Since 1981 Health School

  Chapter 197 Admission of the first patient

  Looking at the onlookers with anticipation, Chen Qi couldn't understand what was going on.

  Today is October 1st, the first day of the opening of the Huangtan Health Center's surgery department. After hearing the news, these patients came to line up early all night.

  Chen Qi was a little moved, and at the same time he was finally relieved: as long as there are patients, surgery is half the success.

   "Folks, don't worry, the surgery department of our health center will admit patients from today, and can also perform operations, but due to limited conditions, we can only accept some general surgery patients."

  Boom~~~~

   Hearing the exact promise, the crowd exploded.

   "Ah, after so many years, the government finally thinks of us mountain people."

   "Yes, if we had surgery in the mountains earlier, my father wouldn't have had intestinal inflammation and died of pain."

   "Our Longfeng Commune started at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. It's not easy. Can you let us see a doctor first?"

   "Let my mother come first, she is in too much pain, doctor, please help me."

  The entrance of the health center became a mess in no time. Chen Qi was dragged, this one was going to the east, that one was going to the west, and the whole person was about to be torn apart.

   At this time, there was a roar from behind the crowd: "What are you doing? Stop it!"

  The common people turned their heads in surprise,

  Chen Qi saw that the savior was coming: "Dean, it's great that you're here, this, this..."

  President Yan gave Chen Qi a white look:

   "What is this, you are a doctor, you are performing surgery, I will take care of such trivial matters, hurry up, there are so many patients waiting, you hurry up and wash your face, and start seeing patients immediately."

  Chen Qi looked at the sky in the east before it was dimly lit, and then looked at the many patients in front of him, knowing that today is a shot at the door, and it must be an instant hit.

   "Okay, Dean Yan, you can identify it on the spot first, and send those with serious symptoms to the consulting room first, and I will go to the preparation work right away."

  Dean Yan nodded heavily: "Then let's start."

  When the onlookers heard that the doctors were going to see a doctor before dawn, they all applauded and applauded loudly.

  Dean Yan was happy in his heart, but he still shouted:

"Folks, please be quiet. Let me talk about some things first. First of all, our hospital currently only has two wards with 8 beds, so everyone will let the seriously ill patients come first. Some operations can be performed at an optional time, so we will Register for an appointment first.

  Other mild patients, such as outpatient surgery, can be solved without hospitalization. Even if we work overtime, we will help you to deal with it. We promise not to let everyone make an extra trip. Now, everyone line up and we will come one by one. "

  When the onlookers heard that there were only 8 hospital beds, they immediately crowded into a group, and many people even fought to line up.

   But this is the fiery temper of the mountain people, and Dean Yan can't control it to the end, after all, he is not the kind of dignified person.

  Chen Qi turned on the lights in the office, and shouted at the window: "Dean, let the patient in."

   "Okay, come on, the first old man goes in first."

   Just like that, the first surgery in the history of Huangtan Health Center opened. There were no firecrackers, and no speeches from superior leaders. It started before dawn.

  The first person to bring in was an old man in his 60s. As soon as he entered the door, the family members called out:

   "Doctor, please help my father to take a look. His stomach pain is an old problem, and he rolls all over the floor every time in pain. Can he have a surgery to solve it?"

  Chen Qi thought that you were thinking so lightly. If you had a stomachache, you would have to have an operation. In case it was Kethun's disease or tuberculous enteritis, there was no way to have an operation.

   But he definitely couldn’t say that, “Okay, don’t worry, let me check first, some diseases can be operated on, and some diseases cannot be operated on.”

   As a result, the stomach was pressed in a circle, and the old man yelled pain in the right middle abdomen near the ribs:

   "Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, take it easy~~~"

  Everyone who studies medicine knows that this place is called Murphy's point, and it hurts when you press it. This is called a positive Murphy's sign, a typical gallbladder disease.

   But gallbladder disease is divided into many types, especially long-term pain, and an old man, if it is gallbladder cancer, it will be troublesome, so Chen Qi decided to cheat once.

   "Your father has a problem with his gallbladder. I need to check how it is. You guys go out first. I'll call you when it's ready."

  The common people in the 1980s were still very obedient, they didn’t speak up, and they did what the doctors asked them to do.

   "Okay, doctor, please check, we will wait at the door."

  As soon as the family members went out, Chen Qi immediately went to the debridement room next door, took out a bedside notebook type B-ultrasound machine from the space, and began to check the old man.

  Bedside B-ultrasound machine, bedside X-ray machine, this kind of advanced equipment of later generations is not very risky to use in the mountains, and the people in the mountains have little knowledge. Generally, doctors can do what they say, and they will not question and argue.

  If someone really asked, they said that it was the latest inspection machine invented by the country. Anyway, people in the mountains these days have never even heard of B-ultrasound X-ray.

   Sure enough, the old man lay down obediently, showing his belly, without asking any questions. Chen Qi quickly checked around, and he was convinced.

   It is indeed cholecystitis, and there are many stones. This operation is not difficult. If Chen Qi didn't want to make too much publicity, otherwise he would take out the laparoscope now, make a few holes, and he would be discharged home in three days.

  However, in the 1980s, only traditional laparotomy could be used.

  The family members came in, and Chen Qi instructed:

   "Your father is definitely suffering from cholecystitis and gallstones. After a while, the people in the hospital will go to work. You will be hospitalized first, and then you will not be able to eat or drink. We will have surgery tomorrow."

  The family members were anxious: "Doctor, we came from Zhangjiang Village and carried my father up the mountain road in the middle of the night. Why don't you let us go to the hospital first?"

   At this time, another clever family member hurriedly said:

   "Doctor, my father was in so much pain that he didn't eat all day and night yesterday, and took a sip of water. Do you think it can be operated on?"

  Chen Qi was delighted when he heard it: "That's just right, you can have the operation without eating. After that, after you are hospitalized, I will definitely help you move it today."

  The patient was in unbearable pain, "Doctor, is it possible that the surgery will stop the pain?"

  Chen Qi smiled, and said firmly:

   "Don't worry, old man, it won't hurt anymore, but this kind of major operation requires hospitalization, plus the operation fee, it will cost at least 30 yuan. I hope you will be mentally prepared."

   "The money is fine, I saved a little, and my sons put together some more, enough, I want an operation, if you don't give me an operation, you are not filial sons."

  The old man was also in pain, anxious, and yelled at his sons.

  When the sons heard this, they promised again and again that they would definitely raise money.
