Level Up Doctor Chapter 287

Unfinished Challenge (1)

After Choi Ki-seok came down, the flow of the emergency room completely changed.

Would you say that the emergency room, which used to be a mess, has regained its appearance as a medical institution?

‘amazing. really.’

Angela’s eyes never left Choi Ki-seok.

He was still on the front lines, triaging patients and giving instructions to doctors.

A charisma that captivated countless doctors.

Quick triage of patients and distribution of roles to doctors, etc.

How many people would believe that he was a resident who had just been assigned to MHC?

“Whoa. Teacher Su. I think I’ll finally live.”

May, who had just finished the treatment, opened her mouth.

“Because we gathered the guardians in one place, we had less to worry about. The doctors who were idle treated the patients together, so the number of workers increased. If we had done this a long time ago, what would have been added?”

“That’s what I said.”

“But who is that Asian teacher? I’m seeing him for the first time today, and he’s really cool. Is he Chief Yasada of the thoracic surgery department?”

“Can Chief Yasada be that young?”

“You’re not even a chief, so how can you go out like that?”

May asked back, blinking her eyes.

“That teacher is Ki-seok Choi, a first-year thoracic surgery resident. He was very famous from Meijo. Oh, by the way. I don’t know because you just joined the company.”

“Yes. I see you for the first time today.”

May’s seat was also fixed on Choi Ki-seok.

“And today I felt for the first time that doctors are really cool. The doctors at the hospital I worked at had hobbies and specialties like yawning and being a nurse.”

“….”

“Do you have a lover? Should I give it a try?”

“Don’t overdo it. He’s not the right person for you.”

“Teacher Su! What’s wrong with me? Even though I say it with my own mouth, I’m also saying that I’m not missing anywhere on my face or body.”

May pursed her lips sharply.

“From what I heard, Mr. Choi is a single-minded person who only cares about patients and medical care. Even if you attack him, he won’t budge.”

“Tch! Anyway, a man is still a man. Now that Teacher Su says that, I feel even more angry.”

“Stop talking and look at the patient over there.”

“…yes.”

Angela sent a noisy May away and inspected the emergency room.

Thirty minutes after Choi Ki-seok began conducting,

the speed of processing patients caught up with the speed of patient inflow.

* * *

“Stable. Stable. Treatment. This patient is receiving warfarin (anticoagulant), so please write down the precautions in the chart.”

After finishing triaging the patient once, Ki-Seok Choi wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand.

Not long ago, the emergency room was crowded with patients and doctors called by their guardians, creating hell. But now the confusion from the beginning was gone.

‘what. ‘If this is enough…’

A faint smile appeared on his lips as he looked around the emergency room.

Patients who need surgery have already completed their examination and left for the operating room, while the remaining patients are resting after receiving appropriate treatment in the emergency room.

There was no more chaos.

The visits of ambulances, which had been frantically transporting patients, also became less frequent.

I was proud of myself for getting through my first Code Black experience without any problems.

“Teacher. Are you tired? Please eat at least this.”

A nurse came over and handed me an energy drink.

I could tell from the name tag around her neck that her name was May.

“Thank you May.”

“Hehe. What can I do with this much?”

May paused before continuing.

“But it seems like Dr. Choi has some special abilities.”

“Abilities?”

“I saw you triage a patient earlier. But how can you tell right away whether a patient needs surgery or treatment as soon as you see them? That’s a complete problem.”

The doctors nearby pricked up their ears at May’s question.

He just didn’t ask, and other people were also curious about his new diagnostic skills.

“There are world-renowned emergency medicine authorities in Korea, such as Chief Yasada of the Thoracic Surgery Department and Deputy Director Song Myeong-jin. I received teachings from them.”

“Ah… there was another such great person in Korea. By the way, what is his name?”

Choi Ki-seok’s eyes wavered at May’s surprise question.

I thought I covered this well, but I never thought I would go into detail.

“I am… Teacher Jeongman Choi.”

“I see. You’ve had a hard time. Please have a drink and get some fresh air.”

“It’s okay. The triage is over, so I need to help with the treatment.”

“You really only care about patients. But I think a man who focuses on one thing is so cool.”

May said something vaguely and returned to the station.

‘grandfather. sorry.’

Choi Ki-seok watched her back and muttered to himself.

I unintentionally made my late grandfather an authority in the emergency medicine field.

Because my paternal grandfather’s name was Choi Jeong-man.

Tiring!

[You have completed the sudden mission ‘Escape Code Black.’ As a reward, some stats will increase.]

[Reputation: 4—- > 6]

[Charisma: 8 —- > 9]

[You have acquired a new title.]

[Truth of Command]

– Choi Ki-seok, you are so cool. Even men will fall in love when they see it.

– When you give instructions to staff, their action power is doubled. If the other person is not hostile towards you, your likeability and attractiveness index will increase significantly.

Click!

After checking the status window, he drank an energy drink and approached the thoracic surgeons who were treating him.

Emma is waiting in the ward while Charles and Jeremy, who are resting in the dormitory, are receiving treatment.

Fuuuuuk!

Charles skillfully inserted a chest tube into the patient, and Jeremy assisted.

Everything that followed was perfect.

I feel ashamed of myself for watching and worrying even a little.

“Are you done triaging the patient?”

“Just now. The ambulance isn’t coming anymore.”

“It was a lot of hard work. If it wasn’t for you, the patient would have died quite a bit.”

Charles tapped him on the shoulder.

No matter what anyone says, the biggest contributor to resolving this Code Black was Ki-Seok Choi.

Isn’t this the first code black that occurred in MHC?

In a situation where all the souls of the medical staff ran away, Choi Ki-seok’s wise judgment shined.

“Someone had to do it.”

“It’s something that no one else has been able to do. I’m proud that we are classmates in the same thoracic surgery department.”

“thank you.”

The two people looked at each other and smiled.

Weeeeeeeee.

The sound of a siren exploding urgently.

Soon after, paramedics entered the emergency room, pulling a stretcher car.

“Are you a typhoon victim?”

“That’s not true. I received a report that the chest pain was so severe that he couldn’t move.”

“Uuuuugh! Doctor. My heart hurts so much. It feels like it’s breaking!”

The patient grimaced and twisted his body.

Choi Ki-seok used the Eye of Hippocrates on him and frowned.

This is an emergency.

It is a super emergency among emergencies.

“Jeremy, hold the patient’s intravenous line and administer beta blockers and nitropruside. Don’t forget to do a chest CT after treatment. Charles, grab the operating room right away and contact Professor Katarina.”

Ki-Seok Choi quickly gave instructions and connected the monitoring device to the patient.

“What about this patient?”

Jeremy, who had brought his first aid kit, tilted his head.

“It’s a classic aortic dissection.”

“Aortic dissection?”

Jeremy looked down at the patient with an expression of disbelief.

Aortic dissection.

The aorta is a blood vessel that supplies blood from the heart to the entire body. However, it is a disease in which the aorta is torn for various reasons, either acute or chronic, and bleeding occurs.

The mortality rate for aortic dissection increases uncontrollably over time, so it is best to perform surgery quickly.

“Teacher. Ugh! Please help me.”

“I’ll do my best, so please be patient.”

Choi Ki-seok used a lung killer on a patient.

[Pain Killer]

– Reduces the patient’s physical pain by 70%. Because it is simple pain relief rather than a fundamental treatment, it may mask symptoms. The effect lasts for one week.

– Number of uses: (2/5)

“The injection is finished. I’ll get a CT scan.”

“Please. What about Charles’ operating room?”

“I caught the K rosette and I’m calling the professor.”

After some time, Charles had a conversation with Katarina and Choi Ki-seok watched him nervously.

Just right. Just right. Just right. Just right.

I bumped my teeth without realizing it.

Suddenly, the minute hand of the wall clock I looked at seemed to be moving quickly, as if racing.

“Sir. What will happen to my husband?”

After completing the medical procedures, the patient’s guardian approached Ki-Seok Choi.

Choi Ki-seok explained the situation to his guardian and received consent for surgery.

All preparations are complete.

As long as Katarina comes, the surgery can be performed on time.

“Professor, he’s not in the hospital right now. He says it will take thirty minutes for him to come.”

“I’ll call you.”

Choi Ki-seok took over the call phone.

“Professor. This is Kiseok.”

[I heard the story. [The patient is suspected of having an aortic dissection?]

“It is now confirmed, not suspected. I just checked the test results and it is an ascending aortic dissection.”

[Ha… I got scolded.]

Katarina’s sigh could be vividly heard.

[I can’t help it. First of all, you three are undergoing surgery. If we leave now, we will be able to arrive by the time the bleeding area is treated.]

“I understand.”

As soon as the call ended, the call phone rang.

Jeremy reports that he is heading to the operating room after the examination.

“let’s go!”

Choi Ki-seok took the lead, flapping his gown, followed by Charles.

“We are operating on an aortic dissection patient on our own… Is this really okay?”

“I have to do it. If I want to save the patient.”

“I’m not saying this because I don’t know. The important thing is…”

“Charles. It’s true that this surgery is a daunting and difficult task at our level. But I think you can only become a real doctor by overcoming moments like this.”

“….”

“So let’s overcome this together. It’s not me, but we can do it.”

“You lose, you lose. Who in the world is going to stop you?”

Charles burst out laughing.

While they were talking, the two people arrived at the operating room.

Jeremy and the thoracic surgery intern were stamping their feet in front of Rosette.

“The patient’s condition is getting worse.”

“Let’s scrub and go right in.”

Buck. Buck. Buck. Buck.

The staff members who finished disinfecting entered the rosette all at once.

The surgeon performing the ascending aortic dissection surgery was Choi Ki-seok, first assistant, Charles, second assistant, and Jeremy, and third assistant intern.

“Patient monitoring device connection complete.”

“There is no problem with my treatment.”

“General anesthesia is over.”

Reports from the staff continued one after another.

Choi Ki-seok responded by nodding his head and clenched his fists vigorously.

Although it was my first aortic dissection, I was confident enough.

If you don’t trust yourself, who will trust you?

If you don’t believe in yourself and move forward, you will always be stuck.

“From now on, we will begin Benthal surgery and artificial blood vessel replacement for ascending aortic dissection.”

At his words, Jeremy disinfected the surgical site and covered it with a cloth.

“Meth.”

Choi Ki-seok was handed a scalpel by a sterilizing nurse and dissected the patient’s right axillary artery and thigh artery, exposing them.

“Please connect a heart-lung machine.”

“yes!”

Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

When the catheter insertion was completed, a mechanical sound rang through the rosette.
