In the ICU, Wen Hao's body, as David expected, began to deteriorate again after a short period of calm.

High fever, shortness of breath, chills, and soon unconscious.

The worst-case scenario, however, is still inevitable.

"Extensive infection of the pleura and trauma, and symptoms of sepsis also appeared." David's brows furrowed extremely tightly: "Vancomycin and tigecycline have been used, and the biggest possibility is that drug-resistant bacteria have appeared."

"The results of the bacterial culture are in!" Dr. Hua, the attending doctor, hurriedly ran over: "You are right, it is indeed Acinetobacter baumannii!" ”

"I only sent it for testing an hour ago, how can I get the results so quickly?" Director Liu asked suspiciously.

As soon as he said this, everyone else reacted.

Yes, bacterial culture testing has always taken anywhere from one to five days, so how can it be done in an hour?

"Just now, the people in the laboratory department specially explained that they have replaced the testing equipment of Miao Technology, which is many times better than the previous one, so they can detect the germs in the specimen as soon as possible."

David and Dave were a little surprised when they heard this. Even if they come from countries where Western medicine is the most proficient, they have never heard of such advanced testing equipment.

Being able to detect the type of germ in such a short period of time is of course a blessing to the patient.

It's just that for Wen Hao, even if he knew earlier that it was Acinetobacter baumannii that made the trouble, there was no good way.

His life is like a candle in the wind, and it is impossible to defeat the attack of this superbug with his own immunity.

David's face was very unsightly. Anyone who rushed over to save people with enthusiasm, stayed up in the ICU for most of the night and half of the day, but in the end it was just this result, which is very difficult to accept.

"Let's treat it according to the previous plan." He said helplessly: "I'll talk to the patient's family, if they are willing to take the risk, then the patient still has a chance to live." ”

When Director Liu heard the last sentence, he immediately cheered up:

"Doctor David, at this point, do you have any other way?"

"You should have heard of my method." David said, "Bacteriophage, you know? ”

"I've heard of that." Dr. Hua, who rushed in just now to report the news, said: "Many laboratories are now studying it, specifically cultivating phages that specifically target drug-resistant bacteria and engulfing the bacteria. ”

"However, I haven't heard of anyone whose results can be applied to the clinic."

David nodded: "I know that there is a laboratory that has made great breakthroughs in animal testing, but unfortunately no human experiments have been conducted. ”

"If we are willing to provide this opportunity, they will definitely actively cooperate and provide the medicine for free."

"This won't work." Director Liu denied: "It's too dangerous." How can drugs that have not been clinically tested be used on patients? ”

"But without it, there is no hope for patients." Doctor Hua muttered quietly, and was immediately glared at fiercely by Director Liu.

"I don't agree." Director Liu said: "In the process of treating patients, every decision we make and every medicine we use is to save their lives. It is extremely irresponsible for patients to apply products that do not have guarantees and do not know the effect casually. ”

David spread his hands: "I support what you just said, respected Doctor Liu. It's just that in terms of treatment, the opinions of family members are also very important, and we should give them a chance to choose. ”

"This may be their son's only chance to live."

Director Liu suddenly hesitated and looked out of the glass window of the ICU.

Wen Weiguo's condition has improved, and they have returned here at the moment, inhaling oxygen while looking anxiously inside.

The gray hair on their heads stung Director Liu's eyes.

"You were hired by the patient's family, not our doctor." He said slowly:

"How you communicated with your family before, and what suggestions you have, we just want to manage, but we can't manage it."

David instantly understood what he meant.

"Liu, you are a very lovely person." He said as he walked out: "If we have the opportunity in the future, we may be able to become friends." ”

As soon as the foreign doctor came out, Wen Weiguo and Duan Guangsheng came forward.

In addition, Deputy Director Yu of the Municipal Health Bureau, who was entrusted by the city leaders to continue to follow up on the matter, was also extremely concerned about the progress of Wen Hao's condition.

David introduced the current situation, and everyone's hearts were extremely heavy.

Since Wen Hao's injury, everyone has been on a roller coaster, with all kinds of ups and downs.

The person who thought it would be impossible to save was saved by a luxury surgical team composed of experts from Beijing.

I was critically ill after being infected, and I couldn't survive the dawn, but I was able to meet a foreign expert who was traveling in Saska and saw the light of day again.

At this time, everyone had a feeling in their hearts that Wen Hao's life was still quite hard, he had survived all the difficulties in the front, and he should slowly improve in the back.

I didn't expect to be hit so hard again as soon as I relaxed.

They don't know much about what Acinetobacter baumannii is, but when it comes to superbugs, everyone doesn't know what it is.

"The patient's body is already extremely weak. As I told you before, the best antibiotics mean we don't have any other way. ”

"The infection will get worse. With the current plan, he will hardly ever have a chance to wake up again. ”

"Son, my son!" Mrs. Wen's weakened nerves couldn't control her emotions at all, and she cried bitterly on the spot.

Wen Weiguo's body also shook, and he could barely stand up with Duan Guangsheng's support.

"Doctor David, you tell me the truth, really, there is no way at all?"

He said this sentence very slowly, and his voice was weak, but a pair of eyes were staring straight at David's face, which was full of expectations that he did not dare to declare.

Seeing this scene, David put aside the last scruples in his heart.

"Actually, there is one last way." He said: "It's just that this method is too risky. ”

"It's already like this, what's the point of taking a little risk?" Hearing that Weimin's body was shocked, he broke free of Duan Guangsheng's grip, rushed forward and grabbed David's hand tightly:

"Whatever it takes, as long as it can save my son, I agree—even if it kills me."

When he said this, he remembered his son's voice and smile, and tears welled up in his eyes, dripping down David's hands and burning his heart.

He sighed in his heart, briefly introduced the situation of that laboratory, and specially emphasized that it is only at the end of animal testing, and has not yet been tested on humans.

But in despair, Wen Weimin, who finally saw a little starlight, responded without hesitation.

He didn't want to give up this last straw that could save his son.

Receiving the approval of the family, David breathed a sigh of relief: "I will contact them immediately." It will take at least a day to deliver the medicine from country A, and hopefully he can get through it. ”

Just then, Dave suddenly appeared.

"David." He said in E language, "Master contacted me just now and said that she has a special medicine. ”
