Since 1981 Health School
Chapter 613 Unexpected death of American millionaire
Guangnan Province, Qianzhen City, Ziguang Hospital.
As the first batch of open cities in China, Shenzhen is a special economic zone. Even if it is only 1989, the economy has already been highly prosperous.
A large number of foreign and Hong Kong businessmen have poured into Shenzhen, which has promoted the rapid development of this window city with major changes every year.
As the best hospital in Shenzhen, Ziguang Hospital also undertakes the treatment of a large number of foreign businessmen and foreign guests. All the equipment in this hospital are the most advanced, and the doctors' skills are also the best in the country.
Let’s put it this way, the level of doctors in this hospital is not necessarily the top in the country, but the hospital’s hardware is second, and no one dares to say it is the first. The country is really selling everything to support Qianzhen City.
The enthusiastic Huaguo always wants to dedicate his best things, such as how the enthusiastic Shandong University of later generations entertained black students...
Today, a foreign patient was admitted to the emergency department of Ziguang Hospital, followed by a large group of men and women in suits and leather shoes, everyone looked nervous.
The old white man lying on the emergency bed is called Chapman Webster. He is the chairman of Dakai Toy Company in the United States and a well-known rich man in the United States.
He led a business delegation to Qianzhen this time to discuss the expansion of production lines.
As one of the first wholly foreign-owned enterprises in Shenzhen, Dakai Toys has become one of the top ten export-earning enterprises in Shenzhen, so the relevant departments of Shenzhen attach great importance to it.
Not only did they accompany them all the way, but they also had constant banquets every day. They wanted to shorten the distance between each other in this way and keep their dollars.
After a few days of business reception, there was a lot of fish and meat every day, and the business was not successful, but the chairman of the company, Chapman Webster, was eaten into the hospital.
My stomach hurts, and I feel restless because of the pain. Everyone thought it was because of alcohol, so they rushed to the hospital.
When the white old man was sent to Ziguang Hospital, the whole hospital was mobilized, and all relevant medical and surgical experts participated in the consultation.
Bian Hefeng is the director of Ziguang Hospital, and he quickly ran from the office to the emergency department when he received the call.
When the leaders of the relevant departments saw the dean coming, they quickly pulled aside and said:
"Dean Bian, this foreign businessman is very special. If it is done well, it will be an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. If it is not done well, it will be patted and left. We were responsible for the reception work before, and we did our best."
Bian Hefeng thought to himself: eat and drink as much as possible, and drink everyone to the hospital, what kind of devotion is this?
Of course he wouldn't say that out loud, he just nodded seriously to show that he was listening.
"Mr. Chapman Webster is suffering from a sudden illness, which requires you professional doctors to be responsible, so you must do everything possible to treat this foreign businessman at all costs, and ensure that the foreign businessman is satisfied, understand? "
Bian Hefeng continued to nod repeatedly: "Leader, please don't worry, we will ensure medical security well and not hold back our city of Shenzhen!"
But I frowned in my heart, now I don't know what's going on, I have to take care of it, who can guarantee medicine?
Dean Bian turned to look at the busy doctors and asked:
"What's the situation with foreign businessmen now?"
Li Huacheng, director of the emergency department, hurriedly replied:
"The patient was admitted to the hospital because of abdominal pain for 3 hours. The physical examination found that the patient had tenderness in the upper abdomen and right abdomen. In addition, the patient had a history of cholecystitis, so we have reason to suspect that this is an acute cholecystitis attack."
Cholecystitis?
Hearing this diagnosis, both the doctor and the staff of Dakai Toys Company breathed a sigh of relief, and the faces of the leaders were not so ugly.
Although Chapman Webster was also in severe pain, he felt relieved when he heard that it was just a cholecystitis attack, thinking that he would not die.
Dean Bian also straightened his back, and commanded:
"Since there is a suspect, go to the relevant inspections immediately, so that you can take medicine earlier."
"Good dean!"
In the emergency department, there is a set of rapid emergency tests, such as electrocardiogram, liver and kidney function, blood and urine amylase, and B-ultrasound.
A small cholecystitis, that's not easy to get.
Then the results of the examination surprised everyone secretly, because the B-ultrasound showed that although there were stones in the gallbladder, the gallbladder itself was not enlarged, and indicators such as bilirubin were also normal.
That is to rule out the possibility of cholecystitis.
What caused the abdominal pain?
At this time, there was no national guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal pain, and the concept of epileptic abdominal pain and myocardial infarction abdominal pain that Chen Qi and the others had just experienced had not spread.
Now that he has encountered an intractable disease, the doctor plans to further expand the examination.
So enhanced CT, complete set of biochemical tests, tumor indicators, gastrointestinal endoscopy, etc., all the tests that can be imagined are included, not the best, but the most expensive.
If it weren't for the lack of PET/CT, genetic testing, MRI, etc. in this era, otherwise all of them would be available.
Not only inspections make money, but the profits of medicines in the 1980s and 1990s were also considerable, so all imported medicines that are good and expensive are listed.
What antispasmodic painkillers, imported antibiotics, electrolyte solutions, etc., can be hung up.
No way, Tsinghua Unigroup Hospital has a beautiful building and advanced equipment, but there are so many machines to maintain, so many staff to support, so many bank loans to repay, and the hospital is poor.
Americans are not stupid.
But firstly, people don’t care about money, and secondly, no matter how much your hospital pays for medical expenses, it’s only a few pennies for Americans?
Money can be spent, but you have to help me cure the problem.
It turned out to be here by accident.
After being admitted to the hospital, in the evening, Ziguang Hospital prepared to perform a gastroenteroscopy examination on the patient.
The gastroscopy was done first, and Zuo Yongxin, director of the gastroenterology department, performed the surgery himself.
Zuo Yongxin is one of the first batch of doctors in China to study gastrointestinal endoscopy. He once studied in the United States for a year. After returning to China, he first went to the Affiliated Hospital of Peking University. Later, he resolutely came to Shenzhen in order to pursue higher salary.
His clinical experience is still very rich. In his eyes, a small gastroscope is as simple as killing a chicken.
If it weren't for the fact that he was a foreigner and a rich man in the United States, it would be impossible for him to make a move.
When the confident Director Zuo held the mirror in one hand and the joystick in the other, and started to lower the tube, everything was normal.
Just after the gastroscope passed the pharynx, the old white man began to vomit.
Zuo Yongxin quickly persuaded in English: "Sir, please hold on, take a deep breath, yes, relax."
The old white man felt uncomfortable all over his body, with cold sweat on his back, and the pain in his abdomen had spread to his chest, but now he couldn't speak at all with a gastroscope in his mouth.
His face was getting paler and he was sweating profusely.
Seeing the patient like this, Zuo Yongxin hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, nausea and vomiting are also common phenomena when the patient undergoes a gastroscopy. In addition, the vagus nerve is excited, and the profuse sweating and pale face also make sense.
At this time, if another little doctor was changed, the gastroscopy would definitely be stopped, but Zuo Yongxinyi was bold and decided to continue the tube.
This missed the best rescue window.
The inspection continued, and the internal structure of the stomach could already be seen on the display screen of the gastroscope, and the inspection was halfway through.
At the same time, the patient's vomiting reaction not only did not decrease, but became more severe.
Chapman Webster's female secretary was full of melancholy and asked anxiously:
"Doctor, is there something wrong with my boss? You can see that he can't stop vomiting."
Zuo Yongxin gritted his teeth and replied:
"Let your boss persist. I have checked the duodenal bulb and gastric antrum. Now I am going to flip the gastric camera to see the condition of the gastric fundus. Give me another 3 minutes."
The female secretary had nothing to do, so she could only helplessly beg: "Doctor, please hurry up and have a checkup."
Then, while wiping the vomit for the boss, endured the nausea and continued to comfort:
"Mr. Chapman Webster, please relax and don't be nervous. This is just a small gastroscope. I did it at the beginning. It's not a big deal."
Chapman Webster waved his left hand irritably, which actually signaled the gastroscope to stop immediately. He was already in unbearable pain.
But neither Doctor Zuo nor the female secretary received this signal, thinking that the patient was too uncomfortable to undergo gastroscopy and was struggling at will.
Zuo Yongxin's face was also ashen at this time, but now the inspection is almost the last step, and it is obviously impossible for him to give up the inspection.
If the cause of the abdominal pain cannot be found out, he will be spanked as the attending doctor, so he wants to take a full stomach scan in one go, as long as the patient feels uncomfortable, it is not his doctor who is suffering.
So Zuo Yongxin slowly turned the stomach camera over, ready to explore the bottom of the stomach.
At this time, the old white man who was still vomiting on the hospital bed suddenly yelled, stretched out one hand, and firmly grasped Zuo Yongxin's surgical gown with the other, and his whole body began to twitch.
His face was also pale just now, but now it has turned purple-black.
The loud bang bang instantly confused everyone in the operating room. Both the doctor and the nurse had a bad premonition that they might have a big crash today.
"Hold him quickly, don't get out of bed!"
Zuo Yongxin hurriedly called the assistants and nurses beside him for help, but the Caucasian female secretary covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes were like copper bells, obviously terrified.
Just when everyone was about to hold down the patient tightly, the old white man who was still convulsing violently just now softened all of a sudden, remained motionless, and lost consciousness.
"Not good! The patient's heartbeat and breathing stopped."
Zuo Yongxin is a famous doctor after all, when others are still baffled, he can tell at a glance that something is wrong with the patient.
So I immediately pulled out the gastroscope as quickly as possible, regardless of whether the patient's throat would be damaged.
"Hurry up to rescue, inhale oxygen, open the venous channel, and perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The adrenaline needle is coming quickly, and the electrodes are ready for defibrillation. Who, don't be stupid, go to the emergency broadcast immediately, and shake people."
Every department in a top hospital has a horn that will be called in case of emergency:
"Dudu, please pay attention to all departments, please pay attention to all departments, the endoscopy room needs emergency support, the endoscopy room needs persistent support, there is a patient with cardiac arrest who needs emergency treatment, red level."
The red level belongs to the most serious medical level. Competing with King Yama often requires multidisciplinary treatment.
After hearing the broadcast, countless white coats ran to the endoscopy room as quickly as possible as long as they had nothing to do.
That night, the Ziguang Hospital was brightly lit, and there were cars with various license plates coming in and out, even some with black license plates.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, after 3 hours of rescue, Chapman Webster, the rich man in the United States and the chairman of Dakai Toy Company, was finally not rescued and declared dead.
This time, things went awry.
A day later, the family members rushed to Shenzhen City. Instead of one or two people, they packed a Boeing 747 and hundreds of people came.
Among these hundreds of people are not only family members, senior executives of Dakai Toy Company, but also a large group of media reporters. Obviously, there must be reporters with malicious intentions among them, and they can take this opportunity to discredit a certain country.
This super rich man with tens of billions of dollars in assets is enough to make ordinary people full. What's more, this rich man has been married three times, and he has nine legal children after marriage. There is no official statistics for illegitimate children.
Three bedrooms, two bedrooms and three bedrooms, who doesn't want to grab more inheritance?
At this critical juncture, whoever behaves the most actively may become the final winner.
So how do you show your deepest affection for Chapman Webster? What is the most painful?
The best way is of course to hold the medical staff accountable. Anyway, you are the doctor who killed the person. For my husband (ex-husband) and for the father of the child, we must seek justice!
Moreover, it is the kind of non-stop until the goal is achieved. Some family members are already preparing to sue in the courts of the two countries.
Those unscrupulous media in the United States are collectively excited now, because this not only involves the property-grabbing links that the common people love to see, but also involves the already tense relationship between the two countries, from which they can sow discord.
Therefore, the "medical accident" that happened in Shenzhen suddenly attracted the attention of entertainment gossip and financial circles all over the world.
It can be described as a major negative news for the business environment of a certain country.
According to the old practice, for the first time, the hospital and doctors should be held accountable internally.
Bian Hefeng, director of the Shenzhen Ziguang Hospital, Li Huacheng, director of the emergency department, and Zuo Yongxin, director of the gastroenterology department, were suspended from their posts and punished further.
The family members of the deceased did not satisfy the disciplinary action received by the hospital leaders, but made two demands.
One is to pursue the criminal responsibility of the attending doctor and send the doctor to jail. They insist that this is a medical malpractice.
Second, compensate the family members with 100 million U.S. dollars.
Of course, the family also made it clear that they would donate the US$100 million in compensation to charitable organizations after they got it, which occupied the "moral high ground".
(In fact, this charitable fund is the Webster Family Fund. Donating to this foundation is the same as giving money to the Webster family, and you don’t have to pay taxes. Americans are good at calculating.)
If Ziguang Hospital or Huafang do not meet the two conditions for family members, Dakai Toys Factory is going to shut down its factory in Shenzhen, and all related supporting factories will be transferred to other countries.
In addition, he will sue the deceased Chapman Webster in the court of the United States for the unfair treatment he suffered in Shenzhen, so that the whole world will know how backward the medical level of this country is, how dark the handling of the incident is, and the family members How wronged.
To put it bluntly, it is no different from the international doctors, only a banner is missing. (end of this chapter)
