Back To The Age Of The '80s

It was the drug eruption where the carbapenem side effects started.

"Monitor body temperature, electrocardiogram, teacher, can you hear my voice? Don't be afraid, it's normal to feel vomiting, bear with it, half an hour will pass." Li Zheng looked at the mechanical watch on his wrist, Said calmly.

He has experienced countless drug clinical trials, but this time is definitely the most special drug clinical trial.

"Wang Jing, are you ready, intramuscular injection in 5 minutes."

Wang Jing swallowed, nodded vigorously, her hand holding the syringe trembled slightly.

"Vomit..." Xu Mingsheng's face suddenly turned pale, and he suddenly rolled over to the side of the bed retching, throwing up all the millet porridge that he had finally fed in the morning.

Chen Sufen stepped forward and patted Xu Mingsheng's back lightly, "Old Xu spit out Li Zheng's medicine."

"Feed it in again!" Li Zheng said without thinking.

Xu Mingsheng's retching continued, and he could no longer vomit anything, but his stomach churned like an earthquake, and he lay weakly on the side of the bed, almost throwing up all the bile.

"Old Xu, you have to take it!" Chen Sufen's eyes glistened with tears, she opened Xu Mingsheng's mouth, and forcefully poured the medicine into his mouth.

Xu Mingsheng's face was painful, he couldn't help shaking his head, but Chen Sufen didn't soften her heart, she covered his mouth and refused to let go.

Bitter bile flowed out along Xu Mingsheng's mouth and touched Chen Sufen's hand, but Chen Sufen still did not let go.

When the second hand passed twelve o'clock, Li Zheng raised his head, "Wang Jing, intramuscular injection."

"Hey!" Wang Jing responded heavily. She took a deep breath and grabbed Xu Mingsheng's arm. Xu Mingsheng's arm was very stiff due to violent vomiting.

"Professor Xu, take it easy, or it will hurt a little." Wang Jing said while stabbing the lower edge of Xu Mingsheng's deltoid muscle.

The medicine was smoothly pushed into Xu Mingsheng's body, Wang Jing wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then looked at Li Zheng.

Li Zheng looked away from his wristwatch, nodded to her, and stopped talking, the next thing was to look at Xu Mingsheng himself.

He has seen Xu Mingsheng's medical records and medication records. Xu Mingsheng has no history of antibiotic allergy, and carbapenems do not have the thiazole ring of penicillins, so there is generally no cross-allergic reaction.Li Zheng's only concern is the drug's nephrotoxicity.

Compared with imipenem, which was launched on the market in [-], the carbapenems extracted by Li Zheng have not been biodetoxified, nor have they been dosed or diluted, which requires the patient's own immune resistance strength and will to survive.

Every minute and every second that followed was very difficult for the people in the ward. Xu Mingsheng's drug eruption and retching reaction became more and more severe. The red rash densely covered both arms and spread to his face.

The veins on Chen Sufen's forehead bulged, and everyone knew that she was holding back her grief.

After an hour or two hours, Xu Mingsheng's reaction gradually became calmer. He was like a person who was almost drowning. He finally swam to the shore and took a deep breath of fresh air.

"It's dropping! Old Xu's body temperature is dropping!" Chen Sufen looked at the numbers on the temperature monitor, her voice trembling slightly.

There was an instant commotion in the ward, and Xu Keqiang's whole body was posted on the body temperature monitor. 38.7 degrees Celsius was still a high temperature, but compared to the high temperature of more than 39 degrees that lasted for several days, it was already a very surprising number.

Almost everyone looked at Li Zheng with admiration. This 17-year-old boy is not tall. Does genius really exist in this world?

Now they can answer without hesitation, existence, there is one in front of them!

"Master, the duration of the nephrotoxicity outbreak of carbapenems is only within three hours after the drug enters the human body. The teacher has passed the dangerous period, and his body temperature will drop after another hour. It’s almost enough for him to add some glucose.”

Chen Sufen covered her mouth excitedly, she wiped away the excited tears from her eyes, "Thank you, thank you Li Zheng!"

"Thank you, Li Zheng!" Xu Keqiang said.

"Little brother, you are amazing!"

"Little brother, good job!"

The dull atmosphere in the ward was swept away, everyone's originally heavy mood became lighter, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became warm and cheerful.

However, Li Zheng's tense nerves still did not relax. He looked at the watch on his wrist, and it was almost seven o'clock in the morning.

"Professor Chen, how are the patients in the isolation room outside?"

Li Zheng thought, with the example of Xu Mingsheng, the hospital should be more accepting of this brand new antibiotic.

When Chen Sufen heard this, she put away her excitement a little bit, and her expression became serious.

"As of five o'clock in the morning, two people died in the isolation ward, three people entered the emergency room due to organ failure, and the rest are still on antibiotics."

"Professor Chen, I think..." Before Li Zheng finished speaking, Chen Sufen interrupted.

"Mr. Li Zheng, on behalf of the Queen Mary Hospital, I implore you to sell the carbapenem antibiotics in your hand as special medicines temporarily purchased by our hospital." Chen Sufen looked serious, but she looked at Li Zheng very gently. .

Li Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Professor Chen was doing this to protect him.

She purchases medicines on behalf of Queen Mary Hospital. If a patient dies due to drug toxicity, Queen Mary Hospital will bear the brunt. Although Li Zheng, the supplier, is also involved, there is a lot of room for maneuver.

Chen Sufen wanted to protect Li Zheng to the greatest extent under the worst plan.

Li Zheng couldn't help being a little moved, he opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

"Teacher..."

Chen Sufen stepped forward and patted Li Zheng on the shoulder, "My good boy, you are a treasure bestowed by God to mankind, you should stay in the laboratory and study it with great concentration, and leave the rest to us."

Chen Sufen is a professor of clinical medicine at the School of Medicine of Hongkong University, but what few people know is that Chen Sufen still holds [-]% of the shares of Queen Mary Hospital, so she can speak on behalf of the hospital. Have to discuss with others at Queen Mary Hospital.

"A Qiang, look at your father, I'll go out for a while." As she spoke, she sorted out Xu Mingsheng's medical records, and then walked out with a thick stack of documents.

Li Zheng pursed his lips and followed immediately.

"Master, there are some things in the experimental notes that probably only I can explain."

"No! Absolutely not! How can we try drugs that are not on the market and have not even passed clinical trials on our patients! This is a crime!" The deputy director of Mary Hospital put the quilt on the table heavily, panting heavily gruffly.

Chen Sufen slapped the table heavily, "Chen Xuhua, who are you talking about committing a crime!"

Dean Chen's momentum suddenly weakened, "Teacher, that's not what I meant."

He scratched his head vigorously. Chen Xuhua hadn't slept for two days and two nights. He is the vice president of Queen Mary Hospital and also the director of tumor surgery. This Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection started from the ICU ward of tumor surgery. .When the infection first broke out, he only thought it was a mutation of the flu virus, and only ordered enhanced disinfection, but he did not expect to cause drug-resistant bacterial infections throughout the hospital.

In Chen Xuhua's heart, he blamed himself and was annoyed. He stayed on the front line for the past two days and went to the isolation room several times. He kept telling the patients to have confidence and the will to survive.

When the patient looked at him expectantly and asked him: "President Chen, can we still be saved?", he nodded vigorously, and tears flowed out of his eyes.

He's still a fucking doctor, so many patients who are struggling with life and death, he can't save any of them!

"Teacher, to ensure the safety of medicines, this is the basic professional ethics of a doctor! The doctor's code, and the relevant clauses in the doctor's practice regulations..." Chen Xuhua was brought out by Chen Sufen, and he still respects his mentor.

Chen Sufen's attitude also softened a bit, "Xiao Chen, Lao Xu has already taken medicine. Here are his medication records and drug reaction reports. Carbapenem antibiotics are effective! Doctors' guidelines and professional regulations are still mine. I read with you, these clauses are relatively clear to me, but Xiao Chen, do you still remember the first sentence I said to you in the first class? The patient's life is above everything else!"

When Chen Xuhua heard this, his expression was a little dazed. He seemed to have thought of something, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"I'm [-]% sure that I will be responsible for all the consequences after the patient is injected with antibiotics." Chen Sufen's always gentle face was full of seriousness.

Standing there with her not-so-tall body, Chen Xuhua suddenly felt as if he had returned to that classroom that could even be called simple and crude more than 20 years ago. Professor Chen had the same expression.

He remembered that Professor Chen walked into the classroom with the book in his arms, and the first sentence he said was, "You will all be doctors in the future. What is the job of a doctor? It is to cure diseases and save lives. I hope that no matter where you go or where you are in the future, you will never forget the patients. Your life is above all else!"

Chen Xuhua slammed the table and stood up, "I see, teacher." He took the case of Xu Mingsheng from Chen Sufen's hand and began to study it carefully.

Li Zheng stepped forward and explained the mechanism of action of carbapenems and their effects and defects.

Chen Xuhua couldn't help nodding, and looked at Li Zheng with admiration in shock, "It is said that a great chivalrous man is for the country and the people. Mr. Li Zheng, you are a chivalrous man among scholars!"

Li Zheng shook his head, "Dean Chen, you are absurd. I am just an experimenter. Without the courage of you and Professor Chen, these things of mine would not be useful."

Li Zheng really admired the high-end intellectuals in the 80s. They paid more attention to life while doing knowledge. You can see the shining points accumulated by the Chinese nation in them.To be honest, in his era, if he wanted to accomplish this, he would probably need to write a lot of commitment letters, promising that all consequences of this matter would be borne by him personally.

Chen Xuhua smiled wryly, "Mr. Adolf is not a problem, let me tell you. Mr. Li Zheng, please go back and prepare enough potions. The ones in your box are far from enough."

"Teacher, I will call the doctors in the hospital to screen patients with normal renal function and immune resistance to meet the standard, and inject the medicine first."

Li Zheng's expression froze when he heard this. Chen Xuhua's meaning was already very clear. Patients with renal function deficiency and weak immunity will not be given injections for the time being. This means that these people have already been sentenced to death without even a chance to challenge.Li Zheng shook his head and smiled wryly, the world is difficult, this is already the best way to get the best of both worlds, isn't it?
