“One month after the operation, just in time for the Chinese New Year, the patient suddenly vomited blood.” Director Kong continued, “Later he was hospitalized and found a large area of necrosis inside the tumor. However, because the operation was done too hastily, the tumor was too large and the necrotic tissue Too much. It breaks the balance and causes problems in the body’s absorption. In the later stage, the abscess corrodes an artery, causing massive bleeding.”
"Emergency emergency treatment, the patient still died 13 days later."
"Later, the patient's family thought it was a problem with Director Cao's surgery and kept complaining. Even with the court's verdict, it was ultimately ruled to be a medical malpractice."
Zheng Ren spread his hands, it was really bad to encounter this kind of thing.
"Do you think this is Director Cao's own business?" Director Kong's eyes were a little swollen because he stayed up late. But behind his swollen eyeballs, his gaze was still sharp.
"I tied it a little too hastily and shouldn't have done it," Zheng Ren said frankly.
"I thought so at first," Director Kong said, "But when the matter settled, I saw Director Cao was much older and very haggard during a meal. I only found out the truth after asking."
"The patient's family is very poor. As you know, an interventional surgery requires at least 10,000 yuan. The patient's family simply cannot afford 6-8 surgeries. After repeated communication and exchanges with the patient's family, we signed 3 informed consent forms. , Director Cao just completed the operation."
"But signing is useless, you know this too." Director Kong said calmly, "If something happens, who cares whether you sign or not, a medical accident will make you exhausted."
Having said this, Director Kong raised his head and looked at Zheng Ren, staring at it for a few seconds before continuing leisurely.
"Then Director Cao had the intention of quitting. After so many years, he has been earning about the same amount of money. I can't say he is rich and powerful, but he can still be middle-class and provide for the elderly. The work is getting harder and harder to do. At that time, I felt that he I want to find a peaceful place to retire.”
"Otherwise, do you think Zhou Chunyong can go to heaven? For Gao Shaojie, a deputy director told him to go directly to the clinic."
Zheng Ren smiled.
"This is not an extreme matter. You have experienced what happened to Director Miao personally. Let me ask you, does it make sense?" Director Kong looked into Zheng Ren's eyes, his gaze a bit threatening.
"Never forget your original intention. These four words come from many sources. It is mentioned in "Shang Shu Yi Xun Xian Yi De", and it is said that it is also in the "Lotus Sutra". The Tao Te Ching says, be careful to end as you began, which is also the same truth."
"Shen, you have to do it. The older you get, the less courageous you are. Boss Zheng, what you have done this year scares me." Director Kong smiled sarcastically.
Zheng Ren's eyes fell on the thick files and he felt something in his heart.
I am making great progress all the way, and I don’t know how many people are behind me who are contributing. Chang Yue's work seems unimportant, but in fact it is the cornerstone. The same goes for Director Kong, who silently helped him find and fill in the gaps.
It's just that he didn't know that he was driving, so Director Kong was confused.
The amount of surgery was heavy, he had seen this before. But I have never seen such a large amount without causing any problems. Zheng Ren also knew that the reason why nothing happened was because of his caution and... the luck value and the protagonist's halo given by the system.
"It really shocked me. Now when I look at these medical records, I feel that they are unreal, even if I have accumulated them day by day." Director Kong said lightly, "I dragged you here from Haicheng. You have to help me get on the horse and send you on a journey. Otherwise, the medical water in the imperial capital is deep and I'm afraid you will choke. But you, Boss Zheng, are a natural swimmer. Before I came back for the earthquake relief work, you started swimming in the sea with various swimming styles."
Having said this, Director Kong's face became much more relaxed.
"Do you think what I'm talking about is medical risks?" Director Kong then said with a smile, "For patients, this is an unbearable weight in life. Let's just say that Director Cao's patient, if he doesn't With the surgery, he could live for one month. If he had the surgery, he would be gone."
"Maybe it would be better if you had the surgery done by you, but you can't expect everyone to be like you."
"Life is not addition and subtraction. In the end, these philosophical speculations are the coldest and most boring things."
"What we are doing is like blowing a big bubble." Director Kong looked at Zheng Ren and Su Yun, "Can the bubble not burst? Impossible."
"Director, are you a little pessimistic?"
"What you think of Big Bubble and what I'm talking about are probably two different things." Director Kong smiled and said, "From hanging a pot to save the world to now treating diseases and saving people, there is nothing wrong with it. What I want to say is to slow down, and then slow down. Be careful. From beginning to end, caution comes first.”
Director Kong said, feeling a little tired. He stood up and put the file bag in the cabinet behind him. There were more than a dozen similar portfolios neatly arranged inside, like soldiers about to be inspected.
Patting Zheng Ren on the shoulder, Director Kong said, "Go home and sleep. We have remote surgery to do tomorrow."
"Yeah." Zheng Ren was stunned by what Director Kong said, but he refused to explain clearly. Maybe Director Kong himself didn't know how to explain it clearly.
After sending Director Kong to the car, Zheng Ren and Su Yun looked at each other and went to the outdoor smoking room in tacit agreement.
It was already very cold in December, and the smoking room could only keep out the wind but not keep warm.
Holding the cigarette between his cold fingers, Zheng Ren watched the misty smoke rising, thinking a lot in his heart, but he couldn't remember what he was thinking.
"Boss, Director Kong has given you something he has been pondering all his life but never understood." Su Yun said with a smile, "This is the mantle."
"No," Zheng Ren said, "Now I feel that if I think too much, I really won't grow taller. There are countless reasons... What is the next sentence?"
"Just do it if you are stubborn!"
"Hey, I still have to be more cautious in the future. As for the rest, I don't know about it yet."
"The director has said that philosophical speculation will become very boring in the end. These things say they are meaningful, but in fact they are meaningless. People are always going to die, and all we do is linger on."
"Your words are too dark."
"Originally, you said that after Director Cao performed the operation, the patient's life would be shortened by 1 or 2 months. Is it worth it just to take a chance?"
Zheng Ren felt that the more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He quickly finished his cigarette, put it out in the ashtray, and said with a smile, "I'm back. If you know less, you will be warmer, what do you think?"
"I'm sure I'll have surgery tomorrow."
Su Yun saw that Zheng Ren didn't want to talk about this and knew that it was an unsolvable problem, so he changed the topic. But that sentence would be warmer if he knew less, which made his thinking pause slightly for half a second.
There are thousands of truths, but if you are stubborn, just do it.
At the end of the day, if everyone thought about philosophy, the world would stop spinning. Do what you can do, that's all.
"No problem." Zheng Ren answered affirmatively.
