Chapter 1175: Chapter 1175: Enjoying the Surgery
(Thanks to Aizuo Bairimeng10 for the reward and encouragement)
"You really can do it, you managed to snag a spot from the inpatient department."
Wang Chao joked during lunchtime.
"Haha, it’s due to our good communication with the general surgery department in the inpatient section," Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"We’re quite lucky, which means we must complete tomorrow’s surgery flawlessly. Is that right? It’s like getting what you need when you need it."
"It really is. We’ve been guarding here for so long without a chance, and now one just pops up in the inpatient department," Wang Chao nodded.
"I think you should just keep an eye on the inpatient department. They have a higher intake volume; you can also do more surgeries."
"That’s not feasible. They are already recommending patients to me. If I just hang around there, it would seem too greedy," Liu Banxia said with a wry smile.
"Moreover, while NOSES surgeries are better, they also have downsides, and the cost is much higher compared to conventional laparoscopic surgeries."
"It’s not a small expense; for many families, it’s a lot of money. We just have to wait for opportunities, and I’ll run over when there’s a need."
"By the way, Xu Yino, Su Wenhao, after you finish eating, go help prepare the operating room. This time, it’s just you two; next time, we’ll rotate the other four."
"That’s how NOSES surgeries will be handled here in the future. Two at a time with me, to make resource allocation more balanced."
This is a plan he wanted to implement early on. They’ve passed the initial learning stage, which was about understanding the operation of the equipment.
Now they’re in an internship phase, so they need to think more about how to use it and how to assist in surgeries for patients.
Each person has watched at least ten NOSES surgeries, which is quite a lot for most people. They also need to speed up their learning; without some pressure, it’s hard to master.
"Teacher Liu, you wouldn’t believe it, but after you left, the patient was still muttering like in a dream," Xu Yino said with a smile.
"Exactly, he was quite lucky and timely. If not for doing the colonoscopy, and without the bowel prep, he wouldn’t have been able to get on stage today," Liu Banxia said.
"By the way, do you still have enough transplant donors over there? I noticed there have been three or four new patients recently?"
"It’s currently a bit of a headache," Wang Chao said.
"Anyway, I feel there’s never enough donor reserves. And we can’t always rely on people to contribute voluntarily, can we? Now that the fecal transplant center is running smoothly, it’s time we clarify the costs for this."
Liu Banxia nodded, "On this matter, I suggest you directly discuss it with the director. It’s not that I want to avoid trouble, but because it’s your project."
"The amount of subsidy we can get depends on the director’s thoughts. Frankly, your reputation is bigger than our project now, and many of your patients require long-term treatment."
"Sigh... I was kind of persuaded by you initially, and now I’m just riding on your coattails. Although financially it’s okay, it is indeed a bit tiring," Wang Chao said.
"What work isn’t hard? It’s all tiring. I’ve had enough to eat; I’m going back to the office to rest for a while, then I’ll head to the inpatient department," Liu Banxia said, finishing the soup in his bowl.
Performing surgeries is physically demanding, and he is genuinely preparing in advance for tomorrow’s surgery, which is very important.
"Sigh... with this taskmaster around, it’s hard to be lazy," Wang Chao said after Liu Banxia left.
"Teacher Wang, I think you’re already working very hard; don’t put too much pressure on yourself," Xu Yino said.
"Anyway, we don’t expect to keep up with Teacher Liu’s pace. As long as we can see his figure and not fall too far behind, that’s fine."
Su Wenhao nodded in agreement, that’s exactly the case.
Want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the big boss? That was a dream from a long time ago, now that the dream is over, everyone recognizes the reality.
Wang Chao carefully observed Xu Yino and Su Wenhao, making them feel a bit uneasy.
"Not bad, you all have good confidence, and you vaguely have some of that guy’s shadow," Wang Chao said with a smile.
"Keep it up. That guy missed out for many years but finally got a second chance. For you, this is the prime time, don’t miss this opportunity."
"Hehe, Teacher Wang, rest assured, I’m done eating too, so I’ll head to the inpatient department first," Xu Yino said with a playful smile.
They’ve heard this kind of talk more than once or twice; in their eyes, it’s the highest compliment.
Even though it’s a temporarily added surgery, it caused quite a stir in the inpatient department’s general surgery.
After all, if they went to the emergency center, it would take too long. Here in the inpatient department, it’s not an issue; it has a geographical advantage.
Anyway, by the time Xu Yino got there for the final equipment check, the observation room was already packed.
"See, even Xu Yino is so proficient at handling this equipment now," Jiang Tao sighed.
"What’s the use of being envious? Let’s make a deal. Your proctology department doesn’t use it much anyway, so why not leave it with us first?" Director Qiu said.
"I also need to explore and see if we have any promising talents here. We’ve all started our standardized training here. It’s only been a few months, and the gap is already evident."
"It’s fine to leave it here, but occasionally you’ll have to let our people come over for some observation. Although the usage frequency isn’t high, there are times when it’s needed," Jiang Tao said with a smile.
"I figured you’d get provoked by the interns’ assessments. So, how are our proctology interns doing?"
Director Qiu looked at him helplessly but still nodded.
Although the results haven’t completely been released in a list, the general situation after the assessment can still be grasped.
The performance of this batch of interns and standardized training doctors in assessments focuses mainly on the emergency center and proctology department. This made Jiang Tao, who had been silent for many years, extremely happy, proving that paying attention was the right decision.
What’s even rarer is that the dressing change techniques have significantly improved, based on feedback from patients.
If Liu Banxia weren’t too busy recently, he would have considered calling him over again for some more stimulation.
Chatting and talking, they arrived at the time for surgery. Liu Banxia, having washed his hands, walked in and was startled by the number of people in the observation room.
"Director Liu, good luck, today we’ll be watching you," Jiang Tao said with glee.
"Haha, this is where I once fought, isn’t it? I remember last time when you, sir, tried to persuade me to join the proctology department, it was in this operating room, right?" Liu Banxia replied with a smile.
"Ah, what a regret. Otherwise, our proctology department could have taken away some of the general surgery work, not just dealing with anal fistulas, hemorrhoids, and anorectal cysts," Jiang Tao said.
This was just banter among acquaintances, but many newcomers didn’t know about this. After hearing others explain it simply, they were all quite surprised.
So, Director Liu was that impressive back in the day, though it hasn’t been very long since then.
"Director Liu, how long do you estimate this surgery will take?" Anesthesiology Vice Director Ding Shaoyuan asked with a smile.
"Director Ding, if there are no deviations, it should take about two hours," Liu Banxia quickly said.
"Okay, I’ve got a sense of it. The patient’s physical indicators are pretty good, this surgery should be smooth and uneventful," Ding Shaoyuan nodded.
At this time, the patient was also wheeled in, and the task of verifying patient information naturally fell to Xu Yino.
"Let me reiterate some old issues, asepsis and aneuploidy are the fundamental red lines, crossing it means a failed surgery," Liu Banxia said.
"If anyone is interested in doing research in this area, you can sign up with Director Qiu, and we’ll make appropriate adjustments in surgical observation in the future."
"But one thing to be clear about, you can’t use this as an excuse. The intern work is indeed tiring, and it’ll only get tougher in the future, so you need to adapt now."
"Teacher Liu, patient verification complete, we can prepare for surgery," Xu Yino said.
Liu Banxia nodded, "Let’s begin."
The preparatory work was still to be completed by Xu Yino and Su Wenhao. This was enjoying the treatment of a guiding teacher, and they can’t do observation without gaining anything.
"Director Jiang, how long do you estimate this surgery will take?"
Director Qiu asked after Liu Banxia started.
"He said two hours, I estimate about an hour and forty minutes or so, no later than an hour and fifty minutes," Jiang Tao replied without thinking.
"This time also accounts for waking the patient. Before...my gosh, this kid is amazing, starting right off the bat?"
Liu Banxia’s operation really surprised Jiang Tao.
He hadn’t watched Liu Banxia conduct surgery for some time, and now he felt that the surgeries were done more quickly and steadily than before. This was a direct and enjoyable feeling he experienced, even as an observer.
Director Qiu beside him felt similarly; he too didn’t anticipate Liu Banxia to be so skilled at surgery.
Proficient mastery of instruments is one thing, but the steadiness and decisiveness during surgical procedures isn’t easily achieved.
And Liu Banxia now? He felt an exhilarating sense of ease, performing skillfully, and even "enjoying" the surgery.
Yet, while "enjoying" this way, he wasn’t distracted by any chaotic thoughts that could interfere with the surgery.
This is the effect of the added attribute "calm". Performing surgery becomes truly fulfilling, giving a sense that everything is under control.
Initially, he planned to discuss a bit more, but at the moment, he wasn’t in the mood, preferring to "enjoy" it thoroughly first.
