Chapter 858 Fortunately, he lived up to his fate
The operating room was filled with an atmosphere so solemn that it was almost frozen. The light from the shadowless lamp was focused on the operating table, making the faces of Coleville and Mu Xiaoji look particularly solemn.
Their foreheads were covered with beads of sweat, which slid down their cheeks and soaked the edges of their masks, but their hands were always as steady as a rock, moving precisely between the instrument tray and the surgical site.
"Is Liang Boyu not back yet?" Mu Xiaoji's voice came through the mask, with a hint of subtle tension.
The scalpel in his hand was carefully separating the adhered tissues - the amount of bleeding during the operation was far beyond expectations, and the hanging blood bag was consumed twice as fast as expected.
The circulating nurse next to her quickly passed the hemostat around and responded urgently:
"No news yet! When he sent the last batch of blood bags in half an hour ago, he said that the blood bank's RH negative blood stock was empty.
We contacted Dr. Cui immediately to initiate the emergency blood transfusion process, and we are probably still working on it now.”
Mu Xiaoji paused, feeling inexplicably panicked: "It's already this late, why is there no movement?"
He glanced up at the hanging blood bag. There was very little liquid left inside. The bright red color was particularly glaring under the light.
"Notify the anesthesiologist to reduce the rate of fluid infusion first to minimize intraoperative bleeding until a blood source arrives."
Coleville also noticed the condition of the blood bag, frowned even tighter, and said in a deep voice to the instrument nurse next to him:
"Go out and check the situation outside and urge Liang Boyu. Mother Mu's condition can't wait, we must get the blood source as soon as possible."
The nurse responded and was about to turn around when Mu Xiaoji stopped her: "Wait, help me wipe the sweat off first."
The nurse quickly picked up the sterile gauze and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead. When it touched his skin, it felt burning hot, the temperature of extreme tension and physical exhaustion.
Mu Xiaoji took a deep breath and refocused his mind. He did not dare to relax his movements at all. Every time he cut, he was as precise as in a textbook and did not dare to make any mistakes.
In the corridor outside the operating room, Jiang Chengyu and Jiang Shuo stood side by side, their figures taller under the ceiling light.
Jiang Chengyu's fingers unconsciously rubbed the phone case, the screen brightened and dimmed, dimmed and brightened,
The warmth from my fingertips seemed to be sucked away by the cold metal, leaving only the raging waves in my chest, telling of the unspeakable anxiety.
Jiang Shuo clenched his fists tightly, staring at the tightly closed green door without blinking, his small body tensed like a fully drawn bow.
In the medical station, Cui Jiani and Liang Boyu were working with several doctors to contact blood sources.
The dispatch book on the table was already filled with the names of seven or eight hospitals, but all of them were marked "out of stock."
A nurse said quickly, "Hello, is this the Municipal Red Cross Blood Station? This is the emergency department of Renxin Hospital.
We have a heart bypass patient who is bleeding profusely during surgery and is in urgent need of RH negative blood. Do you have any emergency reserves or blood donor information?
Cui Jiani also held the phone with a slight force, and said in a sincere tone: "We have applied for the emergency blood transfer channel according to the procedures.
As long as we can coordinate a blood source, our hospital will cover all transportation and testing costs. Please also help check the recent blood donor records!"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then an apologetic voice came: "We checked the emergency bank and the blood donation records for the past week, and there is currently no matching blood type.
However, we have already sent an emergency help message to the blood donor community, and we will contact you as soon as we have any news! ” Before he could finish his words, the call was hung up, leaving only a busy tone in the receiver.
Liang Boyu gritted his teeth and immediately dialed the number of the Second People's Hospital, speaking so fast that he almost broke off into a continuous stream:
"Hello, is this the Medical Affairs Office of the Second People's Hospital? I'm Liang Boyu from the Department of Surgery at Renxin Hospital.
We have a patient with RH negative blood who is bleeding heavily during surgery. We have initiated the emergency blood transfusion process.
I'd like to confirm whether your hospital has a mutual aid reserve of this blood type? Even if there is only one unit, it can help us until the blood station coordinates! "
"I'm sorry, doctor. We checked the mutual aid bank and found that the last donation of this blood type was last month. The stock has already been used in other emergencies.
We've contacted the surrounding community hospitals for you and will update you as soon as there's any news!" The other party's response was also filled with anxiety.
Cui Jiani hung up the phone, stood up abruptly, and paced anxiously: "This is not a solution!
Liang Boyu, please continue to follow up on the news from the blood bank and mutual aid bank. If necessary, you can post emergency help information online.
At any cost! I'm going to the operating room to check out the situation and see what's going on inside."
She walked quickly through the corridor and came to the door of the operating room. She saw Jiang Chengyu and Jiang Shuo at a glance and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment:
"Cheng Yu, Jiang Shuo, why are there only the two of you? Where are Youyou and Dean Guo?"
Jiang Chengyu raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Have you found the blood source?"
"Not yet..." Cui Jiani's voice trailed off, filled with frustration. "I contacted several stores, but none of them have it in stock."
At this moment, the door of the operating room suddenly opened again, and the circulating nurse hurried towards Cui Jiani with an anxious look on her face:
"Director Cui! The blood on the operating table is almost gone. Doctor Liang has been out for so long, why hasn't he returned with any more blood? We can't hold on any longer!"
Cui Jiani took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and said in a deep voice: "Tell President Mu and Ke Laiweiler,
Tell them to hold on. We are searching for the source of the blood with all our might and we will definitely find it! Tell them to hold on a little longer!"
"Okay, Dean!" The nurse responded, turned around and rushed back to the operating room like a gust of wind. The heavy door closed again.
The inside and outside were separated into two worlds, leaving only the increasingly heavy silence in the corridor and the panic rising in everyone's heart.
When Jiang Chengyu heard Cui Jiani say that the blood had not been found yet, his heart sank again. With cold fingertips, he dialed Cao Guohua's number again.
This time, the phone was picked up after just two rings, and Cao Guohua's steady voice came from the receiver:
"Professor Jiang, thank you for your service! We have identified three soldiers who meet the requirements.
The required RH negative blood has been collected and is now rushing to Renxin Hospital as quickly as possible. It is estimated to arrive within ten minutes.
Jiang Chengyu's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, his face instantly showing uncontrollable excitement and relief, his voice trembling:
"Really? That's great! Professor Cao, thank you so much! Be sure to be careful on the road, please!"
"Don't worry, we are driving a military vehicle and the journey will be smooth." Cao Guohua's voice exuded reliability and strength.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chengyu told the news, and Cui Jiani and Jiang Shuo cheered instantly, clapping their hands excitedly:
"Yeah! Grandma is saved! That's great!" The heavy atmosphere in the corridor finally dissipated a little, and there was a ray of hope after surviving the disaster.
It seemed as if God also favored kind-hearted people. Not long after, hurried footsteps were heard at the end of the corridor.
Cao Guohua was wearing a military uniform with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. His assistant Xiao Huo followed behind him. The two of them carefully held an incubator and trotted to the door of the operating room.
Liang Boyu had been waiting nearby. Seeing this, he immediately went over to her, took the box, and walked inside without saying a word.
There are still fine water droplets on the outer wall of the box, and inside is the hope of life.
Jiang Chengyu stepped forward and shook hands tightly with Cao Guohua. The warmth of his palms conveyed a thousand words, which ultimately turned into just one sentence: "Professor Cao, I cannot express my gratitude enough!"
Xiao Huo smiled and said, "Professor Jiang and President Mu have been helping people and saving lives every day, and have accumulated a lot of merit. Ms. Mu is blessed with good fortune, so she will naturally be able to turn misfortune into good fortune."
Time passed in the anxious waiting, and Jiang Chengyu endured another three hours accompanied by Cao Guohua and Xiao Huo.
The glaring red light at the door of the operating room finally went out with a "click".
Jiang Chengyu suddenly jumped up from the bench and rushed to the door, his heart pounding in his chest, eager to know about Mu's mother's condition.
Cao Guohua also stood up, walked to his side, patted his shoulder gently, and soothed his restless heart with his calm aura.
With a "crash", the door of the operating room was opened from the inside, and a group of medical staff came out pushing an operating table covered with a white cloth. Mu Huiying was lying on it, her face pale but her breathing was steady.
Jiang Chengyu immediately stepped forward and grabbed Coleman, who had just taken off his mask. His voice was tense with anxiety: "How is it? How is Mother Mu now?"
Coleman took off his sweat-soaked gloves, made a soothing gesture, and spoke in a tired but firm tone:
"Don't worry, Mama Mu's surgery was very successful, and the bypass went smoothly. As long as she gets through the infection period, she'll be fine."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise at the door of the operating room. Everyone turned their heads and saw Mu Xiaoji just walked out of the door.
His body swayed violently, his eyes blurred, and it was obvious that he could no longer hold on. He subconsciously reached out to hold on to the door frame, but missed, and fell to the side.
"Xiao Ji!" Jiang Chengyu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He rushed over almost instinctively and hugged him firmly in an instant.
Jiang Shuo also screamed and rushed over, shouting loudly: "Dad! Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Chengyu quickly reached out to help Mu Xiaoji take off the mask on his face so that he could breathe more fresh air. When his fingertips touched his skin, it felt burning hot.
Mu Xiaoji opened his eyes weakly and saw Jiang Shuo in front of him. His lips moved as he murmured:
"Jiang Shuo... why... are you back..." As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes went dark and he completely fainted.
Cao Guohua stepped forward, stretched out his hand to feel Mu Xiaoji's pulse, and then flipped his eyelids, and made a professional judgment:
"Boss Mu fainted due to prolonged high stress and severe physical exhaustion.
It's not a big deal. Hurry, send him to the ward, give him oxygen, and give him some nutrient solution to replenish his strength."
Jiang Chengyu didn't wait for the nurse to come forward, and directly picked up Mu Xiaoji horizontally. His body was very light, and it was obvious that he had been out of shape due to the long period of time.
Jiang Chengyu held him in his arms and followed closely beside the stretcher, following Cui Jiani as they quickly walked towards the elevator. Jiang Shuo followed closely beside them, his little face full of worry.
The elevator door slowly closed, isolating the noise outside and carrying this family who had gone through many twists and turns to the ward full of hope.
The night was like a thick piece of inky velvet, slowly covering the entire city. The lights in the lobby of Renxin Hospital shone through the glass curtain wall, casting a warm halo on the open space in front of the door.
Jiang Chengyu accompanied Cao Guohua and Xiao Huo out of the hall. The evening breeze blew with a little coolness, blowing up the loose hair on his forehead.
The three of them walked side by side to the military vehicle, the body of which shone with a calm metallic luster in the night.
Jiang Chengyu stretched out his hand again and shook hands tightly with Cao Guohua. The warmth of his palm dispelled the chill of the night.
He had a genuine smile on his face and spoke in a sincere tone, "Professor Cao, I will never forget your kindness today. Have a safe journey, and I'm sorry I can't see you off."
Cao Guohua patted the back of his hand, his eyes gentle and powerful: "Just rest assured to take care of Mother Mu and President Mu in the hospital,
If you need anything here, feel free to call me. We're leaving now, bye."
"Goodbye." Jiang Chengyu responded, took a step forward, opened the back door, and made a "please" gesture.
Cao Guohua nodded in greeting, bent down and got into the car. Jiang Chengyu gently closed the door for him with steady movements.
Xiao Huo, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned around, waved to Jiang Chengyu, and said with a smile, "Professor Jiang, we're leaving. Take care."
"Be careful on the road." Jiang Chengyu also waved his hand.
Xiao Huo started the car, the engine made a low and steady roar, and the military vehicle slowly started.
It drove out of the hospital gate smoothly, its taillights drawing two red light tracks in the night, and gradually disappeared in the traffic.
Jiang Chengyu stood there, looking at the direction where the car was going away, until he could no longer see it, then he slowly turned around.
He took a deep breath of the air that smelled of disinfectant, turned around and quickly returned to the inpatient department - there, there were people waiting who needed his protection.
