Back to 1999: From operating surgeon to becoming a top doctor

Xiao Chenguang walked out of the emergency room, and the medical staff outside were busy.

The emergency bed was full of seriously injured patients, who were receiving emergency hemostatic bandages.

The emergency hall was still wailing.

Some people were still in shock, huddled in the corner, shivering like they had post-traumatic stress syndrome.

Some people had dull eyes and wooden expressions, leaning against the wall motionless, as if they were trapped in a terrifying memory and had lost their souls all of a sudden.

Some people were covered in blood, covering their heads and crying bitterly.

At this moment, there was still a steady stream of wounded people pouring into the emergency department.

The purgatory-like human tragedy made all the medical staff present breathless.

"If this continues, the operation of the hospital's emergency department may be paralyzed."

"We must find a way."

The scene in front of him made Xiao Chenguang frown.

So far, more than 20 wounded people have been treated, but this is just the beginning.

It is understood that there were two long-distance buses involved in the accident, which overturned after hitting the guardrail after rear-ending.

Some of them broke the glass and were thrown out of the window due to huge inertia.

Some were pierced into the guardrail of the carriage and cut in half, and died on the spot.

Most of the remaining people were in serious condition and were being sent here continuously.

This made the medical staff who were treating the injured panic.

Originally, they thought that after this period of time, all the patients would be settled properly and everything would be fine.

Unexpectedly, the scene in front of them was just the tip of the iceberg.

Faced with several times more seriously injured people than them, the medical staff knew that everyone should receive effective treatment.

However, due to insufficient manpower and limited ability, who to save, who not to save, who to save first, and who to save later became a difficult problem before them.

It also became a shackle that tortured their hearts.

The unbearable psychological pressure almost made people collapse.

Some young nurses even had red eyes in the face of the patients' pleas because they were too busy.

Crying and working, working and crying...

Just then, Xiao Chenguang's voice rang out in the hall.

"Everyone, listen to my instructions, and immediately follow the triage process to treat the patient."

"Whether it is the wounded on the scene or the wounded sent later, all will be triaged using the five-level triage standard."

Xiao Chenguang's words startled everyone present.

They didn't know what the five-level classification method was, and they had never heard of it.

Seeing this, Xiao Chenguang immediately set an example and asked someone to get a ball of thread for mending buttons from the nurses' station.

Faced with the colorful wool, Xiao Chenguang picked out five different colors and held them high above his head for everyone to see.

"Level 1 seriously injured patients need immediate treatment. Establish dual access according to the doctor's instructions, and routinely administer 500ml of normal saline intravenously to maintain vital signs."

"Level 2 injured patients, critically ill patients, ensure they are sent to the emergency room within five minutes, assess consciousness and pupils, and draw blood for testing."

"Level 3 injured patients, Level 4 injured patients..."

Xiao Chenguang took the lead in explaining in concise words, while demonstrating and making judgments among the injured.

In a moment, the five different colors of simple wristbands, red, green, blue, yellow, and white, representing the level of injury, distinguished the severity of the patients present one by one, and took corresponding treatment measures.

This simple and fast method immediately improved the efficiency of emergency treatment by several levels.

The effect was obvious, and everyone was stunned.

Everyone was shocked by the five-level injury classification method proposed by Xiao Chenguang.

Facing the injured with different conditions, it turned out that there was such an effective method.

For a moment, the decadence and uneasiness in everyone's hearts were swept away.

"Five-level classification, do you understand?"

"I understand!"

Everyone said in unison.

Xiao Chenguang nodded. The five-level classification he just proposed was a common method used in emergency first aid.

It is mainly used for emergencies to reasonably allocate existing medical resources and optimize diagnostic processes.

To ensure the treatment of critically ill patients.

At this time, another group of people rushed into the emergency department.

A closer look showed that all the medical staff in the emergency department were off duty.

They were panting and sweating. Obviously, they rushed over as soon as they received the notice.

"Good to come!"

Persistence finally paid off, and emergency support arrived!

The good news one after another also encouraged all the medical staff present.

Xiao Chenguang saw Lin Gaoyang, who stood out from the crowd.

"Lin Gaoyang, you take a group of familiar people to temporarily set up a first aid group to deal with seriously injured people with red marks to ensure their safety!"

For Lin Gaoyang, who had just arrived and didn't know the specific situation.

Xiao Chenguang made a prompt decision, divided the levels by ability, and organized the core force of the emergency department into a group to specifically connect with the most critically injured.

"Understood, I will complete the task!"

Lin Gaoyang's tall figure stood there, giving people a strong sense of security.

The team members he selected immediately nodded in response, with firm eyes.

"Gong Liang, you lead a group of people as the second emergency group, responsible for the wounded with yellow marks, help the wounded to clean and suture, prevent infection, and wait for the next treatment."

"Yes, I understand!"

Gong Liang was a little nervous when he was suddenly named, but he quickly strengthened his confidence.

He understood that Dr. Xiao was giving him a chance to perform, and he must seize it...

Then Xiao Chenguang gave orders again.

"Group three is responsible for patient monitoring, group four is responsible for patient transfer..."

Faced with the assigned duties and obligations, everyone had a resolute expression and no objection.

With the clear division of labor, the wounded who were sent one after another finally did not have to gather in the emergency hall.

Medical staff began to distribute wristbands of corresponding colors according to the five-level classification method provided by Xiao Chenguang.

The wounded were divided into several groups at once, and with the help of the corresponding emergency teams, all received timely treatment.

"This method works!"

The haze that had just shrouded their hearts was instantly replaced by joy.

The rekindled hope was burning fiercely, igniting the fire of the medical staff on the scene to treat and save people.

But at this moment, a hurried shout suddenly came.

"Doctor Xiao, the beds in the emergency room are full, and the patients cannot be admitted. What should I do?"

"Doctor Xiao, the debridement room is not enough, and there are still many patients waiting for debridement and suture!"

Even the largest observation room was overcrowded and could not accommodate any more patients.

This car accident injury can be said to be unprecedented.

There are too many injured patients, and they are too serious. With the hardware capacity of the emergency department of Shengli Hospital, all the beds are full.

"Doctor Xiao, what should we do now?"

"There are no beds. We can't let the injured lie on the floor of the corridor to receive treatment."

Seeing the continuous influx of injured patients, the nurses in charge of triage were so anxious that tears were about to fall.

They can overcome difficulties, even if they are so busy that they vomit, as long as the injured are fine, all their efforts are worth it.

But without beds, it is like a soldier on the battlefield without a gun in his hand.

The war cannot be fought, what can we do?
