Chapter 446: Calm heart, hard-to-cold blood

Remember [new] in one second! To be on the safe side, Lu Chen communicated with the patient’s family again and signed the informed consent again.

When signing, the patient's daughter-in-law was still hesitant.

But after some communication with Lu Chen, she finally signed her name on the medical record.

However, the next step of diagnosis and treatment plan will have to wait until the patient’s son comes back tomorrow before being decided.

Before leaving get off work, Lu Chen explained the patient's specific details to the night shift doctor.

"Junior brother, let's go. It's time to get off work." Lu Chen changed out of his white coat and said to Wang Defa, who was still sitting in the office.

Wang Defa shook his head and said: "Brother, you can get off work first. I, I will leave later."

"What's wrong?" Lu Chen walked up to Wang Defa curiously.

This kid is usually the most active after get off work. Why did he suddenly change his temper today?

"Brother," Wang Defa whispered, "Actually, this patient is the first patient I admitted today. Seeing the aunt in such pain, I want to see her again later. In addition, I also need to record the course of her illness again. have a look."

Interns who are new to clinical practice are quite shocked when they meet critically ill patients for the first time, or see deceased patients for the first time.

Exposure to death is also the first step in transforming from an intern to a doctor.

Lu Chen understood this feeling very well. He patted Wang Defa on the shoulder and said, "Okay, call me if you need anything. I'll get off work first, and you should leave early."

"Well, hello, senior brother."

Lu Chen nodded slightly. He was right. This boy was really a talented person.

After dinner, we returned to the dormitory.

Lu Chen continued to read the template of the national natural bidding document.

After a while, Wang Zihao and other roommates also returned to the dormitory one after another.

"Lu Chen, you are about to take the medical examination. How are you doing in your review?" Wang Zihao suddenly approached Lu Chen.

Lu Chen was slightly stunned. He had almost forgotten about taking the medical examination.

It's not his fault, things have been too complicated recently.

After returning from Kyoto, I was busy with the national natural bidding document.

I looked at the calendar and it seems that next week is the skills test for practicing medicine.

"I haven't had time to review yet." Lu Chen shook his head helplessly.

"Ah?" Wang Zihao was startled, "Lu Chen, you are so fierce, haven't you started reviewing yet?"

"I just came back from Kyoto, so I don't have time to review this." Lu Chen said helplessly.

"That's true!" Wang Zihao said, "But you have to hurry up. Although this skills test is much simpler than the National Clinical Skills Competition, some things are different."

"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded.

It seems that he has another task recently!

eight pm.

Lu Chen was checking the national natural bidding document in his bedroom.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

He picked up the phone and saw that it was Wang Defa calling.

"Hey, junior brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Defa's urgent voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Brother, the patient this afternoon is going to die!"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, before he could react, "Which patient?"

"We went there together in the afternoon to collect patients with suspected lung cancer and brain metastasis." Wang Defa spoke very fast.

"What's going on? Speak slowly."

"Is such that……"

After Wang Defa's brief description, Lu Chen also figured out the whole story.

It turned out that before Wang Defa was about to leave the department, he went to the bedside to take a look at the patient.

At this glance, the problem was discovered. Although the patient was not drowsy, he was half lying on the bed, breathing heavily.

Her daughter-in-law was not in the ward at the time.

Wang Defa hurriedly called the doctor on duty.

"Later, the patient's breathing suddenly stopped. After a period of resuscitation, the teacher on duty sent him to the ICU." Wang Defa said with lingering fear, "We still don't know what the patient's condition is."

"Sigh." Lu Chen sighed slightly, "Patients with advanced tumors and systemic organ failure will probably have a very difficult time."

On the other end of the phone, Wang Defa was a little silent.

For medical students who are new to clinical practice, it is very painful to see something happen to one of their patients.

Lu Chen saw that this kind of thing happened too often, and he still couldn't bear it.

However, he is also more rational and reflects on whether there are any imperfections in his handling of patients.

For this patient, Lu Chen communicated fully and signed two informed consent forms with the patient's family.

"By the way, junior brother, you haven't eaten yet, right?" Lu Chen said.

"Not yet." Wang Defa whispered.

"Well, you go back to the dormitory quickly. There is no food in the cafeteria now. I'll treat you to a meal." Lu Chen said.

"No, senior brother, I'll just order takeout." Wang Defa quickly refused.

"We have to wait for takeout." Lu Chen smiled, "We will eat next to the hospital, it will be quick."

Wang Defa wanted to refuse, but Lu Chen hung up the phone.

In a small restaurant next to the hospital.

Lu Chen ordered three dishes, and Wang Defa sat across from him with some embarrassment.

"Senior brother, I've cost you a lot of money."

"Hey, this is such a big deal!" Lu Chen smiled, "Besides, the food in the hospital cafeteria is too low in oil and water recently, so I also want to improve the food."

As the two chatted, the waiter served the food.

Seeing that Wang Defa still looked depressed, Lu Chen comforted him and said, "Junior brother, this is the first patient you have admitted. There will be many such things in the future."

"Senior brother, how did you adjust when you faced dying patients before?" Wang Defa said slowly.

Lu Chen smiled, as if the past flashed through his eyes.

It should have been when he was interning in the Department of Cardiology when a patient with pulmonary heart disease was declared clinically dead in front of him.

Ten minutes ago there was still life, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net In the blink of an eye, people were gone.

"Junior brother, I might not be as good as you at that time." Lu Chen picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, "In the first month of my clinical internship, I left the patients I managed with my own hands. I didn't see anything for several days. Come out of that uncomfortable feeling.”

Lu Chen paused, put down his chopsticks, looked up at Wang Defa, and said, "But after encountering it more often, I understand a truth. Many times, clinicians simply don't have time to grieve for their patients. Because next, you have to Continue to treat other patients.”

"In the face of death, you can become an excellent clinician only by maintaining a calm heart."

Every word in Lu Chen's words slowly echoed in Wang Defa's mind.

"You don't have to think so much now. As your clinical experience grows, you will eventually understand this."

"Well, thank you, senior brother." Wang Defa said solemnly, "Thank you for telling me these things today."

Lu Chen nodded slightly, took another piece of meat into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.

"But, junior brother, don't forget, although our hearts are calm, the blood flowing inside is hot!"
