Chapter 307
“Dr. Ou, you’ve arrived just in time. This patient has a high fever of 39.2 degrees Celsius, and after reviewing his test results and other information, I believe a simple fever reduction is not sufficient!”
Zhou Can spoke directly to the point.
His approach was very astute, and he didn’t take advantage of his position to relentlessly criticize Dai Wei and Chen Hao.
He believed that Dr. Ou’s attitude just now must have given the two some hint.
Yet, he was puzzled. Many people in the department knew about his being favored by Director Wen. Did these two not know, or did they know just a little, hence didn’t take him seriously?
In the neurosurgery department, Zhou Can’s status might not be very high, but at least ordinary resident doctors don’t feel confident in front of him.
Even Cheng Gang, who used to treat him very rudely, is now submissive.
It’s just that they couldn’t lose face, hence they didn’t actively seek to please.
How could Dai Wei be so oblivious?
“Dr. Dai, were you angry just now because of this issue?” Dr. Ou asked after listening to Zhou Can’s explanation, looking towards Dai Wei.
“Uh… I might have been a bit too hasty just now. Mostly, I was worried that Dr. Zhou’s remarks might cause unnecessary disputes between medical staff and patients.” Dai Wei was quick to change his stance.
After realizing that Dr. Ou’s attitude towards Zhou Can was very friendly, he immediately calmed down.
“Just because he is a resident doctor, you think his suggestions are exaggerated? Let me tell you, Dr. Zhou Can has performed significantly in multiple director-level consultations and just today, he was part of a level 4 surgery led by Director Wen, making a substantial contribution. Never underestimate the opinions of junior doctors again.”
Dr. Ou seemed to have a not-so-bad relationship with Dai Wei.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said this.
Revealing so much about Zhou Can publicly meant that Dr. Ou has already inquired about Zhou Can’s deeds in the emergency department.
Tuya Hospital is neither large nor small, and the relationships among its staff are complex.
A doctor or nurse in the emergency department may just have some private relationship with Dr. Ou – even classmates.
Dr. Ou witnessed the entire process of Zhou Can gaining Director Wen’s appreciation yesterday, out of curiosity or other interests, he inquired about it.
Wow, this was incredible.
It turns out that this resident is extraordinary.
“Director-level consultations, significant achievements in level 4 neurosurgery… Oh my god! I really treated Dr. Zhou as that kind of arrogant, attention-seeking resident. That was my mistake, I’ll definitely correct it in the future.”
After hearing about Zhou Can’s outstanding achievements, Dai Wei was so shocked that he shrank his neck and quickly took remedial measures.
Apologizing immediately was a very wise approach.
“I’m not as incredible as Dr. Ou mentioned, at most, I was just a bit luckier. Regarding this patient right now, I strongly suggest taking his blood pressure. If he shows symptoms of low blood pressure, we must be highly vigilant.”
Zhou Can achieved his purpose and lightly moved on.
Then shifted to the main issue.
This would minimize Dai Wei’s embarrassment.
As for Chen Hao, the bootlicking resident, he was ignored by Zhou Can from the start.
He was almost like a nonentity.
“Xiao Chen, measure the patient’s blood pressure right now, don’t Just stand there.” Dai Wei had strong survival skills in the workplace.
Realizing Zhou Can’s capability and only able to look up to him, his attitude towards Zhou Can changed drastically.
And so did his attitude towards Zhou Can’s good friend, Jin Mingxi.
Chen Hao’s status plummeted drastically.
“This patient was being handled by Dr. Jin!”
Chen Hao muttered softly.
Obviously unadapted to this sudden change in treatment.
“Hurry up!”
Dai Wei’s gaze and tone were quite cold.
Only then did Chen Hao realize that things have changed. He obediently got a blood pressure monitor and measured the patient’s blood pressure.
Dr. Ou and the others waited beside for the blood pressure result.
“Is this blood pressure monitor broken? How come the systolic pressure is only 100mmHg?” After initially measuring the blood pressure, Chen Hao whispered.
“Xiao Chen, stop dawdling, is the result out? Dr. Ou and Dr. Zhou are waiting!”
Dai Wei ranked Dr. Zhou at the same level as Dr. Ou, which showed a strong sense of self-preservation.
Zhou Can didn’t feel anything special.
But Jin Mingxi was filled with envy.
Jin Mingxi was about to be promoted to a senior position at People’s Hospital before applying to Tuya as a resident. Was it a step down to a lower position now?
Look at Zhou Can; although also a resident, his implicit status was already catching up with a senior doctor.
While envious, Jin Mingxi was also secretly pleased.
With the recent events, Dr. Dai now knew Zhou Can’s capability and treated Zhou Can with great respect.
With Zhou Can’s support, Jin Mingxi believed that his days ahead would be better.
Dai Wei wouldn’t dare to exploit him without restraint as before.
Chen Hao, sweating profusely, borrowed a new blood pressure monitor from the nurse station.
Measured again.
“What’s going on, the systolic pressure is only 98mmHg now.”
Chen Hao could hardly believe the result.
“Idiot, even measuring blood pressure is a struggle. How could the patient’s blood pressure be so low? Let me do it.”
Dai Wei took over personally.
The result was the same, with a systolic pressure of only 98mmHg.
At this moment, Dr. Ou and Dai Wei realized the seriousness of the problem.
Experienced doctors usually regard a systolic pressure below 90mmHg as a threshold for shock.
The patient’s low blood pressure was close to shock levels, which scared them immensely.
