Chapter 1322 - work-related injuries

“Colleagues are definitely not allowed.”Zuo cidian bit it off as if he was eating a popsicle. “Unless it’s a special situation, if you want to perform a surgery, you have to have your family members sign it. It’s also a guarantee for you.”

“Then I’ll make a call…”the patient operated with one hand and made the call with difficulty.

Zuo Cidian and the others did not take it seriously. After being in the emergency department for a long time, many patients who needed to perform surgery did not know that they had a disease that required their family members to take care of them before they came.

The patient with shoulder injuries held her phone, but her voice on the phone became louder and louder. “I’m in excruciating pain. Can’t you take a leave of absence to come here?”

“Don’t you deduct money when you take a leave of absence? Didn’t you just fall? I told you to deal with your shoulder, but you didn’t care…”the female voice on the phone grumbled for a while before she asked, “Which hospital and which department?”

“Yun Hua Hospital’s emergency department.”The patient with shoulder injuries said a few more words before she hung up the phone. She was already sweating from the pain.

“Hurry up and go for a check-up.”Zuo Cidian motioned for the intern to bring the patient over.

The emergency medical center was extremely rich now. They had bought MRI machines from X-ray machines and CT machines along the way. There were also people who could do the reading of the images.

Seeing that he might be cut by himself, Zuo Cidian even asked the intern to arrange a wheelchair for him to push the patient all the way for a check-up.

This was also a trick that they learned from Cleveland. A nurse with a monthly salary of several thousand dollars could push an injured patient for a few hours and charge a bill of over a thousand dollars. It could be said to be extremely cost-effective.

Yun Hua Hospital could only do this in the special needs building. The fees could not be too high, and the wheelchair push in the emergency room had become a distribution based on demand. Naturally, they could not be distributed.

The patients with shoulder injuries were not accompanied by their family members, but they had nurses accompanying them to take photos. For a moment, they actually felt better. It was as if the pain was not as strong as before, their bodies were not as weak, their breathing was not as intense, and they would occasionally bounce, they changed their positions and felt slightly refreshed.

Soon, the CT, X-ray, and report were sent back to Zuo Cidian together with the patient.

“Your glenohumeral joint is no longer working. Have you never seen a doctor before?”Zuo Cidian glanced at the report and recalled the information he had read before. He roughly knew the situation.

“I’ve seen it a few times. I’ll say that it’s a chronic disorder caused by multiple injuries. That’s more or less what I mean.”

“I didn’t ask you to do the surgery?”

“Yes… I understood it a little. I felt that it would be better if I didn’t do the surgery if I could.”

“You’re much more serious than before this time,”Zuo Cidian said with a frown before he dialed Ling ran’s number.

The emergency department would not perform such a pure shoulder surgery in the past. In the emergency department, other than Ling ran, the other doctors did not have any experience in performing such a surgery.

In the past, when the emergency department encountered patients with shoulder injuries, the first thing they did was to stop the bleeding, perform an infusions, and perform an anti-inflammatory scan. At the same time, they called the orthopedics department’s doctors to come over for a consultation.

At this moment, it was Ling ran.

After calling Ling ran, Zuo Cidian urged the patient again and said, “Are the family members not here yet? Performing surgery is a very serious matter…”

“They should be here soon.”The patient actually looked very uncertain. When Zuo Cidian saw this, he could only shake his head and remain silent.

He had been a doctor for a long time. He had seen all kinds of families, and he had even lost his curiosity.

Not long after, Ling ran came down wearing a brand-new white coat.

Unlike the white coats that the interns always wore, which were wrinkled and dirty, and had countless hands, Ling ran had a brand-new white coat in his closet all year round.

Every Time Ling ran got emotional, he would change into a new white coat. It was the kind that did not have any wrinkles. When he walked, it would make a soft rustling sound, and it gave people an extremely comfortable feeling.

The patients with shoulder injuries also bared their teeth and looked at Ling ran.

“Hang up all the scans.”Zuo Cidian had already instructed the young doctors to hang up all the scans. However, since Ling ran came over, he naturally had to show off again.

Ling ran nodded at everyone and then went to look at the scans by himself.

He had a good foundation in diagnostics, but the most outstanding thing about him was to look at the scans, especially when it came to orthopedics. He was also the most direct when it came to looking at scans.

Ling ran did not look at it quickly.

He had become very good at allocating time. For example, when he looked at medical imaging scans, Ling ran would also think a lot because he was interested. The surgery was his, and Ling ran did not need to report it to anyone else, he only did simulations in his mind and considered the value of the surgery.

“It happens to be in the good area of Latarjet Surgery.”After Ling ran finished looking at the medical imaging scans, he asked the patient directly, “We have to do the surgery. Do you want to do it in Yun Hua Hospital?”

One sentence caused many questions to arise in the patient’s mind. The patient only had time to say, “Can we still choose to do the surgery outside of Yun Hua Hospital?”

“Of course.”Ling ran answered very smoothly and said, “Although the injury on your shoulder is quite serious, it’s still a scheduled surgery. It shouldn’t be a problem if it’s delayed by one or two days.”

Zuo Cidian said gloomily from behind at this time, “The beds in big hospitals nowadays are very scarce. I suggest you contact them in advance.”

Only then did the patient come back to his senses.

Forget about Yun Hua Hospital, all the Tertiary Grade A hospitals in Yun Hua city did not have a shortage of beds. He might be able to get a bed today, but that did not mean that he could still get a bed outside of Yun Hua Hospital.

“Then… I’ll discuss it with my family.”The patient turned his head left and right and said, “It’s not good for my family to ask for leave. They’ll probably come later.”

“How about this, I’ll draw a few sketches for you.”Ling ran stretched out his hand and asked for a stack of paper and pencils. Then, he quickly drew a sketch of the structure of the shoulder in front of the patient.

A perfect-grade sketch appeared in front of the patient quickly like a photocopy.

“Because your shoulder joint has been dislocated repeatedly, there’s already a bone defect, mainly here…”

“When the width of the defect is less than 15% , we usually do not treat it, but if the width is more than 30% , which is your current condition, then surgery is the only option.”

“Our surgical procedure is also relatively simple.”

Ling ran used five minutes to draw three pictures. They were all the simplest sketches, but they were also concise and concise. He could understand them at a glance.

The patient looked at Ling ran’s paintings with both understanding and confusion. It was as if his brain was starting to become unstable.

“Old merchant.”The voice that shouted came closer from afar. After the nurse stopped him, he made a call.

“This way.”The patient quickly stood up from his wheelchair and smiled helplessly at the doctors. “My wife is a little fierce.”

“That’s enough. And my wife.”Zuo Cidian praised her, and many doctors nodded in agreement.

Patient Jia could only smile wryly as he showed his wife three more paintings. He said, “My shoulder hurts a lot. They said that I need to have surgery…”

“Then, did you ask for leave from your boss?”His wife glanced at the paintings and immediately asked, “You fell on the way to work. It’s considered an injury from work.”
