My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

The death curse of bed 6 has finally been broken.

And among the patients under his care, two of them with extremely severe conditions showed improvement, which made him feel immensely honored.

"Haha, it seems our team has welcomed a lucky star!"

Director Liu also felt very pleased upon hearing this.

He turned to look at Zhou Can.

"I couldn't have done this alone; it's mainly due to the expert leadership of the senior doctors. Instead of saying I'm a lucky star, it's more accurate to say that I've joined a very outstanding team."

Zhou Can quickly modestly declined.

His high EQ reply brought even broader smiles to the faces of Doctor Hu and Director Liu.

Following Director Liu into the ICU, Zhou Can checked the condition of the patient in bed 6. He noticed the patient's previously deathly pale face had regained a hint of rosiness.

Blood pressure, blood oxygen, heart rate, respiration—all had become stable.

The patient was especially young and had a much better recovery ability than older people.

It's quite normal for the patient's condition to improve rapidly after surgery.

That's also why accident victims of the same severity are more likely to survive and leave the hospital alive if they are young rather than old.

Older people's blood circulation, cellular metabolism, regenerative capabilities, and body recovery speeds are all significantly inferior to those of the young.

The highest mortality rates are also among the elderly.

"Everything we did for the patient in bed 6 yesterday was so meaningful!"

Zhou Can saw a life, once on the brink, blooming into vitality once more, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Besides suctioning phlegm, turning the patient over, and regular medication, bed 6's patient barely needed any more attention.

No wonder Doctor Hu said that today was the most relaxed duty shift in history.

Zhou Can moved over to check the patient in bed 7 and was greeted with equally rewarding and surprising findings.

It seemed the patient in bed 7 already knew that it was Zhou Can who saved him.

Seeing Zhou Can approach the bedside, he nodded vigorously in his direction.

"Don't move, don't move. Once you're better, you can talk to me however you want."

Zhou Can quickly soothed the patient.

For now, the patient still had a tracheal tube inserted and couldn't communicate directly.

"Director Liu, do you think he needs a nutritional injection?"

"Well, that depends on his family's financial situation. However, I believe that a nutritional injection could quickly replenish his weakened body with nutrients, speeding up his recovery. This would allow him to leave the expensive ICU earlier. Overall, it's a very good choice."

Director Liu thought for a moment and spoke seriously.

At present, nutritional injections in China are not advanced or perfect by any means.

But for patients who have been ill for a long time and are extremely weak, providing appropriate nutritional support is indeed a very good choice.

Here it must be mentioned that there's a saying in traditional Chinese medicine: the weak cannot handle vigorous supplements.

Patients who are weakened from prolonged illness should not rely on an excessive dietary supplement but should progress gradually and slowly.

Nutritional injections are generally administered intravenously, mainly supplementing human serum albumin.

I have to say, domestically, nutritional injections are incredibly expensive and the effectiveness is average.

Research in this field is still very much behind, and the market is quite monopolized, which is extremely detrimental to the development and competition of the entire industry.

If nurses in China could hold a status similar to those in developed countries, the nutritional pharmaceuticals field would definitely enter a period of rapid development. Currently, some nurses in China switch careers to become nutritionists.

Compared to other countries, we are only seeing the first signs of this development.

It's still quite immature.

When we can truly provide the general public with high cost-effective nutritional support, that would be perfect.

The life expectancy of Chinese people would definitely increase, and the duration of hospital stays could be greatly reduced.

This is a huge cake that has yet to be tapped.

Unfortunately, it faces many constraints, as well as technical hurdles, so anticipation must be tempered with patience.

"Later, I'll talk with your family to try and help you recover quickly and transfer out of here."

After seeing the earnest look in the patient's eyes, Director Liu spoke comfortingly.

After reviewing the patient in bed 7, the two of them moved to bed 8, whose patient was relatively stable.

"Let's go, we should check on the other beds!"

Director Liu's style of duty was clearly different compared to Doctor Hu.

As the equivalent of the team leader, he needed to check on all the team's patients. If a patient from another team had an emergency, Director Liu would also need to rush over to assist.

The higher the position, the heavier the responsibilities carried on one's shoulders.
