"Dr. Liu, another car accident. Two drivers and a pedestrian need to be admitted to our hospital. One driver lost consciousness at the scene, and so did the pedestrian who was hit. We suspect internal bleeding."
Liu Banxia was still contemplating the pregnant patient from earlier today when the dispatch nurse reported the latest emergency details.
"Three patients. Dr. Wei and Doctor Qi, take the two severe cases. Wang Chao, you take the less severe one. I'll be on standby for support. Prepare five units of O-positive blood," Liu Banxia said.
"I'll take the driver. Has the condition of the pregnant patient improved today?" asked Wei Yuan.
"Not yet. Her situation hasn't been very optimistic since she was transferred to the ICU," Liu Banxia shook her head.
"My biggest hope now is to stabilize her vital signs and let her family see her one last time. Then, we can perform a Cesarean section to deliver the baby safely. But it's a tough situation for both families.
