Chapter 504: You Know Too Much
Hang up.
Ya is currently going to the VIP ward.
Today there is a Lasker cyst patient who is in charge of it.
"Mr. Martin, Mr. Martin. β
The little nurse who knows best anxiously knocks on the bathroom door of the ward.
"Dr. Duncan, Mr. Martin is locked inside and won't open the door. β
"Mr. Martin, please open the door, I know you are having a hard time, but you need our help. β
Adam knocked on the door.
"I don't need help, I don't need anyone. β
The patient, Mr. Martin, shouted through the door in the bathroom, "I am an island, a beautiful island, surrounded by water. β
βshitοΌβ
Adam's face changed.
"Dr. Duncan, I'm going to call security. β
The little nurse who knows the most subconsciously said.
"No, I don't. β
Adam twisted it hard and unscrewed the door lock.
Then the little nurse who knows the best just stood on the spot.
I saw Mr. Martin, a successful man who could afford to live in the VIP ward, lying on the side of the toilet, his face was stuffed into the water of the toilet, and when he saw Adam and them coming in, he raised his head, and then immediately got into it again, drinking water desperately.
Adam stepped forward, lifted Mr. Martin up with one hand, and walked out.
"No!"
The patient, Mr. Martin, struggled frantically: "Let me go back, I want water." β
"Violet, go get the restraint belt. β
Adam commanded.
"Yes. β
The little nurse who knew the most immediately ran out.
"Don't look at me, I don't want others to see me so miserable. β
Mr. Martin yelled in struggle.
"This is not what you are, Mr. Martin. β
Adam reached out and pressed him to the hospital bed, reassuring, "You're just sick, you have a Lasker cyst in your pituitary gland, which makes you hypotensive, and that's why you're extremely thirsty."
However, we can't let you drink a lot of water, so you have to use intravenous drips.
Drinking a lot of water will further affect your blood sodium levels, causing you to become delirious.
It wasn't a beautiful island surrounded by the sea, it was just a toilet.
I'm not your flight attendant on vacation either, I'm your doctor. β
"No! I don't believe it!"
Mr. Martin was hysterical.
He was in a state of insanity.
Adam had seen the other person in their normal state.
A withdrawn and proud successful businessman.
He was followed by a male assistant.
According to the assistant, Mr. Martin has no friends, and the only friend who is probably the only one who is an assistant he has been with for three years.
All right.
This is just wishful thinking on the part of this assistant.
When the assistant restricted his boss from drinking water according to Adam's doctor's instructions, the assistant was fired out of his body's extreme desire for water.
Adam advised Mr. Martin not to do so.
"You're just a doctor, what do you know?"
Mr. Martin said directly: "When you have an assistant, we'll talk about it again." β
The words were full of disdain and pride.
Naturally, Adam didn't bother to say anything more to him.
But the little nurse who knew the most about him couldn't bear it, and just a few words suppressed Mr. Martin's arrogance.
There are many successful businessmen, but none of them are billionaires.
Mr. Martin had to retract that sentence.
Adam, the doctor, should really know the relationship between the assistant and the boss.
But he also didn't listen to Adam's advice and called back his assistant.
Because in his eyes, the assistant saw him in such an embarrassed state, and his psychological respect for him had collapsed.
He would never want to use such an assistant again.
Adam could understand that, too.
It's like in ancient times, it would be dangerous to know too much about royal secrets.
You know too much.
The widow doesn't want to see you.
You can only disappear......
"Dr. Duncan. β
This will be kung fu, and the little nurse who knows it best has used it as a restraint belt.
"Tie him up. β
Adam commanded.
The nurse who knew the most skillfully tied Mr. Martin's hands and feet to the hospital bed.
"Give him three percent hypertonic saline intravenous drips for four hours for a total of 500 milliliters. β
Ya's current doctor's order: "Repeat." β
"Three percent hypertonic saline is given intravenously for four hours for a total of 500 milliliters. β
The little nurse who knows the most repeats.
"Good. β
Adam reminded again: "This hypertonic saline should not be injected too much, otherwise it will cause permanent damage to the patient's brain, so be sure to pay attention to a total of 500 ml in four hours." β
A nurse is just a nurse after all.
For common conditions, they don't need a doctor, they can go to it themselves.
But for complex and rare conditions, their knowledge is insufficient.
If they mishear 500 millilitres per hour for four hours, like this one, the patient's brain is finished.
Either die outright? or be paralyzed forever.
Adam had just said to Leeds that 'all good doctors have made mistakes that cause undeserving patients to die'.
But what he didn't say was that this common sense was for the average good doctor.
For such a hung force like him.
Negligence caused the death of the patient? He might have been able to avoid it forever.
And the further he goes, the more successful this avoidance will be as his skills and abilities continue to improve.
He didn't want to make a mistake like this for the first time.
Although, even if it happens.
Nor will it affect his career.
Those excellent doctors, even after so many years, can still report all the details of their encounters with such incidents in one mouth.
It can be seen that this kind of thing will become a shadow and regret for the parties for a lifetime.
Adam's brain has encrypted folders.
But he would never have made a mistake that could have been avoided by saying a few more words.
"I see, Dr. Duncan. β
The little nurse who knows the most nod solemnly.
"Dr. Shept. β
After settling Mr. Martin, Adam went to Dr. Shept and told him what had happened.
"Okay. β
Dr. Shept raised his wrist and looked at the time, it was already past two o'clock, and Mr. Martin's intravenous drip took four hours, and it was already off work at that time.
"Watch him well tonight, we'll have surgery tomorrow. β
An important difference between attending physicians and residents is that their working hours are fixed.
Except for the need to sit in the hospital in shifts with other attending doctors every once in a while, and when you have to rush to the hospital under special circumstances, the rest of the time is the normal commute time from 7 to 5 on weekends.
This ensures that the attending physician has the same schedule as everyone else.
That is, to be able to have a normal life.
Residents desperately want to become attending doctors, not only for money, but also for free time.
Having money and leisure is the real happiness.
"Christina, you can pay it back. β
After Adam said yes to Dr. Shepter, he found Christina and gave her the task of caring for Mr. Martin at night.
In fact, they can handle it best with the little nurses.
But Mr. Martin was a patient of Adam and did not have a full-time doctor to care for him, and he was a little uneasy.
simply use the favor that Christina owes him.
Otherwise, she would always be worried.
And if she bets again in the future, the favors will be superimposed, and she will never be able to use it, and she will still have the risk of breaking the jar and directly relying on the debt.
It's still like this, and it's good to owe it and pay it back, and it's not difficult to owe it again.
As expected, Christina happily agreed.
Owing favors to others is actually a burden for a principled and proud person.
If you don't return it early, you will feel uncomfortable.
But Adam had never given her a chance before.
It's okay now, it's just a matter of staying up all night and taking care of one more patient, which can offset a favor.
It's a lot cooler than sending out an operation.
Adam was still relatively relieved about Christina, but he still told him three times, and then he changed his clothes as soon as he got off work and drove to New Jersey.
