When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 341: Chapter 342: Love Rival, ??

One after another, several patients refused oxygen therapy, leaving even Zhang Shu and Chen Cang perplexed.

Tian Cong was also quite curious, and couldn’t help but ask, “Doctor, can oxygen actually be toxic?”

Zhang Shu glanced at Tian Cong and said, “Oxygen is indispensable, as it’s present in the air, but the concentration of oxygen is very important. When the partial pressure of oxygen exceeds half an atmosphere, it starts to become toxic to cells. Under one atmosphere, humans can survive for up to 24 hours maximum, and in an environment of three atmospheres of oxygen, humans can die within minutes.”

At this point, all the patients were baffled!

Oxygen therapy can be like this?

They thought more oxygen was always better!

It seems that this is not the case.

Looks like in the future, we’ll have to pinch our noses when we go out… in case of oxygen poisoning…

Seeing their reaction, Zhang Shu continued, “Of course, the oxygen therapy being administered to you all is continuous low-flow, which is beneficial for your ailments! So don’t mess with the settings, otherwise, no one can help you if problems arise!”

To be honest, Tian Cong was truly taken aback by Zhang Shu’s explanation!

Oxygen can indeed be toxic.

“Doctor… What’s the condition with my mother, is it serious?” Tian Cong asked cautiously.

Zhang Shu shook her head, “It’s not too serious. Your mother has cerebral oxygen toxicity, which primarily manifests as seizures and convulsions. However, fortunately, your mother is currently showing prodromal symptoms, which are not severe. It’s a good thing that it was discovered early, as it would have been troublesome if it had reached the later stages, like the convulsive or coma phases.”

Hearing this made Tian Cong shiver with fright!

That was a close call.

So grateful they found it early!

With this in mind, Tian Cong hurriedly bowed at 90 degrees again to express his gratitude, “I’m really so thankful to you, Director Zhang! I truly appreciate it.”

Zhang Shu shook her head and said, “If you want to thank someone, thank Dr. Chen. Without him, your mother’s condition might have been delayed by several minutes.”

Zhang Shu could have also made the diagnosis, but perhaps not as quickly!

After all, Chen Cang’s speed was renowned: quick to diagnose, quick to suture, quick in surgery.

But to identify the patient’s primary symptoms and pinpoint the cause of the ailment in such a short time is indeed a frighteningly impressive feat.

It’s a strong grasp of professional expertise.

“Timely detection of prodromal symptoms and immediate withdrawal from a high-pressure oxygen environment is crucial for preventing the onset of oxygen seizures. So, Dr. Zhang truly helped a lot.”

Tian Cong nodded eagerly and thanked Chen Cang profusely!

The patient’s condition was quickly brought under control.

Although some time was needed to reverse the toxic environment, since it was only a prodromal manifestation, it was not particularly serious and could be corrected promptly.

The patient’s condition stabilized, but Tian Cong’s mother was also taken to the observation room for monitoring.

Her departure stirred sentiments among the elderly men and women in the ward.

“Ah… I can’t keep up with the times anymore!”

“Yes, even oxygen can be toxic, we’re falling behind…”

“When you’re old, you have to accept it, just listen to the young ones and try not to trouble them, that’s enough.”

“Exactly, nowadays the kids are even more exhausted than we were. Being well is better than anything!”

No one blamed, belittled, or discriminated against Tian Cong’s mother, thinking she was stingy and just wanted more oxygen.

This was all understandable; raising three children to adulthood and establishing them in homes, how difficult must that have been?

She had to save every penny!

Sometimes, people staying together in a hospital become friends over time and may continue to visit each other even after being discharged.

Besides, if Tian Cong’s mother didn’t understand, did they?

They did not!

Had it not been for her situation, would they have acted the same?

In this vast world, nothing is too strange!

As soon as Chen Cang stepped out of the ward, he heard Zhang Shu looking at him with a curious expression.

Chen Cang was taken aback, “Dr. Zhang… Do I look bad?”

Zhang Shu was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter, “Little Chen, I’ve found you’re really well-suited to being a doctor. You have a sharp ability to observe and a logical thinking capacity to judge, always managing to grasp the critical points of your patients, and then set off to find the cause of their illnesses!”

“Don’t be so modest, it’s the truth! Very impressive.”

Having said that, Zhang Shu stood up and left.

At ten in the afternoon, Chen Cang was at work as usual, planning to visit the First Hospital of Dong University after his shift to flaunt his skills and complete an impressive task.

Throughout the afternoon, Chen Cang wasn’t very busy, nor was Qin Yue. The two of them worked together to organize and analyze the surgical data for appendectomies with small incisions.

Chen Cang was now preparing to write a paper.

It must be said that Qin Yue’s data analysis was very comprehensive and detailed, with good choices made for every aspect of the analysis.

Just this data analysis alone already made the article reach a core standard!

However, a core standard no longer satisfied Mr. Chen, after all, he was the man who aimed to take down an impact factor of a total score of 15.

Suddenly, Chen Cang felt that with Qin Yue the data enthusiast around, he didn’t need to be distracted learning statistics anymore.

Just then, the young nurse walked in with a smile and said, “Doctor Qin, that person is back again to change his dressing!”

Qin Yue couldn’t help but frown, “Tell him to wait for me in the treatment room; I’ll be there shortly.”

Chen Cang was instantly curious, “Who is it?”

The young nurse burst into laughter, “Doctor Little Chen, don’t you know? He’s been here several times already!”

Chen Cang was immediately taken aback, “What do you mean?”

Qin Yue’s face changed instantly, “Don’t talk nonsense!”

The young nurse stuck out her tongue.

After Qin Yue left, the young nurse continued to speak, “Doctor Little Chen, you’ve got to step up your game!”

“That person who comes to have his dressing changed by Doctor Qin is quite young and handsome, fair and clean, except for a wound on his face. He often comes under the pretense of changing his dressing to see Qin Yue, bringing a pair of fruit for the nurses’ station and the doctors every time.”

Chen Cang was taken aback; he really wasn’t aware!

So, there was such an incident.

But…

The young nurse went on to say, “That guy must be young, but he seems to be very rich, showing up in two different sports cars on two occasions! He must be a rich second-generation type!”

“Doctor Little Chen, you’ve got to put in the effort, don’t let our department’s belle be stolen away!”

Chen Cang instantly became vigilant!

He suddenly felt a tightness in his heart.

A rival?

No!

Why would I think that?

I’m not interested in Qin Yue… am I?

Chen Cang started to doubt himself.

After much thought, Chen Cang couldn’t suppress his curiosity and decided to get up and go see for himself.

He had just stepped out when he saw a familiar face!

What the heck?

Isn’t that the patient I sutured back then?

ps: Wow, getting up at seven without having breakfast, and typing until now, I’ve finally finished.

I’m relieved!
