"This is a hospital so please lower your voice," Zheng Ren said with a frown.

Chapter 484 - The Boyfriend Would Not Inform The Family
The burly man had just regained his composure when he heard Zheng Ren's words. He immediately bowed again.
"I'm sorry, Chief Zheng. I forgot about that fact in my excitement. Forgive me, please forgive me."
"It's okay." Zheng Ren smiled.
"Li San, what the hell are you doing here? I'm going to settle your debts with you today."
"I... I..." Li San's face was crestfallen as smiled apologetically.
Zheng Ren could not be bothered to look at Li San right now. However, it seemed that he had found Lian Xiaoliu something to 'do' again.
He needed to find a way to treat him to more skewers. That seemed to be the only way he could repay him.
"You guys seem busy so I'll head back first," Zheng Ren said. "We'll try to reduce the patient's hospitalization expenses as much as possible. It's best not to give up. The chances of recovery are very high. When it reaches severe pancreatitis however, things will be different then."
"Okay. Chief Zheng, you go ahead first," the big man said with a smile. After that, he turned around and changed his expression. He kicked the other man in the stomach. This caused his back to hit the wall behind him, making a 'dong' sound.
"Chief Zheng said to take good care of the patient! You're lucky that you need to take care of the patient!"
Zheng Ren could not be bothered to listen. He greeted Chief Xia before leaving the gastroenterology department.
Behind him, he vaguely heard the burly man reprimanding the other ruffian. He could not hear him clearly but it was probably something like how Lian Xiaoliu had said that he was not allowed to cause trouble at Sea City General Hospital and should be taking care of the patient properly. Mr. Gold Chain seemed to be in debt and was in hiding. If it was not for his mother being sick, he would not have actually appeared in public. From the looks of it, this person seemed to be alright.
Lian Xiaoliu was quite capable. Zheng Ren smiled.
Just as he walked out of the gastroenterology department, Zheng Ren's phone rang.
His blood pressure rose slightly as Zheng Ren picked up his phone. When he saw that the called ID was Su Yun, he immediately relaxed.
"Hello.
"Oh, Chief Xia came to me for a consultation after I left the operating theatre.
"Yeah, I was just about to go to the ICU to take a look. You should be in charge of the thesis. I trust you enough, okay?
"Stop bullsh*tting. I'm going to the Provincial Capital for surgery in the next few days. Are you going to take a look?
"Okay, let's meet up and talk."
With that, Zheng Ren hung up the phone and slowly walked toward the ICU.
After the surgery, he received the System reward for his access to the Library. Zheng Ren only took a few glances at it before Gao Shaojie came in.
He was going to take a look at the patients first. If there was nothing important, he would go into the System space and read the books in the Library.
Just by flipping through them, Zheng Ren had a rough understanding of how the System's Library worked.
It basically contained all kinds of periodicals and magazines one could find throughout the years. There was nothing special about it. Moreover, there were no magazines with future dates. All of them were already in existence.
If this library was useful, it was really useful.
Recently, Zheng Ren had encountered a few cases that were difficult to deal with. For example, long hair princess disease. He began to have the idea of reading more periodicals.
However, it was not as practical as he had hoped.
It would be better if he could see future journals. Think about it. What would be written in journals ten years from now? How beautiful would it be if he could be one step ahead of others.
Unfortunately, the System did not seem to have the ability to do such a thing.
However, it was not bad for him to be able to browse through all the literature without leaving the house. It saved him the time he would need to search for it himself.
While pondering this, Zheng Ren had already arrived in front of the ICU.
An ICU doctor was explaining a young man's condition to him.
The young man looked tired with dark circles under his eyes. His hair looked like it had not been washed in days. It looked like he had a horrible haircut.
As he spoke, the young man bowed. He was very serious. Zheng Ren could feel it.
"Chief Zheng, you're here." The ICU doctor greeted Zheng Ren warmly when he saw him.
"Yeah, are you busy?"
"Brother Yun is waiting for you inside. I'll go in after we finish chatting," the ICU doctor beckoned.
Zheng Ren changed his clothes and walked into the ICU. He saw Su Yun leaning against the counter of the nurses' station, chatting and laughing with the young nurses.
This meant that everything was fine. Whenever Zheng Ren saw Su Yun chatting and laughing, he knew that the patient's condition was stable.
"Boss, you're here?" Su Yun said.
"Yes, is the patient's condition stable? When can we remove the tube?" Zheng Ren asked.
"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow," Su Yun said casually.
Zheng Ren nodded and came to the front of the bed of the patient who had been penetrated by a steel bar. The background color in the upper right-hand corner of the System's panel was much lighter. This was a sign that the patient's condition was getting better.
As long as he could recover, that was good enough. Zheng Ren thought of the patient's parents who were squatting on the ground and leaning against the wall. He hoped that this young man did not have to be so competitive.
If he could get into the Qing Dynasty, was it that important to be number one?
Perhaps some of the top students thought so. However, when they arrived in the Qing Dynasty, they would be dealt a huge blow.
This was because there could only be one top student!
There were thirty to fifty top students in the country gathered together, and there was always a difference between them.
Children were not ambitious, which made people worried. It was not a good thing to be too ambitious.
Zheng Ren saw that the drainage near the patient's anus was almost gone, and the gauze dressing on the incision was clean and fresh. He knew that Su Yun had just changed it.
'My assistant is really flawless,' Zheng Ren praised in his heart. Would it not be better if he was not so willing to criticize others all the time?
Right after the physical examination, the ICU doctor who had been talking with the patient's family walked in.
Her expression was a little ugly.
"What's wrong? Did the patient's family offend you?" Su Yun asked.
"It's nothing, Brother Yun." The ICU doctor shook his head. "They didn't offend me. It's just that I couldn't bear delivering the news to them."
"What patient?" Zheng Ren asked.
"Influenza made complicated with pneumonia.She was sent to the ICU directly from the emergency department last night," Su Yun said. "Her condition is particularly bad. I checked and found out she has congenital heart disease. The patient's representative family is only her boyfriend. He said that he wouldn't look for her own family no matter what."
"Which bed?" Zheng Ren asked.
"Bed J-8."
Zheng Ren went over and saw a 21 to 22-year-old girl lying there with tracheal intubation. She was assisted by a ventilator.
The System's panel gave its diagnoses, such as double pneumonia, respiratory failure, and patent ductus arteriosus.
The ductus arteriosus was the normal blood flow channel between the pulmonary artery and the aorta in the fetal period. After
birth, the ductus arteriosus would close automatically due to disuse.
In some people, the Ductus arteriosus did not close by itself. This would cause mixed blood from the arteries and veins, resulting in symptoms such as insufficient oxygen content in the arteries.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/the-boyfriend-would-not-inform-the-family_50182146983251289 for visiting.
The clinical manifestation of patent ductus arteriosus mainly depends on the amount of blood from the aorta to the pulmonary artery shunt, and whether or not the secondary pulmonary hypertension was produced plus its degree of severity.
Mild patients may not have obvious symptoms, while severe patients may develop symptoms such as heart failure and lower body cyanosis.
Zheng Ren went to check. The patient's symptoms were most typical for her state.
Because the flu had caused double pneumonia, the oxygen content in the blood continued to drop, resulting in respiratory system failure and other complications.
It was not difficult to treat the patient.
Whether it was surgery to crack the sternum, ligation of the artery catheter, mediastinoscopy with a titanium clip, or interventional treatment, the patient could be cured completely.
It was just that the patient's current condition made it difficult for the cardiothoracic surgery department to perform the surgery.
However, it could still be treated through interventional surgery.
Seeing that Zheng Ren was in a daze, Su Yun walked to Zheng Ren's side and sighed. "Boss, are you thinking about the surgery?"
Zheng Ren did not say anything and nodded.
"The patient has no money," Su Yun said, straight to the point. "Every day, her fees go unpaid but her little boyfriend is really loyal. He'd make up for it early in the morning and then ask for more money."
"What about his home?"
"This is the strangest thing. Her boyfriend refuses to say anything and didn't inform her family about this."
Chapter 485 - Benign Disease?
Zheng Ren knew what the thorny issue was.
Without the patient's immediate family members, he could not even sign the critical illness notice.
Boyfriend? Who was he? Someone of his position would not be able to sign any forms at all.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/benign-disease_50182152368750538 for visiting.
From what Su Yun said, the expenses were most probably being shouldered by her boyfriend alone. Perhaps, he had not slept the whole night and had gone everywhere to raise money.
Zheng Ren shook his head.
"Can you do an interventional surgery for her?" Su Yun probed.
"I think so." Zheng Ren's answer was very ambiguous.
This was because he had always been involved in organ interventional therapy and not intervention of blood vessels, heart, and nerves. Therefore, Zheng Ren did not dare to say too much.
However, the Grandmaster-level skill set for interventional surgery was not to be trifled with.
Although he had never done it before, Zheng Ren believed that as long as he entered the System's operating theater to practice a few times, it would not be a problem for him to perform the simplest interventional surgery for the patent ductus arteriosus.
"Boss, you're quite impressive. You can perform interventional surgery across disciplines." Su Yun smiled and continued, "I know, I know. I'll contact the patient's parents. Once there's news, I'll look for you. But as for the cost..."
"Let me ask." Zheng Ren also knew that the survival of the young girl might depend on a few thousand yuan worth of interventional equipment.
This was also something that he had no choice but to do.
He took out his phone and dialed.
"Manager Feng, it's me.
"I have something to ask first. Does Changfeng have any equipment to deal with patent ductus arteriosus?
"Oh, okay. We haven't decided whether to do it or not. If necessary, can you apply for a waiver from your headquarters? Treat it as a promotion.
"Thank you." Zheng Ren's gratitude was quite nonchalant. He then remembered something and said, "Oh right, Manager Feng, you might have to go to the Provincial Capital's First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University for TIPS surgery tomorrow and the day after that…"
"Oh, Teacher Gao has contacted you about it already.
"It's all ready. That's great. We'll talk when we meet. "
After that, Zheng Ren hung up the phone.
Su Yun looked at Zheng Ren with a smile and said, "Boss, you're using Changfeng as if you're ordering your own livestock. You're such a bigshot."
"It's just some equipment. It's no big deal." Zheng Ren smiled. "Changfeng owes me a favor for being able to get their products into a Capital hospital. This time, he might even be able to get into a Provincial hospital."
"Tsk, tsk. I thought you didn't know."
"I'm not stupid. I'm just too lazy to talk about it." Zheng Ren turned around to leave. "Go talk to the patient's family and tell them about the free stuff. After that, give me a call."
Su Yun was stunned. Zheng Ren really seemed like a hands-off manager now.
However, he had the reason and qualification to do so.
A few thousand dollars worth of equipment. He said that it was free but could still afford to do the surgery. This was his own ability.
"Boss, I want to go to the Provincial Capital with you," Su Yun said.
"Okay, let's go together." Zheng Ren did not care. "However, you have to apply for leave from Chief Physician Pan. It's one full day, not just one night."
"Okay." Su Yun answered in a straightforward manner.
Outside the ICU, Zheng Ren was planning to go to the Provincial Capital to do TIPS surgery. He was particularly interested in the final task.
The super-long surgery training time was the best reward.
He had to hurry up. Every day that he was delayed, he would lose one day of surgery training.
With Zheng Ren's squirrel-like personality, just thinking about it made his heart ache.
Walking back slowly, Zheng Ren first went to Chief Physician Pan's office to sit for a while and report on his recent schedule. After that, he returned to the emergency ward.
The sun shone in through the windows and was warm. Zheng Ren sat in a chair for a while and pretended to be reading. He lowered his head and entered the System space.
After completing the [Boundless Love] mission, there was an additional floating console in the System space.
It had a very sci-fi and futuristic feel to it.
Zheng Ren could select periodicals and magazines on the console. After selecting them, a magazine would appear in front of him.
However, the reading materials could not be brought out of the System space. It was different from the lead apron that was rewarded by the mission.
Zheng Ren finally had the time to start looking at various periodicals.
Those with an impact factor of less than 10 were ignored. This was because there were so many that reading them would just be a waste of time.
In the end, Zheng Ren confirmed that there were no future journals.
Although the System did not give Zheng Ren future journals, foreign journals and magazines had been translated into Mandarin for his perusal.
This seemed to be a good way to save lots of time.
Sitting beside the pond in the System space, Zheng Ren happily flipped through the magazines.
Time flew by. After an unknown amount of time, Zheng Ren heard a knock on the door.
He exited the System space and looked up. He saw a man and a woman in their thirties. The man was carrying a bag of films a
nd wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked quite refined.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Excuse me, is Dr. Zheng here?" the man asked.
"That would be me. You are..."
"I brought my fiancée to the Secondary Hospital. Chief Wang gave me the recommendation to come here," the man said with a smile.
"Oh, come in then." Zheng Ren waved his hand while standing up at the same time as he went toward the film reader.
However, the man did not hand the film bag to Zheng Ren. Instead, he took out a folder from the film bag.
"Dr. Zheng, take a look at this. This is the report of all the examinations for my fiancée," the man said. "Half a month ago during our premarital physical examination, we found that she has a hemangioma in her liver.
"Hemangioma?" Zheng Ren asked.
"They're messy capillaries that have grown together. It's a benign disease. I've looked it up before. However, my fiancée was very worried, so she went to a specialist hospital to have them take a look."
Zheng Ren's heart skipped a beat. He did not say anything. He just took the folder and flipped through it on his own.
"I checked the information and said that it was a hemangioma that was treated with liver surgery twenty years ago. However, the post-surgery trauma was too big. I heard that there are now interventional procedures available."
"Yes, hemangioma is usually treated once or twice. There are basically no risks of rupture." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "It's only a benign disease. If the hemangioma is less than 5cm, you can just observe it over the years. Your fiancée's hemangioma is now at a critical value, though. Whether you want to do the surgery or not is up to you."
Zheng Ren looked through all the examinations. The examination report showed that the patient had two hemangiomas in her liver. The major one was 5.1cm, while the minor one was 3.5cm.
One surgery should be enough.
However, the man's behavior was a little strange. Zheng Ren did not say much, wanting to wait and see what would happen.
"Look, I told you that it's fine," the man said to the patient.
The female patient looked to be about 27 or 28 years old. She was slightly chubby, with an adorable-looking face.
