There were more than a dozen young babies lying in the intensive care unit, more than half of them had symptoms of infection, they didn't know anything about the impending fate, they didn't even understand what life and death were to face it, and the distress was only because of the pain caused by the illness on their bodies, as long as they were not hard-hearted, they were all touched by this picture.

Two nurses are measuring real-time sign data for them one by one, and many things cannot be understood by relying on monitors, and manual labor is essential. Liang Baoguang took a lot of trouble not out of curiosity about incurable diseases, but to diagnose the cause of the children and save their lives through his experience and knowledge. Unfortunately, after observing the child up close, he still couldn't get anything useful, and the symptoms of bacterial infections were mostly similar, and the scope was not narrowed down much.

"Vomiting, convulsions, fever, hypotension, kidney failure...... These symptoms do not help to unravel the cause. Liang Baoguang was lying on the sofa in Lin Zhilan's office, and there were some things he couldn't say in front of the child's parents, so he could only say them in front of Lin Zhilan and Li Yunjing, "The time is too tight, the equipment is limited, even I have no rut." ”

"What kind of frustrating words did you say, we still have 15 hours to go, how can we give up now!" Lin Zhilan glared at Liang Baoguang very angrily, the person she knew never fought until the last moment and never let go, "You have changed, is that the impact of that incident on you is so great?"

Liang Baoguang looked at the ceiling, "I'm just stating a fact. ”

"You have to have a way, don't you? "After knowing each other for many years and working as a deputy under Liang Baoguang for two years, Li Yunjing has become accustomed to believing in him more than in himself.

Silent...... There were only three people left in the office breathing and the ticking of the clock on the wall, each of which was a reminder that a few young lives were moving away from them. Five minutes later, Liang Baoguang finally sat up, "Actually, when it comes to solutions, I don't have them, but I'm afraid you won't agree." ”

"Do you really have a solution?" Lin Zhilan almost jumped up from her chair, she had been suffering since it was confirmed that there was an outbreak of infectious disease in the hospital yesterday afternoon, and her pain was even worse after the clinical signs showed that the antibiotics they prescribed had destroyed the baby's kidneys, and now she was finally relieved.

"The two most sick babies, one off vancomycin and one off aztreonam, were waiting to see which one worked and which didn't, and we would soon find out what was wrong with them. "If you can't find the cause, you have to use two drugs on the baby at the same time, and antibiotics are not so good, if they continue like this, they will inevitably die of organ failure, Liang Baoguang feels that it is better to fight than wait for them to die.

Jiang Lingying was originally going to send materials to Lin Zhilan, but when she was about to knock on the door, she heard the voice of a man in the office and couldn't help but stop and listen to the content, and when she heard that Liang Baoguang was actually going to stop a medicine, she immediately couldn't bear it, and even forgot to knock on the door and pushed the door directly, "Are you crazy, you actually want to conduct experimental treatment on two babies who are just two days old?"

"Doctor Jiang, why didn't you come in without knocking. Lin Zhilan originally locked the door, but when she was called out and came back just now, she forgot to lock it, and when she saw Jiang Lingying actually standing outside the door and eavesdropping on their conversation, she immediately showed a look of displeasure.

"Are you crazy, as a doctor, you actually want to watch two babies who have just been excellent for two days die of organ failure?"

"Using the child's life to gamble on a one-in-half probability, the parents of the two families will never agree. Li Yunjing let out a long sigh, she admitted that what Liang Baoguang said was a solution, but this plan is really not feasible, who would let her children risk up to 50 percent of their death to "explore the way" for other children? At least she didn't think that there would be anyone so noble in South Korea.

"You don't need to let them know, you just need to miss a medication slip. Liang Baoguang shrugged.

Everyone present knew that the meaning of "mistake" was to let them deliberately omit the medication list to stop the medicine for the two babies, Jiang Yuying's face was flushed with excitement when she heard this, "If the medicine is stopped, one of the two children is likely to die within 2 to 5 hours, how do you decide which child to stop which medicine, do you want to kill one of them by throwing a coin?"

"Yes, because if we don't throw this coin, not only those two children will die, but all the other children will also die within 12 to 16 hours, how can you be so ruthless not to stop their medicine, do you want to kill all of them by being an ostrich?" Liang Baoguang scolded herself back with Jiang Yuying's words.

"Is it the two missing medication orders, or the eight death notices, this is not Mount Sinai Hospital, senior sister, you have to make your own decisions. "If it is in Mount Sinai Hospital, Liang Baoguang's decision is not difficult to make, but this is the Ewha Womans University Affiliated Hospital, which is the territory of Lin Zhilan.

Lin Zhilan glanced down at her phone, "It's 9 death notices, and another child has an early reaction." ”

The ethics of the train wrenchman are very classic, in fact, as long as you play on the tracks of the train, it is not "innocent", and whether the train passes by one child or five children is nothing more than a 1 in 2 probability problem. Is it to kill the "innocent" child by pulling the railroad tracks, or to sit back and watch the five children get killed and be an indifferent but clean bystander?

The current situation is very different from that faced by the train wrenchers, but the ethical core of the problem is the same. If Lin Zhilan and the others had chosen Liang Baoguang's plan, they would indeed have a chance to save the rest of the infected babies, but at the same time, they would have an unshirkable responsibility for the child who died; on the contrary, if they did nothing and waited for the death knell to ring, although nine or more babies would have died, they would have been incompetent fools and would not have to bear the responsibility of killing a single life.

"I can't directly intervene in the matter of medicine, Dr. Jiang, if you are a doctor for your bright future, and want to be respected and earn a good income at the same time, you can leave the office, or even go outside to expose me, but if you are a doctor to save lives and fight death, then I need your help now. Lin Zhilan looked at the emotional Jiang Yiying, waiting for the final reply, she had obviously agreed to Liang Baoguang's plan.

Jiang Yuying clenched her fists, her knuckles became bloodless due to excessive force, and when she raised her head again, there seemed to be tears flashing in her eyes, but her eyes were a hundred times more firm than before, "I'm a doctor, let me ...... Do what I'm supposed to do. ”
