Chapter 939 -940: He Ran Away! (Extra 3 for Alliance Hierarch Tiger Walking Cat Steps)
The rest on Saturdays and Sundays allowed Chen Cang to relax his tense nerves.
When a person balances work with leisure, their thinking tends to become more divergent, and they can imagine more thoughtful things.
Chen Cang didn’t understand computers, but in his mind, a computer should be a powerful computing tool.
The complexity of the human body necessitates reliance on a high-intensity computer for calculations to obtain certain data.
Chen Duo wasn’t a medical student, but her thoughts weren’t shackled by medical discipline either.
She dared to imagine whether an electrocardiogram was a kind of regular waveform and whether it was possible to use a computer to analyze the heart’s past ten days or even longer ECG signals to then speculate about the next few days.
This was a kind of bold and proactive thinking.
Even if the experimental results yielded failed data, it wasn’t a true failure in the real sense.
The human body, any signal, always has its signs.
Predictive medicine and cutting-edge medical research had always been the directions of study.
For example, the levels of homocysteine were high-risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
So, if metabolites could predict the future course of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular conditions,
then predictive medicine wasn’t without a viable path.
Chen Duo’s thinking opened up Chen Cang’s horizon.
Chen Cang was a doctor, and his medical thinking was relatively stable, but he lacked interdisciplinary thinking and capabilities.
The society increasingly needed interdisciplinary talents now because the intercrossing of multiple disciplines could promote the development of each discipline.
This made Chen Cang feel that medicine wasn’t an isolated discipline, but rather should strengthen connections with various industries.
Take, for example, “Computer Simulated Gastrointestinal Reconstruction Technology.”
This was just an idea, and failure was normal, but what if it succeeded?
In science and research, the least thing to fear was failure!
However, at the same time, Chen Cang set a goal for himself deep inside: he must elevate his professional status and influence.
Only then would cooperation become possible.

If he went to Capital University of Technology now and found a professor at their computer center, or even the academicians, and said, “I want to do this,” most likely their response would be a polite smile. Even if they wouldn’t discourage him, they wouldn’t accept the project either!
But what if he stood at the forefront of the industry?
Not to mention anything else, just like Wu Tongpu, the Academy President who was a double-academician, if he said he wanted to cooperate with you, people’s thoughts might be about how to make it happen!
That’s fundamentally a big difference.
At this moment, Chen Cang took a deep breath, feeling that he really should improve his professional status and increase his influence.

Mondays were busy. After two days of adjustments, they had to return to work.
The morning was hectic with ward rounds, changing prescriptions, medications…
Even though they had dedicated attending physicians, he still needed to do his own work.
And only by observing the patients personally could he truly get the full picture of their conditions, including post-operative recovery, any adverse reactions, and so on.
Being a doctor was definitely not just about performing surgeries but encompassed all sorts of tasks.
Around ten in the morning, a man with a round face hurried in, exclaiming as he entered, “Doctor… quickly, quickly, my stomach hurts!”
Nurse Yang Jie quickly rolled out a bed to help the man lie down.
She then went to call for a doctor.
Chen Cang was right there and immediately headed out.
Seeing the man, he approached and asked, “What’s uncomfortable?”
The round-faced man was somewhat chubby and not very tall, but he was plump all over.
“My stomach hurts? It suddenly started to hurt badly when I was at work today!”
Hearing this, Chen Cang immediately locked onto several possibilities of acute abdominal pain and continued to inquire in detail about his medical history.
“The pain radiates toward my shoulders and back, and… I also feel my entire lower back is very uncomfortable!”
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang quickly nodded, “Sister Yang, take him to the emergency room and get an ECG to check his condition.”
Yang Jie nodded.
Acute myocardial infarction can cause symptoms similar to abdominal pain, and an ECG doesn’t take much time, rather than guessing now, it’s better to just do one to know for sure.
As soon as the man heard this, he immediately objected, “I… Why should I have an ECG?”
Sister Yang explained soothingly, “This condition can also appear in patients with a heart attack, we must rule it out.”
Years of experience in emergency had enabled Yang Jie to handle many situations independently.
Hearing Yang Jie say this, the man nodded and stopped struggling.
The ECG results came back quickly, showing some myocardial ischemia, but it wasn’t the cause of the abdominal pain.
Chen Cang asked, “Are you feeling nauseous or have you vomited? Have you had any diseases before?”
The man shook his head, “No, I just suddenly got a stomachache this morning, I had gallstones before, but it hasn’t been an issue since.”
Chen Cang nodded, “Let me check your stomach.”
As he spoke, Chen Cang began gently pressing on the man’s abdomen.
With Chen Cang’s pressing, the man cried out in discomfort.
Chen Cang considered, signs of peritoneal irritation were present, and there was significant abdominal tenderness.
The tenderness was in the upper abdomen, and with a history of gallstones…
Could it be pancreatitis?
With this in mind, Chen Cang said, “We can’t be certain what it is right now, we need to complete the examination, such as an abdominal ultrasound and a CT scan. Take it easy for now, my current suspicion is that you’re experiencing acute pancreatitis, but since we haven’t done all the tests, I can’t make a definitive diagnosis yet, we need to complete the tests to see.”
Upon hearing pancreatitis, the man couldn’t help but ask, “Is pancreatitis serious?”
Chen Cang spoke frankly, “Yes, it’s a relatively common acute abdomen condition, with a high incidence rate. Eighty percent of cases aren’t serious, just simple edematous pancreatitis that can be treated with medication. The key is to complete the tests to determine if it’s serious.”
“If it’s more serious, then surgical treatment will be required.”
Relieved, the man said, “Oh! Let’s get it done quickly!”
Chen Cang made a call to the CT department and asked Yang Jie to take the patient for the tests.
After fifteen minutes, Yang Jie came back alone.
Chen Cang was taken aback, “Where’s the patient?”
Yang Jie said, somewhat amused and helpless, “He ran off.”
Chen Cang was stunned, “Ran off? What do you mean?”
Yang Jie explained helplessly, “When we got there, he suddenly told me the pain was gone, then he got up and wanted to leave.”
Chen Cang was taken aback as well.
However, in the emergency department, you meet all sorts of people, so this wasn’t too out of the ordinary.
It was just a bit troublesome since emergency patients could usually skip the queue; Chen Cang had given notice, only for the other party to just walk away nonchalantly, leaving both Chen Cang and the radiologist feeling embarrassed.
Nevertheless, Chen Cang sighed, “This was somewhat too hasty, if it’s acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis, it would be terrible if he couldn’t make it back.”
Chen Cang wasn’t joking; the mortality rate of acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis remains high at 30%–60%, and it can lead to various serious complications, posing a severe challenge to doctors.
