532 Excessive Bleeding!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Lu Cheng was preparing to report the results when suddenly the door of the operating room was pushed open.
A young nurse came running out and shouted, “The patient is bleeding heavily! We need to give him a blood transfusion right away! Go to the blood bank and get some AB blood!”
As soon as the words were spoken, someone ran past them to get the blood. Ye Lu was shocked and asked, “How did this happen?”
The people inside the operating room knew her and didn’t treat her like a normal patient’s family member.
They replied directly, “He was stabbed in the stomach and already lost a lot of blood. During the surgery, we accidentally hit a blood vessel, causing heavy bleeding. The situation is very urgent!”
Ye Lu immediately looked toward Shen Ruojing, who furrowed her brows and said, “I’ll go take a look.”
“Alright.” Ye Lu hurriedly led Shen Ruojing into the adjacent disinfection room.
Shen Ruojing didn’t go straight into the operating room when she arrived earlier because everyone who entered the operating room had to go through disinfection. As for Ye Lu, she had stayed outside to report the specific situation to Shen Ruojing.
Now that they had to enter the operating room, they first went to the isolation room to change into surgical gowns and went through the disinfection process before entering.
Shen Ruojing quickly did all this, taking only two minutes.
When she entered the operating room, she found that Chu Cichen had followed her in, but she didn’t say anything and went straight to Song Chen’s bed.
Song Chen’s abdomen had a small incision, and doctors and nurses were draining blood out of him. Beside him, the blood bags had been prepared before surgery and were being transfused into him. Song Chen’s face was pale, but he hadn’t passed out.
After hearing the sound of someone coming in, he turned his head and looked over.
Ye Lu and Shen Ruojing were wearing surgical caps and masks. Normally, even familiar people wouldn’t be recognized at first sight, but Song Chen’s gaze was fixed directly on Shen Ruojing.
He smiled faintly.
Shen Ruojing was taken aback by this.
There was no pain on his face, which meant that he must have been numbed by excessive blood loss! And how could the patient be conscious during surgery?
The person next to him explained hurriedly, “He said he’s allergic to anesthesia, so we didn’t give him any injections.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruojing instinctively glanced at Chu Cichen. She then immediately withdrew her gaze and walked quickly to Song Chen’s side.
She could see the doctor frantically searching for the bleeding point to press down on.
Ye Lu immediately looked at Shen Ruojing, and she cooperatively took out a bag containing a row of silver needles.
Without hesitation, Shen Ruojing pinched two silver needles and stuck them into Song Chen’s acupoints!
The doctors and nurses at the Shen family hospital already knew Ye Lu’s identity and didn’t question her actions when they saw her assisting Shen Ruojing. After two silver needles were inserted, Song Chen’s bleeding stopped somewhat, and he no longer bled as much as before.
After that, the lead doctor found the bleeding point and sutured it. Now, everything seemed to be improving. However, the data displayed on various instruments did not look good.
The nurse who was monitoring the data immediately said, “Where’s the blood bag? We’ve almost used up our two bags of blood here, but he is still in a state of blood loss! Hurry and remind them to bring it!”
“Yes!”
Someone else ran out again.
But before that person even left, the first person who had just gone to get the blood bag ran back and said, “It’s not good. A batch of car crash patients were just brought into the hospital. Several of those patients are in need of AB blood type as well, and our AB blood bank is already low on supply. We already sent people to other hospitals to get blood, but it will take at least an hour!”
People with A, B, and O blood types were more common, and these three types each accounted for about 30% of the general population. People with AB blood type, on the other hand, only made up about 10%.
Therefore, when hospitals stored blood, they usually had less AB blood than the other types.
Today’s situation was unusual, and they happened to have a car crash where half of the victims had AB blood type, which led to the AB blood bags being in dire need.
Shen Ruojing’s gaze darkened slightly. She hadn’t expected things to go this badly.
The lead doctor furrowed his brow and asked the people present, “Does anyone have AB blood type?
There was silence in the ward when he asked.
The medical instruments then emitted a dangerous alarm, indicating that if there was no more blood input, Song Chen was likely to go into shock and die!
‘Tm B type, what about you?
‘Im also B.”
‘Im A!”
‘Im O!’
‘Who has AB? Hurry up and say something!”
In the room, the doctors and nurses were all eager to save the patient.
If any of them could donate blood, they would have spoken up already.
However, coincidentally, it seemed that no one in the room had AB blood type. The probability of this happening was indeed quite low – only one in ten people would have AB blood type
Shen Ruojing was also becoming anxious. Even though she was a skilled doctor, without a blood transfusion, she couldn’t save the patient from hemorrhagic shock.
The lying Song Chen also seemed to understand what was happening. He struggled to open his eyes, and Ye Lu shouted, “Song Chen, stay awake, do you hear me? No sleeping!’
However, Song Chen felt his eyelids getting heavier as if he was about to sink into darkness. He tried to lift his arm but couldn’t muster any strength. Finally, he could only move his fingers.
Seeing this, Shen Ruojing fell silent for a moment and walked over to Song Chen’s side.
Song Chen’s lips curled into a weak but pitiful smile, and he asked in a feeble voice, ‘Why didn’t you come to see me?
Hearing this, Shen Ruojing pursed her lips but didn’t say anything.
Song Chen slowly opened the other hand which was tightly clenched into a fist. In his palm lay a crystal-clear pebble.
Song Chen looked at the stone and said, “Do you remember this stone? It was our token of love…”
Shen Ruojing, who had always been indifferent, was finally moved. She quietly lifted her eyes and looked at the stone in astonishment.
Song Chen held the stone again and said, “Jingjing, I didn’t mean to deceive you. Can you forgive me?
Shen Ruojing looked at his palm, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Song Chen smiled bitterly but still grabbed Shen Ruojing’s sleeve and wanted to say more. However, he had no strength left. He just stared at her, his eyes full of pleading and persistence.
Although no more words were spoken, at this moment, everyone in the room seemed to understand what he was saying: ‘if you don’t forgive me, I won’t rest in peace.’
Shen Ruojing clenched her fist, feeling an inexplicable sorrow and bitterness in her heart.
Song Chen opened his mouth again. He seemingly used up the last of his strength to say, “I successfully lured them out….”
