Dr Halstead's hart ( English version)

by Miuccia1212

Will Halstead was one of the best and most trained doctors Chicago Med had on their team. He had saved numerous lives, sometimes even going beyond the rules by breaking them and risking his place. But what wouldn't be done to save someone? He was a great doctor, stubborn yes, but with a great heart. Yes, the heart, the very one that one day began to create unexpected problems..

1. Will Halstead

That was for Will a day like any other, he'd woken up early, got ready and left to go to work.

Besides being a great doctor, one of the best that Med had had in his team, he was also a great musician, he could play the guitar very well, and he also had a beautiful voice.

When he was in the car he loved listening to music and singing along with his favorite songs.

Arriving at the hospital he had parked in the hospital parking lot and once inside he had changed and after greeting everyone with the cheerfulness and sunshine that distinguished him he went to work.

His first patient was Lara Batson, a 30-year-old girl.

She arrived at the hospital with skyrocketing beats and high blood pressure.

- Miss, I'd like to run some tests to determine what is causing your problems,- said Dr. Halstead.

-All right - the girl replied.

- Megan, let's do an ECG, an echo, a chest X-ray and his blood exams. In the meantime, let's give her some cordarone, she should act soon and reduce the beats. Also get someone down from cardiology for a consultation .- the doctor said to the nurse.

While the patient was undergoing various tests, Will went to visit other people, waiting to be called once the results were obtained.

From time to time he went to the nurses' station to ask if they were ready.

- Meggy Miss Betson's exams arrived? - churches.

- No, they're not complete yet. I'll send them to your tablet as soon as they're ready. she replied

- OK thanks. - Said the doctor.

After about an hour, the documentation had been transferred. Looking at the results, Doctor Halstead got an idea of what the young lady might have and decided to join her to talk to her.

- Miss Batson we have the results,- he announced as he entered his patient's room. - I am almost convinced that you have atrial fibrillation. It is strange to find such a pathology in such a young girl but it happens sometimes. The heartbeat becomes irregular and, often, accelerated. This can cause symptoms such as heart palpitations, fatigue and breathlessness. This is often caused by an infection, and here I read in his file that he recently had a pericarditis that developed around the membrane of the heart. -

- I understand, is there a cure? - she asked

- Yes, of course, you can try with a chemical ablation or with a surgical one. But before I talked to you about these procedures, I requested a cardiology consultation. The doctor will evaluate you and explain everything to you. - Said the doctor as he was about to leave the room.

- Dr. Halstead? - she called him and when he turned around he said - thank you -

Will smiled at her and walked away telling her he would be back as soon as the cardiologist came down.
