I Can See Health

  Chapter 310 Inversion of the burden of proof

   "Lu Chen, I remember, you asked me to wash my hands after seeing the patient, did you think of this long ago?" Xiao Lin suddenly asked.

"I was just suspicious at the time." Lu Chen said, "It's okay for a handsome young man to appear, but two people appear at the same time and behave intimately, so we still need to be careful. Besides, our working environment is special, and it is required to see patients after seeing them. , wash your hands immediately."

   Xiao Lin nodded slightly.

  Although the HIV test results of the two patients have not come out now, it has given her a wake-up call.

  In this world, **** need to be cautious!

  …

   After the patient with "acute myocardial infarction" was sent to the CCU, Lu Chen still paid attention to the changes in his condition.

  The system of the emergency department cannot read the patient's medical records, but fortunately, the entire cardiology medical record system is the same.

  Lu Chen got on Sun Guoguo's account and entered the medical record system of the Cardiology CCU.

   He quickly found the patient's bed number.

   Check the patient's doctor's order, the surgery doctor's order has been placed.

   "Looks like he's already in the operating room."

  Lu Chen opened the operation-related records and found that the patient had two more ventricular fibrillations on the operating table.

   "If this can be saved, then his life is really big."

   At this time, there was a sudden loud noise outside the emergency ward.

  Cheng Peng ran into the doctor's office from outside panting.

   "The family member of the myocardial infarction patient is here to make trouble!"

  Lu Chen frowned, the patient was still being rescued in the CCU, and there was trouble here?

   At this time, Wang Xiaodong was seeing other patients in the emergency room.

  Lu Chen stood up and said, "Fatty, you go to the rescue room to find Senior Brother Wang, I'll take a look first."

   Walk out of the emergency doctor's office.

   At the nurse station in front, Lu Chen saw four middle-aged people, male and female.

   The leader was a middle-aged man, with his left hand on his hips, his right hand pointing at the nurse in front of the nurse's station, and he kept shouting and cursing.

  Lu Chen stepped forward and took a look. His appearance was somewhat similar to that of the patient. He should be the patient's brother.

   At this time, the head nurse of the emergency department has appeared.

   She stood in front of the nurse's station, constantly communicating with patients.

   The middle-aged man was very emotional and loud, as if he wanted to attract the attention of everyone around him.

   "What kind of ruined hospital are you? It's a waste of life, right? My brother came in the morning, and you put him back!"

   "Don't get excited, we have something to say slowly..." The head nurse tried to appease the middle-aged man in front of him.

   "Don't get excited! My brother is in the intensive care unit for rescue! Can I still calm down?"

   A few men and women beside him kept echoing, accusing the second hospital of Jinghua for how bad it was.

   When Lu Chen saw this, he stepped forward immediately.

  This patient was admitted by their group, and it is best for them to come forward to solve it.

   Although the head nurse was the head of the department, he didn't know what happened at that time.

   "Hello, I'm one of Liu Mao's emergency physicians." Lu Chen said, staring at the people in front of him without hesitation.

   "You?" The middle-aged man turned his head to look at Lu Chen and sneered, "A hairy child, I want to see your director, hand over your director quickly!"

   "If you have any opinion on our diagnosis and treatment process, you can put it up at any time, or you can go directly to the complaint route." Lu Chen said solemnly.

   The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "My brother was diagnosed with a myocardial infarction in your hospital in the morning. You don't care about anything and let him go back. You are not killing people? Are you not a quack doctor?"

   "We have fully informed the patient and family of the condition, and the patient himself refused hospitalization and surgical treatment." Lu Chen continued.

"How did you communicate? My brother is a commoner and has no knowledge of medicine. How does he know whether the disease is serious or not?" The middle-aged man asked rhetorically, "It must be that your hospital did not fully inform you about the prognosis of the disease. Inaccurate, let my brother go. This has led to his current rescue, and your Jinghua Second Hospital has an inescapable responsibility!"

  Lu Chen raised his brows, the patient's family members have something to say, or there is an expert behind him.

   If it is true that the condition is not fully informed and the assessment is not in place, the hospital will definitely bear the main responsibility.

   However, the families clearly got it wrong.

   Before the patient left the hospital in the morning, Lu Chen and Wang Xiaodong had asked him to sign the outpatient medical record, expressing his refusal to be hospitalized and surgically treated.

  Each outpatient or emergency patient will have a medical record book.

  All treatment in the hospital will be written in the medical record by the doctor.

  Lu Chen said sternly: "The patient has signed the outpatient medical record and refuses to be hospitalized!"

   "Oh? Outpatient medical records? We didn't see this." The middle-aged man raised his brows.

Cheng Peng, who was beside   , became a little anxious when he heard this.

   "When the patient left, he still had the medical record in his hand!"

"But we haven't seen this medical record now. Just listening to your hospital's own words is useless!" The middle-aged man stared at Cheng Peng without showing weakness, obviously coming prepared, "What evidence do you have to prove that you Have you communicated with my brother? Don't forget the inversion of the burden of proof in medical care!"

   In general civil and criminal cases, a clause of "burden of proof" is followed.

   That is, whoever claims, whoever gives evidence.

   In short, I claim that you are guilty, so I have to produce certain evidence so that you can be proven guilty.

   But in medical dispute cases, there is a special clause, which is "inversion of the burden of proof".

   Due to the limitations of the victim's position, it is impossible or difficult to prove it with evidence.

   Therefore, the law stipulates that patients do not need to provide evidence, but doctors need to produce evidence to prove their innocence.

   When the evidence is not available, the fact will be inferred according to the established results, so that the patient is in a better position.

   A gleam of light flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.

   This group of family members is really not a simple disturbance!

  The average person must not know the rule of "inversion of the burden of proof" in the law.

   At this moment, Wang Xiaodong finally finished handling the emergency patients and came to the nurse station.

   He stepped forward, stood in front of Lu Chen, and protected him behind him.

   "I'm Liu Mao's doctor in charge, do you have anything to talk to me about..."

  Wang Xiaodong winked at the three of Lu Chen and told them to leave first.

   The head nurse is also clearing out irrelevant personnel.

   "Let's go, let's go back to the office." Lu Chen turned back and said to Cheng Peng and Xiao Lin.

   "But, this..." Cheng Peng hesitated.

   "Don't worry, Brother Wang Xiaodong has encountered more of this kind of thing in the emergency department than we have, and he can handle it well." Lu Chen said in a deep voice, "We are still in the way here, let's go back."

   "Okay." Cheng Peng nodded.

  Lu Chen and the three returned to the doctor's office.

   After about twenty minutes, the noise at the nurse's station finally subsided.

   This year, the Supreme People's Court's newly revised "Several Provisions on Evidence in Civil Litigation", one of which is to delete the "inversion of the burden of proof" in medical litigation. Now the burden of proof for medical malpractice is no longer inverted.
