My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1608 654: Promoted to Vice Dean, Awakening Methods for a Comatose Patient (Part 3)
Previously on My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points...
Niu Lan, Han Changqing, Dr. Xu, and others all take him as the lead; any decisions are left to Zhou Can.
Time passes day by day.
Jiang Wei and Zhou Can have not given up on Mr. Song's treatment.
Because this is related to the future and fate of Zhou Can and Dr. Xu. Even Jiang Wei has inevitably been affected.
Together, they formulated rehabilitation training and nutrition planning for Mr. Song, with Zhou Can funding someone to help him with rehabilitation.
Fortunately, Zhou Can's Han Hun Pharmaceutical has started to turn a profit, and Golden Entertainment Interactive Company is also rising steadily, providing him with considerable income. The cost of treating Mr. Song is astronomical to ordinary people.
ICU treatment fees, even after insurance reimbursement, amount to four to five thousand yuan a day.
This amount is nothing to Zhou Can.
The Song family has never actively caused him trouble, though the Family Head has not actively seen him again.
Since Mr. Song's surgery turned him into a vegetative state, the Song family's attitude toward Zhou Can has been cold.
They probably harbor some resentment towards him.
One day, while Zhou Can was sleeping at home, Director Liu from the Intensive Care Medicine Department suddenly called.
"Dean Zhou, Dean Zhou, come to the hospital quickly, Mr. Song's brain signals have changed and suddenly became active."
It was 1:25 in the morning.
Although his head was a bit drowsy, hearing this good news dispelled his sleepiness immediately.
"Okay, okay, I'll come over right away."
He quickly rushed to the hospital, where Director Liu was waiting in the intensive care unit.
"Just a short while ago, Mr. Song's brainwaves suddenly became active; based on experience, this should be a sign of awakening."
Director Liu knows well that this patient is crucial to Zhou Can's future and fate.
Talking about Mr. Song's improvement, he appeared very excited.
"Now the brainwaves are calm. Did he experience any stimulation just now?"
Based on experience, Zhou Can knows that for a vegetative patient to wake up, external stimulation is usually needed, especially the influence and call of family affection.
Human emotions are very complex. In the depths of our mind and consciousness, there are the people closest to us, the things we care about the most. These are essential factors in awakening a vegetative person.
"We haven't given him any stimulation; rehabilitation training happens in the morning and evening, and at this time, apart from rescues, no other operations occur."
Director Liu shook his head.
"Could it be that the sound of music from outside caused the patient's brain signals to fluctuate?"
A young doctor beside them reminded.
Director Liu and Zhou Can's eyes brightened.
"There was indeed a faint sound of music that came in, it was the ringtone of a corpse worker's mobile phone."
It seems someone had passed away in the intensive care unit just now.
The mortuary worker would come promptly upon receiving notice to take the deceased away.
The hospital is quite lenient in managing mortuary workers; it's impossible for them to mandate silence from mobile phones entering the intensive care unit.
Even if told, they might not listen.
"What song was playing?"
Zhou Can asked excitedly.
"It seems to be… you can still lift me high — yes, that was the line."
Upon careful recollection, Director Liu confirmed.
"Let me check."
As Zhou Can prepared to investigate, a nurse turning over a patient interjected, "Dean Zhou, there's no need to check, I happen to know the name of that song, it's 'Thousand Loves'."
Women love to listen to music and are attentive, with good memory.
"Okay, thank you for providing this valuable information."
Zhou Can decided to play the song to try it out.
After downloading 'Thousand Loves' onto his mobile phone outside, and putting the phone in a sterile bag, Zhou Can brought it to the intensive care unit to play beside Mr. Song's ear.
The ability to hear music indicates that Mr. Song's auditory function is normal.
At least he has hearing.
"Look, look, the brain signals have started fluctuating again."
Director Liu was extremely excited, and Zhou Can was even more excited.
It seems this song has a significant impact on Mr. Song.
This song came out just two years ago, Mr. Song had his accident and was paralyzed ten years ago; he likely hasn't heard it.
It's likely the touching lyrics that resonate with Mr. Song's mind.
