Chapter 306 Reversal of the Burden of Proof
"Lu Chen, I remember, you asked me to wash my hands after seeing the patient. Did you think of this a long time ago?" Xiao Lin suddenly said.
"I just had some doubts at that time." Lu Chen said, "There is no problem with one handsome guy showing up, but two of them showing up at the same time and behaving intimately, we still need to be careful. Besides, our working environment is special, and we are required to wash our hands immediately after seeing the patient."
Xiao Lin nodded slightly.
Although the HIV test results of the two patients have not been released yet, it has reminded her.
In this world, flower lovers need to be cautious!
...
After Lu Chen sent the patient with "acute myocardial infarction" to the CCU, he still paid attention to the changes in his condition.
The emergency department's system cannot see the patient's medical records, but fortunately the entire cardiology medical record system is interconnected.
Lu Chen logged into Sun Guoguo's account and entered the medical record system of the cardiology CCU.
He quickly found the patient's bed number.
Check the patient's medical instructions, and the surgical instructions have been issued.
"It seems that he has entered the operating room."
Lu Chen clicked on the operation-related records and found that the patient had two more ventricular fibrillation on the operating table.
"If he can still be saved, he is really lucky."
At this time, there was a sudden burst of rapid noise outside the emergency room.
Cheng Peng ran into the doctor's office from outside, panting.
"The family of the myocardial infarction patient is here to make trouble!"
Lu Chen frowned. The patient was still in the CCU for rescue, and they started to make trouble here?
At this time, Wang Xiaodong was seeing other patients in the emergency room.
Lu Chen stood up and said, "Fatty, go to the rescue room to find Brother Wang, I'll go see first."
Walked out of the emergency doctor's office.
At the nurse station in front, Lu Chen saw four middle-aged people, both men and women.
The leader was a middle-aged man. He put his left hand on his waist and pointed at the nurse in front of the nurse station with his right hand. He kept yelling and cursing.
Lu Chen walked up and saw that he looked a bit like the patient. He should be the patient's brother.
At this time, the head nurse of the emergency department has appeared.
She stood in front of the nurse station and kept communicating with the patient.
The middle-aged man was very excited and his voice was very loud, as if he wanted to attract the attention of everyone around him.
"What kind of broken hospital is this? You take human life lightly, right? My brother came in the morning, and you let him go!"
"Don't get excited first, we have something to say slowly..." The head nurse tried to comfort the middle-aged man in front of her.
"Don't get excited! My brother is in the intensive care unit for rescue! How can I still be calm?" The man glared at the medical staff in front of him, and his eyes wanted to eat everyone.
Several men and women beside him also kept echoing, accusing Jinghua Second Hospital of how bad it was.
Seeing this, Lu Chen immediately stepped forward.
This patient was admitted by their group, and it would be best for them to come forward to solve it themselves.
Although the head nurse is the leader of the department, she is not very clear about what happened at the time.
"Hello, I am one of Liu Mao's emergency doctors." Lu Chen said, staring at the people in front of him without any hesitation.
"You?" The middle-aged man turned to look at Lu Chen and sneered, "You are just a kid. I want to see your director. Hand your director over quickly!"
"If you have any opinions about our diagnosis and treatment process, you can raise them at any time, or directly complain." Lu Chen said in a deep voice.
The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "My brother was diagnosed with myocardial infarction in your hospital this morning. You didn't care about anything and let him go. Aren't you taking human life lightly? Aren't you quacks?"
"We have fully informed the patient and his family of the condition. The patient himself refused hospitalization and surgical treatment." Lu Chen continued.
"How did you communicate? My brother is just an ordinary citizen who knows nothing about medical knowledge. How can he know whether the disease is serious or not?" The middle-aged man asked back, "It must be that your hospital did not inform him fully and the prognosis of the disease was inaccurate, so he let my brother go. This led to his current rescue. You, Jinghua Second Hospital, have an unshirkable responsibility!"
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows. This patient's family has something, or there must be a master behind the scenes.
If the patient's condition was not fully disclosed and the assessment was not in place, the hospital must bear the main responsibility.
However, these family members obviously made a wrong calculation.
Before the patient left the hospital in the morning, Lu Chen and Wang Xiaodong had asked him to sign the outpatient medical record, indicating that he refused hospitalization and surgical treatment.
Every outpatient or emergency patient will have a medical record book.
All treatment processes in the hospital will be written in the medical record by the doctor.
Lu Chen said seriously: "The patient has signed the outpatient medical record and refused to be hospitalized!"
"Oh? Outpatient medical record? We didn't see this thing." The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows.
Cheng Peng, who was standing aside, was a little anxious when he heard this.
"When the patient left, he still had the medical record in his hand!"
"But we haven't seen this medical record now. Just listening to what your hospital said is empty!" The middle-aged man stared at Cheng Peng without showing any weakness, obviously coming prepared, "What evidence do you have to prove that you have communicated with my brother? Don't forget the inversion of the burden of proof in medical treatment!"
In general civil and criminal cases, a "burden of proof" clause is followed.
In other words, whoever makes the claim must provide evidence.
In simple terms, if I claim that you are guilty, I must produce certain evidence to prove your guilt.
However, in medical disputes, there is a special clause, that is, "the burden of proof is reversed".
Due to the limitations of the victim status of the patient, it is impossible or difficult to provide evidence.
Therefore, the law stipulates that patients do not need to provide evidence, but doctors need to provide evidence to prove their innocence.
When no evidence can be provided, the fact will be inferred according to the established results, thus putting the patient in a more superior position.
A gleam of light flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.
This group of family members is really not a simple trouble!
Ordinary people must not know the rule of "the burden of proof is reversed" in the law.
At this time, Wang Xiaodong finally finished dealing with the emergency patient and came to the nurse station.
He stepped forward, UU read www. uukanshu.net stood in front of Lu Chen and protected him behind him.
"I am Liu Mao's attending doctor. If you have anything to talk to me..."
Wang Xiaodong winked at Lu Chen and the other two and asked them to leave first.
The head nurse was also clearing out irrelevant personnel.
"Let's go, let's go back to the office." Lu Chen turned around and said to Cheng Peng and Xiao Lin.
"But, this..." Cheng Peng hesitated.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Wang Xiaodong has encountered more of this kind of thing in the emergency department than we have, he can handle it." Lu Chen said in a deep voice, "We are still in the way here, let's go back."
"Okay." Cheng Peng nodded.
Lu Chen and the other two returned to the doctor's office.
About twenty minutes later, the noise at the nurses' station finally subsided.
