"Chest enhanced CT."
"Chest enhanced CT."
"Chest enhanced CT."
Liu Banxia, Chen Xuehai, and Meng Qingfan shouted in unison.
After shouting, the three of them laughed again, feeling much more relaxed.
"I’ll contact the patient’s parents. If possible, we’ll go ahead and seal it up. No need for Director Chen to be busy for so long, you can take this surgery." Meng Qingfan said with a smile.
"Sure, then I won’t be polite. After wrangling with this patient for so long, we’ve finally caught the culprit. Liu Yiqing, well done." Chen Xuehai said.
Liu Yiqing was left grinning foolishly.
Everyone understood now that a seal was needed, which meant it was likely an arteriovenous malformation in the lungs. Although the enhanced CT hadn’t been done yet, this was roughly the situation.
No matter if others had considered this possibility, Liu Yiqing was the first to mention it. Although it wasn’t confirmed at the time, it was still a contribution.
After all, based on the current X-ray image and the previous judgment, it was almost certain.
It’s just about sealing off the connection between the arteries and veins, letting them each return to their homes and find their mothers.
"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, from the looks of it, are you able to make a diagnosis?" Qiu Mingyuan asked.
"Almost, once we do the enhanced CT, everything will be clear. Surgical intervention will be needed, but the surgery isn’t very difficult. There’s probably a ruptured vessel, and we’ll also need to drain the right thoracic cavity later." Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Wait a little longer, we can soon complete the enhanced CT. Once we have definite information, you can also report back to the school. Want to wait until the surgery is done? You can take my car on the way back."
"That works, we’ve been waiting this long already. I’ll come by to pick you up after you get off work tomorrow, and we can go home together then." Qiu Mingyuan nodded.
"We arrived at the hospital at 4:27 PM, and now it’s 10:42 PM. More than six hours, we’ve really come a long way."
"That’s actually pretty quick. Even though our grand consultation didn’t play its expected role, you never know when someone might come up with a good idea." Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"If we had been bolder today, listened to Liu Yiqing, and directly performed the chest enhanced CT on the patient, it would’ve saved a lot of time and could’ve prevented another episode of ventricular fibrillation."
"But in medicine, things aren’t that clear-cut. Without clear indications, such an invasive exam, combined with his health condition, requires caution."
"Otherwise, if anything went wrong, it would be our responsibility. Even if we’re thinking of the patient and trying to diagnose the condition, it’s still not okay. Often, we’re guided by the results."
Qiu Mingyuan chuckled, "I’ve often heard you talk about responsibility, and today I’ve finally seen it. It’s indeed very meticulous, even someone who doesn’t understand medicine like me can feel it."
"Decisions aren’t easy to make, and are there many similar patients around? Is there no chance to take a risk and try the test?"
Qiu Mingyuan’s words amused everyone nearby.
"Comrade Qiu, it’s quite common." Xu Yino said.
"A lot of times, the boundaries are very blurred, just like Teacher Liu said, result-oriented. For example, in emergency rescue, some include invasive procedures."
"If successful, if you save a life, even if your technique is not the best, it’s still a credit. If you don’t save them, even if your technique is precise, it’s in vain."
"This is under precise technique, and even a tiny mistake that doesn’t affect the rescue won’t work. Wait for the conversation, wait for the investigation, wait to find out the truth, and then talk."
"I understand, just like your rumored romance with my Brother Liu." Qiu Mingyuan joked.
"I’m baffled. I was there too. Instead of snapping such a handsome guy, why snap you guys? If there are rumors about me and you, that’s more reasonable, what’s it got to do with Brother Liu?"
"He’s older, and I’m the young hunk. That guy was really low-level; seems like he needs to improve his scheming level."
"Hehe, Qiu, just wait, I’ll send a message to Yueyue shortly." Xu Yino said with a giggle.
She didn’t mind Qiu Mingyuan’s teasing at all, probably because they were quite close. She would often go to Liu Banxia’s house to play with Qiaoqiao, and Qiu Mingyuan even helped them buy the apartment this time, he’s a genuine little brother.
Now that they’ve got a lead on the patient’s condition, everyone’s feeling pretty relaxed.
In fact, if it were Xu Yino’s usual self, she might well have urged Liu Banxia to arrange a late-night snack.
But today’s situation is quite special, they need to see how the patient’s final condition turns out.
Qiu Mingyuan is quite relaxed now. He took several photos here and sent them to Xiao Yue. It’s both to show off and to report his location.
He didn’t go wild outside; he’s doing proper business.
"Teacher Liu, the diagnosis is confirmed. Single pulmonary arteriovenous malformation at the bottom of the right lung, with a small amount of pleural effusion on the right side of the chest."
After waiting for a while, Su Wenhao ran over, full of excitement.
Ding! Task completed for the patient with elevated heart rate
Gained 300 experience points, Glory Points +2
This task rating is Flawless, gaining 300 experience points, Glory Points 3 + 2
Although it wasn’t a perfect rating, Liu Banxia still pumped his fist. The diagnosis is clear; as long as the blood vessel is sealed, the guy won’t have any issues.
"Brother Liu, it really is, huh, what does it mean exactly?" Qiu Mingyuan asked curiously.
"It’s just that normally, arteries and veins are two separate blood vessels, and now they accidentally connect," Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Sometimes when he’s emotionally agitated or under other conditions, his venous pressure can suddenly rise, causing symptoms like nosebleeds or ventricular fibrillation."
"But there’s really no problem now. Old Chen can handle it within an hour. It’s truly relaxed, and we can be at ease."
Qiu Mingyuan heard it half understood, but that’s just how it is. As long as it’s related to blood vessels, managing it well is key.
He genuinely experienced it once; otherwise, he wouldn’t know that diagnosing a condition could be so dangerous.
"All right, the diagnosis and treatment for this patient have been fully completed, so in the next period, we need to continue to do a good job in receiving patients. There are still some inebriated and injured patients; let’s finish receiving them and take a good rest," Liu Banxia shouted.
The group’s morale was pretty good, seeing the dawn of victory. Only when the patient finishes surgery and safely leaves the stage would it be a true moment of triumph.
"This time it’s settled; our small campus emergency rescue knowledge activity really has no problems," Qi Wentai said appreciatively.
"Yeah, otherwise, I wouldn’t have rushed over," Qiu Mingyuan said.
"But I think even if later another condition came up and it wasn’t rescued, it doesn’t prove that this activity was meaningless, right? After all, the on-site rescue was very successful."
"Of course, my view isn’t hoping for the activity’s failure, nor for Xue Gang to have issues. It’s merely talking about my personal opinion."
Liu Banxia patted his shoulder, "Don’t worry, no one will overthink it. Remember what I said to you earlier? Although it might not have a big impact, it’s ultimately not perfect."
"Because if he really couldn’t be rescued due to ventricular fibrillation after being admitted, unless we did a post-mortem, it would be hard to identify his true cause of death."
"One possible result is that his parents are generous and won’t pursue the school’s and the student’s responsibilities. They might pursue, then reconcile, and that matter would be just so."
"A small possibility involves conducting a post-mortem to clarify the true cause of death. Only then would the pulmonary arteriovenous malformation be discovered, but post-mortem chances are very slim."
"After all, in our country’s mindset, maintaining a complete body is seen as the greatest respect for the deceased. As parents, they wouldn’t wish for their child to undergo a full autopsy post-mortem."
"Imagine how impactful that would be? The hospital wouldn’t mind as much; the key is that student who played soccer with you, your school, and finally the child’s parents."
"It’s actually quite a complicated matter, these are potential outcomes. It’s not easy to accept, but that’s generally how it goes, we’ve seen too much."
"Oh my, the implications are so extensive," Qiu Mingyuan sighed.
"That’s why President Qi is so delighted; the current outcome is the most perfect result," Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Not only does our activity have greater promotional space, but it also doesn’t cause any unnecessary negative impact. Otherwise, there would be some regrets."
"The current outcome is not only that the person who kicked the ball won’t be blamed, but they’ll be thanked. Otherwise, this malformation might never be discovered, and who knows with emotional agitation and no rescue nearby."
"Don’t think I’m joking; his malformation isn’t particularly severe, otherwise, it would have shown in childhood. You can’t say there’s none, nosebleeds are symptoms, but ignored ones."
"Liu Yiqing, you performed exceptionally! Do you want a reward of a packet of instant noodles with two eggs? Without your input, we might have delayed doing the enhanced CT."
"Yes, I want to add a sausage too; I didn’t eat well at dinner," Liu Yiqing replied.
Don’t underestimate that it’s not costing much; effort must be made to fight for it.
Qiu Mingyuan was greatly amused, actually here it’s quite relaxed and joyful unless they diagnose complex conditions for patients.
