The Heart Episode 3 Recap
> The Heart Recap
Patient Zhang Bingxian came to the hospital with unbearable chest pain. Lin Yi examined him and strongly suspected a highly fatal aortic dissection (A-dissection). As the blood vessel could rupture at any time, Lin Yi had Zhang Zhen push Zhang Bingxian through the green channel for examination and instructed the operating room to prepare. Jiang Junling took over Lin Yi's outpatient duties and asked him to perform surgery on Zhang Bingxian, a procedure Lin Yi had experience with and welcomed.
Lin Yi explained the patient's condition and the risks of surgery to Zhang Bingxian's wife and daughter. From his daughter, Lin Yi learned that a few days ago, Zhou Xiaofeng had diagnosed Zhang Bingxian with coronary syndrome, observed him for just a day, and then let him go home. Lin Yi personally performed the surgery on Zhang Bingxian, finding the pericardium filled with blood. He remained calm and completed the operation meticulously.
Cui Jing and Jiang Junling watched the entire surgical process and praised Lin Yi's medical skills. Zhang Bingxian was taken to the intensive care unit, and Lin Yi provided detailed information about his condition to Fang Xiaoran. Zhang Bingxian's daughter complained that Zhou Xiaofeng misdiagnosed her father. Bai Ji clarified that Zhou Xiaofeng had correctly diagnosed coronary syndrome, concealed the pain of a ruptured back, actively requested discharge, and that Zhang Bingxian showed no symptoms of aortic dissection before leaving the hospital. Lin Yi raised questions about Zhou Xiaofeng's diagnosis, leading to a heated argument between Zhou Xiaofeng and Lin Yi.
Fang Xiaoran defended Zhou Xiaofeng, presenting authoritative literature to prove that the later occurrence of aortic dissection was unrelated to the initial diagnosis. Bai Ji showed CT scan results from before Zhang Bingxian's discharge. Lin Yi admitted his mistake in front of Zhou Xiaofeng, and Jiang Junling asked Lin Yi to explain the situation to Zhang Bingxian's family.
During the ward rounds in the intensive care unit, Zhou Xiaofeng learned about Zhang Bingxian's condition. Lin Yi, however, was unappreciative and sarcastic. Fang Xiaoran confronted Lin Yi, vigorously defending Zhou Xiaofeng. Despite this, Lin Yi remained unyielding. The hospital decided to fine Lin Yi 300 yuan, and Jiang Junling worried that he might refuse to accept it.
Zhou Xiaofeng regularly lectures interns. When some interns asked for leave to attend a lecture by Fang Qingzhu, Zhou Xiaofeng adamantly refused. After finishing a class, Zhou Xiaofeng received a message from Zhang Zhen about a trauma patient from the emergency room. The patient had a drastic drop in blood pressure due to a heart rupture. Zhou Xiaofeng rushed to the scene, learned about the situation, and immediately performed surgery. Lin Yi received a call from Jiang Junling while leaving the operating table, instructing him to assist Zhou Xiaofeng.
The patient was suffering from severe pericardial bleeding. Zhou Xiaofeng and the medical staff made every effort to stop the bleeding, and Zhou Xiaofeng asked Lin Yi to continue with the next surgery. Hearing that Zhou Xiaofeng had been busy for a day and a night, Fang Xiaoran brought breakfast to him. Despite leaving only a sandwich, Zhou Xiaofeng had not had a chance to eat when an ambulance brought in a patient named Zhang Yuxi. Fang Xiaoran hurriedly followed to assist.
Zhang Yuxi, a salesperson for an e-commerce platform, had collapsed due to continuous overtime. Her colleagues rushed her to Dongjiang Hospital.
