Liu Banxia came outside, and the patient’s family immediately surrounded him.
"The patient’s condition is still quite critical because the core body temperature is too low, so we can only gradually warm him up. During this process, we need to constantly resuscitate and maintain the blood circulation in the body," Liu Banxia said.
"For this reason, we currently cannot perform a detailed examination on the patient; we can only determine that the condition inside the abdominal cavity is relatively good."
"Which family member can make decisions? Come with me to the side. I still need to explain in detail. We have already arranged a professional doctor to queue up for abdominal decompression resuscitation in the emergency room."
"Director Liu, please tell me the situation. I am Dong’s father, my name is Cheng Yu," said the middle-aged man who first spoke with Liu Banxia.
Liu Banxia nodded, leading him to the office nearby.
"To be honest, the situation is not very optimistic. So, as a routine, we still need to issue a critical illness notification," Liu Banxia said.
"Currently, the blood circulation in his body relies entirely on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which may cause some degree of brain oxygen deficiency during this time. So even if we manage to save him, the brain might suffer irreversible damage."
"Ah... Old Xu and I have discussed this. But there’s always some hope, right?" Cheng Yu asked.
"Yes, there’s still hope. But what we can do is very limited; he has been hypothermic for too long, and the core temperature is too low, so we can only slowly warm him up," Liu Banxia said.
"The next hour might drag on to more than an hour and a half, and it will become very dangerous, so you need to be psychologically prepared."
Cheng Yu nodded, knowing that Liu Banxia was speaking the truth.
These potential scenarios had been explained to him by Xu Chengjun. But now, there was still hope for the child to survive; even if the brain was affected somewhat, he would still be alive, after all.
And now Liu Banxia could only explain this much; the top priority for the patient is to warm up. The most important thing is to raise the body temperature.
Another two patients are here; there is another patient who needs attention.
After finishing the explanation, Liu Banxia moved to the second emergency room.
After this period of resuscitation, the patient’s emotions had calmed down. There was still some influence, but he was out of life danger.
"Doctor, how’s Dong?" The patient urgently asked upon seeing Liu Banxia enter.
"He is still somewhat at risk currently, too hypothermic. How is your head feeling now? Do you feel nauseous, vomiting, or have a headache?" Liu Banxia asked.
"My head hurts a bit, and I’m a little dizzy. Will Dong survive?" The patient said and then asked.
"I can’t give you any answers right now; we can only await the results of the resuscitation," Liu Banxia said.
"Let’s deal with your situation first, you need a CT scan to see if the head injury is severe, and whether there’s any intracranial bleeding or edema."
"I won’t go; I’ll wait for Dong." The patient’s tone was resolute.
Xu Yino had to give Liu Banxia a helpless look.
Liu Banxia frowned, feeling something strange.
"If you don’t get examined, what if something really happens? When Dong is rescued, would you want him to accompany you by not being examined?" Xu Yino said.
"Why are you so stubborn? The situation is still uncertain; even if you have an examination and decide not to treat, you still need to get examined first."
The patient did not speak.
"Go for the examination, did you bring your ID card? You also need to contact your family. Even if there’s nothing wrong inside your head, you’ll still experience some concussion symptoms in the next couple of days," Liu Banxia said.
"I’ve arranged several doctors lined up to give Dong CPR, but his body temperature needs to be raised bit by bit."
"During this waiting period, what if something happens to you? You’ve just barely regained your temperature; further examination is necessary."
"Okay, I’ll get examined. But can you inform me about Dong’s condition first-hand? I know what you might be thinking, Dong is my loved one," the patient said, looking at Liu Banxia.
Liu Banxia kept a composed face and nodded, "Regardless of who he is to you, to us, you two are just our patients."
"Xu Yino, prepare the form for routine checks, mainly examining the head’s condition. But there’s no need for urgent processing; I think his mental state looks good."
"Moreover, Dong’s father said before coming that we should do our utmost to save you both. So don’t just verbally cooperate during the upcoming examination. Understand?"
The patient was taken aback, and nodded seriously.
Liu Banxia exited the second emergency room, pinched the brow of his eyes, and went into the first emergency room.
"The core temperature has reached 29 degrees," Shi Lei said upon seeing him enter.
"The other one is fine, just a severe head injury," Liu Banxia said.
"Caused by a car accident? Then lying outside all night?" Shi Lei asked.
"Didn’t ask, the situation is somewhat unusual," Liu Banxia grinned.
Although there was some anticipation while in the second emergency room just now, hearing the patient say it directly still somewhat startled him.
Anyway, as he said, nothing else matters to him, even if it’s more dramatic, saving the patient is the top priority.
"Everyone, please hang in there a little longer. It’s crucial after the temperature is raised," Liu Banxia said.
"Teacher Liu, don’t worry, everyone is already prepared," Huang Bo said.
"Good, let me know when the temperature goes up," Liu Banxia nodded.
Staying here doesn’t help, with Shi Lei here providing guidance, it’s all sorted.
Besides, there’s really nothing else to do right now. The next step, cardiac resuscitation, is the real key.
"Director Liu, how’s it going?" The patient’s father ran up to him again.
"Take a rest yourself. It’s reached 29 degrees Celsius so far. Once it reaches over 34 degrees, we can consider doing cardiac resuscitation," Liu Banxia said.
"Director Liu, do you think the chances of resuscitation are high?" The patient’s father asked further.
"I can’t guarantee that either. We have seen similar patients, but their hypothermia and cardiac arrest duration was not as long, and their core temperature wasn’t this low, but we have succeeded in resuscitation," Liu Banxia said.
"The other patient has already woken up, next we’ll conduct the necessary examinations. Mainly the head, we need to check for any intracranial injuries."
The patient’s father nodded, but his facial expression showed no relief.
Liu Banxia didn’t say more, this is undoubtedly another dramatic story. Unrelated to your family, it’s related to romance.
"Teacher Liu, how is that patient doing?"
At this time, Xu Yino also walked out from the emergency room.
"Still working on warming up. If you’re interested, you can line up to assist with the abdominal warming," Liu Banxia said.
"I better diagnose patients instead, we can’t all rush in," Xu Yino said.
At this point, Liu Banxia’s phone rang again.
"Chief Director Xu, we’re currently diagnosing. The hypothermia is too severe, both thoracic cavities are inserted with tubes for warming; it should be nearly 30 degrees now," Liu Banxia said after answering.
"You’ve discovered there’s something unusual too, right? Tell everyone to keep their mouths tight," Xu Chengjun said.
"That’s fine, but you owe me a meal," Liu Banxia said.
"No problem, as soon as President Cheng asked me, I thought of you. His family’s situation is too unusual, spreading it wouldn’t sound good," Xu Chengjun said.
"Eh..., if I hadn’t heard our on-site emergency doctors report the situation, I wouldn’t have known about this drama. Do you think the chance of saving is high?"
"So far, it seems possible. Although the hypothermia severely affected him, your on-site rescue was timely, and you’ve managed to maintain circulation," Liu Banxia said.
"I still have hope for cardiac resuscitation, but whether there was brain damage, that’s still a question mark."
"I’ll arrange both of them later in VIP rooms to minimize disturbances. Such a significant event will surely attract many visitors."
"Let’s see your rescue results. Tomorrow I’ll have to go over. We can talk then, anyway, I’m entrusting you with this," Xu Chengjun said.
"Don’t worry, now our doctors are taking turns doing CPR, every four to five minutes to ensure the quality of blood supply," Liu Banxia said.
"And judging from the current speed of warming, the whole warming process shouldn’t exceed an hour. Considering your rescue and the time on the road, there’s still some chance."
"Alright, let’s leave it at that," Xu Chengjun hung up the call.
After Liu Banxia hung up, he saw Cheng Yu pick up the phone. It’s probably a call from Xu Chengjun, also meant to reassure him.
However, there’s no way around it, there are still quite a few variables with this patient.
As he said, whether there’s brain damage is still unknown. This can be assessed slowly after successful rescue.
But after such prolonged hypothermia and cardiac arrest, if he can come out unscathed like in the movies, that’s impossible.
"Director Liu, thank you for the arrangements."
The patient’s father ran over again.
"It’s important to maintain enough confidence in the rescue, only then can you face the following events," Liu Banxia consoled.
Just as he finished speaking, Liu Banxia’s phone rang again.
"Brother Qiu, what’s up?" Liu Banxia answered directly.
"Old Cheng is at your hospital, right? Just tried calling him but it’s busy," Qiu Huaili asked.
"Hang on, I’ll hand it over to him now," Liu Banxia said, then handed the phone to Cheng Yu, "Qiu Huaili, couldn’t reach you."
Cheng Yu paused for a moment, then quickly took over the phone.
