The Enhanced Doctor

Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232: A Melodramatic Scene at the Emergency Center

With a night of buffering, Liu Yiqing recovered significantly the next day.

To say there was no impact at all would be nonsense. After all, her sister-in-law was still in the ward in the second department, and she would undergo surgery today.

"Tsk tsk, Qingqing, you must have had a lot of good food last night, huh?" Xu Yino teased.

"Hehe, there really was a lot of good food, and there was even a big crab," Liu Yiqing said with a smile.

"For the time being, just accept consultations downstairs; it’s better than going up and getting irritated. It’s only for about a week or so, it’ll pass quickly," Xu Yino said.

"Have they made their choice?" Liu Yiqing hesitated slightly and asked.

Xu Yino pulled her aside mysteriously, "Apparently, they argued for quite some time last night, but in the end, they decided to preserve the anus."

"You better not get involved, let them sort it out themselves. It has nothing to do with us; don’t go making trouble. Even Su Wenhao is exhausted by them, you should just stay downstairs obediently."

Liu Yiqing nodded, "Yesterday, Teacher Liu and the mistress also told me not to interfere at all."

"That’s more like it, obediently handle consultations," Xu Yino nodded satisfactorily.

She was quite capable herself, but she felt she had to bow down in front of Liu Yiqing’s brother and sister-in-law.

Even someone as gentle as Su Wenhao was annoyed by them last night. Fortunately, it was Su Wenhao; otherwise, getting the surgery confirmation form signed smoothly would be tough.

Liu Yiqing hesitated a bit but still went over to Liu Banxia who was walking back, "Teacher Liu, um, can we offer them some discount when the time comes?"

"You decide this; if you say we can, then we will. But no major discount, at most some on the nursing items," Liu Banxia said.

"Thank you, Teacher Liu," Liu Yiqing said happily.

"You know, even if you give them a discount, they won’t appreciate it, and you’ll still owe a favor," Liu Banxia said helplessly.

"Hehe, as long as I’m happy inside, I won’t care about them," Liu Yiqing said with a grin.

"Director Liu, two car accident patients. One is in a serious condition, already unconscious in the car, might have injured the cervical spine," Qi Wentai called out.

"OK, let Liu Yiqing handle the consultation, so she doesn’t have to idle around and come bother me," Liu Banxia said.

"Teacher Qi, are the injuries severe? Are there signs of internal bleeding?" Liu Yiqing asked.

"There’s no sign of internal bleeding. The driver and the front passenger both have some lacerations, and the driver’s head was hit by the airbag," Qi Wentai said.

"Alright."

Liu Yiqing responded.

After waiting for a while, the ambulance arrived with the two patients.

"Vital signs stable, minor facial contusion, but the person is already unconscious and has a neck brace on," the paramedic said while pushing the patient down.

"To be safe, send him to the first rescue room to check the cervical spine. Are you a family member? Please help with the registration; your issues don’t seem very severe," Liu Yiqing said.

The accompanying female patient shook her head, "We’re colleagues, da... will he be very serious?"

"We won’t know until we check, so please help contact the family. He’s unconscious now, and we can only conduct basic checks," Liu Yiqing said.

"I don’t have contact information for his family," the female patient said.

No choice, this needs to involve the police.

After moving to the rescue room, Liu Yiqing didn’t dare remove the patient’s neck brace. Instead, she first connected the patient to an ECG and conducted a basic physical examination.

"Teacher Liu, the examination doesn’t show any problems. Should we do an MRI or CT next?" Liu Yiqing asked.

"Do an MRI of the head and cervical spine; be cautious. Given his current condition, he might have cervical spine injury compressing the nerves," Liu Banxia said.

Liu Yiqing nodded, quickly arranged the tests, and pushed the patient for a cervical spine MRI.

Don’t be fooled by the patient’s stable vital signs; being in a coma means a high risk.

The current condition seems to be a concussion sequelae, might be issues from the cervical spine. If it really is cervical spine-related, it won’t be easy to handle.

Outside, the female patient’s condition was also dealt with.

She just had simple abrasions, didn’t even need stitches, just needed a brain CT later.

"How is it? Did you get in touch with the patient’s family?" Liu Yiqing asked the arriving traffic officer.

"Reached them, but the situation seems a bit peculiar. The patient’s wife is very calm, said she’ll come over after dropping their child at supplementary classes," the traffic officer said with a wry smile.

"Oh no, looks like she caught him red-handed," Liu Banxia smirked.

Such situations aren’t rare in hospitals, some get furious upon discovery. This must be freshly discovered, difficult to accept.

This family member’s calmness indicates prior knowledge, it’s uncertain if she’ll cause a scene upon arrival.

"How is his condition?" the traffic officer asked.

"Currently it’s relatively stable. We’ll wait for the MRI to see the situation. How did they crash into each other?" Liu Banxia said.

"They were road raging, it’s entirely their fault. The other party was driving within their lane," the traffic cop said.

"This is one of those unavoidable things. It’s difficult to handle what’s next. Let’s hope they don’t start fighting here. I’ll go ask the female patient if she needs to leave early." Liu Banxia said.

The traffic cop nodded with a smile, they’ve seen this too many times to be surprised.

"We’ve already contacted the family members, do you think you should avoid them?" Liu Banxia approached the female patient and asked.

"It’s okay, I have to stay with Dawei." The female patient said.

Liu Banxia sighed internally; it seemed like he might need to prepare for battle.

But there’s no choice, this is the patient’s right. Besides, they still need to get a CT scan later.

Waiting and waiting, the male patient’s family members hadn’t arrived yet, but the male patient’s MRI was already done.

"Teacher Liu, is this a hematoma within the spinal canal?" Liu Yiqing asked.

Liu Banxia carefully examined the images on the computer, "It’s already pressing on the nerve, the coma might be caused by pressure from this small hematoma."

"Better call someone from neurosurgery. It’s unsure if they can handle this; we might still need to call Director Xiao." Liu Banxia said.

This type of surgery is highly risky; not injuring the spinal cord while removing the hematoma is crucial.

He had once interned in such a surgery, and that time, locating the small hematoma was extremely difficult.

"You would need Director Xiao for this, but he has a surgery today, so it has to wait until he’s finished,"

Upon seeing the images, Zhang Xiao said.

"We can prepare the patient in advance, and then you can contact Director Xiao. How about the patient’s family? They can’t sign under the current condition."

"They should be here soon, I’ll contact the family again." Liu Banxia said.

He felt quite emotional; the patient’s family hadn’t turned up yet. If they wait too long, it might cause delays.

Just when he picked up the phone, the nurse brought a woman over.

"Director Liu, this is Hu Wei’s wife," the nurse said.

"You’re here just in time, the MRI results were just released, showing a hematoma in the spinal canal pressing on the nerve, surgery is needed to remove it," Liu Banxia said quickly.

"What if we don’t do it?" The patient’s wife asked calmly.

Though her tone was calm, it hit like a bomb, leaving Liu Banxia stunned for a while.

"If we don’t...if we don’t do it, there’s no telling when he’d wake up, and even if he did, he might be paralyzed below the neck or even die." Liu Banxia said.

"The hematoma isn’t very large right now, but we can’t determine the exact condition. Operating might yield better results?"

"Liu Qian, are you trying to kill Dawei? Officers, this is murder." The female patient also reacted, shouting loudly.

"Did you consider whether being with him all happy would murder me or the kid?" The patient’s wife remained calm in tone.

"You lost your job, I introduced you to work in Dawei’s company, and this is how you repay me? How much did he spend on you? We don’t have money for the surgery."

"I...I have money, I’ll pay," said the female patient.

"Seems like he truly cared for you," the patient’s wife’s tone remained very calm.

"Doctor, since someone else can decide, I have nothing more to do here. I need to go home to cook for the kid, we still have to live."

Upon saying this, the patient’s wife turned and left.

"No, you can’t leave. You’re his wife, only you can sign for the surgery with his current condition," Liu Banxia said hurriedly.

The patient’s wife frowned, "Is the surgery risky?"

"Well...there is certainly risk involved. Now that the hematoma is pressing on the spinal cord, accidents may happen during the surgery," Liu Banxia said.

"Then I really can’t sign, if anything goes wrong, I can’t face his family," the patient’s wife said.

"Um, let’s wait a moment, let me think." Liu Banxia said with a bitter smile.

He’s usually persuasive, but in this situation, he truly doesn’t know how to convince her.

Without this woman’s signature, the surgery can’t proceed. Unless the patient wakes up, regains consciousness, and gives verbal consent.

But this woman seems deeply hurt, experiencing betrayal both by her daughter and husband, and not the quiet type of betrayal.

He didn’t expect such a dramatic scene to play out in the emergency center.

He can’t discern if the woman truly doesn’t want to save him or is seizing this chance to torment the female patient.
