Su Qingqing's brows furrowed as she heard the news from the other end of the phone.
"Okay, I got it. I'll be right back.”
After hanging up the phone, Su Qingqing looked at the office with a complicated expression. Then, she took off her white coat and turned to leave. It was probably too late to ask for leave. It was better to act first and report later.
"Qingqing, I've accepted a new patient. Why don't you come and receive him?”Du Ziqi stuck her head out of the door and said to the doctor's office.
However, after looking around and not seeing anyone, Du Ziqi looked at Zhang Yi and asked,""Zhang Yi, where's Su Qingqing? Where did he go? She should be receiving patients today."
Zhang Yi looked around and said,""I'll pick it up. Don't let the patient wait. I'll hand it over to her later.”
"Alright!" Du Ziqi nodded.
In the ward, Zhang Yi glanced at the old man sitting on the bed. Why was he in the Cardiology Department for kidney stones? Shouldn't he be in the urology department?
"What's the old man's blood pressure?" Zhang Yi asked the nurse who was doing the examination beside him.
“190/120mmhg。”
No wonder her blood pressure was very high.
"Grandpa? Where are you feeling unwell?”Zhang Yi asked the old man.
"My head is spinning, and my tongue is numb.”The old man rubbed his head and said with a bitter face.
Blood pressure higher than 180/120mmhg could easily lead to stroke, and the typical symptoms of stroke were dizziness, numbness in the tongue or half of the face, and even worse, slurred speech.
"Come, lie down and let me examine you.”Zhang Yi said as he gently smoothed the old man. He used the stethoscope to listen to his heart rate. There was a slight abnormality, but it was not a big problem.
"Grandpa? Don't you feel any pain in your stomach other than dizziness? Does it hurt here?" Zhang Yi gently pressed on the position of the kidney stone.
"Hey, it's not good if you don't press it. It hurts when you press it!”The old man sat up from the bed in pain.
Then, Zhang Yi contacted the doctor in the ultrasound room to do a bedside ultrasound. The ultrasound showed that there was a shadow with a diameter of 1.0mm in the old man's left kidney.
Under normal circumstances, stones larger than 1.5mm should be treated immediately with gravel surgery. However, this old man's stone was 1.0mm. He could consider medical treatment first. If the medical treatment could not remove the stone, then he could consider gravel surgery.
"Sir, let me tell you something. Your stomach hurts because you have kidney stones, so I'll prescribe you some oral medicine to see if you can expel the stones. If you can't, you'll have to consider surgery.
During this period of time, you must not do any strenuous exercise. Otherwise, the stones may fall into the ureter. At that time, not only will you have a stomachache, but you will also have to undergo surgery immediately.”Zhang Yi held up the report and explained it to the old man.
The old man didn't know if he heard it clearly, but he started to get nervous and asked,"Surgery? Was it so serious that he needed surgery? Then what should we do? Is it serious?"
Zhang Yi comforted the old man who was a little emotional and said,""It's okay. The stone isn't very big now. It can be treated with medicine.”
Hearing this, the grandpa heaved a sigh of relief and nodded."That's good. It's fine if it's not a big deal. I won't let my son and daughter come back, so as not to cause trouble and delay work.”
This was how a small county was like. The younger people all went to the bigger places to develop themselves. Only a lot of empty nesters were left at home. Some parents felt sorry for their children and said that they were not sick. They were afraid that their children would be worried and delay their work.
"Hey!" Zhang Yi sighed and comforted the old man before returning to the doctor's office.
Right now, the old man's primary condition was high blood pressure, which was already accompanied by dizziness and numbness of the tongue. It was very likely to cause a stroke.
Aspirin should be taken immediately to reduce the risk of a temporary ischaemic attack (TIA) and subsequent stroke.
The initial treatment of high blood pressure should choose a small effective dose, and gradually increase it to a sufficient amount according to the needs. It must not be reduced to the ideal blood pressure at one time, otherwise it will cause insufficient blood supply to the cerebral vessels.
After dealing with all the hospitalization procedures and initial treatment for this old man, Zhang Yi got up and looked at the office. Strange, where did Su Qingqing go to slack off?
He disappeared after answering a call?
Zhang Yi thought for a moment and picked up his phone to call Su Qingqing.
"Hello? Where are you?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was very noisy, as if it was in a crowded market.
"I…I have an emergency at home. I have to go back quickly. I've already asked the director for leave.”
"Alright, then be careful on the road.”
To be able to rush back without even going to work, it must be a big deal, right?
At night, Zhang Yi washed up and lay down before entering the System's training space.
After the previous training sessions, Zhang Yi had a 50% chance of succeeding in a major surgery like the splenectomy. However, he was still far from perfect.
After all, this was one of the most difficult surgeries in the surgical field.
"Now, we will begin the simulation training of 'Duodenectomy.' Host, please be prepared." Countdown 5, 4, 3, starting now!
……
Just as Zhang Yi picked up the scalpel and was about to perform abdominal incision, a notification sounded in the System Space.
External interference detected. Training is about to be terminated! External interference detected. Training is about to be terminated!
Then, Zhang Yi opened his eyes and realized that his phone was ringing. When he saw that the caller ID was from the department, Zhang Yi remembered that he was on second-string duty today. Being on second-string duty meant that other than the doctors on duty, there was also a doctor who was ready to be transferred at any time. As long as the department was too busy, the second-string doctor had to rush to the department as soon as possible.
Zhang Yi immediately picked up the phone.
"Doctor Zhang, come to the department and help!”
