2792 Chapter 2792: return to the peak, turn of the road

Boss Zheng, are you confident? Zhao Yunlong asked in a low voice.

Lets try it. I think it shouldnt be a problem.

With the song good luck comes, old he began to administer medicine and perform intubation.

Everything was going smoothly without any unexpected complications. Seeing that the patients vital signs were stable, director Xu was relieved. As long as he could get through the anesthesia, it had nothing to do with him. As for the rest, it was up to the magnanimous people to worry about.

And in the case that he was just explaining, director Xu felt that it was best if he did not need to perform surgery. Since it did not concern him, he was too lazy to think about it.

Boss Zheng, what have you been busy with recently? Department Director Xu smiled. The patient was already under anesthesia, so his voice was a little louder.

This isnt a collective poisoning of the students of No. 2 middle school at noon. Im going to partic.i.p.ate in the sampling and find the cause of the illness. Zheng Ren said.

Second middle school I heard that the food in the student canteen is not bad.

Yes, I went to take a look. Theyre all fine. Zheng Ren said,we suspect that theres something wrong with the fresh fruit juice, which caused the students to have acute copper poisoning.

Director Xu was stunned and looked at boss Zheng speechlessly. Acute copper poisoning was also a rare sight. Boss Zheng was really busy these days. He didnt know how long he could follow this patient.

By the way, boss Zheng, didnt you say that you have a live surgery broadcast in the afternoon? Director Xu asked.

I didnt do anything, I was busy with food poisoning. Zheng Ren sighed. He hoped that the CDC would do the test soon and solve the problem. It was a good thing that the live surgery broadcast started earlier. He was mainly thinking about the rewards given by the system.

Copper poisoning is quite rare. The patient today is also rare. Director Xu chuckled and said,boss Zheng, when I saw the X-ray, I felt that a thoracotomy was needed. However, the risk of opening up the chest is quite high. Thats why Im disturbing your work.

Youre welcome, director Xu. Ive already finished my work on my end when you asked Fang Lin to make the call. Take the oranges from the fresh fruit juice Machine to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention for testing. The results will probably be out in two hours, so theres no delay.

Zheng Ren said with a smile.

Would there be a lot of copper in an orange? How did he get in? Does it look better to keep it fresh or to look good? Director Xu was a little confused.

I dont understand either. Ive never heard of copper being of any help to Cheng.

Normally, orange sellers wax the surface of the orange to make it look more l.u.s.trous, but they dont sell it in large quant.i.ties. Su Yun said,but the copper element doesnt help with appearance. I dont understand it either.

Director Xu wanted to say something, but his mouth moved slightly. In the end, he didnt make a sound.

Zheng Ren understood and smiled.I dont think theres anything wrong with the medical history that doctor Chang asked about. The medical history shows that the students who suffered from food poisoning shared a common experience of drinking freshly squeezed orange juice.

Lets wait and see. Im not sure about the details. Su Yun held her phone in her hand as she looked at the television screen of Department Director li of the Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery who was performing a laparoscope. No one knew what she was thinking.

The surgery went smoothly and ended in less than an hour.

Before waking up from general anesthesia, Zheng Ren gave the patient an ultrasound and found that the heart had moved a few centimeters to the left again. The patients vital signs were stable and there were no abnormalities.

If it were not for the fact that a CT scan had been performed before the operation and the basic clinical skills of the 912 medical staff were not strong enough to directly see the hearts torsion, the patient would have been ignored.

Many doctors would even treat it as a congenital right heart.

Boss Zheng, where should we send the next patient? Director Xu asked.

You can go to the icu or the general ward. The most dangerous time is when you perform intubation. After this period, the patient will slowly recover. Zheng Ren said.

Department Director li of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery thought for a while and still sent the patient to the icu. What a joke. For a patient with cardiac torsion, what if the vygus nerve was accidentally stimulated during the reduction and the patients heart stopped?

If he were to return to the general ward, would he need to arrange special care for him?

Zheng Ren didnt care about these things. When he saw that the patient had woken up, he smiled and said,if theres nothing else, well take our leave first.

Alright, lets keep in touch if theres anything.

Boss, Are you sure? Su Yun asked as they arrived at the changing room.

Almost. If a heart herniated, there would have been symptoms a long time ago. It wouldnt have acted up when the heart was slowly resetting. Zheng Ren said with certainty.

Who gave you the confidence? Su Yun asked in confusion.

Im speaking in a mumble, so you told me not to talk to you in the tone of a patient. What I said definitely wont work. What do you want? Zheng Ren said.

Su Yun spread out her hands and looked at the sky.

[They said ]

Zheng Ren picked up the phone.

Nothing? That cant be.

Alright, director Lin, I understand.

After a brief exchange, Zheng Ren hung up the phone. His eyebrows were knitted together as he pondered seriously.

Su Yun already knew what had happened from the phone call. He was also very confused. By right, Chang Yues medical history should not have any problems. Could it be that she had missed out on something?

It was really strange. Su Yun was also seriously thinking about it, which was rare.

However, he really couldnt think of anything. Zheng Ren went through the matter again. Just now, Division Chief Lin said that there were only some minor problems with the various samples collected in the cafeteria and had already ordered for them to be rectified. However, small problems referred to things like mold and bacteria, which had nothing to do with copper.

Whats going on Should I go and see the students from second high? Zheng Ren had such an idea.

Before Zheng Ren could make a decision, his phone rang again.

This time, it was fan Tianshui.

President Zheng, someone is trying to move the machine. Fan Tianshuis voice was low, and he sounded a little anxious.

Eh? Move the machines? Whats wrong? Zheng Ren asked doubtfully. He had no idea at first, but after hearing fan Tianshuis words, he suddenly remembered that there could be a problem with the machine.

Wait, Ill be there immediately. Zheng Ren asked,are they from the school?

Apparently, they said that they would call the police if they didnt move.

Ill contact chief Lin. You Try to delay. Right, dont hang up yet. Dont hurt anyone, old fan! Zheng Ren hung up the phone in a hurry after he finished speaking.

Zheng Ren sighed as he thought about how torturous it was every day.

There must be a ghost to move the machine at this time! Su Yun said with certainty.

I think so too. Its possible that theres a problem with the juicer. Zheng Ren quickly changed his clothes and organized his thoughts.Whats the PH value of orange juice?

Its usually 3 to 4. The lower the PH value, the more acidic it is. When its freshly pressed, it might be concentrated, causing the ph value to drop further. Su Yun said.

Its possible! I remember there were two cases of copper poisoning. The copper parts of the c.o.ke machine were exposed and were soaked in c.o.ke with a ph of about 2. Zheng Ren said,hurry up. Call a taxi and well rush over immediately.
