"It's you... the thing in the banyan tree... let me go..."
The patient who was fixed on the stretcher howled in pain, and suddenly burst into tears. All the anger and confusion disappeared, and only the fear of death and the humbleness of survival remained on that distorted face: " Please, I don't want to die... let me go..."
Gu Jun frowned deeply, why did he seem to have seen me
Could it be that he is the person on the other end of the phone in Gurong Village? No, Gurong Village should have been emptied and quarantined long ago, and the population would not have been so large.
"Go away." The female nurse rushed over and pushed the patient away very skillfully. These nurses were all wearing walkie-talkie headsets. She pushed away and reported to the command center: "Orthopedics, patient No. 128 appeared The delirium state is suspected to be transforming into the bereavement stage."
"Oops..." Zhou Jiaqiang murmured, and then explained to the stunned interns: "This patient needs to be operated on immediately, and there is no way to save him when he reaches the death stage. Talking nonsense is a symptom of a patient beginning to transform, and it usually raises the alarm." To 'something in the banyan tree', don't know what that means."
Gu Jun suddenly remembered that the voice on the other end of the phone also said "something in the banyan tree", but didn't say "it's you", so he asked: "Brother Qiang, do they all say 'it's you' to others like this? "
"It seems... this is the first time I've seen it." Zhou Jiaqiang didn't care too much, "Deliriousness is a fragment of delusion due to illusions and hallucinations, and then emotional disorder, let's go."
They continued to move forward, and Gu Jun asked again: "Brother Qiang, where did these patients come from? Is it different from the banyan tree in the competition?"
"You know I can't say this, and I don't know." Zhou Jiaqiang said seriously, "Let's do our own clinical work first and save people."
But before they finished the long corridor, another patient suddenly appeared in a state of delirium and yelled at them uncontrollably: "The thing in the banyan tree, don't come here... let me go, don't... the thing in the banyan tree..."
Immediately another nurse rushed over, exclaiming, "Patient No. 143 has delirium!"
"It's really weird." Zhou Jiaqiang scratched his face in distress, "This batch of patients has just reached the second stage, so it shouldn't be so fast, it will take a few days..."
Everyone's faces darkened. And Gu Jun's mood is the most messy. It seems that he had inadvertent eye contact with patient No. 143 just now, and that patient went crazy... He acted as if he had seen him before, and the "thing in the banyan tree" was pointing again. he…
Gu Jun pressed his aching head, and the restless feeling became more intense, as if a hallucination was about to be triggered at any time.
Is the direct connection of the phantoms to these ficus sufferers? But there is still a similar scenario...
"Gu Jun, are you okay?" Wang Ruoxiang asked softly, but saw his face turn pale. She was a little surprised, Gu Jun was not so timid.
"It's nothing..." Gu Jun said hoarsely, "I feel a little uncomfortable seeing them like this." This was indeed his mood.
"Me too." Wang Ruoxiang pursed her lips, "I hope I can contribute a bit."
Brother Qiang told them not to stop. They walked all the way and soon arrived at a huge office. The place was already in chaos. Everyone was disrupted by the two patients whose condition suddenly worsened. The two groups of people needed to act immediately. .
However, in such an emergency situation, it is natural that those experienced and skilled veteran teams will perform the operation.
Zhou Jiaqiang handed over the five interns to the miscellaneous nurses of different groups, and went to work himself. And the five followed their respective nurses to report.
It was only then that Gu Jun knew that he was joining Dr. Zhu Ruiwen's team. He followed the miscellaneous nurses to the team's rest room, changing room, and operating room to get acquainted with the place first.
In the private office of the group, Gu Jun met Zhu Ruiwen, the chief surgeon, a friendly middle-aged man; Yan Haizhe, the anesthesiologist, and Zeng Jianguo, the first assistant, were all very kind; the third assistant was a young man of the same age who had just become a G-level staff People, Li Hualong.
But unlike them who were selected from the competition, Li Hualong entered the Tianji Bureau after finding a hospital for an internship like Brother Qiang did, and came out of regular training. Li Hualong was also very polite to him, but a little too polite. It's not difficult for Gu Jun to guess the reason, he came late but became the second assistant first, Li Hualong was arrogant and a little bit critical.
But now there are more important things. Both of them are focused on listening to the operation plan of patient No. 25 in the first operation in the afternoon given by team leader Zhu.
It was also at this time that Gu Jun heard a situation that made his heart twitch immediately, "It's just local numbness!?" He exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes." Zhu Ruiwen's face was full of seriousness, "The amputation operation of the patients with different banyan disease cannot be performed under general anesthesia, otherwise the patient will easily suffer from acute heart failure during the operation, and the failure rate of the operation will be even higher. And more than 80% of patients with general anesthesia, even if they wake up, will be completely unconscious...so we can only give patients local anesthesia."
Gu Jun was the only one in the office who knew about it for the first time, and also the only one who was speechless at this moment.
The surgery video played by the Ministry of Medicine at the competition venue had no sound. Professor Qin only said that patients in the second stage could be rescued, but did not say what the success rate of the surgery was, giving them the illusion of 100% success...
But... scapular girdle dissection, in layman's terms, is to saw off the whole hand and the shoulder part, and the operation time is estimated to be three hours.
Local anesthesia.
This time, it seems to be going back to the barbaric and bloody era before human beings had no anesthetics.
"This will test the patient's will." Zhu Ruiwen said encouragingly, "but it will test our will."
Gu Jun nodded silently, but his expression was still very bad. Li Hualong didn't take the opportunity to talk about him at this time, but patted him on the shoulder to encourage him: "It's okay, the success rate of 76% for local anesthesia is very high." Gu Jun is grateful for this, this person is not bad, I want to come Also, it is not easy to pass the review department.
He just got to know everyone, learned about today's operation plan, and had a boxed lunch in the lounge at noon, and the first operation was about to begin.
Gu Jun followed Zhu Ruiwen and the others to the locker room for disinfection and put on sterile equipment, which was no different from the preparation process for ordinary surgery.
However, in an ordinary operating room at this time, it is impossible for the patient to scream: "Ah... it hurts..."
"Huh, huh." Gu Jun followed a few people out of the locker room, and walked towards the open door of the operating room next to him. The peculiar smell in the air that was unique to the deformity of the banyan tree disease passed through the mask and continuously stimulated his nose, and his head hurt a little. up.
The spacious and bright operating room is well-equipped. A male patient is already lying on the operating table in a lateral position, connected to various instruments such as a ventilator and an anesthesia monitor. The torso and normal limbs are covered by a special leather body cover. The restrainer was completely bound, and only the left upper limb of the diseased side was exposed upwards, deformed and twisted.
Zhu Ruiwen took the lead and walked to the position of the chief surgeon. The anesthesiologist Yan Haizhe was already sitting by the anesthesia machine staring at various indicators.
"Help..." The patient kept struggling, crying and shouting.
Gu Jun could feel that his psychological pressure was rising rapidly. Even though he had experienced some things and had calm hands, the blood in his whole body still seemed to be congealing. This operating room pulled him back to the barbaric and bloody era before human beings had no anesthetics.
In contrast, the canine thoracotomy operating room where he operated in the morning seemed like a child's play house.
"Take your seats." Zhu Ruiwen came to the right side of the patient and sat down, the first assistant Zeng Jianguo was opposite the chief surgeon, Gu Jun stood under the chief surgeon, and the third assistant Li Hualong stood opposite him. Several nurses, such as equipment nurses and itinerant nurses, are also busy.
"You..." The patient on the operating table turned his head to look at them, and when he saw something, he suddenly screamed in panic: "Things in the banyan tree! No, don't..."
Gu Jun is very sure this time, the patient just made eye contact with him...
No. 128, No. 143, No. 25... Three patients, why, why it seems that I will accelerate the development of their disease, why!
Gu Jun's heart fell into a blank, something blocked his throat, and he felt uncomfortable... His head started to hurt again, cracking pain...
But in front of his eyes, the phantom light and shadow reappeared after half a month, and the scene of the surrounding operating room was rapidly fading away. In a few moments, he couldn't even hear the screams of the patients, and he fell into the In the illusion, the weird light and shadow gradually become real...
He seemed to have come to a huge and ancient banyan tree, and around him, figures knelt on the ground and worshiped the banyan tree.
