Chapter 465: Chapter 244: The Protagonist Hasn’t Appeared? (Part 2)
"But there’s no doubt about the skill."
"Deng Duanniu said that your current tendon suturing technique is among the best in the entire State, even compared to the senior professors of hand surgery!"
Han Pingxiao is from orthopedics. Lu Cheng previously participated in a statewide microsurgery skills competition and won first place in the tendon suturing track, which is one of the orthopedic tracks.
So it’s reasonable for Han Pingxiao to hear about Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng and Deng Duanniu chatted for a while longer, then they heard a commotion outside: "Oh, what, if the realignment doesn’t work, just transfer us or send us to the operating room."
"What were you doing before?"
Han Pingxiao’s calm voice came through: "I had a conversation with you before and got your signature, it’s all here in black and white. Didn’t I tell you this?"
"There’s a chance manual realignment might not work, and it’s possible we might need to perform an open realignment in the operating room."
"Did I emphasize that?"
The patient retorted, "You just said there’s a chance!"
"A chance means it could happen, right? And I told you from the beginning that your dislocation is quite special."
"I suggested you directly go for surgical realignment, but you refused and wanted to try manual realignment first?"
"I also advised you to get a second opinion at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, but you didn’t want to go. Isn’t that right?" Han Pingxiao said.
Dr. Liu from the emergency department also said, "Brother, we’re all adults. When you had the conversation and signed, I was there with these other patients."
"You create such a fuss, but aren’t being reasonable."
"There are witnesses and evidence, if the realignment didn’t work, it just didn’t work. Is there a need to make such a noise about it?"
"If you don’t trust our skill, Dr. Han already told you to get a second opinion at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."
A woman’s voice weakly came through, "That’s where we’re coming from."
"Don’t speak!" the man shouted.
Upon hearing this, Han Pingxiao’s expression and tone changed: "You’ve hidden your treatment history?"
"This can all be checked online!"
Han Pingxiao immediately printed out their medical records: "Look for yourself, isn’t this what you said? You claimed you came directly to our hospital for treatment without going elsewhere, why is that?"
"Did you attempt manual realignment at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital?"
"How many times did you have it done?"
Lu Cheng and Deng Duanniu heard the argument and walked out of the doctor’s office, arriving outside the emergency room to begin dispersing the crowd: "Stop watching, go about your own business, there’s nothing to see here."
Deng Duanniu, a veteran of the emergency department, immediately called security and the medical affairs department.
The patient had concealed their treatment and medical history, and now that the realignment was unsatisfactory, they were causing trouble. This sort of situation needs to be handled with caution as it can lead to medical disputes.
After dispersing the patients at the door, Lu Cheng instructed the on-duty nurse to continue maintaining order and followed Deng Duanniu into the emergency room.
Upon seeing Deng Duanniu and Lu Cheng, Han Pingxiao said, "How about this, this is the emergency outpatient room and there are other patients here."
"We can discuss your issue in a different place."
"Our security and medical affairs people will be here shortly. If you need, we can also retrieve your previous treatment records."
"Let’s see, whose responsibility is this matter?!"
The man cursed at the woman, "I told you to keep quiet."
The woman said, "That’s just how it is, we need to solve the problem. If the realignment doesn’t work, then surgery it is."
"What else can we do?"
Realizing he was in the wrong and seeing others looking at him with strange expressions, the man said, "So, even then, is the failure to realign entirely my fault?"
Han Pingxiao said, "Brother, I explained it to you, not all dislocations can be solved with manual realignment."
"That’s how it is at any hospital, you shouldn’t be misled by sensationalized online posts, alright?"
"Those online claims about instant realignment refer to the simplest radial head subluxation!"
"Your case is a posterior shoulder dislocation, which is a complex shoulder joint dislocation. Let me just say, if you can find anyone who can instantly realign a dislocation of this nature!"
"Do whatever you want if you can."
"People don’t dare to put up videos of manual realignment for this type of dislocation! I’m laying it out for you."
Radial head subluxation is something undergraduate medical students understand; it’s the simplest joint dislocation, and diagnosing it doesn’t even require imaging, just a medical history is enough.
...
Soon, the group moved to the doctor’s office.
The security and medical affairs personnel on duty also arrived.
Lu Cheng was not on duty, but as a hospital staff member, he wore a lab coat, allowing him to work in the department.
After everyone sat around, the medical affairs personnel on duty said, "Lin Daomeng, according to the data we retrieved from the network, it shows you do indeed have a treatment history at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in our State."
"Come over and see if this information is true or not?"
"According to the information we got from the emergency department of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, they suggested you undergo surgical realignment after manual realignment failed, but you refused."
"Moreover, when receiving treatment here, you concealed those medical records..."
Lin Daomeng’s eyelids flickered: "I just want the best solution. Isn’t it true that this realignment issue cannot be resolved without surgery?"
Han Pingxiao said, "Manual realignment failure is an indication for surgery, so what are you hesitating about?"
"The colleagues at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and I have already given you enough chances. They attempted realignment twice, and I attempted once. All three attempts failed."
