General Hospital 2 – Final Summary (17)

Choi Jin Sang walking the corridors & knocks on the Kim Do Hoon’s door.

Kim Do Hoon: Enter

As Choi Jin Sang enter he bows in greeting

Choi Jin Sang: I have complete the suture

Kim Do Hoon checks on his workmanship

Kim Do Hoon: It is really done well, the even distance of the suture the material use well chosen

Choi Jin Sang: I wasn’t able to see the purpose of this exercise that I have to do it repeatingly. I am sorry

Kim Do Hoon: Now that you had found out, it is fine

Choi Jin Sang: That….Professor…your treatment.

Kim Do Hoon: It seems you all had already come to know about it.

Choi Jin Sang: Yes

Kim Do Hoon: I will accept. I will undergo the surgery

Choi Jin Sang: I don’t have such the ability just yet to do the surgery for you, I am really sadden by this

Kim Do Hoon: I understand what you are feeling right now. Jin Sang? You really dislike Professor Han Gi Tae. Do you know about the story of Professor Han Gi Tae when he was a resident, have you ever heard of it? He was really venomous, he doesn’t let go of a chance of practice even a moment of a second. No matter what the time is, he will practice his suture & drawing of blood. When he became a 4th year resident, before he sleeps each day he will suture on to his own blanket, the blanket change become another form. I also had taken some influences by it, so I could had finished my residenceship without any faults. Jin Sang? Your ability to have good relationship with the patient, whichever side you see, you have show that you had put in great effort. However if you don’t have the ability to save life, whatever other ability you have acquire is of no use. I wish that you will become the same likes of Professor Han Gi Tae, practice your ability to become a Doctor. If you can do this, you are an excellent doctor

Choi Jin Sang: Professor?

Kim Do Hoon: Fine!

Seo Yoo Na: Wah! So romantic!

Jeon Soon Deok: I feel it is a pity. I am feeling sympathetic towards Professor Song

Ma Sang Mi: What is there to be sympathetic? For her to make this kind of decision; it is not like any normal person is able to do? Although she is a woman, I really idolize her method of doing

Seo Yoo Na: Can we able to go & see?

Ma Sang Mi: Of course we have to

All: Congratulations….. Congratulations

Jeong Do Young to preside the engagement

Jeong Do Young: Since 20 years I have been teaching in this University hospital, there was once a student who arrived late. The student & I because of the late student, thought him a lesson by giving him anesthetic gas until he tear & nose was running. It is because pressure of studies, this medical student, has experience the route of life that many of us wouldn’t have these hardship experiences. As he enters to experience this hardship experiences, he will do this to his utmost best, so he is always the last one to leave the class. With this hardship, he had become a Doctor. He still doesn’t like to be like other people, either dares to venture surgery that people have no interest. Do the surgery that doesn’t need to perform. He will dare & go treat patient that other people might not want to take out. But in actual fact he is a fool & an idiot. But someone start to love this fool. How can someone be able to love such a fool? Then that person is more a greater fool. Today standing in front of me Kim Do Hoon & Song Hye Soo, it that fool that was before that had become a couple. Now this pair of fools is asking us a difficult question. What is this life have a sense of responsibility for each other? What is true love? I can’t give them a definite answer to that question

Choi Jin Sang tries to put on a strict front

Choi Jin Sang: Why is this group so late?

Choi Jin Sang: Sit down!

Yoon Jae Sang & Kim Ha Na then sit down

Choi Jin Sang: Sit closer…Yoon Jae Sang, Kim Ha Na?

Kim Ha Na: Yes

Choi Jin Sang: Pyeong Tae Ho? This person

Kim Ha Na: This person is not taking his calls

Choi Jin Sang waited for Pyeong Tae Ho. Pyeong Tae Ho comes strolling in as he bows to Choi Jin Sang

Pyeong Tae Ho: Ah! Yes

Choi Jin Sang: What time is it?

Pyeong Tae Ho: I don’t have a watch

Choi Jin Sang looks at his watch

Choi Jin Sang: You are already 30 mins & 8 sec late. How can you be late on your 1st day of reporting? Do you think that the surgical dept is so leisurely?

Pyeong Tae Ho: No!

Choi Jin Sang: If it is not then what? Don’t you wish to come here?

Pyeong Tae Ho laughs

Pyeong Tae Ho: Yes

Choi Jin Sang: You….If this repeat again…I will not accept you to the dept, do you understand?

Pyeong Tae Ho: If you don’t accept me, then I don’t need to come…Hello! You are Ha Na. isn’t it?

Choi Jin Sang: How can there be such a wretched? They really have such a kind of brat. Although I am not really something to say the least about, but I have never really met such a person

Park Jae Young: Didn’t you really reprimand him at all?

Choi Jin Sang: From my attitude I should have really teaches him a good lesson, how can I able to do so? I am going to slowly torture him nicely

Heo Woo Jin laughs

Choi Jin Sang: What are you laughing?

Heo Woo Jin: No, I just want to meet that person who had made you so angry

Pyeong Tae Ho in the staff room playing games & hearing on an IPOD

Choi Jin Sang: Oh! It is that person. Now you have seen him. Intern can have the time to play game in the hospital. They must be something wrong with his mind. If looks like he has more 100 times the substance than you.

Park Jae Young: How can the way of the world be this way? During the time in the hospital, we don’t even dare to utter a word to speak

Choi Jin Sang: What is just saying, we dare even step in to this staff room at all

Choi Jin Sang approached Pyeong Tae Ho who doesn’t even realise their presence

Choi Jin Sang: Yah

It gave Pyeong Tae Ho a fright

Pyeong Tae Ho: Just lower your voice & I able to hear you. This is a sensitive head phone. Do you have something to say to me?

Choi Jin Sang: Stand up!

Pyeong Tae Ho is much taller than Choi Jin Sang

Choi Jin Sang: Dr. Pyeong….Tae…Ho. What are you doing now?

Pyeong Tae Ho: Just as you are seeing it

Choi Jin Sang: I have been running in these parts of the hospital for a while. I have never seen a medical intern who comes to dept staff room to play games

Pyeong Tae Ho; There is still a lot of things in the world that you have not seen. I have been playing since

Heo Woo Jin: I am going to fainted

Choi Jin Sang: Do you really don’t want to work here?

Pyeong Tae Ho: What am I then?

Choi Jin Sang: Did you see it? Look at his face

Pyeong Tae Ho just strolls out without any concern

Choi Jin Sang: Yah! Stand where you are?

Choi Jin Sang is upset as Heo Woo Jin & park Jae Young is laughing

Heo Woo Jin: Yah! This matter looks serious

Park Jae Young: The heavens are finally giving you the retributions

Choi Jin Sang: What do you mean?

Park Jae Young: This is for the retribution of all the jinxes that you had done before

Choi Jin Sang: I am having such a headache & you people have the time to be kidding around. Oh! I am really upset that I can’t stand it

Jung Ha Yun is with her Senior after a case

Client: Thank you. If it wasn’t for you Doctor, our odds will have been difficult. I really want to thank you

Jung Ha Yun: What is there? The verdict came out good, I am also satisfied

Senior: Do leave first, we still have something to discuss

Client: Fine, then I will take my leave

Client leaves

Senior: Do you have some time to spare?

Jung Ha Yun: Today I am off from work

Senior: It is fine. Shall we go & have a cup of tea together?

Jung Ha Yun: Yes

Senior: You want to proceed to 2nd year of your residentship?

Jung Ha Yun: Yes, it had pass by so quickly

Senior: Do you want to continue at this? I feel that you should stop, this is really enough at it is. There is a law firm with really not bad terms & conditions. It allows you to go overseas to study & the salary is not bad either. If you don’t want to become a Doctor, you don’t need to continue further. Why don’t you resign now & then go to the States to further your law for a year, wouldn’t that be better?

Jung Ha Yun: Honestly speaking I have not given any decision to the matter

Senior: I don’t think that you will with that conditions you will enter the law firm to work. However the most important is that you have seen & learn in the hospital, as to us, it plays an important role in our cause. The medical malpractices cases are getting aplenty. The likes of lawyers like you are rare. So please return to something that you like to do in the 1st place & practice the law as you wanted to

Jung Ha Yun: I will give it some thought

Jung Ha Yun walks by a shoe shop

Staff: What shoes are you looking for?

Jung Ha Yun: It is not for me, I buying for someone else. Can I see this please?

Jung Ha Yun comes to visit Professor Kim

Jung Ha Yun: Professor?

Kim Do Hoon: Hmm!

Jung Ha Yun: I heard you will be discharge soon

Kim Do Hoon: Ah! Yes

Jung Ha Yun: This is a present to congratulate for your discharge. After you discharge, wear this shoe for your exercise. It is said that these shoes are good for your health

Kim Do Hoon: Fine. Thank you. Do you have something on that you are wearing like that?

Jung Ha Yun: Today I went back to the court. In a malpractice suit, I enter the court as to give some of my consideration to the case

Kim Do Hoon: Oh! How did it go?

Jung Ha Yun: My standards still able to help in the case, the verdict when really well. Professor? It looks like it time for me to leave this hospital. Although as a Doctor, I still have a lot of things to learn yet. But in the law I still need to gather more experiences quickly

Kim Do Hoon sighs

Kim Do Hoon: Although it is Dr Jung’s decision, there is no choice in it. It is really a pity. Frankly speaking, I really want you to become a successful Doctor. I think that your heart in treating the society’s weak & feeble; it is the same heart that you had rendered to this hospital’s patient. Please consider your decision well

Seo Yoon Na: Specialist nursing

Ma Sang Mi: Yes, in this busy situation, that she had studied hard to get her Specialist Nursing licence for hospice

Seo Yoon Na: Nurse Jeon, congratulations

Jeon Soon Deok: Thank you

Ma Sang Mi: You should also need to study. You must show the Doctors that we Nurses are also capable to assist them. You need to prove your own stand against the Doctors, that only things is to study

Seo Yoo Na: Yes

Choi Jin Sang comes to the Nurses station

Seo Yoo Na: Oh! Why are you so early today? Is something the matter?

Choi Jin Sang: Ah! I am in charge of the medical intern guidance & Tutoring

Seo Yoo Na: Oh! This is great

Choi Jin Sang: What is so great, it is my burden?

Yoon Jae Sang & Kim Ha Na comes in & greets Choi Jin Sang

Yoon Jae Sang & Kim Ha Na: How are you?

Choi Jin Sang looks at this watch

Choi Jin Sang: You are already 3 mins late

Yoon Jae Sang: We are sorry

Choi Jin Sang: Pyeong Tae Ho?

Yoon Jae Sang: We don’t know

Choi Jin Sang: Call him!

Yoon Jae Sang tries to call him as the nurses trying to keep a straight face in Choi Jin Sang’s authoritarian over the medical intern

Yoon Jae Sang: He is not picking his call

Choi Jin Sang: Aye!

Choi Jin Sang goes to the dorm to find Pyeong Tae Ho still sleeping

Choi Jin Sang: Yah! Yah! Aren’t you getting up?

Pyeong Tae Ho gets up

Choi Jin Sang: What is the smell, have you been drinking?

Pyeong Tae Ho: Yes

Choi Jin Sang: Are you going to prepare for diagnostic rounds?

Pyeong Tae Ho looks at his watch

Pyeong Tae Ho: There is still time left for that

Choi Jin Sang: Diagnostic rounds don’t need materials, are you going to prepare?

Choi Jin Sang stares at Pyeong Tae Ho

Choi Jin Sang: 5 mins to the nursing station, or else if not, then I will really shred you to bits, do you understand?

Choi Jin Sang bangs his head on the bunk bed. Choi Jin Sang leaves. Choi Jin Sang showed the medical intern to do dressing for the patient

Choi Jin Sang: When dressing, the most important is to avoid infection. In this there is something a little discomfort, here we need to apply the saline solution, after it is dampen; you have to change the dressing. If you had some pain, please raise it out to me

Choi Jin Sang removed the gauze. Pyeong Tae Ho is yawning & Yoo Jae Sang seems to have overcome his phobia

Choi Jin Sang: From now, each person go & look which patient you will be in charge. Who need their dressing to be change, just follow what I had showed you & change the dressing on your own, do you understand?

Yoon Jae Sang: Yes

Pyeong Tae Ho is rough with his dressing

Patient: Doctor! The place where the incision is really painful, it looks like it had been cut by knives. Please help me to take a look

Choi Jin Sang was looking at the distance

Pyeong Tae Ho: You had an abdominal incision; wouldn’t it be painful in that area?

Patient: Eh?

Choi Jin Sang had a word with Pyeong Tae Ho

Choi Jin Sang: The patient is crying in complaint to you that he is in great discomfort pain. Why didn’t you ask him the symptom reason on a problem?

Pyeong Tae Ho: It is because of the surgery, after a period, there will be a complaint on the wound pain. Finally because of bowel distention, this kind of crying pain is bound to have

Wound pain is pain experience in dressing change

Bowel distention is bloating that the bowel goes into a spasm

Choi Jin Sang: Fine. Then the source of that complaint where are you going to search for it? The source of that pain, you need to listen to the patient’s grievances only you be able to find where the reason lies. The patient had cry pain to you. Pain is rate from 1-10 scale. At which scale of pain is the patient in, have you listen to the patient’s feelings & expectation of pain?

Pyeong Tae Ho: No I didn’t

Choi Jin Sang: The source of pain showed is how is it that it is painful? Is it prickly painful or it is spasm painful, did you asked the patient?

Pyeong Tae Ho: No

Choi Jin Sang: Have you give a listen to the bowel sound?

Pyeong Tae didn’t answer. Choi Jin Sang gave a kick to the shin of Pyeong Tae Ho

Nurses are caught surprise

Choi Jin Sang: What? This kind of crying pain is bound to have? The patient is considered amount of pain & is that the Doctor’s answer to the complaint? You don’t even understand the basics. If you once again you don’t perform in front of me again to the standards, you are dead meat, do you understand?

Jo Yong Han: The new medical interns, how is the tutoring coming along? Is it well?

Choi Jin Sang: Ah! Really! Just enter a craze brat, that is giving such worries that it is driving me up the wall

Min Tae Hyuk: It is that seriously bad compare to you were? You brat

Choi Jin Sang: No, how can I be….I have driven someone to the stage to crazy

Oh Young Bum: Yah! Brat! It is because of you, that all of us had completely driven up the walls. You wretched brat

Choi Jin Sang: What….fine? I don’t deny that I am a jinx; however isn’t that all in the past?

Jo Yong Han: That is correct, I also think so, and you had really had improved a lot these days. Even if it is hard, we need to establish good foundation in their tutoring & guidance, or else there will be hardship later. Do well in your tutoring effort

Choi Jin Sang: I know

Park Ji Won comes to the staff room

Park Ji Won: Dr Jung Ha Yun!

Jung Ha Yun: Yes

Park Ji Won: I heard you were consulted in a medical malpractice suit, you have enter your professional argument in that suit

Jung Ha Yun: Yes

Park Ji Won: If this would have happened, shouldn’t you be reporting it to us? Come with me

Min Tae Hyuk: What is this? She wants to make Doctors difficult again.

Park JI Won: The Director of hospital of Yang do & complaint & lodge a protest to our Director of hospital. The Doctors are helping out each other, to conceal & cover up this matter. I too don’t wish to see this happening. However this had happened, it is better that you just report this directly

Jung Ha Yun: I am sorry

Park Ji Won: Asst Director is looking for you, go & see him. There should be a penalization

Park Ji Won leaves

Song Hye Soo: You want to resume work? Didn’t we say that when you discharge, we should go for a holiday?

Kim Do Hoon: I too had thought of that, it would be better to stay at the hospital

Song Hye Soo: Fine! Then we spent a holiday at the hospital then continue with the anti cancer treatment.

Kim Do Hoon: You should know that not what I meant?

Song Hye Soo: If you want to resume to work, it is impossible

Kim Do Hoon: There is a branch hospital Professor Lee Sang Min, 6 years ago he had intestinal cancer at 4th stage, to avoid reoccurrences he had 11 times had the anti cancer treatment & surgery, didn’t he accept it all & look where he is now? Even if he is that condition, he still earnestly continues to go on treating patients. I….if I want to battle this cancer to recover quickly, for the patient, it will show a great hope to them

Oh Young Bum comes in

Oh Young Bum: Dr Jung Ha Yun would be penalised

Choi Jin Sang: Do you really need to be penalised?

Oh Young Bum: Yes. It seems that the other hospital has express protest on to the matter

Min Tae Hyuk: In addition to what had happened the last time, this time it is hard to escape freely

Choi Jin Sang: That Ajumma, why does she always want to lead?

Jo Yong Han calls Jung Ha Yun

Jo Yong Han: Dr Jung? This malpractice suit, you enter your views as consultant in this case, I want to understand the situation…hmmm!….Oh Young Bum!

Oh Young Bum: Yes

Jo Yong Han: Gather all the surgical staff together for a discussion

Oh Young Bum: Yes

Jo Yong Han: Although Dr Jung Yun Ha & went to court to raise some of her views. It is a kidney surgery. It is just a simple resection open surgery of the calyces to remove the stones, then they accidentally severe the aorta, then cause massive internal bleeding. Now as we see it, any dissertation or review we will able to see, there is no evidence to mention that they are treating calyces of the stones in the surgery, it is due to the complication of the severe aorta that brought to death

Oh Young Bum: Malpractice?

Jo Yong Han: Dr Jung Ha Yun, this time in this case gave her medical consult. This is to debate the Doctor’s error of fault in diagnostic. The hospital because of this matter, it looks like they had decided to penalise Dr Jung for the matter. This is clearly stated in truth fact a medical malpractice, this is correct. I…affirm & acknowledge that Dr Jung that I see there is no reason for her to be penalise on the matter, moreover, I must confirm that this hospital stand in righteousness, I will bring out this debate

Jung Ha Yun: I am touched & move that you are willing to go to this extend for me. I feel that we shouldn’t be a need to exaggerate the matter to anymore complicate than it already is now. I now would like to leave the hospital

Baek Hyun Woo: When even there is a need to leave the hospital, I do affirm that Dr Jung shouldn’t be penalised for her action. She is our Doctor; she is stating her views on the case of malpractice. This is always the happened in our practices. However as what we have seen, there are discrepancies to the matter

Choi Jin Sang: That is correct, although all of us are Doctors but to conceal the truth of once faults is seen as belittle & cowardice

Heo Woo Jin & Park Jae Young: That is correct

Oh Young Bum: My views are the same as theirs

Intern: I also have the same view as them

Park Ji Won: Professor Kim Do Hoon wants to resume to work

Hwang Ji Man: His course of anti cancer treatment is not completed yet? He should take more rest isn’t that so?

Jeong Do Young: I had also persuade him but he is steadfast on his decision

Park Ji Won: I will not force him otherwise, so I have rearranged the schedule

Hwang Ji Man: If the person persistence is ever willing, that we can’t do anything about it. Right! The penalise of Dr Jung Ha Yun, the matter had been decided to dismissed her

Jeong Do Young: Ah! That matter

Hwang Ji Man: In addition to the matter of last, we can’t let this one go

Han Gi Tae reading as he is exercise his grip. Door knocks. It is Baek Hyun Woo

Han Gi Tae: Enter! Oh! Why don’t you exercise your hands? It will strengthen your hands ability

Baek Hyun Woo: Yes

Han Gi Tae: But what bring you here, is there something the matter?

Baek Hyun Woo: You by chance know anything of Dr Jung Ha Yun being penalised. Do you have a comment?

Han Gi Tae: Oh!

Baek Hyun Woo: I have some details that I need to disclose to you

Park Ji Won looking at the apparatus

Park Ji Won: Why until know that the tape had not been peel off? It has caused you a lot of discomfort. I will have the tape peel away at once; you will then feel a lot better

Patient: Thank you, Doctor…yes

Park Ji Won goes to reprimand Choi Jin Sang

Park Ji Won: Isn’t now already pass the time to have that tape peel off? Is that how you diagnose your treatment? The blood transfusion is not done properly, the wastage had not exceed 300cc. Why didn’t you take over the drainage tube?

Choi Jin Sang: That

Park Ji Won jab Choi Jin Sang at the ribs

Park Ji Won: Isn’t it painful…painful? Just think that in your abdomen had inserted a really large torn at your side, what are you going to do about it?

Choi Jin Sang: I will tried to extract it as soon as possible

Park Ji Won: What are the 1st year medical interns going to learn from you, if you are this way?

Choi Jin Sang: I asked to confirm the drain then had it removed

Pyeong Tae Ho: Yes

Choi Jin Sang: Then why isn’t it been removed? Come with me

Oh Yung Bum: Jin Sang, please go slowly…slowly on them

Choi Jin Sang drags Pyeong Tae Ho to a corner

Choi Jin Sang: Yah! Wretched brat, are you purposely making me angry

Pyeong Tae Ho: No I am not

Choi Jin Sang: What it isn’t, I clearly gave you instructions to do so?

Pyeong Tae Ho: It is because I had to prepare on other matter that I forgot about it

Choi Jin Sang: Yah! You idiot that you can forget…

Pyeong Tae Ho: I am not a Resident, how can I able to look after so many patients

Choi Jin Sang: Yes. When someone does things there is bound to have mistakes? But you….it are not mistake but no sense of responsibility. I am a person who doesn’t have much excellent capability either. If you showed some capability, I wouldn’t comment on it. The patient the way you treat them, I really can’t tolerate. You wretched brat, even when the patient dies, the patient wouldn’t blink twice, do you understand? Am I wrong that you are cold?

Choi Jin Sang: Cold?

Pyeong Tae Ho: I have just been in this hospital for 2 days, how can I grasp & well verse the patient’s medical condition. Ah! Don’t know what kind of freak are you?

Choi Jin Sang: What…freak? Ah! This wretched brat…you

Choi Jin Sang attempts to punch Pyeong Tae Ho…really

Jeong Do Young comes

Jeong Do Young: What is going on here?

Choi Jin Sang: Why this kind of people would ever what to be Doctors, I can really able to comprehend?

Jeong Do Young smiles

Choi Jin Sang: For the beginning, no matter how I tutor, I still can’t make him out?

Jeong Do Young: This matter, if the person doesn’t know himself, he will never able to change. You personally show that student towards the patient, see if it brings out some sincerity in him

Choi Jin Sang leaves Jeong Do Young’s office

Choi Jin Sang: Come with me. This is a terminal stage intestinal cancer patient. Although she had underwent anti cancer treatment but the illness continues to spread. Now all her excretion is bloc & is now a hospice patient. Now you are Park Hu Soo’s Doctor in charge

Pyeong Tae Ho: Why should it be me?

Choi Jin Sang: What is a medical intern? It is for you to just follow instruction & do it. If you & other interns learn the same things, you will never gain any practical, why should I ask for your consent? At this moment, you don’t need to care for other patients; I will not say anything to you. This patient, you need to look after her for 24 hours in your observation care. Firstly, the condition of the patient, you must able to understand thoroughly of her medical condition. Illness, Surgery, Drug dosage, all that are in the clinical history records, you need to be versed in it. You also need to consult with family member over the treatment stage of illness she is in

Pyeong Tae Ho: Do you mean that I need to give diagnostic order?

Choi Jin Sang: Of course. The 1st thing that anything should arise from the patient, should 1st inform you. Of course I will assist you but whatever the basic, you need to do it yourself. This patient, you will take responsibility for her well being, do you understand?

Pyeong Tae Ho: Must I really need to do this?

Choi Jin Sang: Need to!

Pyeong Tae Ho: I don’t want to. I don’t understand why I had to be so fast in taking care of responsibility of a patient?

Choi Jin Sang: I am giving you a last chance of an opportunity. If you are not willing, don’t stay in surgical, go somewhere else & look

Choi Jin Sang: Right! That patient is a DNR patient. If arise the situation of Arrest, don’t need to attempt CPR, do you understand?

DNR: Do not resuscitate A do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order placed in a person’s medical record by a doctor informs the medical staff that cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should not be performed. This order has been useful in preventing unnecessary and unwanted invasive treatment at the end of life.

Cardiac arrest is what happens when a person dies. The heart does not beat and breathing ceases, which starves the body of oxygen. Sometimes a person can be revived during the first several minutes after cardiac arrest. However, the more time that passes, the less likely it is that the person can be revived and, if revived, the more likely it is that brain damage will have occurred. Brain damage is likely if cardiac arrest lasts for more than 5 minutes, and death is likely if cardiac arrest lasts for more than 10 minutes.

Pyeong Tae Ho: Yes

Park Ji Won: The day after tomorrow we will enter a medical audit. If the person doesn’t need the standards, it would not be retained. This month, mortality conference, it will be held end of the week Friday. The next….the matter with Dr Jung Ha Yun’s penalisation. The Director of Hospital had decided….that to dismiss

Jo Yong Han: I oppose. The matter that Dr Jung gave her view on the case, we will like to have it review again

Hwang Ji Man: It already been decided by the Director of hospital

Jo Yong Han: The Professors all already know about the matter

Hwang Ji Man: Sit down!

Baek Hyun Woo: This is clearly seen that it is the Doctor’s error that results in the patient demise. If giving view on the case doesn’t under mind having to accept to be penalised for it. I stand firm there is a problem to the matter

Choi Jin Sang: If Dr Jung were to receive whatsoever penalisation, I feel that this going to be our hospital’s shame

Kim Do Hoon: I do concur with that comment. During my tenure as a medical practitioner, I have attended many mortality conferences but when it is remained to be seen as a malpractice, the conference can be taken as evidence, now we have seen a lot less of the cases. We should know better in ourselves as medical practitioner. If we can’t do it, then the other will reject, where we will have the reputation to say that we are here to save lives. It will become chaos

Han Gi Tae: I do concur to the comment with Professor Kim Do Hoon. Our hospital, if we had determined that it is an error of the Doctor, we will convey to the patient of their next of kin. Therefore we had already made the best effort. I do think this way it will not ruined the hospital’s image

Jung Ha Yun & Baek Hyun Woo goes to get some fresh air

Baek Hyun Woo: It will going to be all fine, please don’t worry

Jung Ha Yun: Frankly speaking today had made me feel moved & touched. It had been always that I had often feeling, that this is the feeling that it is the 1st time there was a sympathetic response

Baek Hyun Woo: This is because Dr Jung had changes their perspectives. If Dr Jung never existed, all of us will never now the significant meaning & purpose why we are all doing this occupation. Dr Jung had changed us all

Pyeong Tae Ho looking after Park Hu Soo as he changes her diapers

Pyeong Tae Ho: Grandmother, just you tolerate this a little longer. Why it isn’t been long since the last change, why are you putting so much out? Grandmother, now you can lie straight, please raises your lower body slightly, and then now please widens your legs.

Pyeong Tae Ho looks at the sick patients’ sad face as he changes her diapers. Cho Jin Sang taking a nap on the table as Baek Hyun Woo studies

Baek Hyun Woo: Jin Sang? If you want to sleep go & lie in the bed

Choi Jin Sang: I can’t. J-Jstomy (gastro-jejunostomy) I need to prepare the materials

Gastrojejunostomy with truncal vagotomy is the chosen procedure for Gastric Outlet Obstruction due to Peptic Ulcer Disease. It implicates an anastomosis (a short cut) between the stomach and the beginning of the small intestine (gastro-jejunostomy) and cutting of the nerve which is controlling the acid production of the stomach, the Vagus nerve (vagotomy).

Baek Hyun Woo: Why?

Choi Jin Sang: It is for Professor Kim Do Hoon to resume his work; I just want to prepare myself better to assist him

Baek Hyun Woo; Yah! For the sake of Professor Kim Do Hoon, I didn’t know you can work so hard to able come to this stage

Choi Jin Sang: This is my admiration & respect for the Professor, now he is no longer the patient, but still get me worried at times, what ma I to do?

Choi Jin Sang phones moos

Choi Jin Sang: Yes, I am Choi Jin Sang

Pyeong Tae Ho: Doctor, the patient Park Hu Soo’s condition is not stable. Her BP had dropped sharply. There are symptoms of cheyne stroke; there could be desaturation in the blood

Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR), a disorder characterised by recurrent central apnoeas alternating with a crescendo-decrescendo pattern of tidal volume, is relatively frequent in conscious patients after stroke. However, this respiratory disorder is, in general, not clinically detected probably due to slight intensity and scant clinical consequence.

Choi Jin Sang: Firstly stabilise the vitals

Choi Jin Sang runs to Park Hu Soo’s room, when he arrives, Pyeong Tae Ho frantically is doing chess compression. Seo Yoo Na is there to assist

Pyeong Tae Ho: Charge it, please

Seo Yoo Na: This patient is a DNR

Pyeong Tae Ho: We just need to revive the Ventricular Tachyca that will be fine…Quickly

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) refers to any rhythm faster than 100 beats per minute arising distal from the bundle of His. The rhythm may arise from working ventricular myocardium and/or the distal conduction system. VT may cause important symptoms such as syncope, palpitations, and dyspnoea. With a few exceptions, VT is associated with increased risk of sudden death. The most common setting for VT is ischemic heart disease, in which myocardial scar is the substrate for electrical re-entry. It is often, but not always, associated with hemodynamic compromise, particularly if the left ventricle is impaired or the heart rate is especially fast. When sustained VT causes signs or symptoms of diminished perfusion, emergent treatment is necessary.

Choi Jin Sang: The patient is in the situation under DNR, just let her go

Pyeong Tae Ho: No, I can, just give me a try…just this once…just…this…

Choi Jin Sang: Pyeong Tae Ho!!!

Pyeong Tae Ho still continue with his chest compression

Choi Jin Sang: Just let her go peacefully

Pyeong Tae Ho stops as he lets go his 1st patient he was in charge to go off peacefully. Pyeong Tae Ho quiet after losing his patient

Heo Woo Jon: It looks like she will not accept

Oh Young Bum: You brats

Park Jae Young: Let’s go

Oh Young Bum: This brats, just can’t stand the sight of them

Choi Jin Sang & Kang Eun Ji

Kang Eun Ji: How was he then? Pyeong Tae Ho!

Choi Jin Sang: I have alter him to become a human being

Kang Eun Ji: How did you do that?

Choi Jin Sang: Unexpectedly he suddenly had some virtue of ethics in him, to my surprise he is changing for slight improvement

Kang Eun Ji: What is that?

Choi Jin Sang: Slowly he will open to have a sense of sympathy for the patient’s suffering. That is already the basic that must be achieve

Kang Eun Ji: Close you eyes for a while

Choi Jin Sang: Why?

Seo Yoo Na was walking past & notices them

Kang Eun Ji: I just ask you to close them, so you just need to do it, close your eyes

Choi Jin Sang: Why?

Senior having a chat with Jung Ha Yun

Senior: Have you considered the offer?

Jung Ha Yun: Yes…It is…I decided to stay on

Senior: Then are you going to let go of the profession to be a lawyer?

Jung Ha Yun nods in affirmative

Senior: Aren’t you going to regret this?

Jung Ha Yun: No…in the hospital, there is a lot of things that need me to do. The lawyer if the suit was a win or a defeat, there is always another suit to take up or appeal again. For me as a Doctor, I can change the respective of the Doctors towards malpractice litigation to have a change of mind set. This time experience had help me to see that point of view. Medical malpractice, the final end result is that the patient no longer had any trust in the Doctors; it doesn’t require the use of the laws but the heartfelt feeling to overcome those obstacles. It looks like I am singing encores for the profession

Senior: To able to reach to this stage, it is really Jung Ha Yun. Fine! No matter when you are going to change your mind, please keep in contact?

Jung Ha Yun: Thank you, Senior

All: What is this?…..Yah! Why are you all being so professional?

Jung Ha Yun & Choi Jin Sang running at the corridors to meet the call as they enter the emergency dept

Footnote:

This brings back memories of ER the NBC drama that was aired in 1994 that still reruns in the Hallmark channel That brings to the a ripple effect with Japanese drama Emergency Room 24 hours with also had its trilogy starts Eguchi Yosuke & Matsushima Nanako. An all time favourite of mine, the last which tells the story of the Tokyo earthquake was moving for the staff & the patient who guest appears in the drama. General Hospital Season 1 which ran a successful season with many stars who had come to its shores. This had brought about to continue to have Season 3 with a later broadcast date. I hope this will prevailed as I seen the Korean drama are getting really stale in the scriptwriting department

The characters here are quite individual, Jung Ha Yun to is a aspired lawyer due to circumstances took the medical profession on vengeances & finally accepting the vocation as the medical practitioner as her decision to stay on being a Surgeon/Doctor. Choi Jin Sang, a small town boy trying to make it to a Doctor, with all the obstacles throw at him, but with a gift that having really patient bed side manners & also a Professor who was willing to take him on face value. Professor Han Gi Tae who now thinks that hospital should be run as a profitable management company rather than to look after patients. Choosing his patient so as not to ruin his track record, on the opposite we have Professor Kim Do Hoon who will try at all cause to save his patient even if there is a 1% chance for survival. It is pleasant to watched as they talked very much on general surgery while Surgeon Bong Dal Hee was concentrated on Cardiac surgery

I personally like medical drama on the whole. My mother is a retired Registered Nurse who worked in a Surgical ward for many years. When we use to play “Doctor Doctor” as a kid, we were quite accurate as my Mum will tell us how things are done in reality. But none of us ended up in the medical profession. It was also hard to get a medical chit from her to stay out of school. I also remember having former surgical instrument in the kitchen acting now as kitchen utensil. My mum even suture to mend my backpack

I really much await for Season 3 or the soon to be Cain & Abel that is about medical brothers as well; Look forward to that as well

I will bid adieu to this drama in which I had fun writing the summary. I do wish that they (the actors) will improve on their medical terms & getting their surgical instruments properly said
