When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Ever since Chen Cang started working in the emergency department, his heart had always been tense.

He never fully relaxed; sometimes when he fell asleep and heard the sound of the 120 emergency ambulances below, Chen Cang would suddenly flip out of the covers and get out of bed.

Things had gotten a bit better this year, perhaps because he had gotten used to this kind of life.

So, the moment he heard the cry for help.

Chen Cang didn’t have time to react before he ran towards that direction!

Jing Ran did the same!

Jing Ran, a thoracic surgeon, often worked with the emergency department to carry out various rescue operations. Over the years, he too had developed such an alertness.

Perhaps it was like how a police officer reacts to the keywords “Help, robbery, murder!”

As a medical worker, many times, the word “Help” has become their responsibility.

Saving lives and treating the wounded is the sacred duty of a doctor.

So, over the years, even though incidents of violence against doctors and repaying grievance with virtue have never ceased, you still see examples of medical staff stepping forward in train stations, squares, trains, airplanes, and so on.

Sometimes, even if life is merely about scraping by, there are still those who are not afraid of the pettiness because they hold poems and distant lands in their hearts.

It was like how Guo Zhiyong sprang into action in the blink of an eye to save three children; there was no room for consideration, Chen Cang and Jing Ran had only one thought in their minds: save the person first!

They initially thought the distance wasn’t far, but it turned out that what had fallen from the building wasn’t on this side, but rather on the construction site around the corner from the sales office.

The two didn’t care about the dust flying around as they rushed over, and by the time they arrived, three to five minutes had already passed!

By then, seven or eight people were gathered around the scene.

Chen Cang shouted urgently, “Make way, we’re doctors!”

At his words, the crowd dispersed!

And at that moment, the patient’s condition was revealed in front of everyone!

Seeing the patient’s state, Chen Cang’s scalp tingled.

A piece of rebar had entered right below the neck, penetrating the entire right side of the chest cavity. The bleeding was severe, life was in imminent danger, and he was nailed immovably by the more than ten meters of rebar!

Chen Cang bent down and saw the rebar, very different from the one that had penetrated Zhu Yongwang; it was about 25 millimeters in diameter and over ten meters of threaded steel!

And there was a stone attached to the rebar, firmly nailing the patient down, making it difficult to move.

The entire scene was bloody and violent, enough to make anyone’s hair stand on end.

At this moment, blood was still spurting from the chest, causing a shudder in those who saw it!

Yet, looking at the injured man, a middle-aged man in his fifties, dressed in work clothes, covered in dirt and dust, his forehead was tightly furrowed, his teeth clenched, fists tightly clenched, silent!

Such pain must be heart-wrenching, and yet the man uttered not a sound, his dark face etched with a determination that was reminiscent of the tough guy image often seen on TV.

But Chen Cang knew that tough guys are made for TV shows, but this kind of toughness couldn’t be faked!

Who would joke about their own life?

Even though Chen Cang had spent three years in the emergency department, he was still shocked by the situation at hand.

The workers around were also too frightened to move!

Chen Cang quickly said, “Call 119!”

Jing Ran was taken aback and hurriedly took out his phone to make contact.

At this time, it was crucial for Chen Cang to understand exactly how the patient was injured and to quickly ascertain the possible areas of damage and what to watch out for during the rescue.

After making the call, Jing Ran didn’t dial 120 but called the hospital’s emergency department directly, only to find no one answering.

Anxious, Jing Ran’s right hand holding the phone began to tremble, his face turning ashen, anger making him want to throw the phone!

Chen Cang straightforwardly dialed the nursing station at the Second Provincial Hospital: “Vanke Ziyang, the patient is nearly fifty years old, he fell from a building, a piece of rebar is inserted… send an ambulance quickly!”

The nursing station was manned by Xiao Lin!

Hearing Chen Cang’s urgent voice, he quickly contacted the 120 emergency medical technicians and ran out, carrying a box with long and quick strides from the resuscitation room.

The duty doctor in the emergency department was Wang Qian. After learning of the situation, he promptly contacted the operating room to prepare for emergency rescue!

He then got hold of Li Baoshan directly and gave a full report on the incident!

The entire emergency department of the Provincial Second Hospital was mobilized in an instant!

Even during the National Day holiday, there would absolutely be no impact on the rescue operations.

There are a few professions in this world that can never rest!

One is a doctor, the other is a police officer (all police officers)!

One is the line of defense for the safety of the people!

The other is the life-saving line for the people!

It wasn’t long after dialing 119 that the rescue work began to deploy rapidly.

Chen Cang checked the time.

At that moment: 9:15 AM!

Without a monitor, without any kind of safety assurance, Chen Cang dared not take any superfluous actions!

All he could do at the moment was stop the bleeding!

Chen Cang took off his short-sleeved shirt and pressed it against the patient’s bleeding wound!

Compression hemostasis was the only thing that could be done at the moment!

Everything… had to wait for the arrival of the 120 ambulance and monitoring before considering how to cut the steel rod.

The time was 9:23 AM.

The patient’s consciousness began to blur slightly, and Chen Cang estimated that the blood loss had reached around 1000.

Chen Cang began to worry.

To transport the patient to the ambulance, what must be done first was cutting the steel rod!

But there were no suitable tools on the construction site, which is where the help of the 119 was needed.

At 9:25 AM!

The sound of the fire engine finally came, and the fire engine drove in.

After the crowd dispersed, the firefighters began their urgent work!

Upon their arrival, Chen Cang hastened to negotiate.

“Hello! Comrade, I’m Chen Cang from the emergency department of the Provincial Second Hospital. The 120 ambulance will arrive soon. What we need to do now is cut off the steel rod connected below!”

Firefighter Wei Hong looked at Chen Cang, who was bare-chested, pressing his own clothes on the patient’s wound for hemostasis.

The white short-sleeved shirt was completely soaked red.

Wei Hong nodded; the fire service personnel’s job at this point was to cooperate with the medical staff to accomplish this rescue: “Hello, Dr. Chen, what do we need to do now?”

With his rich experience, Wei Hong knew the most correct choice was to cooperate with the doctor rather than make blind decisions!

Chen Cang assessed the situation: “We need to prop up the patient, then cut off the steel rod below, and also cut off the rod above. Comrades, you prepare the equipment first; the 120 will be here any moment!”

At this time, it was 9:30 AM!

About 20 minutes since the patient was injured, the blood loss was not too great; temporary compression hemostasis still played its due role!

At the moment!

The patient’s condition was still relatively stable.

Chen Cang anxiously awaited the arrival of the 120.
