Emergency Department

"Doctor, come and take a look, what's wrong with him?!" A woman anxiously pulled Du Xiaxi and said.

The facial expression of the man on the hospital bed was a little distorted, his hands and feet were twitching non-stop, and it became difficult to breathe.

"Is the patient suffering from epilepsy?" Du Xiaxi approached to check, and the doctor who took her to make a round of the ward just looked at it, and then prescribed an intravenous injection of medicine.

When Du Xiaxi heard the name of the medicine, she frowned slightly and turned to look at him in doubt, but she didn't talk much since she just went to work, she just followed and watched.

After coming out of the ward, Du Xiaxi asked, "Has that patient had a thyroidectomy?"

"Well, I did it." The male doctor didn't seem to want to say more, and went straight to the office.

Du Xiaxi followed behind him and returned to the office. After sitting down, Du Xiaxi thought for a while, then checked the doctor's order of the patient just now on the computer, which was issued by the male doctor.

Du Xiaxi patiently read one by one, and sure enough, he found two boxes of calcium tablets that were not related to his illness. Just as he was about to look at them in detail, he reached out with a hand and turned off the computer directly. The male doctor stood by the desk with a gloomy face. , frowning and whispering, "What exactly do you want to check?"

"I suspect that you accidentally cut the patient's parathyroid gland during the operation." Du Xiaxi raised his head to meet the gaze of the male doctor, and said calmly.

"And then?" The male doctor said coldly, holding his arm.

"This is a medical malpractice, you should inform your family." Du Xiaxi stood up, almost at eye level with the male doctor.

"This is a common accident, so why make a fuss over a molehill, you know that the relationship between doctors and patients is quite tense now." The male doctor's attitude softened, but he still looked at Du Xiaxi with hostility.

"You also know the consequences of miscutting. This is equivalent to inexplicable 'epilepsy' for patients without knowing it, which is very unfair to them." Du Xiaxi complained for this patient, and as such a famous The hospital shouldn't hide things like this.

The male doctor wanted to say something more, just when the director came in, and seeing the two of them seemed to be arguing about something, he smiled and came over to persuade him, and the male doctor whispered the general process in the director's ear.

The director was still smiling, and waved to Du Xiaxi, "Xiao Du, you have only been here for a few days, and you still don't understand the situation. Come, come to my office."

Du Xiaxi followed the director into the office, and came out within 5 minutes. Her face was not good-looking. The director gave her some education just now. Now is the critical moment for the hospital to evaluate the top ten safe hospitals in the country. It can't be because of this A small mistake affects the honor of the entire hospital.

This is a trivial matter in the hospital, but to the patient, it will be a lifetime of pain, how can it be considered a trivial matter.

But the director said that the wrong cut can be made up for with medicine, but such a great honor is gone, and it will affect thousands of people in the whole hospital. What do you think is more important?

Du Xiaxi bowed his head and remained silent.

Coming out of the director's office, the male doctor changed his attitude just now and came over with a smile to apologize, "Xiao Du, I'm sorry, I had a problem with my attitude just now. Regarding that patient, I will admit my mistake to them at an appropriate time. I'm not evading responsibility, and I'm not considering everyone's interests, right? If you encounter any problems in your work in the future, just come to me, okay? "

This matter was put aside for the time being. The patient took the medicine on time for the next time, and did not have another attack. When he was discharged from the hospital, he even gave the male doctor a pennant. Du Xiaxi couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it.

Later, Du Xiaxi became the chief surgeon, and finally she could realize her long-cherished dream, but before an operation, the patient's family forced her an envelope when she was about to enter the operating room.

Du Xiaxi wanted to refuse, but at that moment, she could feel the uneasiness in the family members, as if if she refused the red envelope, she would not do her best to operate on the patient, so she had to accept the envelope first.

After the operation was completed, Du Xiaxi followed the patient back to the ward and returned the envelope to the patient's family.It turned out that because of this, another female doctor who had a good relationship with Du Xiaxi preached, "Xiaxi, you can't do this all the time. If the patients know about this, what can we do? You are not short of money, and You have gained a reputation of high integrity, and Xia Xi, you are capable, and you will be able to develop in the future. But we are different. After so many years of schooling, the tiredness of work is worse than that of workers moving bricks on the construction site. What do you do with a monthly salary? Yes?!"

Du Xiaxi sat quietly opposite and did not speak. The female doctor continued to say earnestly, "It's really not that doctors are all bad people now. It's the fault of this system. Look at the treatment of foreign doctors, how many days a week do you work? What about us? ?As long as the ICU doctor calls, I have to drop my things and rush over at any time. No, we have a critical patient, and everyone is guarding it. I haven’t been home for four days! Every day like this day and night Yes, if you say overtime, you will work overtime, let alone holidays. My son is five years old, and I haven't even celebrated his birthday..." The female doctor said that her voice was a little choked up.

"Being a doctor is very hard." When he was in medical school, Du Xiaxi heard this from his instructor, and he was mentally prepared, but when he really came here, he deeply realized how tiring it is to be a doctor. The pressure is so great, and the family members sometimes don't understand the doctor, thinking that it is their duty to save the life, and it is all dereliction of duty if they fail to save the life.

"So Xia Xi, you have only been working for a few years, and you don't understand at all that our pay and income are completely unequal. Are doctors not human? They also have to support their families, right? My classmate is a section chief in a government agency. I didn’t do much, but the money I got didn’t decrease. One month was almost worth half a year’s salary! I only received a few hundred yuan in red envelopes from others for a single operation, and I didn’t say anything to others, Xia Xi, You can say with conscience, am I black-hearted? Am I unprofessional? Isn’t this what I deserve? I just want to make more money to give my children a superior living condition... hey..."

The two sat in the corner of the doctor's cafeteria, and the female doctor complained to Du Xiaxi in a low voice.

"There are indeed problems with the current system, but I believe it will always get better in the future. Isn't the overall environment driven by everyone's actions?" After Du Xiaxi finished speaking, he felt that he was particularly like a party and government propagandist.

"Xiaxi, you are too idealistic. You can still believe in the policy. If it is implemented, I will probably retire. How can I enjoy it. Forget it, let's not talk about it, I don't know how much this month's bonus will be. Thinking about it makes me sick." It hurts...I have to go back to the department to watch, they are all veteran cadres, it’s not easy to take care of them, you can eat slowly.” The female doctor hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of food and left in a hurry.

Du Xiaxi leaned back in the chair and felt a little loss of appetite. He has been a doctor for several years, and he can feel her sadness and exhaustion, so he can't blame the other party for his actions. After all, there are gray areas in this world. You can't change others, you can only be yourself. This can be regarded as a small contribution to making the world better.

Just when Du Xiaxi was lost in thought, two male doctors sat behind her. Because there was a half-height partition between the two tables, they didn't notice her.

A male voice rang out, "Hey, do you know Du Xiaxi from the general public? Do you know if she has a boyfriend?"

The other was obviously very surprised, and replied, "Why, you want to chase her? I haven't heard that she has a boyfriend, but she has a personality problem. You, forget it."

"I look at her very well, and she is also very gentle."

"You can see that everyone is pretty good, just because they are beautiful! You don't even know. I heard her quarreling with Brother Wang that day. Do you know why?"

"Because of what?"

"She actually said that Brother Wang used too much hemostatic gauze during the operation. Sometimes we didn't put that thing in, and we billed it directly. Anyway, it is absorbable thing. Who knows if it is put in the stomach, and the family members can do it again. Can you open it to see if it works? We wrote the surgery log ourselves, so how to edit it is not easy.”

After a pause, he continued, "Brother Wang was also using it normally that time, but she put in an extra two yuan later, and she actually cared about it, and it wasn't her money that was spent. Do you think she is very interesting? She doesn't want to earn money. Don’t let others earn it, you really think you are the Holy Mother White Lotus, and you won’t eat the bonus we earn at the end of the month! How hypocritical!”

"You guys are a bit too much. The gauze costs more than 1000 per piece, and it's a lot of money to put two more dollars."

"That family is not short of money, the red envelopes for anesthesia are so thick! You don't want the free money, stupid!?"

"But I still think she's pretty good."

"Then you go after it, don't blame my buddy for not reminding you, how many times have you been with this object, and no one is reliable."

"I didn't break up with my ex-girlfriend because I didn't have any money. Hey, it sounds nice to be a doctor, but it's not easy to earn money. It seems that I have to learn more in the future."

In the end, Du Xiaxi still couldn't hold back, put down his chopsticks with a slap, and left with the plate, and said coldly as he passed by their table, "Maybe she broke up not because you have no money, but because as a doctor You, you have long forgotten the Hippocratic oath." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and put the dinner plate in the recycling place before leaving.

The two male doctors were taken aback, watching her leaving with some embarrassment, and one of them whispered, "Don't you think she's a little nervous?"

Although the voice was low, Du Xiaxi still heard it. She didn't stop, but continued walking on the road she thought she should go.

"Health is a matter of life, and life is inseparable!" The heartfelt oath when I first entered school turned out to be so ridiculous in the eyes of others.
