Chapter 386 Morality
Could this be Li Shi's passive skill?
Li Ang had a weird expression. After Li Leling took a seat at the back of the classroom, he coughed lightly, glanced at all the students, frowned slightly, and asked softly to Qiu Feng, "Why didn't Ouyang Shi come?"
Ouyang Shi is a girl of Western descent, and her grades have always been among the top in the whole grade.
"She took two days of sick leave, but today is the third day."
Qiu Feng replied in a low voice: "When the class is over, shall we go to her house and ask?"
"Um."
Li Ang nodded, ended the conversation, and said to the students in the audience: "Let's start class now, turn your books to page 109."
This class is an anatomy practice class, and the experimental rabbit is to be dissected. But before that, Li Ang picked up the chalk and wrote the words [Medical Ethics] on the blackboard.
"Who can tell me, what is the allusion that the "Xinglin Zhongren" used by doctors in the world to introduce themselves comes from?"
He turned around, put down the chalk, and asked lightly.
The students raised their arms one after another, and Li Ang randomly clicked on one of them to answer the question.
"Cough, a native of Xinglin, a reference to Dong Feng, a Taoist doctor of Fujian origin during the Three Kingdoms period. According to the "Shenxian Biography", Dong Feng lived in the mountains and healed people without charging money. Instead, he treated people who were seriously ill. Good patient, plant five apricot trees on the hillside,
For mild cured patients, plant an apricot sapling.
After several years like this, tens of thousands of apricot trees have been obtained and become an apricot forest.
Dong Feng posted a notice outside the apricot grove again, people who came to buy apricots did not need to notify, and they left a bucket of millet, and they would pick a bucket of apricots by themselves. He exchanged the apricots for the millet to help the poor and sick.
Physicians in the world respect his medical skills and ethics, and since then he has regarded himself as a man in the apricot forest. "
"Yes, please sit down."
Li Ang nodded, and let the boy who answered the question sit down, "Dr. Dong Feng's medical ethics are admirable, and he has been the object of admiration for all doctors for hundreds of years.
But there is always a gap between reality and ideal. Especially now that the ward is being innovated, future doctors (including you) will inevitably face more challenges.
This kind of challenge is not only in terms of medical skills, physical fitness, knowledge reserve, innovation and change, but also morality. "
Li Ang paused for a moment, "For example, a patient is plagued by various diseases and spends most of his life seeking medical advice. Even so, his health is still deteriorating and he lives in unbearable pain all day long.
Existing medical methods cannot cure his disease,
He was soon paralyzed in bed, unable to move, and finally he sincerely begged the doctor to feed him a quick, painless poison. ended his life.
If that doctor were you, would you choose to feed him poison? "
Li Ang looked around the classroom, many students were frowning and thinking silently.
Qiu Feng and Li Leling also frowned in thought.
"If no one raises their hand, I will order randomly."
Li Ang smiled slightly, raised his chin slightly, "Gu Xingming, you answer."
A frail young man stood up, rubbed his palms, and asked cautiously: "Mr. Li Ang, do you need to consider Yu Lu on this issue?"
The young man thought for a while and replied: "Then I will make a device, put the poison in a glass bottle, and connect it to the patient's mouth through a hose with a switch.
Tell him how the device works.
If the patient wants to die, he can use his tongue to open the switch at the end of the hose and drink the poison himself.
In this way, I will not be put in a murderous situation, and I can avoid possible legal punishment. "
"Ha, you boy."
Li Ang smiled, and said: "Then add one more condition. The day after the patient asked you to feed the poison, all his body parts including his tongue were paralyzed, and he was unable to give you any hints.
Or, the patient suffers from pain all the time and has a clear will to die, but his wife firmly opposes it.
In this case, would you help him? "
"I"
The young man opened his mouth, "Yes, or not?"
"Please sit down."
Li Ang waved his hand and asked the students to sit down, "After you take up your post, you will face various moral dilemmas every day and every month.
Two patients were sent to the emergency room at the same time. One was highly respected and well-known, and had made contacts and contributions to the State of Yu, but he was old and in critical condition. The other was very young. As a doctor, you can only give first aid treatment to one of them;
Or, in a newly married couple, one of the parties is suffering from a serious infectious disease, and the physician has this information, should the other party be informed when asked;
Or, when patients come to the ward for medical treatment, they always hope to be treated by experienced doctors, but young doctors must go through long-term practice to accumulate experience;
Or, your colleague is a highly skilled physician, and he made a low-level mistake in an operation, causing the patient to die of surgical complications.
You can choose to denounce him, and the consequence is that he will probably lose his reputation and never be able to work as a doctor again.
You can also choose to help conceal the truth, and the consequence is that he continues to serve as a doctor and help hundreds of other patients—but the family members of the dead patient will never know the cause of death. "
Li Ang said earnestly, "More and more complicated contradictions will run through your career as doctors, like ants moving a mountain, 1 draining your enthusiasm, fighting spirit, and ideals.
Among you, some of you may maintain your enthusiasm and stick to your ideals;
Some people will gradually become numb and regard themselves as a pure carrier of medical skills;
Some people will use surgery to make money, and use medical skills to seek benefits for themselves within the scope allowed by Yu Law;
I can't tell you what the standard answer is. In other words, there is no absolutely unified standard answer to these questions that can be practiced for thousands of years.
I just want to make one point—people-oriented, reverence for life. "
Looking at the stunned or thinking students in the audience, Li Ang sighed softly in his heart.
He believes that he is by no means a saint, and he cannot devote himself to the great cause of helping others like the benevolent doctors in the history books.
However, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Whether he likes it or not, he has already represented the image of the Imperial Medical Administration and holds the power to cultivate the medical system of Yu State.
You can only do good deeds, don't ask about your future.
Li Ang turned his head and glanced at Qiu Feng. The latter immediately understood and walked out of the classroom. After a while, a small cart full of rabbits pushed in.
