In the upper right corner of Zheng Ren's vision floated the System panel, which revealed the patient's details in bloody red.
An infection by Clostridium tetani. The diagnosis was confirmed.
This was… a tricky case.
Zheng Ren had been in the medical field for almost ten years inclusive of housemanship, but he had never seen or even heard of tetanus before this.
According to standard medical procedure, every trauma patient would be given an intramuscular injection of tetanus toxoid, but this was his first time witnessing an actual case of acute C. tetani infection.
Zheng Ren vaguely remembered a short explanation for treatment of tetanus in an inconspicuous corner of the surgery textbook.
Even so… He was reluctant to take over the case due to inexperience.
"Chief Physician Pan, have you treated tetanus before?" asked Zheng Ren.
