Chapter 13 3. Dereliction of duty: the "indifference disease" of medical staff

A doctor who lacks medical ethics has ruined a child and a family.This family has fallen into a desperate situation... This is a sad and indignant medical accident reported in the 11th issue of the magazine in 1997—— At about 7:00 p.m. on April 25, 1992, Tian Bin, the deputy dean of the law department of Shanxi University, and his wife Zhang Lingling were preparing a meal at home, and were about to go out to find their son to go home for dinner, when they suddenly heard the children downstairs shouting: "Uncle Tian, ​​your roc has swallowed the pen cap!" Tian Bin became anxious as soon as he heard it, and rushed downstairs to take a look, only to see his 8-year-old son squatting on the ground, scratching his throat with his hands, short of breath, and his face turned pale.Seeing that their son was in serious condition, Tian Bin and his wife pulled their bicycle over, rushed out of the school with their son on their backs, threw the bicycle away, stopped a taxi and rushed to the hospital.

Tian Bin rushed into the hospital with the child in his arms, and the doctor who registered was also anxious: "Hurry up and run with the child, just leave one person to register!" Tian Bin rushed into the ENT department with the child in his arms, and an intern prescribed a X-ray.In the X-ray room, the son spoke again: "Father... I'm going to suffocate, save me..." Tian Bin held back his tears and was about to speak, but the X-ray doctor comforted the child and said, "Don't be afraid, call me later." The doctor can clamp it out for you with pliers."

The results of the photo came out quickly, and the intern doctor who made the bill saw it and knew that the situation was serious, so he went to the doctor immediately.The doctor on duty at this time was named Ren Yuzhang, but at the moment he left his post and was watching TV at home not far away.Just as the intern explained the situation, Ren Yuzhang said unhappily: "There is no bed, we can't save them, tell them to go." This was the first big mistake Dr. Ren Yuzhang made: tracheal foreign body is an emergency in the emergency department, and it should be treated against time. This is common sense that every otolaryngologist understands. Ren Yuzhang is still the director of this department!

At this moment, the child's uncle came, and after begging for more than 20 minutes, Ren Yuzhang slowly put on his white coat, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards the duty room with an unhappy expression on his face.On the way, the child's uncle begged Ren Yuzhang to walk faster, but Ren rolled his eyes, ignored him, and kept walking at his original pace. The child's condition became more serious. He struggled out of his father's arms, jumped up and down, and his face was blue.Seeing Ren Yuzhang approaching, Tian Bin hurriedly said to the child: "The doctor is here, you are saved." At this time, the child raised his face, looked at Ren Yuzhang with tears in his eyes, and said hoarsely: "Uncle, save me quickly... ...I'm going to participate in the school sports meeting..."

Ren Yuzhang didn't even enter the door, and leaned against the door frame, without looking at the child, and said, "As I said, there is no bed, so you go." As soon as Tian Bin was obedient, he quickly lowered his head and said to his son, "Tell the doctor, where is the pen cap stuck?" The son pointed to his throat and wanted to say something, but he only watched his mouth move and could not hear any sound coming out. Seeing that Ren Yuzhang was still indifferent, Tian Bin said: "The doctor in the perspective room said that you have a mirror imported from Japan. You can see it with a mirror, and you can clip the cap out of the pen." Ren Yuzhang said: "It doesn't work if you see it. Come out? I don’t have a bed, let’s go!" Tian Bin asked: "Doctor, the child is like this, where do you want us to go, and you don’t care if there is any danger?" Ren Yuzhang said impatiently: "Where do you want to go?" I don’t care where I go, I don’t care if it’s dangerous!” Seeing that the child’s eyes were closed, Zhang Lingling knelt down in front of Ren Yuzhang and said, “Please, save my child…”

And Ren Yuzhang kept his hands in his pockets, and he didn't want to talk anymore. ——The angel in white who rescued the dying and healed the wounded still made the choice of not saving the dying in the face of the kneeling family members of the patients! In desperation, Tian Bin and his wife had no choice but to carry their son out of the Provincial People's Hospital. Just as the child's aunt arrived in a taxi, the family hurried to the car and went to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical College (now Shanxi Medical College) The First Affiliated Hospital of the University) rush.Five or six minutes after the car drove out, the child in Zhang Lingling's arms suddenly went limp and stopped breathing.Listen to the child's chest, the heartbeat is gone.There was a burst of crying in the car.

When we arrived at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical College, Director Wang Binquan of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology was in the ward. Hearing the news, he sprinted over at a speed of 100 meters.He knew the consequences of foreign bodies in the trachea, and he knew that he couldn't delay for a second.Director Wang Binquan ran too fast, and fell heavily at the door of the emergency room, and the upper of the leather shoe broke a hole.He got up and continued running.The situation was extremely critical. Dr. Wang Binquan took the child and put it on the floor. He grabbed a razor blade—the ordinary blade he used to shave. Ordinary pliers took out the pen cap that had been stuck in the child's throat for more than an hour.Because the time of suffocation was too long, the wound did not even bleed.

"Artificial respiration immediately!" Dr. Wang Binquan ordered, and a group of doctors surrounded him. After 20 minutes, the child's heartbeat gradually recovered, but he was still not breathing.Dr. Wang Binquan handed Tian Bin and his wife a rubber ball connected to a hose, and the other end of the hose was inserted into the son's trachea.Dr. Wang asked to pinch 16 times a minute, no more and no less.After pinching for 12 hours, the child's breathing slowly returned to normal, while the couple's fingers were swollen. His life was saved, but a bigger disaster struck: the child became a vegetative state due to long-term lack of oxygen in the brain.Since then, this originally happy family has fallen into an abyss beyond redemption.The sudden disaster crushed everyone in this family.Little did they know at the time, this was just the beginning of a black movement.

The son became a vegetative state, his hands were clenched tightly, his body was stiff, and there was no rule about when to sleep and when to wake up.The hardest thing is that the son can only sleep peacefully for a while in the arms of his mother.So, from the first day of the disaster, Zhang Lingling held her son in her arms and sat upright with her back against the wall, night after night, year after year.The son stayed in the hospital for three years, and Zhang Lingling sat holding her son like this for three years.The wall she was leaning on was worn down by her to reveal a clear figure from the back.On the wall at home, there is also the same smooth and clear silhouette of a human figure.

What is even more tear-jerking is that Zhang Lingling has gradually developed a habit that is close to supernatural powers: after her son fell asleep, she fell asleep after only a few seconds. Come…… The son cannot eat on his own.According to the doctor's request, Zhang Lingling used a 50ml thick needle to push the nutrient solution from the nasal feeding tube. If she was not careful, she would choke her son.With such a thick needle tube, Zhang Lingling deduced that there were four of them.Later, the child no longer needed nasal feeding, so Zhang Lingling chewed the food with her mouth and fed it to her son mouthful, just like an old swallow feeding a young swallow in its nest.

The son has to keep receiving treatment.The poor, unconscious son had to insert seven infusion tubes into his head every time he was treated; when he was treated with acupuncture, more than 30 silver needles were inserted into his little head. The stagnant water, but the mother on the side felt like a knife... My son was afraid of taking traditional Chinese medicine since he was a child, and he ran away when he smelled the medicine. Now, no matter how bitter the Chinese medicine juice is poured into his mouth, he doesn't even blink his eyelids, let alone make a sound.The heart of a mother is so uncomfortable that she weeps while feeding.Tian Bin said: "For so many years, our children's injections and medicines can't be finished by a Dongfeng car." Five years later, Dapeng has grown to be as tall as his mother, but his legs are as thin as arms, and his arms are as thin as hemp sticks.Neighbors and friends couldn't help crying every time they saw Dapeng lying in his mother's arms with long hands and long legs, dragging his thin legs on the ground... Besides, his son looked like a young man , but inadvertently pulled feces and urine all over the crotch of the mother, which is fine in summer, but troublesome in winter. There are not so many replacement clothes, and I am afraid that my son will freeze, so often my mother does not change for several days. Clothes and pants, just like this, are wet on the body, but the son's body is always dry. The thing that makes doctors and neighbors cry the most is that, with desperate hope, the mother has been calling to her son all the time for five years: "Dapeng, wake up, mom is calling you!" What! Dapeng, wake up, did you hear your mother calling you? Dapeng..." In order to wake up the child as soon as possible, Tian Bin went to the northeast and went to Tibet to seek medical advice.In the past five years, Beijing has been the place he has traveled the most. When he was most nervous, he would travel once a week, often calling back and forth on the same day. Dr. Ren Yuzhang's dereliction of duty by refusing treatment, delaying the timing of rescue and causing serious consequences aroused strong righteous indignation in Taiyuan City.More than 20 days after the incident, the main leaders of the Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital where Ren Yuzhang worked went to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical College to visit Tian Bin, his wife and their children.Zhang Lingling cried and asked: "We have no grievances with you, why can't you rescue us? Why did you kill us?" At that time, a female discipline inspection secretary of the Provincial People's Hospital held Zhang Lingling and cried, saying: "It is entirely our responsibility. We have to educate other doctors and deal with Ren Yuzhang, he has disgraced us!" However, the result of the processing was only: suspension for inspection, and persuading him to transfer away. This is tantamount to opening the net to the malfeasant who has no medical ethics and letting him slip away.Sure enough, not long after, Ren Yuzhang's family disappeared from Taiyuan, and no one knew where they went.When he showed up again, he was already the director of the otolaryngology department of a hospital in Hainan, with a high salary, and lived in a four-bedroom house, which was very beautiful and dignified. Just because the unethical doctor Ren Yuzhang refused to treat him, the happy family fell into endless disasters.As for Ren Yuzhang, in the past five years, he did not admit his mistakes to the victims caused by him alone, and he did not even say "I'm sorry", let alone go to visit. The disaster continues.From the day of Dapeng's accident on April 25, 1992, Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital, the unit responsible for the accident, has been bearing Dapeng's medical expenses.The continuation and awakening of vegetative life requires a lot of money.A hydrocephalus injection costs 180 yuan, and it needs to be injected once a week.From April 1992 to August 1993 alone, the Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital paid more than 176,000 yuan for Dapeng's medical expenses. However, in September 1993, the Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital filed an application with the Provincial Medical Malpractice Appraisal Committee, requesting a medical malpractice appraisal to clarify responsibilities.One year and five months after the incident, only based on the perspective results and unilateral report of the Provincial People's Hospital, the Medical Accident Appraisal Committee of Shanxi Province made an appraisal: the incident was a medical accident and did not constitute a medical accident.According to this identification, Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital immediately stopped paying medical expenses.Since then, Tian Bin's family has been in a desperate situation. A child loses the chance to be rescued due to the negligence of the doctor and becomes a vegetable. Isn't this an accident?Professor Tian Bin, who specializes in law, can only sigh to Tianchang: What kind of appraisal is this? On November 8, 1993, Tian Bin filed a lawsuit with the Shanxi Provincial People's Procuratorate, accusing Ren Yuzhang of dereliction of duty.In order to ensure that the child could continue to be treated, Tian Bin sued the Provincial People's Hospital and Ren Yuzhang to the court on the grounds of personal compensation, demanding that they pay the medical expenses. On June 15, 1996, the Taiyuan Intermediate People's Court publicly heard the case, but Ren Yuzhang did not appear in court. In May 1997, the judgment of the first instance came down, and the court held that: according to the appraisal conclusion of the Shanxi Provincial Medical Malpractice Appraisal Committee, the medical dispute did not constitute a medical malpractice; the plaintiff’s request for the defendant to pay a huge amount of compensation has no basis in law, and this court does not support it; However, the defendant has a certain responsibility for causing the plaintiff's personal injury, so the 176,000 yuan paid by the defendant to the plaintiff should be recognized. After receiving the verdict, Tian Bin appealed immediately. The most discussed topic among Taiyuan citizens is: Can bedlessness be a reason for refusing treatment?Why can the second hospital use a razor to complete the operation on the floor, while the Provincial People's Hospital at the same level has such good equipment, but the doctor Ren Yuzhang can't treat patients?Since "foreign body in the trachea" is an emergency in the emergency department, why can Dr. Ren Yuzhang refuse treatment and push critical patients out of the hospital?If a doctor doesn't even have basic medical ethics, and the law still protects such a person, then how safe is the patient? The child was disabled for life because of Ren Yuzhang's intentional delay in treatment. This is a fact that no one can deny.From this case, we once again found that any negligence or slack in the work of medical staff will cause lifelong regrets for patients and their families. "Procuratorial Daily" reported on May 1, 1999: At around 9 o'clock on November 8, 1996, 19-year-old Yang Jingang's left hand was accidentally strangled by a noodle twister. At about 11 o'clock, he was sent to Yucheng People's Hospital for treatment. The outpatient clinic initially diagnosed it as "open fracture of the left ulnar and fluke bones". At about 11:20, Yang Jingang was admitted to the second surgical ward.But it was not until 3 o'clock in the afternoon that he was pushed into the operating room.The operation was delayed by more than three hours. Seven days after the operation, Yang Xiuzeng found that his son's arm hadn't improved, his fingers began to turn blue, and he lost consciousness. On November 15, Yang Jingang was transferred to Shandong Keyuan Hospital.Diagnosed by an expert during consultation, the muscle and soft tissue near the wound were extensively necrotic, and the fixation plate was exposed.After many operations, although the arm was saved, all four fingers of Yang Jingang's left hand except the ring finger had to be amputated, and the remaining ring finger was also numb, and his arm suffered from chronic osteomyelitis, and there are still two small holes. Pus kept coming out.Yang Xiuzeng successively applied to Yucheng City and Dezhou City Medical Accident Appraisal Committees for appraisal, and both appraisal departments believed that it did not constitute a medical liability accident.Yang Xiuzeng refused to accept it, and applied to the provincial medical malpractice appraisal department for appraisal.The Provincial Medical Malpractice Appraisal Committee identified that: Yucheng People's Hospital had poor management, violated the responsibility system of first-diagnosed physicians, failed to deal with patients in a timely manner, and delayed treatment. On March 16, 1999, the commission issued an appraisal conclusion, affirming that the matter was a secondary medical liability accident. Finally, there was a fair statement, but Yang Jingang lost one of his left hands forever. This is such a painful and sad thing for a 19-year-old man. On April 5, Yang Jingang filed a lawsuit against Yucheng People's Hospital to Dezhou Intermediate People's Court, demanding that the hospital compensate him for 12 items including medical expenses, post-disability medical expenses, nursing expenses, and lost work expenses, totaling more than 530,000 yuan. . Yang Jingang only lost one hand, and many others lost their lives due to delays by medical staff. On February 1, 1993, "Yunnan Daily" published a letter from Cao Zhongxiang, the second motorcade of Yunnan Sinotrans Company, under the title "She Shouldn't Die Like This", reflecting such a tragedy that shouldn't have happened—— At 22:00 on December 8, 1992, I took my girlfriend Zhang Li to see a doctor at the People's Hospital of Guandu District, Kunming City.I went to the registration office and asked, "Which department should I go to for appendicitis?" The female registrant replied, "Internal medicine." I called the emergency number, and helped my girlfriend to the internal medicine clinic. Said: "This disease needs surgery." I had no choice but to help my girlfriend to the second floor according to the doctor's instructions. At that time, the power on the second floor was cut off, so we went up to the third floor.The doctor asked: "What disease?" I said: "It may be appendicitis." "Go to the second floor to see." We turned back to the second floor, and a male doctor wearing glasses asked: "Have you been tested?" My girlfriend went to the laboratory, but after searching for a long time, I couldn't find the laboratory technician.At this time, my girlfriend started to vomit and couldn't even stand up.I even helped her to go to the internal medicine department. A doctor was very enthusiastic and said after the examination: "It may be appendicitis. You should hurry up and go to the surgery department." I helped my girlfriend to come to the surgery with difficulty.I told the male doctor wearing glasses, "She was in pain and vomiting. The physician said it might be appendicitis." He replied loudly, "How did you know it was appendicitis? You read it for her yourself. Where's the medical record?" I hurried to the registration office and shouted for a while before a lesbian answered sleepily: "Sold out." I had to go back to the surgery, and the doctor said bluntly: "There is no medical record, what do you want me to do?" See a doctor?" I repeatedly stated the danger of my girlfriend's condition, and the doctor said impatiently: "You go to the obstetrics and gynecology department." When I helped my girlfriend to the obstetrics and gynecology department, I saw a man and a woman standing at the entrance of the first floor. The two young men, a woman and a woman, were chatting and laughing, and the doors of the consulting room were closed. I couldn't find the doctor even after knocking on the doors of three rooms.I had no choice but to support my girlfriend and return to surgery. The doctor wearing glasses disappeared, and I shouted loudly: "Doctor, doctor, I'm dying!" After shouting for a long time, the doctor was nowhere to be seen. A female nurse sat in the room and ignored me. I lost my temper. I punched and smashed the glass sign that said "office" hanging on the door. I shouted for a while, but still no doctor came out.With tears in my eyes, I supported my girlfriend and finally returned to her dormitory.At this time, it was already 0:30 the next day.I boiled water for her, and at 1:23, I greeted her female partner in the same dormitory before I left. At 6:45 on the 9th, Zhang Li's companion hurried to find me, and saw Zhang Li shouting: "It hurts! It hurts! It hurts too much!" I hurriedly found a car and rushed to Kunming Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Rescue measures were taken, but the person was dead. According to the investigation by a reporter from Yunnan Daily, the situation reported by Cao Zhongxiang is basically true.Zhang Li was only 21 years old when she died. She worked as a temporary worker in the canteen of the Sinotrans Company for a month before her death. People all felt sorry for her when they heard the sad news of her death. For the medical staff who save lives and heal the wounded, what is more important than saving the lives of patients?However, some people, although they also wear white coats and hold stethoscopes, do not perform the basic duties of medical staff.The indifference and numbness to life have reached an intolerable level. A reader’s letter published in the "Health Daily" on January 9, 1990, "Vocation is hard to beat TV addiction", can be called an anecdote in the medical field: "A fellow villager told me that on a weekend last month, his son had acute Appendicitis, I was admitted to a certain hospital and needed immediate surgery. The doctor on duty said: "There is a good TV show on Saturday night, we will not perform surgery." Fortunately, the dean was present, and he said: "If you don't have surgery today, the child will die !' Under the urging of the director, the doctor on duty had to operate on the child reluctantly. Human life is at stake. As a doctor, it is shocking that he has such a TV addiction!" How could it be shocking and indignant to ignore the safety of patients just to watch TV? Such reckless disregard of human life is not only unworthy of being a doctor, but also unqualified for being a human being! A medical scientist said: The emergency department is the front line of medical treatment. The emergency department work is directly related to the safety of the masses. Hospitals and medical workers should not take it lightly. But now in many hospitals, the emergency department is only urgent for patients and family members of patients, while some emergency doctors are calm and not in a hurry. Too lazy to get up... The patient asked for help and ignored it, and the patient's family members knelt down and ignored them, showing a posture of indifference and indifference.In their eyes, the pain and life of patients are just symbols in medical books and specimens in the herbarium.They are the ones who carelessly fiddle with these symbols and specimens! A terrible state of mind, a terrible behavior, must produce terrible results.Looking through the medical malpractice files, we are not without pain to see that many people died because of the delay of the doctor, because of the doctor's numbness, or because of the doctor's refusal to save them, and because of the doctor's helplessness... There was a middle school teacher over half a century old who suddenly became bedridden during her husband's business trip.Her husband's colleagues heard the news and immediately sent her to a local general hospital for emergency treatment. It was a Sunday, and the doors of all the outpatient departments of this hospital were closed. Although the emergency room could be entered, there was no one in the room.Ask the nurse in the registration room: "Where is the doctor?" Answer: "I don't know." Ask her to find a doctor, and she says: "Where can I find it?" Ask her to borrow a phone, and she says: "No loan." Escort The staff could only go to the public telephone booth outside the hospital and call the general duty room of the hospital for help.From the time the patient was sent to the emergency room to when the nurse inserted the infusion needle and treated the patient, the patient waited 27 minutes.If the female teacher is not suffering from Meniere's syndrome, but a heart attack, a cerebral hemorrhage, what will happen to the 27-minute delay?The emergency doctor's answer was: "How can it be such a coincidence? I see a lot in the hospital." This is not a coincidence, but something that often happens.Generally speaking, emergency patients are in critical condition, and any delay will lead to irreparable tragedy. A journalist once had such an experience: one evening, when he was returning to work at work, he accidentally fell, and his left knee was smashed by the hard edge of a granite step, and blood gushed out from the wound, which was 2 cm long and half a cm deep.During the treatment in a hospital, he never saw the emergency doctor on duty. He was treated by two interns who had not yet graduated from university and obtained the qualifications to practice medicine.Generally, wounds are contaminated to varying degrees, and debridement must be performed in time, and tetanus antivenom should be injected to prevent tetanus.If necessary, X-rays will be taken to check whether the bones are injured.The two interns did not have these common senses, and they had to bandage the wound without cleaning it. They only thought of needing a tetanus shot after being reminded by the wounded, and finally said in an affirmative tone: "It's only a superficial wound." Let him go.Half a month later, the wound healed, and when the gauze was removed, a callus the size of a pea protruded from his left knee. The "Hospital Emergency Department Construction Plan" issued by the Ministry of Health clearly stipulates that "the first task of emergency work is to treat and rescue emergency and critically ill patients in a timely, rapid and accurate manner", and "emergency rooms should be open 24 hours a day and can be consulted at any time" , "Emergency physicians must have more than three years of clinical experience, and interns are not allowed to be on the emergency class alone", "Emergency conditions are often complicated, and the key is to be serious and responsible."Such rules and regulations related to human life have been blatantly trampled on by some hospitals and medical staff. With the development of modern medicine, emergency medicine has become an independent emerging discipline, and most hospitals attach great importance to the construction of emergency rooms.However, in a small number of hospitals, the emergency room is useless, the emergency system is a mere formality, and the emergency medical staff are not serious and responsible in their work, which seriously threatens the lives of patients.The main reason is that these hospitals are neglected management.Some one-sidedly emphasize the heavy workload and arduous tasks of the emergency department, and forgive themselves for their lack of work. Some even "open their eyes and close their eyes" when they see doctors and nurses who do not seriously implement the rules and regulations, and use a lot of objective words to deal with the outside world. Reason, to push the blame completely.Some health administrative departments also lack sufficient correct understanding of emergency work.When checking the rules and regulations of the emergency room, we only listen to the report and do not look at the actual situation.After discovering a problem, downplay it lightly and make corrections indefinitely.All these are the important reasons leading to the lack of emergency. At midnight on November 14, 1998, Lu Zengyan, a retired cadre living in the dormitory of Xintian County Shengzi Company, suffered a heart attack. His second son, Lu Xinling, heard the news and called the emergency center of Xintian County People's Hospital with his mobile phone at 00:01:09. He told the staff on duty his father's condition and address, and asked for emergency treatment.The person on duty promised: "Come right away!" At 0:07:04, the emergency center was still waiting for someone. Lu Xinling called the duty room of the emergency center again, and the person on duty replied: "Here we are." There was still no one from the emergency center at home, so Lu Xinling called the emergency center for the third time, and the person on duty said: "The car has gone." A few minutes later, the car and people from the emergency center were still missing, so Lu's family had to call Xintian County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine for help. The timing of rescue was delayed, and the old man Lu Zengyan died at 1:00 on the same day. On January 10, 1999, Lu Zengyan's wife, Tan Aiyun, and her four sons filed a lawsuit with the Xintian County People's Court on the grounds that the serious dereliction of duty of the Xintian County People's Hospital staff was the direct cause of the patient's death, demanding compensation of more than 120,000 yuan .The hospital refused to pay compensation on the grounds that the ambulance was blocked by a coal truck. The court found that the emergency center opened by Xintian County People's Hospital is a special service institution, and the patient's address is only 400 meters away from the emergency center of the People's Hospital. The behavior caused the patient's personal and property damage, and the defendant was ordered to compensate the plaintiff 14,000 yuan according to law. Although Lu Zengyan could not be brought back to life, justice was finally sought. However, Lei Hongming from Kunming lost his chance to be rescued because the emergency elevator in the hospital did not respond to the emergency. So far, no one has taken responsibility, as if it was his fate. At 3:00 p.m. on February 21, 1998, Lei Hongming suddenly vomited blood at home. The panicked family members hurriedly called "120" for help, but because the phone couldn't be reached repeatedly, they sent him to a place closer to his home in desperation. City Yan'an Hospital. The patient stopped breathing 12 hours later. On May 20, Lei Hongming's family members raised three questions to the hospital: 1. The patient was sent to the emergency department at 4:00 p.m., and the medical staff only gave him an infusion, and no other measures were taken; 2. At around 7:00 p.m., the emergency department notified the patient's family to transfer to the third department in the inpatient department. On duty, it was delayed for more than an hour; 3. It was sent to the inpatient department at around 10:00 p.m., only blood transfusion was given, but the patient broke free from the needle being infused, and the medical staff stopped the infusion because they could not find the blood vessel.Does this involve medical malpractice? According to a report by "Southern Weekend" on July 3, 1998, Yan'an Hospital issued a written reply on the same day, diagnosing the cause of death as "liver cirrhosis, massive bleeding from the upper gastrointestinal tract, hemorrhagic shock, and circulatory failure." Afterwards, the diagnosis was clear, the treatment measures were in place, and the rescue of the patient was not delayed.” As for whether the stop of the elevator delayed the rescue, the hospital has repeatedly stated that the two have nothing to do with each other and do not need to be involved in the answer.Some hospital administrative staff believe that the elevator problem does not belong to the scope of medical malpractice identification. It is understood that it is not the first time that the elevator has been stopped in the hospital.The husband of a primary school teacher in Kunming was sent to the emergency room of Yan'an Hospital on the morning of March 5 due to dyspnea. At noon, he was transferred to the cardiopulmonary department upstairs in the inpatient department. The cardiopulmonary department was unable to provide treatment because the two departments were not well coordinated. Therefore, the patient was about to be sent back to the emergency room. At this time, the emergency elevator was unattended, and the medical staff hurriedly searched for the elevator staff. During the waiting period, the patient suddenly went into shock.The elevator stopped for a total of 40 minutes. During this process, all the doctor could do was observe the heartbeat with a stethoscope.The patient died after being sent to the emergency room.This incident was less than half a month apart from the Lei Hongming incident. At present, Lei Hongming's family members have submitted an application for medical malpractice identification to the Medical Affairs Office of the Kunming Municipal Health Bureau, and have decided to hire a lawyer to discuss with the hospital to the end.At the same time, they are also full of worries about the prospect of negotiations.They know nothing about medicine, and it is very difficult to find out the unreasonable and wrong places in the various explanations of the hospital. Moreover, according to the regulations, the family members of the patients cannot consult the original medical records.Therefore, their whole family must invest a lot of manpower, material resources and time. At least until today, no one knows whether the 29-year-old Lei Hongming should die, but he died anyway. Hospital elevators are also life-threatening elevators!
