The scorching sun shone on the hospital building, creating a long shadow in the white hallways. A rushed atmosphere was felt in the hospital, with fast-moving medical staff and patients waiting nervously. Tanti, a talented young surgeon, is walking quickly to the emergency room after receiving a call for an emergency case.
He arrived at the emergency room and was immediately notified by the nurses there. "Doctor Tanti, we have a male patient, his name is Mr. Surya. He had a severe car accident and his condition was very critical."
Tanti nodded seriously. "I will immediately evaluate his condition."
He entered the room with busy medical equipment ringing around him. The patient, Mr. Surya, was lying on a makeshift bed with a number of hoses and wires connected to his body. His face was pale, and his breathing was unstable. Tanti immediately examined the injuries and recorded the patient's condition carefully.
Tanti then spoke to Mr. Surya's restless family in the corner of the room. They seem very worried. "Pak Surya's family, his condition is very serious" Tanti said in a soft voice. "We have to have an operation to save his life immediately."
Hearing the word "surgery" a family member immediately responded, "But the doctor, we can't do it. Our family has a belief that prohibits surgery."
Tanti felt a dilemma. He knew that without surgery, it was highly likely that Mr. Surya would not survive. However, he must also respect the beliefs and decisions of the patient's family. It's a difficult situation, and he feels the pressure is increasing.
"Doctor Tanti," said another family member expectantly, "is there any other way to save his life without surgery?"
Let's think for a moment. "We will try other treatment methods first, but we should not delay too long. I'll talk to our medical team to find the best solution."
He came out of the room and called his medical team. They all agreed that surgery was the best option to save Mr. Surya's life, but they also understood the importance of respecting the faith of the patient and his family.
Returning to the patient's room, Tanti spoke to the family again. "We will try other medical treatments first, but we will continue to monitor his condition. If the condition worsens, surgery may be the only option left."
Mr. Surya's family looked worried, but they agreed to try another treatment first. Tanti was relieved that she had reached a temporary agreement, but the pressure was still there. He knows that time is precious in situations like this, and he hopes that alternative medical treatments can provide enough results to avoid a difficult surgery.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the emergency room remained tense. Tanti and her medical team are working hard to care for Mr. Surya, hoping that the right decision has been taken to save his life.
In a small conference room in the hospital, Tanti sat down with her medical team of several doctors and nurses. They are discussing the case of Mr. Surya, their critically ill patient who refused surgery because of his family's beliefs.
Doctor Rina, a senior surgeon, spoke seriously, "We must immediately perform the operation to save Mr. Surya's life. Every minute is precious in this situation."
However, Doctor Ani, a doctor who clings to medical ethics, raised her hand. "I understand the urgency of the situation, but we must also respect the decision of the patient and his family. It's a complicated case."
Tanti nodded in agreement. "I agree with Dr. Ani. We must find a way to respect their beliefs while trying to consider the safest medical solution."
Dr. Agus, an anesthesiologist, spoke. "We should also consider the risks of surgery in this critical condition. Is there a safer alternative?"
Discussions continued, and the medical team began to devise an alternative treatment plan for Mr. Surya. They decided to try intensive medical therapy and close monitoring first, in the hope that his condition would improve without the need for surgery.
However, after several days of treatment, Mr. Surya's condition is still unstable. Tanti feels the pressure is getting bigger because she knows time is going on. He should talk back to the patient's family to decide his next move.
Tanti met with Mr. Surya's family in a special room. They look tired and worried. "Pak Surya's family, his condition has not improved. We wanted to try other medical therapies, but surgery is still the best option to save his life. How do you feel about this?"
Tanti feels sandwiched between her medical responsibilities and respecting the patient's beliefs. He understood that this was a complicated moral issue and there was no easy answer.
Back in the conference room, the medical team kept arguing about what they should have done. Some doctors emphasize the urgency of surgery, while others still adhere to the principle of respecting patient decisions.
Doctor Ani spoke again, "We must remember that we are a medical team committed to saving lives. However, we must also respect the values and beliefs of the patient."
I try to find a middle ground. "What if we try another approach in convincing Mr. Surya's family? We can discuss the risks of surgery in detail and understand their feelings. It's a very difficult decision for them, and we have to give them full support and understanding."
After hours of discussion, the medical team decided to try a more empathetic approach in communicating with Mr. Surya's family. They will explain in detail the risks of surgery, but also provide moral support to the family to help them overcome this moral dilemma.
Tanti is relieved that they have found a middle ground that can respect the values and beliefs of patients while still maintaining the quality of medical care. This difficult decision will affect the future of Solar Patients, and the medical team is determined to provide the best for their patients.
Rudi sat in his study, holding a dusty old medical notebook. She knows that Tanti is struggling with a complicated case, and she hopes to give her son a valuable look. It was his personal medical notebook, containing his years of experience as a surgeon.
Tanti entered her father's room with a worried expression. "Dad, I really feel trapped in Mr. Surya's case. I don't know how else to."
Rudi smiled gently. "Sit down, son." He handed over the medical notebook to Tanti. "Maybe this book can help you find answers."
Tanti opened her father's medical notebook and began to read it carefully. He saw various records regarding severe cases that had been handled by Rudi. Some of them are similar to the case of Mr. Surya.
In one of the notes, Tanti found a description of a patient who also refused surgery for reasons of confidence. Rudi noted that he held a special meeting with the patient's family to listen to their concerns and explain the risks and benefits of surgery in great detail.
Tanti nodded in understanding. "Dad, do you think I should do the same? Perhaps I can explain the risks of the operation to Mr. Surya's family in more detail. This could help them understand why surgery is so important."
Rudi smiled proudly. "That's a good idea, son. I always believed that communication was the key. By talking to the patient's family with empathy and explaining things clearly, you can help them make the right decision."
Tanti began planning a meeting with Mr. Surya's family, in the hope that this approach would provide the solutions they needed. He felt more confident after reading his father's notes, and he knew that he was not alone in dealing with this moral dilemma.
A few days later, Tanti and the medical team had a meeting with Mr. Surya's family. They patiently explain the risks of surgery and describe the critical conditions faced by patients. They listen to all the family concerns and questions very patiently.
Finally, Mr. Surya's family agreed to reconsider their decision. They better understand the urgency of the operation and the risks involved. Although they are still worried about the spiritual consequences, they feel more confident in making decisions.
Tanti was relieved that the approach she learned from her father's notes had worked. In the next few days, the operation was carried out successfully, and Mr. Surya began to recover.
Rudi gave encouragement to Tanti after the case was over. "It is important to always strive for solutions that respect patient beliefs while still prioritizing their safety and health. Sometimes, we have to combine medical science with empathy and good communication."
Tanti is grateful for her father's support and guidance. He knew that the role of a doctor was not only about medical expertise, but also about wisdom in the face of complex moral dilemmas.
