Director Liu was startled by Tao Le's sudden action. Just as he was about to accuse him, he heard David speak.
"Teacher Tao, is your magic needle also effective in treating severe heart failure?" He said in halting Chinese.
Director Liu and Doctor Hua were both stunned for a moment.
In the past two days, they have been together and have a good understanding of this American expert.
He is indeed worthy of the name of an anti-infection expert. He has rich clinical experience and can calmly solve many complex situations, winning the respect of the entire ICU medical staff.
But in contrast, it is also his almost harsh work style.
It's just that he speaks the truth, cannot listen to any rebuttal, and has extremely high requirements for execution. The most disturbing thing is that he speaks fast and fast E-slang from the beginning to the end.
Luckily for Director Liu and Dr. Hua, they were originally doctors from famous hospitals in Beijing who were assisting Tibet, and their E language was quite passable. But the local residents and nurses are different. They don’t understand many professional terms and they need to translate them separately.
No one thought much about this. When foreign experts come to help save people, we must overcome all difficulties to cooperate. We can't blame them for the language problem, right?
As for the Bluetooth headsets for translation that are distributed in the hospital, they are mainly used by doctors who do not speak Tibetan. They are basically not used in the ICU, and the packaging is not even opened.
When patients enter the ICU, they are either unconscious or sedated. They basically have no chance to speak, and the need for communication is much less than in other departments.
Moreover, once they get busy, no one will think of this matter at all, let alone link it to E-language translation.
So at this moment, David's Chinese words became particularly harsh in everyone's ears.
It turns out that you can also speak Chinese! So why did you have the nerve to listen to us acting as messengers over and over for such a long time, translating and conveying the implementation of various requirements?
Director Liu and Doctor Hua looked extremely complicated, but they didn't pay much attention to the content of David's words.
Tao Le, on the other hand, quickly pricked a few more acupuncture points and used golden fingers to treat heart failure, and then answered:
"The symptoms of heart failure can be relieved through acupuncture." She said as she handed the small medicine box to David: "What patients need most now is this medicine."
"Is this the new drug from the laboratory you were talking about?" David took the box, weighed it, opened it, and took out a small, cold metal box.
"Yes." Tao Le nodded and said, "The family has agreed and requires immediate medication."
While David was still hesitating, Director Liu spoke first: "No, I don't agree."
Tao Le glanced at Wen Hao. Anti-heart failure treatment increased his health by 9 points, raising his total health to 17 points, still in critical condition.
Because time was tight, Tao Le didn't care about anything else and went straight to the point:
"This new drug is a product of Mio Technology Medical Laboratory. Although it has not yet entered clinical trials, that is mainly a matter of approval, not the drug itself."
"Xiao Tao, you don't need to say anything." Director Liu waved his hand and said: "We cannot use unsafe drugs. I also stated this attitude yesterday."
"Director Liu, I know what you are worried about." Tao Le's voice became rare and serious: "You know very well that if this continues, the patient will undoubtedly die, but if this new drug still has no effect after using it, it may cause the hospital to Taking on unnecessary responsibilities.”
What she said was exactly what Director Liu thought. The reason why he agreed to David using phage before was partly because the other party was a foreign expert hired by the patient himself, and partly because they had heard of the phage itself.
The foreign experts themselves contacted and used relatively mature drugs from Hawke's experiments with the consent of the family members. Even if it failed, the hospital could not be blamed.
But Tao Le is different. The doctors in our hospital use new drugs that no one has heard of. If there is any problem, the hospital will definitely be held fully responsible, even with the patient's informed consent.
David looked at Dave, who had just changed into sterile clothes, looked at Tao Le again, and asked:
"Teacher Tao, do you have confidence in this medicine?"
When he asked this question, Director Liu, Doctor Hua and the medical staff nearby discovered something was wrong.
Did this famous anti-infectious expert from country A know Tao Le before? And why do you call her teacher?
He had not been this polite to the doctors in the ICU before.
Even the most senior Director Liu is only referred to as "Liu", while the other medical staff don't even get a title.
Tao Le nodded without hesitation: "I have confidence."
She turned to Director Liu and said solemnly: "If something goes wrong, I am willing to take full responsibility and will not drag down the hospital."
"I am also confident." Dave followed up: "I am responsible for this together with her."
"Hey, Dr. Dave." Director Liu was very surprised: "Why are you messing around with Xiao Tao?"
"Nonsense?" Dave shook his head and said seriously: "Dr. Tao is my teacher, and I respect her very much. I trust her unconditionally, and I hope you can correct your attitude and take her suggestions seriously."
David took over at this moment: "Since Teacher Tao insists and the family members agree, I think it's totally okay to give it a try. Isn't there an old saying in your Chinese country, "You call a dead horse a living horse doctor?"
What Dave and David said was completely beyond Director Liu's expectations. He didn't react for a while, and suddenly he got stuck.
He looked at Tao Le's young and mediocre face, and then at the two experts Dave and David standing beside him, and suddenly felt a little dazed.
Is it because he is old or is he too exhausted from treating patients these days? Why can't he understand what is happening in front of him?
David just called Tao Le his teacher, it was probably a polite word. But Dave was different. He made it clear in public that he was taught by Tao Le.
But here comes the problem. Isn't Tao Le a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine? Why is he so valued and supported by two foreign experts, who even consider themselves their disciples?
Because Doctor Hua had learned acupuncture to control pulses and stop bleeding before, he had long been accustomed to the identity of Master Tao Leyan, and his ability to adapt to the current scene was much stronger.
"Director Liu. Since Teacher Tao and the two experts have said so, let's use this new drug." He advised: "This patient is still very young. With the new drug, there may be hope of saving him."
Director Liu sighed.
This patient is so young. If you can get through this, you will not only have a bright future, but you will also be able to benefit more Tibetan compatriots with your extraordinary vision and broadmindedness.
According to his true intentions, he is willing to try any reliable medicine that may save the patient's life.
The person who wants to save the patient the most is actually the doctor who rescued him.
I didn't close my eyes all day and night, and the reason for persisting was nothing more than the warmth in my heart.
He didn't want to walk out of the ICU after fighting hard for so long and bow and apologize to his family members who were standing outside.
Thinking of this, he looked around at the people waiting for him to speak, took a deep breath, and made a decision.
"Have the family members signed the informed consent form?" he asked slowly.
"Signed, signed!" the resident doctor who was previously responsible for signing said loudly, holding the materials high.
"Take medicine." Director Liu waved his hand: "This is the decision of Liu Qianjin. I definitely can't let you, a little girl, take any responsibility."
