City’s Best Divine Doctor

Chapter 2280 - 2240: Acute Heart Failure

Ye Qiu came down from the teacher’s building, with no exams in the afternoon, he planned to return to Peach Blossom Spring Villa.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into Luo Yang and his friends.

Before the exam, they thought they were doomed. Looking at the questions, it seemed like they couldn’t answer any of them. If they really guessed, it might be better not to even try.

Unexpectedly, after Ye Qiu quietly passed them the answers, they realized they no longer had to worry about failing the exam.

Although feeling a bit guilty, considering they hadn’t focused their energy on this subject, they didn’t think much of it.

Since they hadn’t eaten lunch yet, Ye Qiu decided to go out to eat with them.

After having lunch, Ye Qiu drove back alone to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.

Right now only Xiaomai was home.

"Ye Qiu, weren’t you supposed to go to an exam?"

"I finished it."

Ye Qiu went back upstairs to play games.

...

A week passed all being exams.

Finished the exams on the second day.

A practical exam on the third day.

It was dissection of a frog in the lab.

If attending these practical classes regularly, there shouldn’t be any problems.

People like Luo Yang and Zhou Shaohui attended classes too, but not regularly.

Even if they could copy, without knowing how to dissect the frog’s nerves, they wouldn’t manage, so for this practical exam, they just winged it.

Best to pass, but if not, this course would fail at most.

Not worried about anything else.

Ye Qiu finished last night’s practical dissection quickly, handed it in, and left the lab himself.

This wasn’t much yet; come junior year, real human dissection starts, and it might be disgusting. At that time, Ye Qiu might not want to come.

Because he understands thoroughly, no need to waste time on it.

After changing out of the lab gloves and disinfecting, Ye Qiu walked out.

Feeling much more comfortable outside.

Now all exams are done except for three subjects.

Two exams each day, and one the day after tomorrow.

Vacation starts next week.

Having finished exams, Ye Qiu planned to return to Peach Blossom Spring Villa.

By Friday, all six courses were complete, and as for electives, Ye Qiu didn’t enroll, so he didn’t need to take exams.

Other classmates chose one or two to boost their credits, some overachievers even took two or three elective courses to study.

Of course, those exams should be much simpler, with one or two credits per subject.

Now that exams are over, Ye Qiu planned to pick up Liu Lingxiu in the afternoon.

Around four in the afternoon, as Liu Lingxiu came down with her things, she asked as she got into Ye Qiu’s car, "Ye Qiu, are you all done with your exams?"

"All done."

"I still have two required courses, two electives next week."

However, Liu Lingxiu felt she did alright since professors had highlighted the key exam points ahead, and memorizing them made answering easy.

Returning to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, Liu Lingxiu went back to her parents’ place first.

Even though she visits often, her parents didn’t mind.

After all, they aren’t married yet, so it might not look good.

The next morning, as Ye Qiu was having breakfast, preparing to go out for fun, his phone rang. It was Zhou Peng calling.

"Doctor Ye, it’s me, there’s a critical patient at the Affiliated Hospital, come and take a look immediately."

"What’s the condition?"

"Acute heart failure, already in the emergency room, things don’t look good."

Zhou Peng, still at home so early, definitely hadn’t gone to work, but just received this call.

He hurriedly contacted Ye Qiu.

Such acute heart failure can easily lead to death.

"I’ll be on my way."

Ye Qiu didn’t finish breakfast, left the house, got into his car, and headed to the Affiliated Hospital.

At the Affiliated Hospital, the deputy director was already waiting for him.

"Doctor Ye, follow me quickly."

"What’s the patient’s identity?"

"A retired cadre from a nursing home suddenly suffering heart failure this morning, likely weather-related."

Such extreme cold weather easily causes incidents among children and elderly.

Acute heart failure refers to a condition stemming from sudden or worsening left-sided heart function abnormality, resulting in decreased myocardial contractility, increased cardiac load, and acute drop in cardiac output, raised pulmonary circulation pressure, increased peripheral vascular resistance, leading to acute pulmonary congestion, pulmonary edema, potential organ perfusion deficiency, and cardiogenic shock, with left-sided heart failure being most common.

Acute heart failure can exacerbate an existing chronic condition or present suddenly. Before an attack, patients often have underlying cardiovascular disease, showing either systolic or diastolic heart failure. Life-threatening and requires urgent rescue.

At this moment, several doctors worked on resuscitating the elderly patient, but the EKG readings looked dire.

A chief attending doctor stepped out, preparing the family for the worst.

Meaning, they might not save him.

When Ye Qiu entered, the emergency doctors stepped aside for him.

Assessing the critical condition, Ye Qiu saw severe coma, faint breath, failing heart, other organs, even the brain suffering from lack of oxygen.

"All of you, leave," Ye Qiu instructed.

At his direction, including nurses, they cleared out.

Whatever happened, Ye Qiu would be responsible.

Moreover, they knew Ye Qiu’s medical skills were exceptional.

Ye Qiu disconnected the medical equipment and began treating the patient.

The elderly’s condition resembled Ling Fei’s grandmother, though hers was brain abscess while this was acute heart failure.

About half an hour later, Ye Qiu exited the emergency room, announcing, "It’s done."

Done?

That definitely meant everything was alright.

Everyone, including the deputy director, breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Qiu didn’t stay longer.

Rushed over, pulled from King Yan’s grasp, yet hadn’t finished breakfast. Originally, Ye Qiu intended to return to Peach Blossom Spring Villa.

Thinking about it, being here already, best to visit Wen Xin.

He hadn’t seen Wen Xin in a long while.

"Where are you?"

"I haven’t gotten up yet, resting in the dorm."

Despite being head nurse now, Wen Xin sometimes works night shifts, which are exhausting, so she rests during the day.

"I’ll come see you."
