating theater. Below them, there was only a chief resident who was in charge of post-operative treatment for all the injured patients with the assistance of the other relatively idle physicians.
The emergency department chief knew about the situation so he did not go to the ward area. Instead, he went directly to the operating theater outside the hospital.
“Old Lu! Are you on stage?!” After entering the main door, he did not change his clothes. Instead, he stood outside and shouted.
A nurse stuck her head out, took a look, and said, “I just got off the stage. Let me call him for you.”
Soon, a doctor wearing an isolation suit rushed over. As he walked, he answered the phone.
“Old Sui, what’s wrong?” Chief Lu asked.
“A patient who needs amputation was just sent from Pengxi Village Hospital with radiographic films and medical records. Take a look,” Chief Sui said.
Chief Lui was a little surprised. He said to the phone, “I’ll call you later.”
Then, he stuffed his phone into his jacket pocket, took the radiographic films, and started to read them under the incandescent light.
The hurried Chief Lu immediately fell silent. He looked at the radiographic films for a minute before he slowly put them down.
“You said that this was done in Pengxi Village Hospital?”
“Yes, there are medical records sent with it.”
“The person who performed the embolectomy is an expert. This silhouette shows the network of capillaries and tells me the best location for amputation. At the very least, there must be blood supply from the capillaries in order to reserve the skin flap.” Chief Lu immediately took out his phone and dialed a number as he said, “We need the operating theater outside the hospital and are coming over right away. It’s urgent.”
At this moment, all the gossip was described in the simplest words. Otherwise, there would be no time at all.
“Chief Lu, what’s wrong?” Chief Sui of the emergency department felt a trace of abnormality.
“I just received a call from Chief Li of the intervention department. Chief Wu of Shenzhen City asked how his subordinate, Professor Mu, is doing here. I told him that I don’t know. It seems that Chief Li said that Professor Mu is in Pengxi Village Hospital.”
Oh, so that’s how it is. The emergency department chief finally understood. If it was really a famous god overseeing the interventional surgery in Pengxi Village Hospital, then it was no wonder.
Chief Lu took out another radiographic film and analyzed them with fondness.
“Old Lu, how was the embolectomy?” Chief Sui asked.
“It was especially good. It was at least an interventional surgery of Chief Li’s level,” Chief Lu said affirmatively.
That was good. It seemed that there was hope for this batch of wounded.
Soon, the doorbell of the operating theater rang. Chief Sui opened the door without thinking.
Chief Li did not wait for the door to open and entered. He was wearing a white suit and slippers. It was obvious that he had just come down from the stage.
“What’s the matter? Can’t you tell me over the phone?”
“What’s the hurry?” Chief Li glared at him.
“There are a bunch of seriously injured people waiting for surgery on my side. How can I not be in a hurry?”
“Take a look at these radiographic films.” Chief Lu handed the radiographic films to him.
Chief Li of the Department of intervention took the radiographic films and took a look at them. He did not say anything else.
This was within Chief Lu’s expectations.
“This surgery was done beautifully. I reckon that it was done by Elder Wu’s disciple, Professor Mu. Therefore, I called you over when I saw it. You can also give Elder Wu an explanation,” Chief Lu said.
“This surgery…” Chief Li was a little hesitant.
“What? It wasn’t done well?”
“No, it was done too well. Although there were no images during the surgery, why do I feel that I can’t do it?” Chief Li simply admitted.
At this moment, what face or academic status was not important.
Usually, when academic status was in conflict, things that could kill people became insignificant after the flood of seriously injured people washed through.
Now, the important thing was to seize every moment to treat the injured. Other than that, everything else could be ignored.
“There are medical records here. Chief Li, take a look.” Chief Sui of the emergency department took out the A4 paper and said, “Professor Mu said that he has contacted the German company, Otto Bock, to provide prostheses so this surgery can be more unrestrained.”
The other two were speechless and stunned.
Otto Bock? A normal prosthetic limb cost at least 100,000 RMB and that was not even counting one of high quality. A large number of injured people who needed artificial limbs were all going to use Otto Bock products?
Wasn’t this a joke?
But they did not refute. At this moment, everything was said after careful consideration.
Very few people would say things that could not be done.
“All the patients with pelvic fractures in Pengxi Village Hospital received embolization surgery there. After the surgery, they were sent to a lower-level hospital for anti-shock treatment. The effect of the surgery was very good. You can refer to the data,” Chief Sui said conveniently.
Chief Li was stunned for a moment and asked, “How many cases were done?”
“200 cases.”
This was undoubtedly a shocking number.
“I’ll give Chief Wu a call.” Chief Li was silent for a few seconds before he picked up his phone and dialed.
“Chief Wu, we just received an embolic patient from Pengxi Village. It was done by Professor Mu. Oh, in less than three days, Pengxi Village has completed nearly 200 cases of pelvic fracture interventional embolization. It’s said that the patients recovered well after the surgery. Because it was after the surgery, they were not sent to us. You brought a good disciple.
“Huh? Impossible? How is it impossible? Professor Mu’s level can’t be that high? But he was brought up by you alone. Good, good. Don’t worry, I will contact him right away. This side is pretty good. You don’t have to come over since we have everything under control. Take care of your health.”
