Legend (4)
As soon as I saw the dented car, my mind went blank.
A vehicle with a very familiar appearance.
I could see at a glance who was inside it.
I tried to deny reality for a moment, but the moment I checked the license plate number, I came to my senses.
Ride, ride, ride.
Choi Ki-seok grabbed the first aid kit and ran toward the car.
The front of the car and the driver’s seat were crushed like pieces of paper, as if the truck and car had collided.
‘Ah…’
I opened my mouth without realizing it after checking who was in the driver’s seat.
The ominous premonition was not wrong.
An unconscious Song Myeong-jin was sitting in the driver’s seat, covered in blood.
A protruding steel frame was lodged in his abdomen as a result of the crash.
‘Kiseok. ‘Not now.’
I clenched my fists and consoled myself.
During Jace’s laparoscopic liver cancer surgery, his frozen heart was temporarily broken. As I checked on my injured teacher, a similar feeling came over me.
“Charlie! Help me.”
“I’m leaving now.”
“I can’t open the door because the driver’s seat is dented. First, I have to get the patient out to the passenger side.”
“I knew.”
“Charlie, please put your hand in the armpit and carefully remove the patient. I will be supporting the neck.”
According to his instructions, the rescue operation for Song Myeong-jin began.
It was not easy to rescue Song Myeong-jin as he was crushed by the crushed car.
There was a risk of additional injury if excessive force was used. On the contrary, because I used less force, I was unable to take Song Myeong-jin out.
“This can’t go on like this, Dr. Choi. Please secure the patient’s neck well. I’ll use my strength to pull it out in one go. I’ll pull it out in three. One. Two. Three!”
Charlie pulled Song Myeong-jin to the outside in a panic, and Choi Ki-seok properly secured Song Myeong-jin’s neck.
With the help of the two people, Song Myeong-jin barely managed to get out of the car.

Choi Ki-seok used Hippocrates and bit his lip.
Song Myeong-jin was in the worst condition among the traffic accident patients he treated.
It’s almost a miracle that he didn’t die instantly.
“I checked, and the truck driver is not injured. This patient…”
Scarlett, who joined the team late, could not bear to continue speaking.
It was immediately apparent that the patient was in an unusual condition.
“I will take care of CPR, so you can do the rest.”
Choi Ki-seok put on the Must Be Saved skill and the Awakening CPR buff on himself and gave instructions like a rapid-fire gun.
“Charlie, please take care of the trauma area. First, apply a compression bandage to the head to control the bleeding and treat the open fracture in the right hand. Then, secure the steel frame in the abdomen. If the steel frame moves, there will be additional organ damage.”
“yes!”
“Please secure Scarlett’s venous line and apply a type B blood pack.”
“yes!”
“All Greg needs to do is secure the patient’s neck with a cervical spine immobilizer and set up the defibrillator.”
“All right.”
After the instructions were given, the actual treatment began.
puck! puck! puck! puck!
After completing chest compressions, Choi Ki-seok secured Song Myeong-jin’s airway using a laryngoscope.
Then, oxygen was supplied by squeezing the embouchure bag.
Although fellow staff members added treatment one by one, his condition was no different from the first time.
Subdural hemorrhage Lung rupture, pulmonary artery rupture, spleen and duodenum rupture.
This is because treatment for this core trauma was not provided.
“Charlie and Greg, please prepare for transport. We will continue CPR as we move.”
Choi Ki-seok laid Song Myeong-jin down on the stretcher and carefully placed him in the back seat of the ambulance.
Weeeeeeeee.
An ambulance sped down the road with a loud siren sound.
Ki-Seok Choi continued CPR with the help of Scarlett and Greg.
Then, in a hurry, I grabbed my cell phone.
Even though the beep only rang twice, I felt restless. I was worried that the other person might not answer the phone.
“Head Chief. This is Kiseok Choi.”
[I can’t believe you’re talking to me on the phone. That’s a big deal.]
Smith said with a chuckle.
“This is an emergency, so I’ll just get to the point. The head chief of the thoracic surgery department got into a car accident while returning to the hospital. The condition was so serious that I contacted the head chief first.”
[what? Dr. Song’s car accident?]
“Yes. I think I’ll have to do general surgery first, so I hope the head chief can help.”
[okay. Go down to the emergency room right away.]
After Smith hung up the phone, Ki-Seok Choi let out the breath he had barely been holding.
From gastrointestinal surgery, colon surgery, and hepatobiliary pancreatic surgery.
A Smith who has mastered these three disciplines will be able to save the Master.
‘Just wait a little while. please.’
Choi Ki-seok looked down at Song Myeong-jin and bit his nails.
He was a teacher who looked after him, sometimes standing across from him and sometimes standing next to him. I did not want to meet like a patient and a doctor and look down on them one-sidedly.
“Charlie, how many minutes are left until the clinic?”
“You can look at it for about ten minutes. The rain is slippery so you can’t step on it any harder.”
“all right.”
He used the eyes of Hippocrates once again on Song Myeong-jin.
My breathing returned to some extent and my pulse began to beat. It was possible to stop CPR, but other problems were holding back the situation.
It’s a hemothorax.
The aftereffects of the lung rupture were appearing late.
“Scarlett. Please prepare the thoracic intubation set.”
“Huh? Thoracic intubation?”
Scarlett made a bewildered expression.
“Dr. Choi, I’m not sure if thoracic intubation is necessary. Moreover, the car is moving right now. If the puncture fails, what will I do next?”
“Intubation set!”
A loud shout went out.
Choi Ki-seok’s eyes as he looked at Scarlett did not waver at all.
“Ha… Really. Because of Dr. Choi, my lifespan is shortening every week.”
Scarlett sighed and began preparing for intubation.
Choi Ki-seok put on surgical gloves and held the scalpel given to him by Scarlett.
Just then, the ambulance took a curve and the body suddenly tilted to one side.
As Scarlett feared, these are the worst conditions for intubation. However, his hand holding the scalpel was full of strength.
There are ten minutes left until we arrive at the clinic.
If the puncture is not successful, Song Myeong-jin will die before entering the operating room.
‘you can do it. ‘If it were me.’
Choi Ki-seok took a deep breath and brought the catheter closer to Song Myeong-jin’s chest. Scarlett and Greg watched him with nervous faces.
Everything was at his fingertips.
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
When the scalpel was cut vertically, the skin split.
“Kelly.”
“yes.”
Using the forceps Scarlett gave me, I slowly removed the muscles between my ribs.
Even in the ambulance driving in the rain, his hands did not move at all.
It was as comfortable as treating a patient on a bed.
“Here. I can feel the pleura. The tube.”
Ki-Seok Choi applied moderate force and pushed the tube into the pleura.
At that moment, I vividly felt the feeling of piercing a thin membrane in my hand.
Gurgling.
The blood that had accumulated in the chest cavity poured down the tube and into the drain.
The amount was so large that one-third of the drain tank filled up in an instant.
“Scarlett. Please put on a new blood pack.”
“Yes? Oh yes.”
Scarlett watched Choi Ki-seok’s treatment in fascination and moved late.
Even though I saw the treatment process from start to finish, I couldn’t believe it.
His diagnosis was accurate and the treatment that took place in the moving car was perfect.
It’s hard to believe that he’s a new resident.
Scarlett thought as she replaced the blood pack.
I don’t know if Choi Ki-seok would be able to save this dying patient.
“Phew… we did everything we could for now.”
Ki-Seok Choi fixed the chest tube intubation site and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
Moments later, after the longest ten minutes of my life, the ambulance arrived at Meijo.
Choi Ki-seok and his colleagues pushed the stretcher car that Song Myeong-jin was lying on to the emergency room.
“That guy? Isn’t he the head chief of cardiothoracic surgery?”
“It’s true. Why Dr. Song?”
Several staff members who recognized Song Myeong-jin looked surprised.
“We arrived just in time. What is Dr. Song’s condition?”
Smith, who was waiting in the emergency room, approached like lightning.
The moment he faced him, Choi Ki-seok felt like he was about to burst into tears. I don’t know how anxious I was, fearing that my teacher would pass away during the transport.
But the moment I met Smith, my heart relaxed.
It is a sense of relief given by a skilled surgeon.
“If his vitals are okay, we’ll have to do an examination first. We may need to do CPR again along the way, so you take responsibility and stay next to Dr. Song. As soon as the examination is over, come up to the operating room.”
“yes!”
Choi Ki-seok answered bravely.
Afterwards, he informed his colleagues that he could not continue his rescue team activities and went to the prosecutor’s office.
I didn’t know that if I looked at another emergency patient with the same mindset, something bad might happen. In addition, I wanted to contribute even a little bit to my teacher’s upcoming surgery.
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Ki-Seok Choi completed all tests and moved to the operating room.
Song Myeong-jin is still unconscious.
As a result of looking at it through the eyes of Hippocrates, the condition went from an emergency (near death) to poor recovery.
‘professor. Mayjo is the best hospital in the world. So, I will definitely save the professor. I believe so.’
Choi Ki-seok looked down at Song Myeong-jin and thought to himself.
Jiiiing.
When I entered the operating room, the general surgery staff was gathered in front of the D rosette.
They are looking at the test results on the screen.
“There were no problems along the way, right?”
“Yes, there wasn’t.”
“Then let’s scrub right away. We’re going to put Mr. Choi first, so brace yourself.”
“Thank you thank you.”
Ki-Seok Choi lowered his head to 90 degrees.
Thank you.
Because Smith recognized my desire to help my teacher with his treatment.
Buck. Buck. Buck. Buck.
The staff stood side by side and went to scrub.
“Mr. Choi.”
Smith’s gaze turned to Choi Ki-seok.
“Yes, Head Chief.”
“I hate to say this, but Dr. Song’s condition is hopeless. The damaged area is too extensive. Besides, after the general surgery, he has to undergo thoracic surgery and neurosurgery right away.”
“….”
“I know.”
“I’ll do my best, but saving Dr. Song won’t be easy.”
“I’m fine. If there’s even the slightest possibility, that’s enough. If this were a proper world, I don’t think they would have taken Professor Song away already.”
“Yeah. Maybe like you said…”
Smith paused before continuing.
“Today’s surgery may be a test of heaven’s will. Let’s go now.”
“Yes!”
The two people and the staff entered the operating room at once.
The staff stood in their respective positions while the anesthesiologist administered general anesthesia.
Choi Ki-seok stood in the first assistant position and looked down at Song Myeong-jin.
The bright lights of the surgery lights were shining. The teacher looked particularly pale in the light.
‘I will protect you this time. I will definitely!’
