A female graduate student selected an antibiotic injection labeled as "cefalosporin" from the box of antibiotics, ready to inject the model.
Suddenly, Gu Yu walked over and took the syringe from her hand.
Then, he found an antibiotic labeled "Azithromycin" in the box and gently placed it into her palm.
"You've made a potentially fatal error," he said.
"This patient with empyema has a habit of heavy drinking. If he drank alcohol before the surgery, injecting him with cefalosporin antibiotics would be tantamount to murdering him."
"For patients with a history of alcohol abuse, we can use Azithromycin instead of cefalosporin."
"Moreover, since the patient's empyema is caused by a pneumonia infection, Azithromycin is the most effective antibiotic against Mycoplasma pneumoniae in the category of macrolide antibiotics."
Seeing the puzzled look on her face, Gu Yu explained patiently.
He had fully immersed himself in the teaching task at hand.
