I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 268: Can Dr. Zhou really be busy?

Black smoke billowed into the sky, drowning out the local moonlight, as if the end of the world was coming.

This is destined to be a sleepless night, and even the birds that originally roost can't sleep.

In addition to the rescue team organized by Luo Ya, local officials, police, fire fighters, etc. also mobilized to join the rescue team.

The government evacuated a nearby private school and warned residents and businesses to shelter in place and turn off air conditioning systems.

Because, explosive factories contain toxic chemicals that can cause acute toxicity, carcinogenicity, reproductive toxicity, and may cause serious eye damage or eye irritation, skin corrosion or irritation, inhalation hazards, organ toxicity, etc.

This chemical plant is located northeast of the city of Crystal Mills, the capital of Crystal Mills County, and Loya's wine estate is located southwest of Crystal Mills.

In other words, the urban area of ​​Crystal Mills, the county capital, is halfway between chemical plants and wine estates.

Sequoia Hospital is located close to the city center, only eight or nine kilometers away from the chemical plant.

When planning the construction and site selection of the hospital, Loya took a fancy to the hundreds of thick redwood trees here, and enclosed them within the hospital as a beautiful landscape and back garden, and then gave it this name.

Crystal Mills County is not big, with a small population of about 30. The county capital originally had one medium-sized hospital, and together with Loya's, there were only two.

As for the rest of the scattered clinics, they can only treat minor illnesses and injuries. For more serious diseases, they have to be referred to the hospital.

Not every clinic is called Iris Clinic.

When Zhou Qiao and Luo Ya arrived, Sequoia Hospital was already busy preparing for the war.Almost all medical staff have returned.

Luo Ya asked Yaqi to give orders. After these days of work, everyone would be given taking turns to take vacations and generous bonuses.As the news spread, the medical staff who had been complaining suddenly became energetic.

Of course, only a small number of people complain.

Some people complain a little bit, but they still work very quickly.

The rescue team was very efficient, and wounded people were sent in one after another. Soon, the hospital felt like it was overcrowded.

After all, Sequoia Hospital has just been built not long ago, and Crystal Mills is not a big place, so the size of this hospital is equivalent to the second-tier hospital in the country, or even smaller.

For a start-up hospital, this is pretty good.At least, it's not much smaller than the existing hospital in Crystal Mills.

Jacqui also arranged for another team of royal reporters under Loya to come to the hospital to conduct follow-up reports.

This is also what it should be.At least Luo Ya had people to help, and there was a lot of medical assistance.It’s better than those people who rescue a few kittens and puppies and then make a big deal about it.

The lobby, first aid room, treatment room on the first floor... a large number of injured people were brought in, and they couldn't be accommodated. They couldn't accommodate them at all.

Some have skin burns, some have heavy bleeding, some have fractures, some have been poisoned. Many people have more than one wound, and they are also contaminated with various pollutants...

It happened to be night again, and many private clinics were closed.Even if they are open, those clinics can only treat simple trauma.Not much help.

Because for patients with minor injuries, they can endure it, but they may not die for a while.

At Sequoia Hospital, a large number of medical staff are already helping them with emergency treatment, debriding, suturing, nursing, applying medicine, bandaging...

In the United States, regardless of the size of hospitals, the construction of emergency rooms is actually almost the same model, which can be said to be standardized.They are all located on the first floor, and there is a waiting room after entering.There is a security guard between the waiting room and the emergency room.

On Luo Ya's side, there were guards with guns.

Generally speaking, not everyone can go to the emergency room.But today, there is no such level here.Extraordinary things are done at extraordinary times. What time has it been? There are even extra beds in the corridor, and there are patients lying on them for infusion.

Zhou Qiao and Luo Ya put on white coats after arriving at the hospital. After entering, they quickly went to the emergency room.

Zhou Qiao would naturally not care about non-fatal injuries, ordinary sutures, or minor surgeries.He is a firefighter, and he will go wherever there is trouble.

Seeing Luo Ya come in, in the emergency room, a doctor in his 40s with gray temples and deep eyes immediately lit up and came over.

"Boss, there is a patient who is quite serious. He may have been blown away during the explosion, or was knocked down from a high altitude by the air wave. In addition to multiple fractures, there is also an extremely serious injury."

"We performed emergency treatment on all other injuries, but we didn't dare to touch that injury."

Although Luo Ya and Zhou Qiao were both wearing white coats, doctor's hats and masks, the doctor still recognized their big boss at a glance.

"What's the injury?" Loya asked.

"The opponent's entire head was penetrated by a steel bar." The doctor said in a low voice.

As soon as these words came out, Luo Ya took a breath. The injury was already terrifying.

Because this kind of penetrating brain injury, combined with the accumulation of large metal foreign objects, usually leads to immediate death.But this man is still alive, and it has to be said that he has a great destiny.

The doctor hesitated for a moment and then said, "Let's send the ambulance to the Houston Hospital. However, his injuries are too serious. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on on the way."

Luo Ya shook her head and pointed at Zhou Qiao beside her: "There are top celebrities here. If you have any difficulties, you can go to him."

"Ah?" The doctor suddenly looked over in surprise.

Because Zhou Qiao was wearing a mask, the man didn't recognize him much before. Now when he heard what Luo Ya said, he couldn't help but think about it and shouted quickly: "Are you Dr. Zhou Qiao Zhou?"

The man behind the boss, the champion of heart surgery in the United States, few employees of Loya Group, especially the middle and senior management, have not heard of him.In particular, this doctor is from the medical field.

If you haven't heard of it or paid attention to it, it will be difficult for this person to climb to the management level.

Among the elites who are qualified for management positions, there is no one who is not arrogant and has low emotional intelligence.

Zhou Qiao nodded and said, "I am Zhou Qiao."

"Hello, Dr. Zhou, I am the director of Sequoia Hospital, Joachim Langre." The other party stretched out his hand.

Zhou Qiao shook hands gently with the other party: "Let's go see the patient quickly."

"OK!" Immediately, Dean Joachim Langley took Zhou Qiao to the patient.

There is no other way. As the dean, I have to go to the front line to give instructions and occasionally help with some work.

There were too many wounded.

Another reason why it is inconvenient to state clearly is that it is said that the big boss attaches great importance to this matter. He not only vigorously organized manpower for rescue, but also dispatched a team of royal reporters to the chemical plant explosion site and Sequoia Hospital to follow up and report. It is time show!

Luo Ya stood there and smiled slightly.

She thought to herself, it's great that Joe is here.

Otherwise, with the newly built medical level in Sequoia, it is estimated that many seriously ill patients would have to be transported to Houston.

The other hospital in Crystal Mills is not much better than Sequoia Hospital.Originally, the medical facilities here were relatively backward. If people had any serious illness, they would go to Houston.

If it is a chronic disease that is not fatal immediately, it is okay, but if it encounters such a natural disaster or man-made disaster, it will be quite tragic.He may not be able to reach a major hospital in Houston alive.

Even if you arrive and miss the golden rescue time, you may not be able to be rescued or make a complete recovery.

Zhou Qiao saw the patient. The steel bar exposed outside his head was still more than ten centimeters, about the thickness of an adult's finger.It is estimated that during the rescue, the rescue team had already sawed off part of it.

Zhou Qiao looked at the examination report and the imaging films and marveled in his heart. He had to say that this patient was a very lucky guy, but it was very unfortunate to encounter this kind of thing.It can only be said to be a blessing in misfortune.His entire skull was penetrated by steel bars, including his brain, mouth, nasal cavity, etc., but he did not die. This may be because the steel bars were relatively smooth and even in thickness. After being inserted, they were fixed by the skull and compressed the blood vessels around the wound. , slowing down the rate and volume of intracranial bleeding.

Furthermore, it did not damage important brain tissues such as the brainstem, nor affect its important nerve centers; it did not damage the carotid artery or intracranial large blood vessels, and did not cause fatal bleeding.

If you lack even one of these factors, you won't be able to survive today.

The patient is now comatose because of increased intracerebral bleeding and high intracranial pressure, leading to cerebral herniation.

"Let's move to the operating room. I'll pull out the steel bar." Zhou Qiao thought about it for a while and then said.

"Okay." Dean Joachim Langley immediately took action and personally took Zhou Qiao to the operating room. Then he also found seven assistants for Zhou Qiao, all of whom were the backbone of the hospital and were from the Department of Neurology. Among the senior attending doctors in departments such as surgery, otolaryngology, oral surgery, vascular surgery, and anesthesiology, two of them are still at the level of department directors.

The nurses also sent a total of eight senior nurses.

Usually, Americans don't need such a big battle when performing surgeries, but who makes Zhou Qiao the boss's man?Can you ignore it?
Dr. Zhou performs an operation, and their subordinates don't even arrange assistants. If the patient dies on the operating table, who does it count?It will affect Dr. Zhou's reputation.

After the big boss found out, he still didn't take off their skins.Can you spare them lightly?

Besides, such a major operation and such a serious condition require multi-disciplinary collaboration.When there are fewer people, it means making things difficult.

However, this move made the Redwood Hospital, which was already understaffed, even more dire and stretched.

Some rescue doctors and nurses in other places couldn't help but murmured: "They are so busy, and so many people are dispatched."

"That's right, the ambulances are still sending here."

"Oh my God, how many people have been killed or injured? Is this a rhythm that will keep us busy to death?"

"At first, we were quite happy when we heard that Dr. Zhou, a top celebrity, was here to help. We thought it would be easier. But as a result, we had to do an operation and bring so many people in. Who would do the rest of the work? Didn’t we do it?”

"The operation where the head was pierced by a steel bar was very troublesome and could not be completed in less than ten hours. I have seen similar cases in other hospitals before. At that time, many famous doctors worked together and it took a full thirteen hours."

"In other words, those people who have been transferred can't get out for more than ten hours? Oh my God! How come we are so busy here."

"Keep your voice down, or you will die if it reaches the ears of the big boss! It's not like you don't know what our big boss used to do."

……

In the emergency operating room, Zhou Qiao looked at the "gathering" of medical staff and couldn't help but chuckled: "Leave one surgical assistant, two nurses, and one anesthesiologist. Let everyone else go."

A department director said: "Is this... good? This operation is so difficult..." It means they are all gone. Dr. Zhou, can you really handle it?
Zhou Qiao smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "It takes at most three hours, and I really don't need so many medical staff to help. I used to do the surgery alone."

Since Dr. Zhou insisted, and there was indeed a lot of work outside, after everyone quickly discussed it, a senior doctor and two senior nurses from the neurosurgery department stayed, while the others withdrew with hesitation.

When they got outside, everyone couldn't help but whisper to each other as they walked quickly: "Is Dr. Zhou too young and energetic to realize the risks and difficulty of this surgery?"

"Who knows? After all, he won an award for heart surgery. In other respects, well, there seems to be a medical beauty industry that is particularly famous. It is another big business of our boss. That magical trauma drug is said to be available in many other countries. I want to introduce it, besides the mineral deposits, it is the most profitable golden egg in the boss’s name!”

"Dr. Zhou is top-notch, we just have to do our job well."

……

On the other side, the director of the general surgery department exclaimed: "Oh my God, there are more than a dozen limb reattachments? Any one of them would take more than ten hours. How can we finish this?"

"The broken limbs at the back will lose their mobility before the front ones are finished, and it's useless to try to reconnect them." The director of hand surgery couldn't help but said.

"No, I have to report to the dean."

Soon, Dean Joachim Langre was faced with another problem, a large number of patients who had their limbs resected, and he couldn't help but be overwhelmed.

"Yes, there are so many patients who have had their limbs reattached. Given the strength of the hospital, the first few people may be saved, but what about the people in the back?"

Transfer to another hospital?It's not that President Joachim Langre hasn't thought about it, but another hospital in Christmills has reported not long ago that their capacity has been overloaded and they can no longer accept new patients.

It seems that he still has to be transferred to a major hospital in Houston.

Dean Joachim Langley hurriedly found Loya, reported the situation to Loya, and applied for a transport vehicle.

The car is also very tight now, and Luo Ya needs to make additional arrangements.

Luo Ya pondered for a moment and said lightly: "No need to transfer, wait for Dr. Zhou to come out, and it will be done immediately."

"Boss, you might..." Dean Joachim Langre said heartily. Boss, you might not realize the key factors here. Even if Dr. Zhou comes out, there is only one Dr. Zhou. He can do it alone. How many surgeries?

The golden rescue time for reattachment of severed limbs is generally within 6-8 hours, and the shorter the time, the better; if it exceeds 8 hours or within 8-12 hours, the success rate of replantation of severed limbs is also very high.

Of course, there are some successful cases that can last for more than 24 hours due to good storage conditions. However, for more than 24 hours, the success rate is actually very, very low, and the probability of necrosis is very, very high.

No matter how long it takes, only angels or God can take him back.

Dr. Zhou is performing the surgery to penetrate the skull with a steel bar. No matter how fast he is, it will take at least eight or nine hours. When he comes out, will it be too late?Even if there is time, at most one or two amputated limbs can be reattached?What to do with the rest?
"No, I can't just watch those injured people be disabled for the rest of their lives!"

Dean Joachim Langley gritted his teeth, mustered up the courage, and analyzed the actual situation in a clear and logical manner, and then looked at the big boss Loya.

Luo Ya thought for a few seconds, then shook her head slightly and said, "Wait until Dr. Zhou comes out!"

Dean Joachim Langre: "..." I was speechless.

"What? My words are useless?" Luo Ya glanced over coldly.

Dean Joachim Langley, who originally wanted to argue, suddenly became weak and said, "Okay, wait for Dr. Zhou."

Left dejectedly.

Looking at the busy scene in the hospital, President Joachim Langre suddenly felt a little sad and said to himself, women are women after all. I never thought that the violent queen would have the brain to fall in love one day!
This is simply not taking human life seriously.

Perhaps, she was just doing it for show, as evidenced by having the press team following her reports.

I know that she may be reluctant to transfer these patients for the sake of showing off, because this is her capital for showing off.

Do I really have a future if I follow her and such a boss who is becoming increasingly sluggish?

Boss Luo Ya, you have changed. You should never be so obsessed with a man?

Although he is a national champion and a top-notch doctor in the medical field, after all, he is famous for his heart surgery and medical beauty!

Even if he does a good job in neurosurgery and can handle the steel bar, how can he be busy with so many broken hands and broken legs, broken legs and broken arms?

In the hospital chairman's office, Luo Ya glanced at President Joachim Langley who was leaving, and couldn't help but sneered, thinking, how could you possibly know Zhou Qiao's level?

She pinched her right hand, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it, thinking, you need eight or nine hours, more than ten hours, Zhou Qiao doesn't need it.

"I've experienced it myself, do I still know?"

However, due to the need for publicity and campaigning, Luo Ya has now strictly prohibited others from mentioning her experiences as a gangster in her early years, so only a few people know about that matter.
