Under the guarantee and special care of Director Zhou, Qin Feng's life was going quite well.
[Ding! Day 48 Sign-in, congratulations to the host for obtaining (world-class aortic dissection surgery experience)]

[Ding! Day 50 Sign-in, congratulations to the host for obtaining (world-class bowel cancer removal surgery experience)]
...
In the next one or two months, besides his daily sign-ins and gaining experience, he would chat and laugh with the young nurses during breakfast and join other resident doctors on rounds.
The other intern doctors were envious but had no choice.
This guy's a hidden master!
Moreover, Emergency Department Director Zhou Xianren personally approved him to perform surgeries, a privilege even residents didn't have!
Zhao Yitian, having worked here for eight or nine years, was thrilled to be Qin Feng's mentor and couldn't stop smiling.
"Qin Feng, help me take a look at this case. My diagnosis differs a bit from this one."
Qin Feng had just sent off a patient when Zhao Yitian brought over a case file.
He took a glance and instantly understood.
"This is drowning-induced pulmonary explosion, causing brain death, at least over two hours already.
It's hopeless!"
"Wow, you could tell the time of death at a glance?"
Zhao Yitian shuddered in surprise,
"With skills like that, not being a forensic doctor is a bit of a waste!"
"Haha, I still prefer saving lives."
Qin Feng handed the case file back to him and got up to leave,
"Dr. Zhao, monitor this for me for a bit."
He said and then headed towards the office.
As he pushed open the door, he saw Deputy Director Chen Yuanfang chatting and laughing with Director Zhou.
Upon seeing him come in, her face suddenly lit up with joy, and she quickly came over.
"Xiaoxin, I was just about to look for you, didn't expect you to come."
Director Chen Yuanfang shook his hand with joy spilling over.
"Director Chen, you're too kind, saving you was my pleasure."
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, then laughed as well.
Immediately followed by some chatter, they wouldn't let him leave.
Qin Feng felt quite awkward facing such enthusiasm, with a pile of gifts on the table.
"Xiaoxin, come to my house for dinner tonight, okay?"
Chen Yuanfang, looking at him fondly while holding his hand, said softly.
"Um...."
"No refusing!"
Just as Qin Feng hesitated, she immediately put on a serious expression,
"I got Yan'Er to buy your favorite seafood, I'll wait for you after work."
"Alright then."
Qin Feng helplessly nodded, a smile appearing on his lips.
It's hard to refuse such kindness!
Might as well go, there's seafood to eat anyway.
"Alright, you go back to work, I won't take up any more of your time."
As soon as Chen Yuanfang saw him agree, she immediately smiled generously.
Qin Feng seized the moment to slip away~
"This kid is great, you have good taste."
As Qin Feng walked out of the office, Director Zhou said softly.
Chen Yuanfang's lips curled into a satisfied smile and glanced at Zhou Xianren.
"Nonsense, brother, are you jealous?"
Zhou Xianren instantly had black lines over his face...
(It's a pity my useless son isn't a daughter.
If only Qin Feng liked guys!)
Qin Feng ╮(╯▽╰)╭...
...
He had just returned to the consultation room, having barely warmed his seat.
Suddenly, a flurry of urgent and chaotic footsteps sounded from outside, indicating a quite a few people.
He exchanged a glance with Zhao Yitian and immediately got up to head out.
On the stretcher lay an old man, already in a coma.
Surrounded by five or six people, all looking anxious.
"What's going on?"
Zhao Yitian quickly stepped forward to ask.
"We were having dinner at home when everything was fine, and then my dad suddenly collapsed."
A woman first spoke up, briefly explaining the situation.
Qin Feng saw that the old man's face was cyanotic, already starting to turn black, continuously gasping for air but barely exhaling.
"Prepare for intubation, bedside ECG, and CT."
With that said, he quickly pushed the old man into the emergency room.
Pa~Pa~
"Laryngoscope!"
Qin Feng took the laryngoscope handed by a nurse, raised the patient's jaw, and opened the airway.
He skillfully inserted the laryngoscope, positioned the trachea, then removed it, and connected the ventilator.
The two nurses also attached monitoring equipment to the elderly man, and the data showed that his blood oxygen level was only at 40.
High risk!
"Establish an intravenous line and do a CT scan of the brain."
As soon as Qin Feng finished speaking, Zhao Yitian stepped forward to perform the CT scan for the elderly man.
"Is my dad alright? We were just having a meal!"
The woman nearby and several men were extremely anxious, and would have rushed over if the nurses hadn't stopped them.
"Family members, please wait outside, do not interfere with our examination."
Qin Feng, already adept, opened the patient's femoral artery pathway, and in just two minutes, the blood oxygen level began to rise.
At this moment, both the CT and the electrocardiogram results came out, and Dr. Zhao frowned the moment he saw them.
"Qin Feng, take a look."
He immediately handed it over to him.
Qin Feng took it, and upon seeing the head CT scan, instantly made a judgment.
There was a small black shadow on the brainstem, about two millimeters in size.
A blood clot!
This small blood clot directly blocked the blood vessels in the brainstem, causing the patient to lose consciousness and motor function without warning.
"Call cardiology and neurology for a consultation."
Qin Feng nodded and said seriously.
Stepping out of the emergency room, he looked at the patient's family members.
"Our preliminary assessment is that there's a problem in the patient's brain, so more detailed examination and confirmation are needed.
Does the patient have any medical history? We need to know the specific situation."
"My, my dad has had high blood pressure for over thirty years," said the leading woman.
"How about his medication compliance?"
"He takes medicine occasionally, only when he feels unwell, otherwise he doesn't take it regularly."
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Qin Feng frowned slightly,
"Why doesn't he take his medication regularly?"
"Ah, doctor, you don't know. My dad is stubborn, he simply won't listen!"
The woman said helplessly, stomping her foot,
"We, as children, can't control him. Doctor, will my dad be alright?"
Qin Feng shook his head helplessly.
"We suspect a cerebral thrombosis, but we need to wait for a more precise judgment. Stay here, please don't go in for now."
Just after he finished speaking, Zhao Yitian came out of the emergency room.
"Stabilized, blood oxygen level back to 90."
"Alright, let's go over then."
Qin Feng nodded, taking the report and leaving.
Zhao Yitian followed behind him like a student, without saying a word.
Not in the least bit disgruntled, but somewhat pleased?
Oh boy!
A senior resident turned into an intern's follower?
Wondering if Chen Yuanfang, upon witnessing this scene when she returns, would directly give up on this student.

In the conference room,
Director Zhang from the cardiology and neurology department looked at the report Qin Feng handed him and nodded.
"Qin Feng, what do you think?"
"Director Zhang, this blood clot is very close to the brainstem, and thrombolysis would be difficult. My suggestion is to operate."
Qin Feng shared his thoughts when asked by Director Zhang.
Director Zhang nodded, this basically matched his own judgment.
However, the final decision would depend on the family's consent.
Thus, in another conference room, the elderly man's family was invited in.
Since this was an emergency case, it fell to Qin Feng and Zhao Yitian to discuss it.
"Do everything you can to treat him!"
Upon hearing these words, the patient's family members resolutely expressed their stance.
This left him quite relieved, because given the current situation of the elderly man, even though it was very risky, if he were to perform the surgery, there would be at least an 80% success rate.
This success rate is significantly higher, by a full 20%, than that of the cardiology and neurology department!
Keep in mind, a blood clot in the brainstem is an extremely dangerous location.
The brainstem is where the densest nerve centers are located in the human body, where any slight mistake can cause serious consequences.
Slight missteps could result in damage to certain areas of the patient, whereas severe cases could lead to serious paralysis or death.
Hence, brainstem thrombosis is recognized as highly dangerous!
"Alright, if you agree, we will proceed with outlining the surgical plan."
Qin Feng and Zhao Yitian exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement.
After speaking, the family members did not continue but nodded in agreement.
Soon, the neurosurgery department began discussing the surgical plan, and it took a full two hours of discussion before finalizing it.
Director Zhou also returned at this time, joining the discussion on the surgical plan.
He certainly didn't want this surgery to be completed by the neurology department because it would mean a loss for the emergency department.
The neurology department could simply come to the emergency department to perform the surgery.
"No matter whether the surgery is performed or not, the patient is under your care!"
Finally, after Director Zhou's persistent argument, the cardiology and neurology department agreed to this condition.
However,
An unexpected incident occurred...
