University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 116: Child Needs a Blood Transfusion but the Parents' Affair Is Exposed?


Chen Mu sighed softly.

Then he said, "We initially suspect that this student may have acute pancreatitis."

"The tricky part is that this student's spleen is seriously affected by dampness."

"I suspect his triglycerides are high, and he may need plasma exchange."

"Kidney function is declining..."

At this point.

Chen Mu took a deep breath.

He turned to the patient, "Classmate, how many days has it been since you last had a bowel movement?"

"Four days, isn't it?"

The boy who was still howling looked at Chen Mu in disbelief.

Did this school doctor live in his stomach, observing whether he had a bowel movement?

How could he say it so precisely?

"Can any student of traditional Chinese medicine explain, is pulse diagnosis really accurate enough to tell how many days it's been since having a bowel movement?"

"It depends on the doctor's skill. An adept doctor can not only pinpoint the number of days but also the type of bowel movement you had!"

"Crying, the other day I went to see a traditional Chinese doctor with my boyfriend, and the doctor said I had bowel movements that stuck to the toilet. I used to blame my boyfriend for that shamelessly!"

"Show-off! Blaming your boyfriend and you're still crying?"

"Why is the bullet screen all focused on bowel movements, doesn't anyone notice what Dr. Chen said, acute pancreatitis!"

"It's not just acute pancreatitis, there's also high triglycerides! Kidney function is declining!"

"He should be thankful for the military training, which accelerated the onset; otherwise, if delayed further, developing into pancreatic cancer wouldn't be impossible..."

"..."

"Dr. Chen, should I call 911 now?"

Su Bingbing's hand was already poised on the dial button, ready to go.

Her eyes were bright and sparkling.

Chen Mu looked at Su Bingbing and frowned slightly.

Why did he feel that Su Bingbing seemed a bit off right now?

Yesterday, when they came to the campus medical office and saw a seriously frail college student, Su Bingbing's reaction was still panicked at that time.

Now why did she seem a bit excited?

Does she enjoy seeing students get sick?

Can't be, right?

Chen Mu shook his head, "Wait for a moment, there is a chance he may need surgery, and we need to inform 911 of his blood type as well."

"Wait for that volunteer to call back."

Su Bingbing looked at the patient still howling on bed number four and suddenly remembered a crucial question, "But Dr. Chen, shouldn't the student know their own blood type, why must we ask the counselor?"

Chen Mu sighed, "If they haven't donated blood, many people don't know their blood type."

"And some people, whose parents are both type B, simply tell the doctor they are type B."

Su Bingbing was puzzled, "If the parents are the same blood type, the child would naturally be the same blood type."

"Oh, no, right, there seems to be a certain probability of having a child with type O blood?"

"Is the child type O blood?"

Chen Mu gave her a hard look, "Reporter Su, your statement assumes that neither parent had any extramarital affairs."

"Huh?" Su Bingbing was instantly dumbstruck.

Chen Mu sighed lightly, "Before this year, the school's entry health check did not include blood typing for new students, adding this rule was mainly because of an incident that almost happened last year."

"This is also the main reason why a large number of campus medical staff resigned after last year's military training."

"If they didn't leave, they'd find it very difficult to practice medicine again with the responsibility being divided."

Su Bingbing was shocked, "Such a serious incident happened last year?"

Chen Mu nodded, "Last year a student was overexerted during military training, leading to severe anemia and needed a blood transfusion when he got to the hospital."

"The child contacted their parents, who said they were both type B blood."

"Luckily, although he had severe anemia, it hadn't reached a point where he needed an immediate blood transfusion without time for typing."

"The hospital retested the student's blood, and it turned out he was type A!"

"I can vouch for Dr. Chen's account. A long time ago, you didn't have to test blood before a transfusion, it's because of incidents like this that the rule changed."

"Many critically ill patients feel that hospitals are unreasonable, making them pay EXTRA to test for blood type, not knowing it's for their safety."

"With the official blood type test from the school, if it's critical when transferred to a hospital, you can skip this step because if something goes wrong, the school that provided the type is liable, not the hospital."

"Gosh! I think I need to find time to have my blood type verified, just in case it's needed if something happens."

"You don't have to test it at the hospital, just visit a blood donation site, donate 200 ml, and you'll know your blood type, for free!"

"Noted!"

"..."

Su Bingbing still didn't quite understand.

"But Dr. Chen... according to you, the student's type was found to be A at the hospital."

"The hospital must certainly transfuse him type A blood as well."

"If the right blood type was transfused, there shouldn't be any medical malpractice, so why were the school doctors afraid of taking responsibility, what were they liable for?"

Speaking of this.

Chen Mu was also at a loss for words.

"At that time, I was still consulting at the campus clinic, but based on the accompanying school doctor's account, it went like this..."

"For a non-special emergency where transfusion is needed, the hospital usually requires accompanying family or friends to replace the blood by donating."

"For instance, if your family member needs 200cc of blood, then as a relative or friend, one of you needs to donate 200cc..."

"The blood donated by family, friends is not used for the recipient, but to ensure blood bank levels are adequate."

"Before heading off, the school doctors called the child's parents, explaining they needed them to donate blood."

At this point.

Remembering the expression of the senior who narrated this with near tears.

Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh.

"When the child's parents arrived at the hospital and learned their child was type A, both husband and wife didn't mention the blood donation, and started fighting in the hospital instead!"

"Finally, the accompanying school doctor donated blood, which allowed the child to successfully receive a transfusion."

Su Bingbing was completely baffled.

Just from Chen Mu's description of the donation process, how come it was more melodramatic and exciting than the soap operas she had watched before?

Even though Chen Mu had explained it in detail.

Su Bingbing still couldn't figure it out.

"But even if the student's parents fought in the hospital, what does that have to do with the school doctors?"

"Did the parents disrupt hospital operations, leading the hospital to hold the school doctors accountable?"

Chen Mu chuckled bitterly, "If the hospital held them accountable, the school doctor wouldn't have been so insistent on resigning. The hospital called the police and directly sent the two disruptive parents to the police station."

"The result..."

"None of us could foresee, after the student's parents were released from the police, they directly came to the school clinic to cause trouble."

"The child's adulterous mother said if it weren't for the school sending the student for a blood test at the hospital, it wouldn't have led to them reaching the point of divorce..."
