On December 14, 2018, Zhang Weibing, the chief physician of the Department of Urology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, was chopped by the patient and was seriously injured. Is he okay after a year?

Dr. Zhang Weibing was facing the door of the office, sitting quietly, leaning his upper body on the back of the chair against the wall, with his legs raised and lying on a small stool. The needle was on the back of his hand, and the liquid in the medical glass bottle was slowly injected into the vein along the infusion tube.

Due to the accident one year ago, Zhang Weibing’s damaged digestive and immune functions have not recovered. A cold is now being treated with an intravenous drip.

That murder a year ago

Like most doctors, Zhang Weibing never thought that death and the butcher knife would be so close to himself.

At more than 7 am on December 14, 2018, Zhang Weibing was in the urology round on the 9th floor of Building 4 of Zhongnan Hospital as usual. In order not to delay the expert clinic at 8 o’clock, he made the rounds earlier. There was a patient who had just finished surgery yesterday. He needs to ask in detail about his postoperative recovery.

At 8 o’clock, Zhang Weibing appeared on time in the consultation room.

The urology clinic is in the southeast corner of the fourth floor of the hospital outpatient building. There is a row of stools outside the clinic for patients to rest and wait for calls.

Around 10 o’clock, Zeng Hongping stood up from the stool. On this day, Wuhan is a sunny day.He carried an umbrella and walked into the office.

He took a long knife out of the umbrella and slashed at Zhang Weibing.

Screams and calls for help followed. When colleagues and security guards heard the news, Zhang Weibing had several knives in his body: neck, chest, abdomen, right hand … The most severe one was cut from one side of the neck, more than 20 cm long.

Zhang Weibing was quickly taken to the bed and taken to the rescue room.

At the time, the condemnation statement issued by the Hubei Medical Association at the time described that Dr. Zhang had severe head and neck and chest injuries, ruptured intestines, ruptured large vessels in the abdomen, and was dying.

After the murder, Zeng Hongping dropped his long knife and climbed out of the office window. He then folded his arms over his chest, facing the window, and fell backwards in a scream, dying on the spot.

Zeng Hongping’s body was then transported to the funeral home in Wuchang District for cremation. The body was unclaimed for a long time. According to police information, Zeng Hongping was a patient with advanced cancer and had a urology visit at Zhongnan Hospital. He was divorced before the murder. He has not previously raised any objections to the hospital regarding the treatment.

In the afternoon of the day of the incident, the hospital resumed the order of consultations. Doctors continued to perform operations and visits, and patients continued to see doctors. Security guards holding riot shields and riot forks patrolled around.

Wandering before the ghost gate closes

The rescue lasted 137 hours.

After the incident, Hubei Provincial Health and Health Committee and Zhongnan Hospital invited many local experts in Beijing, Shanghai and Wuhan to consult Zhang Weibing.

The situation is not optimistic.

Zhang Weibing had symptoms of hemorrhagic shock and septic shock, and his heart stopped beating twice. The hospital opened an artificial heart-lung instrument. This is an external life support method, which is equivalent to placing an artificial heart and artificial lung outside the patient ’s body.
