Chapter 58: Competition, Stepping onto the Stage [Part-2]
“First, Silu, please check the items for missing components…”
“Second, Wang Qiang, verify the patient’s name, bed number, explain the purpose of oxygen inhalation to the patient, reassure them, and obtain the patient’s consent…”
With these two instructions from Lin Feng, delivered swiftly and calmly, he displayed a leadership aura and authority that caught the attention of the three judges: Zhu Zhi’an, Zhang Fan, and Liu Jian.
Feeling a bit guilty, Zhao Silu and Wang Qiang instinctively followed Lin Feng’s instructions and proceeded with the tasks as directed.
Once everything was done, Lin Feng stated, “The previous steps were just the preparation. Now, let’s move on to the procedural steps.”
“First, emphasize the importance of sterility, ensure everyone wears masks and caps, position the patient, and clean their oral cavity. Wang Qiang, your turn.”
“Next, install the oxygen delivery device, connect it to the patient, and adjust the oxygen flow rate. Zhao Silu, it’s your turn.”
“For the remaining steps, I’ll take over, including documentation, briefing the patient, ending the oxygen inhalation, and cleaning the patient’s face.”
After clear instructions, Wang Qiang and Zhao Silu followed Lin Feng’s orders, and Lin Feng performed the final set of actions. Following a seamless and fluid operation, the procedure was completed.
Lin Feng declared, “Three judges, we have completed the operation.”
Regarding the last two questions, Lin Feng answered, “First, the patient is experiencing an acute exacerbation of COPD and type 2 respiratory failure. Second, when administering oxygen therapy to this patient, we should use a low flow rate, maintain permissible levels of hypercapnia, and avoid respiratory depression.”
The countdown stopped at 3 minutes and 48 seconds (exceeding 4 minutes, deducting 1 point).
It was all over, and Zhang Fan nodded with a smile. This level of operation didn’t pose a challenge to Lin Feng; it was too trivial.
On the other hand, Zhu Zhi’an and Liu Jian looked at Lin Feng in astonishment.
What strong thinking!
What fast speed!
What precise execution!
The three judges took their scorecards and marked… swipe, swipe, swipe…
Scoring.
Overall score: 34 out of 35!
Points were deducted for the operation. Wang Qiang’s operation was not proficient, a bit chaotic, deducting 1 point.
Individual scores: Lin Feng 35, Zhao Silu 30, Wang Qiang 25. Next, the second question.
Lin Feng, Zhao Silu, and Wang Qiang entered the second examination room. There were three judges again, but Lin Feng didn’t recognize them.
“Prepare for the exam, 7-minute countdown… begin!”
The question appeared:
Task: Venipuncture + Blood Type Identification
Patient: Wang Li, female, 25 years old. Presented with purpura and bruising on the skin for one week and gum bleeding for one day…
Physical examination: …
Auxiliary examination: …
Question: Please provide a preliminary diagnosis for this condition. What type of blood component should be administered?
Provided items: Treatment tray, bending disc, cotton swabs…
This practical question wasn’t difficult, but the challenging part lay in the two questions asked.
Zhao Silu and Wang Qiang looked at Lin Feng, waiting for his instructions.
Without hesitation, Lin Feng gave his orders:
“Silu, you’ll perform the equipment check, verify the name and bed number, explain the procedure, and obtain the patient’s consent.”
“Wang Qiang, you’ll handle disinfection and positioning…”
“For the actual venipuncture, I’ll take over…”
After 3 minutes, the entire process was completed.
“Three judges, we have finished the operation!”
Lin Feng continued, “Regarding the question, my answer is: The patient’s condition is idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and platelets should be administered…”
The countdown ended at 2 minutes and 45 seconds (exceeding 3 minutes, deducting 1 point).
The three judges exchanged surprised glances.
Who is this student?
Which hospital did they study at?
They’re so talented!
They marked their scores…
Team score: 35 out of 35 (maximum)
Individual scores: Lin Feng 35 (maximum), Zhao Silu 30, Wang Qiang 30.
Moving on to the third, final question (30 points).
Lin Feng, Zhao Silu, and Wang Qiang entered the third examination room.
The question was: Scalp vein infusion in children.
After 4 minutes, Lin Feng and the others left the exam room.
Wang Qiang, who had been holding back his excitement, couldn’t contain himself and shouted, “Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!” Wang Qiang exclaimed excitedly.
“Lin Feng is awesome!”
“Oh my god, Feng ge… no, Feng dad, I didn’t expect you to be the real genius. You’re simply incredible!”
“I estimate that these three questions, totaling 100 points, will at least earn us 95 points!”
Lin Feng paused momentarily, then instantly understood, revealing a sly smile.
“Yes, we should be humble!”
Next, they had to wait. Lin Feng and the others retrieved their phones and started following the progress of other classmates.
The chat group had gradually become lively.
“Damn, impressive! The class monitors, Shen Qiu and Feng Yuya, estimated 93 points!”
“Based on previous years’ results, they’ve probably secured the first place as a team!”
“Champions!”
“Oh my god, I only estimated 75 points. Such a huge gap compared to the class monitors.”
“I estimated 78 points as well. The questions had too many details, and the time was too tight…”
“@Shen Qiu, @Feng Yuya, congratulations to both class monitors! After winning the championship, you’ll participate in the competition in the South China region and then the national competition… Aim for the national first place and enter the capital, following in the footsteps of Senior Zhu. We’ll look up to you!”
“Congratulations!”
The classmates in the group showered them with congratulations.
Shen Qiu: “Phew, it’s not announced yet. Maybe there are even stronger teams.”
Feng Yuya: “Even with 95 points, it’s not necessarily a guaranteed first place. Please spare me…”
Lin Feng watched Shen Qiu and Feng Yuya.
Shaking his head.
Tsk tsk~~~
These two are such experts at showing off. They truly understand the art of being pretentious.
I, Lin Feng, am more innocent. I don’t show off; I prioritize staying low-key.
