Lin Zhiyuan bit the bullet and found Tang Jin. After turning a few corners, he explained the truth.
"I'm sorry, I have some bad news to tell you. The original plan to do it in the digital demonstration operating room has been adjusted, and the operation will be performed in the neurosurgery operating room No. 5."
Tang Jin frowned slightly.
Any doctor hates changing orders day by day.
"Lin, why do you need to change the operating room? The equipment and instruments in your hospital are not at the same level as Mayo's. I need to go to the site to understand the situation of the equipment and equipment. Now changing the operating room means that I have to do this again.
Preparation. My time is precious and should not be wasted on something like this."
Lin Zhiyuan has been in contact with Tang Jin for a while and already has a lot of understanding of his character.
Tang Jin seems easy-going on the surface, but when it comes to professional issues, he is not only strict, but also a bit paranoid.
Now it involves adjustments to the operating room, which makes Tang Jin extremely unhappy.
Lin Zhiyuan explained the reason clearly, "The hospital policy adjustment is related to the bodyguard you hired who used violence against a woman. This incident has caused an uproar on social media in China."
Tang Jin said angrily, "If this would never happen at Mayo, it would be unbelievable for a patient's family to go directly to the doctor without making an appointment. My bodyguard was acting in legitimate defense to protect me.
Posture. If we really want to pursue responsibility, we can only blame Tianhua's security measures for being so poor."
Tang Jin's every word was full of contempt for Tianhua.
Although Lin Zhiyuan also felt that Tianhua needed to improve in many areas, Tang Jin's arrogant attitude also aroused Lin Zhiyuan's displeasure.
Now is not the time to compete with Tang Jin.
"The adjustment of the operating room is a matter of notification, not negotiation. The advance payment for those operations has been remitted to your designated account. The contract does not indicate the issue of the operating room, so you must make changes according to the hospital's requirements.
Operating room."
Facing Lin Zhiyuan's strength, Tang Jin was suddenly caught off guard.
After all, Lin Zhiyuan has kept his posture very low since he got off the plane.
"Lin, I'm sorry, I just had a bad attitude, and I apologize to you. I felt very upset when something like this happened." Tang Jin paused and said helplessly, "I was deeply impressed by that patient's case.
Judging from the information they submitted, this operation is too difficult, and the success rate is only about 60%. When I came to Tianhua to participate in the event, how much I earned for the operation was second. I first wanted to ensure the success rate.
, this is our common view, isn’t it?”
Lin Zhiyuan nodded slightly, "The patient has been admitted to the Neurosurgery Department of our hospital and will be broadcast live to the outside world in the demonstration operating room to calm the anger of the outside world."
Hearing this, Tang Jin had a look of disbelief in his eyes, "Did I hear you right? Your hospital is going to operate on that patient? If it fails, wouldn't it be asking for trouble?"
Lin Zhiyuan understood what Tang Jin meant.
Tang Jin had already made a preliminary assessment of the difficulty of the patient's surgery.
Tang Jin felt that he could only be 60% sure, and Tianhua's doctor's probability of success was definitely much lower.
Lin Zhiyuan said solemnly, "This is not a trouble! The patient has needs and the doctor has no shirk."
Tang Jin sighed, "It is irresponsible to the patient to perform an operation beyond the scope of capabilities. Your hospital did not stop them and allowed them to do this. This is an extremely terrible behavior."
Lin Zhiyuan was silent for a few seconds, "This is the difference between Tianhua and Mayo. Doctors at Mayo will remain absolutely rational at all times and use data to evaluate the success rate of an operation and whether a patient is worthy of treatment.
However, Tianhua's doctors will do their best for every life, even though they may fail, cause unnecessary trouble, or even medical disputes, they will never look back because we feel that the value of life cannot be measured by money."
Tang Jin had a hard time understanding this.
The family affection among foreigners is weak.
When their children grow up, parents will clearly tell them that they will have to support themselves in the future.
When parents grow old, children have no obligation to support their parents.
To put it nicely, the elderly in the West emphasize spiritual independence and are unwilling to rely on their children. They rely on medical insurance and medical staff when they are sick.
But to put it bluntly, it is a cold-blooded social system.
Take the beautiful country as an example. Their support relationship is all about "money". They pay to live in a nursing home, pay for caregivers, and pay for funeral expenses...
Therefore, under this social value system, the relationship between doctors and patients has become particularly realistic.
Tang Jin finally chose to compromise.
For him, it was originally an activity of going abroad to show off and make money.
Now it won't interfere with the act of making money, and there is no need to show off. For him, it saves a lot of trouble.
"Okay, I respect your arrangement." Tang Jin frowned, "I will speed up the operation and complete all operations within two days."
Lin Zhiyuan can understand Tang Jin's mood.
Now he just wants to leave Tianhua quickly and stay away from the place of right and wrong.
Lin Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Thank you for your understanding. Do you need to go to the operating room now?"
Tang Jin is still very dedicated in this regard, "Of course!"
After Lin Zhiyuan left, Tang Jin sat in the office with a profound look on his face.
Tang Jin actually still regrets that things have developed to this point.
The key is that Tianhua admitted and treated that patient.
If the operation fails, that's it.
However, if the operation is successful, it will bring a certain blow to his reputation.
By then Tianhua's neurosurgery department will use itself as a stepping stone to climb up the ranks.
Tang Jin turned on the computer and called up the patient's file.
After some serious calculations again, we finally came up with a success rate of 63%.
Tang Jin would generally not consider a success rate lower than 70%.
He has some knowledge of Tianhua's neurosurgery.
The current director of the department, Shan Zhenyu, is a doctor who is about to retire.
Although he has enough experience, his physical strength, concentration, stability, and reflexes have all declined.
Compared with other surgeries, neurosurgery is a profession that requires very high energy.
Otherwise, Shan Zhenyu would not have taken the initiative to apply for retirement from the hospital many times.
The patient's brain tumor condition is very serious, and the operation will most likely take more than ten hours. With Shan Zhenyu's physical ability, he simply cannot maintain sufficient energy throughout the process.
Therefore, Shan Zhenyu’s success rate for this operation was about 58%.
If you perform surgery with this kind of data, the results are bound to be disastrous.
If the operation fails, the Internet trolls in China are likely to turn their anger onto themselves.
Tang Jin decided to speed up the progress of the operation and try to leave China as soon as possible.
Tang Jin inspected the Neurosurgery Operating Room No. 5.
There were only slight differences from the equipment in the demonstration operating room. He adjusted the plan slightly, informed Lin Zhiyuan, and started the operation later.
Lin Zhiyuan was eager to let Tang Jin leave as soon as possible.
He quickly coordinated with Tang Jin and equipped him with suitable assistants and nurses...
