Doctor, we have received a patient unresponsive, in severe respiratory distress. Hey, just call resp. therapy, and call me when my foothockeybasketbaseball game is over on the HD. Hey doctor, she is not breathing anymore-want to assess your patient now?!?! Dammit nurse-I cannot see her in here? All right-hey where is all the equipment gone to? Well doctor, they took it to the gym, for the mock disaster drill, with the rest of the staff. It is just you and me--poor patient.
Dammit nurse, just get me my doctor's bag, and I will save this poor spirit. Doctor your bag has only expensive booze, a stethoscope, and a Montblanc pen. Hey nurse, that is all you need in this high stress life of an ER doctor. Now let me listen to her lungs-ah yes she is not breathing-can you ambu her for me nurse? Now I can assess her better. Hey, I just need my gin and pen, and she will be breathing in no time flat. Doctor-I saw this on an episode of MASH- you are going to trach her?! N, you silly nurse. Just watch and be amazed by my great medical skillz! I take a mouthful of booze-ah refreshing, and I unscrew my pen-she will be billed for a new one! I blow alcohol on the parts and just shove them into the sides of her chest-like chest tubes and re-inflate those lugs of hers. Doctor, if that is what she needed, chest tubes, we could have easily done bilateral needle decompressions at the second rib space, midclavicular line. Where on earth, did you learn with crazy procedure doctor!?! Well, it was in my new manga series, I am reading on breaks from my naps.

Nurse faints......

Yes, this procedure is shown, in detail-graphically in this manga. The craziness of this series, is well balanced by the humanity the main character brings to medicine and the University Hospital in Japan. Get sick in a foreign country, and you so will discover how well we do medicine in the USA. Princess Diana was on scene way too long and no trauma centers in Paris. They did even have a medivac Helicopter to send to scene-with trauma trained staff to assist. Sure, she would have probably not overcome her head trauma, but that golden hour of trauma was spent on scene.

I highly recommend this slice of life of the Japanese medical system-though a little dated-to see how patients are treated elsewhere.

Team Medical Dragon ist ein guter Manga über das japanische Krankenhaussystem, spezifisch das Universitäts-Krankenhaussystem. Die Figuren, sowohl die Protagonisten als auch die Antagonisten, sind glaubhaft dargestellt und durchlaufen glaubwürdige Veränderungen im Laufe der Reihe. Neben gem guten Pacing und einer durchgehenden Handlung wird ein Augenmerk auf die "Vergehen" des japanischen Gesundheitssystems gelegt.

Darunter fallen z.B. die Entlassung hoffnungsloser Fälle aus Krankenhäusern aus Geld- und Prestigegründen, die strikte Hierarchie innerhalb des Mitarbeiterstabs, die Folgen aus dieser strikten Hierarchie (jüngere Ärzte kommen nicht zum Operieren und bekommen dadurch keine Erfahrung), die lose Vermischung von Forschung und klinischen Studien sowie der engen Verbundenheit zwischen Kliniken und Pharmaindustrie.

Besonders grotesk wird das an "Halbgötter in Weiß" erinnernde Hierarchiegefüge an einer Szene auf einem Golfplatz: Ein Professor schlägt einen Ball in ein Gebüsch, ein untergebener jedoch gibt den Ball gut und wirft ihn aus den Gebüsch aufs Grün. Was kurios wirkt ist leider traurige Realität.

Die durchgeführten Behandlungen (zumeist Operationen am Herz) sind gut dargestellt - sofern das für Laien ersichtlich ist.

Einzige kleinere Kritikpunkte ist die Figur des Asada Ryutaro, der leider ein wenig blass bleibt am Ende und generell das ein wenig überhastete Ende. Hier wäre noch mehr Potential möglich gewesen mit ein paar mehr Kapiteln. Alles in allem aber gute 4*.

Dengan embel2 pemenang shogakukan manga award, Iryu memang manga yang sangat baik.
Dengan alur yang cepat berhasil membawa kisah petualangan ryutaro sebagai dokter bedah yang anti mainstream di bagian bedah dada& jantung.
Menariknya, beberapa quotes menghiasi manga ini yang menunjukkan betapa bobroknya sistem ddi RS Universitas. sungguh kolot.

[Fawzan Ananda · Rating 5 out of 5]

one of the best manga ive read. the character development is amazing. in the end, you cant even hate anyone in this manga. everyone has their reason and ambition.

[Trevor Oakley · Rating 4 out of 5]

This manga offers scathing commentary on the medical arts in Japan -- knowing nothing about how this, I can't give an opinion on this portrayal. I can say that anyone who has played any of the Trauma Center games, or read manga such as Iron Wok Jan, will recognize the character traits embodied by Dr. Asada.
