Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: The Highest-Earning Income Yet

"Okay, then you help Master Liu first, I’ll go prescribe the medicine. He still needs to hang a bottle of fluid for inflammation." With a wound this long, not using antibiotics for inflammation would be too careless.

Li Jingsheng opposes the misuse of antibiotics, but definitely does not ban them.

In clinical practice, you still need to use them when necessary.

Even in a large hospital, after surgery, when the patient is pushed back to the ward from the operating room, the nurse would quickly follow the doctor’s orders and hang the prescribed fluid for the patient.

Postoperative anti-inflammatory and anti-infection treatment is routine medication.

However, the choice of anti-inflammatory drugs needs to be based on the type of pathogen infection, requiring a high level of prescription skill from the doctor.

If the wrong anti-inflammatory drug is used, it may fail to reduce inflammation, or even have adverse effects.

Li Jingsheng now has skilled pharmaceutical expertise, prescribing anti-inflammatory drugs is more than sufficient for him.

Postoperative anti-inflammatory treatment mainly involves medication targeting anaerobic and aerobic bacteria.

He not only ensures precision and efficiency in drug selection, but also skillfully controls dosage.

The benefits of his pharmacy and pharmacokinetics skills reaching a proficient level are constantly being realized.

Using the least amount and most suitable medication to achieve the ideal therapeutic effect is the ultimate pursuit of doctors.

Of course, his current level of prescription skills is more than adequate for dealing with simple diseases, but is somewhat lacking for complex or serious illnesses.

While prescribing, he quickly went through Master Liu’s overall condition in his mind.

A glass cut, if the wound is small, may not even require any anti-inflammatory medicine, as the human body possesses strong self-healing capabilities.

But with such severe lacerations, infection prevention is absolutely necessary.

Prophylactic medication is generally considered for around three days. Too short a duration may be ineffective, but too long can lead to drug resistance in the patient’s body, significantly weakening prevention capability.

Amoxicillin, roxithromycin...

The names of medicines quickly flashed through Li Jingsheng’s mind.

Ultimately, he chose to use ceftriaxone for Master Liu’s inflammation, combined with sodium chloride solution for intravenous drip.

Ceftriaxone and sodium chloride solution are considered an inseparable pair, most widely used clinically.

For safety, he still performed a skin test for Master Liu.

When using antibiotics, many require a skin test first.

Being cautious ensures longevity.

His small clinic is already struggling financially, with strong competitors watching in the shadows, ready to move.

If something were to happen, it would be utterly devastating.

The skin test was done without any allergic reactions.

The medication can be used.

"Tang Ping, the medicine is ready, you can give Master Liu the infusion!"

Li Jingsheng called out, quickly going to eat.

If another patient comes later, he might have to combine lunch and dinner.

The coworker called Master Shun was squatting outside the clinic making phone calls, seemingly looking for someone to replace Master Liu and help him with work.

Perhaps because Li Jingsheng himself lives at the bottom, the world he sees is one where everyone is trying hard to survive.

He just sat down and had two bites when Tang Ping came over.

"Is your food cold? Shall I heat it up for you?"

"No, no, just having something to eat is very satisfying."

Li Jingsheng felt her concern, and instantly felt very warm.

But thinking about Boss Zhao from Quick Recovery Clinic trying to poach her, Li Jingsheng was a bit worried.

He can barely pay salaries here, while Quick Recovery Clinic is bustling, with a stable work environment and presumably stable income too. If Zhao is poaching her, the offered salary must be higher than at Li Jingsheng’s.

This little temple may not hold onto her.

Thinking about the nurse who had been with him for over nine months leaving, Li Jingsheng felt quite sad.

After working together, a foundation of trust has been established, and their cooperation at work makes him very satisfied.

Now that his small clinic is finally starting to turn around, yet she’s being poached by a competitor, he’s definitely reluctant for her to leave.

If she really wants to go, Li Jingsheng wouldn’t hold her back, but it would be a shame.

"Boss, I ran into Boss Zhao when I was buying lunch today. He seems to know about you selling the motorcycle, and then asked me if your clinic is about to close. I didn’t reveal anything. Finally, he said to me, ’Seeing you as a woman with a child is so pitiful, come work at his clinic.’ But please don’t overthink, I’ve never thought about changing jobs."

She whispered as she proactively explained the situation to Li Jingsheng.

So Boss Zhao actually knew about selling the motorcycle! Is the old guy watching Li Jingsheng all day?
