Surgeons (外科风云)

Send to the OR.

Ready.

- Hemostat. - Hemostat.

5-0 prolene sutures.

Gauze.

Dr. Zhang, I'll take your place.

Can you do it?

Don't force yourself.

I can do it. Let me.

Only by being here will my mind be at ease.

Let's continue.

How long has it been?

38 minutes.

Will they make it?

I don't know.

What is that treatment plan Dr. Zhuang mentioned on the phone?

We've all used methods to lower body temperature

but feeding chilled saline intravenously

violates many principles of emergency treatment.

I've only read about it in journals.

Get to the point.

With regards to a patient suffering from hemorrhagic shock

injecting chilled saline directly through a central line

is for the purpose of

rapidly cooling every major organ, slowing metabolism

and decreasing oxygen demand

thus reducing risks of damage to major organs

due to blood loss and decreased blood pressure.

I get the general concept now.

I feel cold just hearing about it.

Miss.

- Is Lu Chen Xi here? - Dr. Lu? She isn't here.

Are you her patient? Emergency or Thoracic?

I am her father.

Uncle!

Uncle, you... you're here.

- Chen Xi... - Chen Xi is in surgery.

Dr. Chen, the blood is here.

Yang Yu, stay with Uncle. I'll get the blood.

This is three units. The rest will be here soon.

Someone will come sign for it later!

Move! Move aside!

Out of the way!

Move, move!

It's been 44 minutes.

Continue.

Come, cut.

The blood is here! The blood is here!

It's 45 minutes now.

Cut the thread.

Lu Chen Xi.

Cut.

It's here! O-negative blood is here! Three units.

- It's 46 minutes now. - Hold steady.

Transfuse blood. Prepare to raise temperature.

Okay.

Uncle, have some water.

I was such a fool.

How could I let her come to the hospital by herself?

So what if they didn't eat the mochi?

So what if they weren't fresh anymore? What was the rush?

Did they have to be rushed to the hospital?

Uncle, you mustn't think like that. This was an accident.

Don't worry.

When Auntie comes out of surgery, you still have to look after her.

Zhang Mo Han, take over for Dr. Lu.

Basin.

Needle and thread.

Forceps.

Go rest.

I will call you when surgery is over.

- I'm not leaving. - Go rest.

There is a lot for you to do later.

There will be a later, right?

Chen Xi.

There will be a later.

I can finally go home andget a good night's sleep.

Yes, I haven't even had time to swallow my own saliva.

Isn't that Dr. Lu?

Dr. Lu.

Her mother's been injured and is in surgery. Don't bother her.

Rinse the chest cavity.

Warm saline.

Dr. Lu, Chen Shao Cong told me to tell you this.

Your father is here. Do you want to go see him?

I got it.

Thank you. Go back to work.

With this anesthesia dosage, the patient was supposed to wake after half an hour.

It's been an hour already.

Prepare to transfer to a bed and send to ICU.

Dad, hold on to Mom's necklace.

She'll definitely ask you for it when she comes out.

Keep it.

Your mom said you liked it.

She was going to give it to you.

I've never seen this method before.

Have you done it before?

No.

Bro Zhuang.

You sure are brave.

I'm not.

I had no choice.

I heard those in Anesthesiology say

Auntie still hasn't woken up yet.

At the moment...

we still don't have precise numbers that tell us

how long a patient can withstand

the lack of blood and oxygen while under a hypothermic state

before organs are irreversibly damaged.

You... You're not saying...

you don't know if Auntie will wake up, do you?

Slowly, slowly.

Be careful, be careful.

Old Cheng? Old Cheng?

- Old Cheng. - She's resumed breathing on her own.

The surgery was successful.

It's just that Auntie... still hasn't waken up yet.

- The time to wake from anesthesia is-- - I know.

You don't have to explain that to me.

Send her to the ICU.

Let's go.

Dad, go with Mom first.

The surgery is over.

I saw.

The results are good.

Let's go.

I have to explain to your father the current situation and possible outcomes.

No need to.

I participated in emergency treatment and the operation.

I understand clearly what the outcomes could be.

I'm sorry.

Auntie still hasn't waken up from the anesthesia.

- She might not-- - No need to apologize.

There's nothing to be sorry for.

I want to say

I am unable to guarantee that she will wake up.

Of course you can't. Nobody can guarantee that.

You don't have to explain any of that.

I know you did your best.

I did my best.

My best again.

It was Lin Hao, and now it's your mother.

- I didn't know if it could save her. - I was in charge of first aid.

I agreed to the surgical plan as the family.

No matter what the outcome is, I can accept it.

And if the hospital or higher-ups look into this risky treatment

- do not say it was-- - No such thing.

I was the one who proposed this surgical plan.

You may have participated in first aid and part of the surgery

but in regards to this patient, you are only the family.

Dr. Lu, Uncle, Auntie's vitals are normal. Don't worry.

Yes, okay.

- Thank you. - I'll be going now.

Dad, I have something to do.

Stay here. Don't move and don't leave.

Okay, I know. I'll be here watching her.

Give me my mom's records. I have something to write in.

Okay.

- Have a seat. - Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're not resting yet?

I can't sleep.

What are you writing?

My mom's operative report.

I have to finish her admission notes before work tomorrow.

You're writing the operative report?

What do you mean by this?

I am the attending physician in charge of this case.

I made all the decisions. From now on, I can take full responsibility.

You are falsifying records.

Dr. Lu, are you thinking of bearing responsibility for me?

It's what I should do.

What are you doing?

I can bear the responsibility of the decisions I make

whether they are right or wrong.

I don't need someone else, especially not you

to take my place by fraudulent means.

What I hate the most is others falsifying medical records.

Right is right. Wrong is wrong.

Right, wrong, success, and failure can be debated

but the truth must not be obscured.

As your mother's attending physician

I will be making all decisions for future medical treatment.

I will bear all the responsibility.

As the family, please cooperate.

You only helped because I asked you to.

I can handle everything now.

I don't need you.

You don't need me?

Having been a doctor for so many years
