Chapter 657: The Last Epinephrine
Zheng Ren did not continue to check if there was any bleeding. He directly sutured and closed the abdomen. The operation was over.
This…should be a splenectomy performed under the simplest conditions. Zhao Yunlong looked at the large hole in the patient’s spleen and guessed in his heart that if he had delayed it for a few more hours, the patient would not be able to survive even if a helicopter came over to rescue him.
“Chief Zheng, you’re amazing!” Zhao Yunlong exclaimed.
Zheng Ren wanted to laugh but the muscles on his face were stiff so he did not show any expression at all.
“I’ll go wash the equipment and prepare for the next patient,” Zheng Ren said.
Zhao Yunlong knew that there was no other way.
He had to try his best to stop the bleeding first. As for complications such as post-operative infection, they would only appear after the surgery. Moreover, at least they would still be alive.
After the rainy day pa.s.sed, the helicopter arrived and sent the seriously injured to Huaxi. There were top-notch treatment methods in the country when they arrived.
He nodded and moved the seriously injured to another tent on the other side. He covered the patient with a tattered quilt so that his body heat would not dissipate too quickly. That would aggravate the hemorrhagic shock and cause all organs in the body to fail.
Zheng Ren walked in the rain. He did not prepare any cleaning equipment at all.
The equipment provided by the System to cut open the surgical tray indicated an automatic sterilization function. This was something he had seen when he first performed the laparoscope appendectomy.
However, that was not the point. In such an environment, cutting open the abdomen and cutting off the spleen would definitely cause a very serious infection after the surgery. Perhaps only about 20% of the injured there would survive after surgery?
Zheng Ren did not know nor want to think about it.
He did his best and left the rest to fate.
Without a clean water source, Zheng Ren used the remaining purified water to wash away the invisible ‘blood stains’ on the equipment.
He stood there in a daze for a few minutes. When he heard Zhao Yunlong calling him from behind, Zheng Ren turned around and prepared to continue the operation.
At that moment, a few people who looked like they were in a mess in the distance pulled a person who was flailing all over.
Zheng Ren focused his attention and looked over. Zhao Yunlong had already realized that something was wrong and went to check on the situation.
The person was half-sitting and half-lying on the ground after being forcefully dragged over. Judging from his attire, he was probably a student. He seemed to have gone crazy. He used his hands to grab onto everything as he resisted his cla.s.smates pulling him back.
His ten fingers were badly mutilated, and one could vaguely see the ghastly white bones peeking out from underneath his skin.
However, it was as if he did not know pain. He tried his best to grab onto everything that he could but still had to crawl forward.
“What’s wrong!” Zhao Yunlong roared.
“Chief Zhao…” A person came in front of Zhao Yunlong, but before he could say anything, he started to cry.
He cried very sadly, but he did not beat his chest or stomp his feet. He stood in the wind and rain, letting the rain and tears fall.
“Attention!” Zhao Yunlong shouted hoa.r.s.ely, “Report the situation!”
“Reporting!” The student could not find the instructor or the leader of his team, so he reported the situation to Zhao Yunlong.
It turned out that they had been on a rescue mission when they heard the voice of a survivor under a ruin.
It was a hospital. There used to be three floors but they had now collapsed. The third floor became the second floor, the second floor became the first floor…and the first floor became the bas.e.m.e.nt.
It was impossible to dig people out of the ruins with only two hands.
Even if they risked the aftershock… Even if they risked houses collapsing on them at any time… Even if they worked hard and risked everything, it was futile in the end.
In order to comfort the trapped survivor, the students left one person to talk to her, while the others continued to look for survivors who could be rescued.
The survivor was injured and her voice was faint. The students chatted with her for a long time, trying to find all kinds of topics to talk about so that the flame of life would not be extinguished until the heavy equipment arrived.
However, everyone was very tired.
The more they talked, the quieter their voices became. The student fell asleep unknowingly. After ten minutes or so, he woke up in shock. When he spoke again, the girl who had survived could no longer make any sound
That sort of thing happened countless times. No matter how hard they tried, no matter how guilty they felt, there was always a limit to what they could do.
Zheng Ren was stupefied. He did not look at Zhao Yunlong to comfort the student. Whether it was gentle words of comfort or a series of beating and scolding to make him quiet, none of that had anything to do with Zheng Ren.
Here, everyone used their utmost strength to rescue and save every life that could be saved.
Zheng Ren got a few students to carry another person over and began to operate on the next patient.
This patient was suffering from hepatic rupture. The System only gave a diagnosis of multiple fractures, hepatic rupture, hepatic rupture, and hemorrhagic shock.
Zheng Ren guessed that for the survivors who were able to survive until now, the ruptured wounds were not very big.
Therefore, being able to get surgical treatment was valuable.
Moreover, the current situation could not be measured by value. He was just trying his best.
“Boss, are you done with one?” Su Yun came in from somewhere. He did not look energetic at all. Instead, he looked more and more exhausted.
However, his eyes shone like two stars.
“Yes. After I finish one splenic rupture, I’ll a.s.sess their condition further. The initial consideration is a hepatic rupture,” Zheng Ren said as he tore off the patient’s clothes, exposing the operating area.
“Say something. If you don’t say anything, I think I will go crazy,” Su Yun nagged as he helped Zheng Ren prepare for the operation.
“How long do you think it’ll take for the rescue team to arrive?” Zheng Ren held the injector in his hand and skillfully administered the local anesthesia.
“The helicopter rescue will probably arrive soon,” Su Yun said. “The aviation team is a bunch of G.o.dd.a.m.n lunatics. In this kind of weather, they still want to try and fly over.”
Zheng Ren was not surprised.
Along the way, wasn’t he also forced into a corner? Su Yun had almost fallen into the lake and Zhao Yunlong had almost been hit by falling rocks. The team had to pay the price to even barely make it there.
The blood in their bones had been forced out. The people from the aviation regiment would probably have to land based on their own experience and instincts.
They were all risking their lives.
“When the rescue helicopter lands, there will be a large number of supplies. Use them however you want,” Su Yun said.
“Epinephrine, push it in slowly,” Zheng Ren said indifferently.
The survivor’s blood pressure was extremely low. Zheng Ren saw in the System’s interface that the red background was slowly turning white and he began to cut open the abdominal wall.
Su Yun was stunned for a moment, then he began to look for epinephrine.
“Zhao Yunlong, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, where did you put the epinephrine?” Su Yun could not find it, so he shouted at the top of his voice.
His voice penetrated the rain curtain, and Zhao Yunlong’s tall and st.u.r.dy body appeared like a mountain.
“The last one is on me.” Zhao Yunlong took out a plastic bottle of medicine from his clothes and handed it to Su Yun. “This is the last one.”
“It’s okay, Lu Hang will be here soon. When the time comes, you can use one, but no one will care at that point whether or not you use it or throw it even,” Su Yun nagged. He opened the epinephrine bottle and used the injector to suck it up. There was not a drop left as he injected it into the survivor’s vein.
All the blood vessels were shriveled, but Su Yun could still find the right spot.
It might be difficult for others, but for him, it was as natural as breathing.
Zheng Ren was also used to it. He did not look at Su Yun at all. After opening the abdomen, he reached in. Black blood came out and mixed with the rain on the ground before being washed away.
