Reborn in 1977

#451 - Can I change doctors?

Amidst the shouts, a group of workers in blue factory uniforms swarmed up the steps and into the hospital entrance.

Chen Fan immediately spotted the three injured men they were carrying; all of them were covered in blood, and despite the cold weather, they were sweating profusely.

As the group of workers rushed into the hospital, the leader was about to shout, but his eyes landed on Factory Director Yang and Deputy Factory Director Li right in front of him, along with Chairman Zhao from the labor union, causing him to secretly lament.

What he feared most had come to pass.

Factory Director Yang had already taken two steps forward and shouted loudly, "Shi Tiezhu, what happened? How many times have I told you to be careful…"

But Chen Fan pulled him aside, saying, "Save people first."

Shi Tiezhu wore a bitter face, still expecting a torrent of scolding, when he saw that the factory director, who held absolute authority in the factory, was actually pushed aside by a young man?

And the key point was, he wasn't even angry?

He was still smiling apologetically?

Was he dreaming?

Then he saw the young man shouting at him, "What are you standing there for? Put them on the ground."

Shi Tiezhu immediately snapped back to reality, nodding hurriedly, "Oh, oh, oh."

At this moment, Dean Lin rushed over and said, "The ground is too cold, put them on the stretchers."

Immediately, someone pushed three stretcher carts over, allowing the workers to place the injured men on them.

It turned out that he had rushed to the emergency room to call for help and brought back the stretcher carts.

As early as the 1930s, there were records of hospitals using stretcher carts abroad.

However, China's stretcher carts were slightly different from those abroad. Initially, during the Huaihai Campaign, Zhao Xikui, a village instructor, invented a stretcher that could be pushed or carried to save manpower and transport the wounded smoothly.

(That's it, the white part is the frame, and the black part is the stretcher cart)

Later, everyone found this thing quite useful, and after several generations of improvements, it became the familiar wheeled hospital bed of later generations.

Seeing the stretcher carts, Chen Fan couldn't help but think that it really was a machinery factory; they could even make this thing themselves, and it had four wheels and could be fixed in place.

Because the name of Yunhu Machinery Factory was engraved on it.

After the injured men were lying down, Chen Fan didn't have time to say much. He glanced at them and quickly performed simple examinations on each of them, gaining a clear understanding of their conditions.

He asked the workers who helped carry the men to step back, signaled the nurse beside him to give him a pair of gloves, and then stood next to the person on the far left.

Dean Lin didn't stand idle either. He personally began to rescue one of the injured men, while the emergency room director took over the last one.

Chen Fan felt the injured man's chest and turned to look at him, comforting him, "It's okay, just a few broken ribs. As long as they're set properly and you rest for two months, there won't be any problems and it won't affect your future life."

The man's face was pale at this time, covered in sweat, and he was in too much pain to speak. Hearing Chen Fan's words, he first breathed a slight sigh of relief, but the next moment, he felt a bit doubtful.

Was this young doctor really capable?

Before he could react, he felt a surge of pain in his chest, and his vision went dark.

The surrounding workers watched with bated breath. Some wanted to say something, but looking at the three factory leaders standing beside them and recalling Chen Fan's attitude towards the factory director earlier, they closed their mouths.

When injured man number one regained his sight, he gasped for breath and saw the young man going to the worker next to him, while two male nurses took out something and were about to unbutton his clothes…

Chen Fan walked to the injured man in the middle. Dean Lin glanced at him, then looked at the person whose clothes were being unbuttoned, and couldn't help but stare in astonishment, "Is it already better?"

He had heard earlier that the man had several broken ribs. Could they really be set just by pressing them a few times?

Chen Fan said without looking up, "Leave this one to me. You go help fix the splint. I think those two orderlies are a bit clumsy; don't let them misalign the ribs again."

The two busy male nurses immediately turned red. Could you please speak a little quieter?

Dean Lin thought for a moment, then got up and walked over, first signaling the two nurses to stop. He examined the man himself, then looked at Chen Fan, his face as if he had seen a ghost.

With so many years of experience, he couldn't feel even a slight misalignment.

Did he really set them?

Chen Fan pinched the injured man's legs, which were swollen as thick as elephant legs, carefully examined the fractures, and then looked at the injured man who had stopped wailing, revealing a smile, "What did you have for breakfast today?"

Injured man number 2, "? ? ?"

Chen Fan suddenly looked outside the gate, "Look, an airplane!"

Almost everyone who heard this instinctively looked outside, even the injured man tilted his head.

Before they could see anything, they heard a scream, "It hurts…"

Chen Fan stood up and calmly said to the stunned female nurse beside him, "Cut his pants into shorts, wipe both legs with alcohol, and then fix them with plaster."

Plaster bandages had been introduced to China a long time ago, but they were expensive and not widely used. Many grassroots hospitals still commonly used splint fixation. However, as a wealthy entity that often received patients with external injuries, the machinery factory hospital definitely had plaster bandages.

Looking at the nonchalant Chen Fan and the strong man with tears in his eyes, everyone felt a chill down their spines.

An airplane?

You can just do it so forcibly because there's an airplane? Setting bones without even using anesthesia?

But only those who really knew what they were doing understood what had just happened.

Dean Lin even forgot about applying the splint, his eyes full of disbelief. Others didn't know, but he was clear that this man had fractures in both legs.

Chen Fan actually set both legs at the same time? How did he do it?

After taking care of this one, Chen Fan didn't stop and went directly to the last injured man. The emergency room director quickly and voluntarily gave way.

Looking at the injured man's pale face and frightened eyes, Chen Fan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, you don't have any fractures, you don't have to lie down for two or three months like them."

Injured man number 3 breathed a sigh of relief. Was he worried about lying down for three months? He was worried that you would hurt him. Could he change doctors?

Looking at the two next to him…

Before he could turn his head to look, he heard Chen Fan continue, "It's just that the impact was a bit severe, a few places in the internal organs are ruptured, and there's a bit of blood accumulation in the chest cavity."

Ruptured internal organs?

That's internal injury!

Chen Fan was still comforting him, "Don't worry, it's not serious. If we can save you, you'll recover quickly. If we can't save you, you'll leave quickly too, without suffering."

Injured man number 3 rolled his eyes and fainted decisively.

If internal bleeding cannot be stopped in time, wouldn't he leave very quickly?

Chen Fan looked at the fainted injured man, feeling a bit惋惜in his heart. He was still preparing to pinch the man unconscious, but he didn't need to.

He turned to look at the nurse next to him, "Do you have silver needles?"

The nurse nodded gently, "The Traditional Chinese Medicine department has them."

Immediately, someone ran to get the needles.

Chen Fan quickly shouted, "Get a set of puncture needles too."

That person didn't turn his head back, "Okay."

Chen Fan nodded in satisfaction. He liked this kind of wealthy hospital that had everything.

If it were Nanhai Health Center, they definitely wouldn't be able to get plaster bandages, even Doctor Lu had to bring his own silver needles, and stretcher carts were out of the question. It was so poor.

The silver needles and puncture needles were quickly delivered. Chen Fan first took out the silver needles and asked the nurse to unbutton all of the injured man's upper clothes. In order not to affect the application of the needles, even the thermal underwear was cut open with scissors.

Then, without hesitation, he inserted needles into the injured person's chest to stop the internal bleeding.

Next, he picked up the pre-assembled puncture needle from the nurse and inserted it into a specific location in the abdominal cavity.

Immediately, fresh blood flowed through the palm-sized needle into the glass connector and the rubber tube behind it, only to be stopped by the tightened clamp.

He only released the clamp when the nurse brought over an enamel basin, allowing the blood to flow out immediately, quickly filling a small cup.

Seeing that the blood flow was almost finished, he pressed down twice more, squeezed out a little bit, and then pulled out the puncture needle, saying, "Don't move the silver needles on his body for now. Find something to support him before covering him with a blanket. For safety, remove the needles this afternoon. By then, there shouldn't be any more internal bleeding."

After finishing these tasks, the nurses wheeled the injured person to the ward for further treatment.

To promote rapid healing and prevent inflammation of the wound, several days of anti-inflammatory injections were unavoidable. As for a complete recovery, it is said that it takes 100 days to recover from a bone injury, so we'll talk about that three months later.

Chen Fan took off his gloves and went to the washroom to wash his hands.

When he came out, Factory Director Yang clapped his hands and said with a face full of admiration, "Amazing, amazing! No wonder some people call you the emergency care master. Such a serious injury can be handled so quickly in your hands. Incredible!"

Dean Lin also said from the side, "I just went to the ward to check, and the injuries of all three people have been treated and controlled. As long as we follow the steps, there will basically be no danger, and we can just wait for them to recover."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Fan with a complex expression, "I only heard before that Teacher Chen has a deep understanding of emergency care techniques, but I didn't expect him to be so proficient in orthopedics. This kind of bone-setting technique is simply unheard of."

Chen Fan modestly waved his hand and smiled, saying, "It's all just a matter of practice makes perfect. There's nothing special about it."

Dean Lin sighed, "Bone-setting can be improved through practice, but that acupuncture hemostasis requires a profound foundation in acupuncture. As far as I know, only Old Wang from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in the entire Yunhu area can do this."

As he spoke, he raised his head to look at Chen Fan, "And you are the second!"

Chen Fan laughed, "I learned this from Old Wang."

When he went to several hospitals in the district committee to demonstrate various emergency care techniques, one of them was the Yunhu Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. He learned a lot from Old Wang at that time.

Half a day might not be enough for ordinary people to learn anything, but for him, as long as Old Wang said it, it could be turned into experience points and added to his medical skills, not a single bit was wasted.

Chen Fan didn't want to be polite with them, and as soon as he finished speaking, he turned to Factory Director Yang and said, "Uncle Yang, I see that their injuries seem to have been caused by hard objects. Has the cause of the accident been investigated?"

Hearing this, Factory Director Yang immediately darkened his face and sighed before he even started speaking, "It was caused by a machine malfunction. Two parts popped out and hit them like that. The workshop director has already gone back to thoroughly investigate all the machines."

Speaking of this, he shook his head regretfully.

At this time, Chairman Zhao stepped forward and said softly, "This kind of thing is not uncommon in our machinery factory. There are almost several cases every year. Although the machines in the workshop are often inspected, some of them are old and not so reliable after all."

Chen Fan pondered for two seconds and said, "Anyway, I've finished looking at it here. Why don't we go to the workshop to take a look now?"

Factory Director Yang raised his head and smiled, "Okay, I specifically cleared a day today to accompany you on your inspection. You can look wherever you want and however you want."

Dean Lin stood at the entrance of the hospital, watching the group leave, and hoped in his heart that he could finalize Chen Fan's position as a "health consultant."

If Chen Fan had only remained in his ears before, that scene just now made him sure that Chen Fan was an amazing emergency care expert, and trauma emergency care was exactly what heavy industrial units like the machinery factory urgently needed.

It's just a pity that every unit wants good talents, and I don't know if Factory Director Yang and the others will succeed.

......

Accompanied by Factory Director Yang and the other two, Chen Fan didn't take long to visit all the workshops.

How should I put it, to sum it up in one word, it's very "rough".

The workshops are large, there are many raw materials and spare parts, there are also many workers, and all kinds of machines have a punk style with a strong sense of the times.

But these are not the key points.

The main thing is that in most of the workshops, there is a layer of black oil stains from the ground to the machine operating table. The raw materials and spare parts are classified, but it's just a simple classification.

Various types of tools are also concentrated in a large wooden box, and every time they are needed, they have to be searched for for a long time.

That's right, facing this situation, any modern person knows what to do, that is, they must have a "5S" reform!

But!

Who the hell dares to say "5S" in this era, then he must be killed 5 times first!

Don't want to live anymore? Using English to name a management method, what are you thinking?

If you say you learned it from abroad, okay, which country, which unit, where did you hear it from, or where did you see it in a document, please explain it clearly!

The factory is the top priority of national development, will things with unclear origins let you mess around?

Although from 1955, a certain Japanese company shouted the slogan "Safety begins with organization and ends with organization and rectification", only the first two, namely safety and organization, were implemented.

It was not until 1986 that the first "5S" work was published, which had an impact on the on-site management model.

Therefore, Chen Fan also needs to give the management method "he proposed" a new name.

Back in Factory Director Yang's office, he picked up a pen and sketched on the manuscript paper without saying a word.

After a while, he handed two sheets of manuscript paper to Factory Director Yang.

Factory Director Yang took it in his hand, and Deputy Factory Director Li and Chairman Zhao immediately leaned over to watch.

Then they looked up together, "The five basic principles of factory management?"

We invited you here to give advice on the development of the factory. Is this first knife going to be cut on our own heads?

The five principles of management, isn't attacking the factory leaders what it is?

Chen Fan nodded solemnly, and said seriously, "That's right, it is the five basic principles of factory management. This is what I learned from books. Currently, all the workshops in Lujiawan are managed according to these five principles. From the working environment to work safety and work efficiency, all aspects are effective and very reliable."

Factory Director Yang and the other two blinked together, really?

Chen Fan sighed again, "It was originally eight principles. In addition to organization, rectification, cleaning, cleanliness, and discipline, there are also safety, speed, and economy.

But the most feared thing is the difficulty of getting started, so I only wrote the first five."

After a pause, he raised his head and looked at the three of them, "If the machinery factory can do these five things well, safety accidents like today, I dare not say they can be completely eliminated, but the probability can definitely be reduced exponentially, providing efficiency and safety double guarantee for factory production."
