2439 The strange 'old' patient
One day, Zheng Ren and Su Yun came to the emergency department together.
Zhou Litao was no longer a chief resident, but there weren’t enough people to work during the National Day holiday, so he still took over the shift during the day.
After scanning the room, she did not see Zhou Litao. Su Yun asked a young nurse who was in a hurry,”where is director Zhou?”
Haitao was president Tang, but Su Yun still called him President Zhou.
“There’s an old patient. Director Zhou is doing an examination. ” The nurse said shyly.
The emergency department was not associated with the words “old patients.” This place was like a big car shop, and people came and left. No one would be like the Oncology Department, Neurology Department, and other Internal Medicine departments, where there would always be elderly patients who were repeatedly hospitalized, so much so that the patients would become friends with the doctors and nurses.
However, Zheng Ren did not take it to heart. He walked leisurely along the corridor, completely emptying his mind.
It was really tiring to go shopping with Yiren. It was much more tiring than wearing lead clothes and performing surgery. Zheng Ren gritted his teeth and could still hold on for two more days. If it was someone else, Zheng Ren felt that he would reject them directly without any hesitation.
“Chief Zhou, the key!” Su Yun knocked on the door of the treatment room.
Zhou Litao opened the door and handed the key to Su Yun. Su Yun peeked inside and opened the door to cui Lao’s office without paying much attention.
Zhou Litao cleaned the place every day and kept it clean, as if he was waiting for cui Lao to come back to work.
However, both Zheng Ren and Su Yun knew that the day would probably not come.
“What patient?” Zheng Ren asked casually.
“A child. He looks less than two years old.” Su Yun said.
Zheng Ren was stunned. A child who was not even two years old? It was actually an old patient from the emergency department?
In the past, he thought that Zhou Litao was good at the diagnosis and treatment of Internal Medicine emergency cases. He didn’t expect that Zhou Litao could also do it in Pediatrics emergency cases, and they even had feelings for each other.
Smiling, Zheng Ren sat on the chair.
“What’s the point of reading the medical records every day?” Su Yun said in disdain.
“No, I didn ‘t,” Zheng Ren said calmly.
“Boss, it’s the holiday period now. I’m looking for someone to accompany you every day because I’m afraid that you’ll have the idea of operating on little stone when you’re too emotional one day.” Su Yun said honestly. He rarely spoke in such a sincere tone, and it seemed like he was a little anxious.
“Yes, I’m just thinking about it.” “What do you think we’ll see if we send them to Germany to make the new algorithm, DeepMACT?” Zheng Ren asked.
“The screen is full of tumor cells.” “In his condition, any treatment is meaningless,” Su Yun said with certainty.
“The cover of CELL looks really shocking.” Zheng Ren held the medical record in his hand as he looked straight ahead and said indifferently.
CELL had made a cover for the new algorithm, DeepMACT.
This new algorithm and new examination could allow doctors to quickly find the transfer site of cancer cells that had transferred to all parts of the body, and the efficiency was increased by more than 300 times. In the past, humans would have needed several months to complete such a large workload.
This was a leap in technology, and Zheng Ren was very interested in it.
Not only that, but the technology platform could also show which transfer sites had been combined with the antibody drug and which had been missed.
According to researchers, 23% of the transfer sites were missed by antibody drugs, which might be one of the reasons for cancer recurrence.
Unfortunately, he had discovered it a little too late. This new algorithm, DeepMACT, was one of the best methods Zheng Ren could think of, but it did not seem to be applicable to Little Rock.
“All you think about is these useless things.” “If you can pick up the call before the 15th, you’ll be considered successful,” Su Yun said with disdain. Do you have any plans for the future?”
Zheng Ren shook his head. Plan? Even if he won the Nobel Prize, he would still have to undergo surgery in the hospital.
His original plan was to promote TIPS so that more patients with late-stage liver cirrhosis and a large amount of ascites could be treated.
However, after completing the mission in the Alps, under the strong push of the Bruch family, the purpose of promoting TIPS was almost achieved.
The effect was even more significant than winning the Nobel Prize. Also, from the number of surgeries completed, Lanke company had also benefited greatly.
This was a win-win cooperation.
Seeing that Zheng Ren was deep in thought, Su Yun raised her brows and was about to say something when the sound of a child crying came from outside the house.
“Baby, be good. Don’t cry, don’t cry.” The mother’s warm and caring voice came in.
‘This should be the old patient that Zhou Litao saw,’ Zheng Ren thought.
If a child of this age did not have any congenital diseases, they would not become “old” patients.
Zheng Ren took a curious glance. The diagnosis was still clear: Xuxu’s acute gastroenteritis.
It might be due to the patient’s family feeding the child incorrectly, or the child’s immunity was relatively low. Zheng Ren didn’t think much of it and said indifferently,””When will big Chu and little Chu arrive?”
“Not yet. They’re busy at home too. They don’t have time.” Su Yun said,”don’t go back to Haicheng for the time being. If you do, you’ll definitely be scolded by the director.” When I said I was looking at the Maple leaves, they didn’t have the mood to go to work. “
Zheng Ren chuckled. He remembered that Department Director pan was still in good spirits when he had a video call with him two days ago. The treatment effect of Marni blue bacteria was not bad. However, Zheng Ren did not understand. Su Yun was the one who came up with the plan to look at Fengye. How did it become his fault?
The child’s crying outside the house suddenly changed its tone. Zhou Litao shouted anxiously,”turn your head, don’t choke!”
Then, he heard the sound of vomiting and the footsteps of the medical staff.
Su Yun’s nose twitched.”Why is it so smelly?”
Zheng Ren sniffed the air. There was indeed a faint stench. If he vomited, there would be no foul smell. Could it be that the child vomited and had diarrhea? If this was the case, it meant that the inflammation of acute gastroenteritis was very serious and needed to be hospitalized for treatment.
Su Yun walked to the door curiously. She stood half inside and half outside, watching the emergency treatment.
“Boss, something doesn’t seem right.” Su Yun said with a frown.
“Eh? What’s wrong?” Zheng Ren asked.
“The child vomited not just the contents of his stomach, but also his feces.”
“…” Zheng Ren was stunned for a moment. If he vomited feces, the first thing he had to consider was the serious intestinal obstruction.
In general, abdominal pain would first appear when intestinal obstruction was encountered. If it really reached the level of vomiting feces, it would be very serious!
Most importantly, when Zheng Ren took a look at the child’s system panel, there was no diagnosis of intestinal obstruction at all!
Zheng Ren was puzzled. He rarely questioned the big pig’s trotter’s diagnosis now, as it was all useless. Although he didn’t completely believe it, he still had to do some tests to confirm whether the diagnosis of the big pig trotter was correct.
However, the truth told Zheng Ren that the pig trotter was right every time.
It was just acute gastroenteritis, but he vomited out the contents of his intestines, and it was even feces that was located lower?
Zheng Ren stood up abruptly and strode out.
