Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 73: Watch the joke! (Subscribe)

Debridement and suture are definitely more than simple debridement and suture. If there is a foreign body stuck inside the soft tissue, it will also be accompanied by an incision.

With Zhou Yanqing's current basic skills, he has no problem completing simple debridement, suturing and incision.

After watching the progress of the daily task become "1/20", Zhou Yanqing sent the patient and his family away with a smile: "The wound is not very deep, and there is no damage to blood vessels and nerves!"

"For local tendon damage, just suture it up directly. After the operation, make sure to keep the wound clean and dry. Go to the emergency department for a tetanus shot, and then you can go home."

The patient looked at the bandaged area, which was short and sturdy, and shook it left and right, then stared at Tian Chao with some envy for a few seconds, and raised his head to Tian Chao: "Your senior brother is still your senior brother, huh?"

"Study hard and try to be as good as your senior brother as soon as possible."

There was a hint of pride in the patient's expression.

It can be seen that Tian Chao is a little envious of Zhou Yanqing's skills.

Upon hearing this, Tian Chao smiled and nodded, without saying anything else.

Only after the patient and his family left, when Tian Chao and Zhou Yanqing were standing in front of the sink washing their hands, did Tian Chao say, "Brother Zhou, do you think I can reach your current level in another three years?"

Tian Chao did not respond to the patient because he was too lazy to communicate with a layman.

Study hard?
Can Zhou Yanqing surpass his current level simply by studying hard?

Even if he tried his best, the best he could do was to just be able to get through the special channel for a professional doctorate like Senior Brother Yu Yue. He would hardly be able to reach Zhou Yanqing's super high level at the same age.

Therefore, Tian Chao has been looking forward to reaching the same strength as Zhou Yanqing in three years.

Zhou Yanqing pursed his lips, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry: "If you work hard, you will always make progress."

If you can make up for your desires by working hard, that is not the true reward of God for hard work. Zhou Yanqing has always believed that God rewards hard work, and if you work hard, you will get some rewards.

"Senior brother, do you still have any opinions about me?" Tian Chao was a little thick-skinned and brought it up first.

Zhou Yanqing shook his head: "No, Tian Chao, don't think too much."

"It's normal to try hard to gain opportunities for yourself. I'm also working on it," Zhou Yanqing said calmly. He just finished washing his hands, wiped the water off his hands with a tissue, and walked out slowly.

Tian Chao did not pursue the topic further. He just followed Zhou Yanqing out the door and left tactfully.

Opportunities in the hospital are scarce, and every operation opportunity is precious. Everyone should do their best.

……

After that, Zhou Yanqing was caught up in the relatively busy process of admitting new patients.

The procedure for admitting new patients at Xiangya Hospital is not much different from that at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hengda University.

As the doctor on duty, one of my duties is to conduct routine examinations for newly admitted patients, create medical record templates, and then appropriately prescribe some necessary preoperative examinations to save time for patients' surgery arrangements.

Chief Resident Ning Zhu had repeated these templates many times during the induction training.

Of course, there are differences between Xiangya Hospital and Hengda First Affiliated Hospital.

There are so many patients admitted in a day. On Sunday, there were a total of 17 new admissions.

For example, it takes two minutes to create a patient's medical record template, such as admission record, initial medical record, senior physician's first ward round record, admission conversation record, etc.

It takes five minutes to issue a patient's routine medical instructions for admission and necessary preoperative examinations.

Then, Zhou Yanqing also needs to work around the clock and carry out the operation effectively for more than two hours without stopping.

Taking into account the fact that the patients arrived at the ward one after another with a certain amount of time intervals, Zhou Yanqing did not finish processing the templates and medical orders for today's new patients until after six o'clock in the afternoon.

Then, the bed assignments of newly admitted patients were posted one by one in the small group of residents.

Other attending physicians do not need to participate in the admission procedures for new patients, but it is their responsibility to ask about medical history. Otherwise, when doing rounds tomorrow, if they don't know anything, they will have to bear the anger and ridicule of their superiors.

At around seven o'clock on Sunday evening, the lights in the doctor's office were on and the other brothers began to work.

Zhou Yanqing finally had time to stretch, took his takeaway food and walked into the doctor's lounge, and started eating cold food...

Time is like water.

The next day, after completing his rounds and checking the doctor's orders, Zhou Yanqing began to carefully read the "part-time job" information sent to him by Chief Resident Ning Zhu.

After reading it, Zhou Yanqing took a special look at his balance. Together with Alipay and WeChat, there was less than one thousand yuan.

When Zhou Yanqing rushed to Shashi from Hengshi, he brought with him 15,000 oceans.

The big part was the rent, one third of the deposit. It was 4,800.

The last time I treated everyone to a meal, the total cost of the food, drinks and drinks was six thousand five hundred.

In addition, Zhou Yanqing has been here for a month, and the expenses for food, materials for the training room, and occasionally treating other brothers to boxed lunches are really too much!
If there is an opportunity, and it does not affect the overall progress of his studies, Zhou Yanqing is still willing to work part-time to earn a little money. Besides, the job that Ning Zhu introduced to Zhou Yanqing was more than just a job that could earn a little money.

The 'part-time job' was near Liuhe, with a phone number and the contact person's name being He Yuan. Other than that, there was nothing else.

Thinking that this was the address and contact person sent by Ning Zhu, it shouldn't be a remote place. Zhou Yanqing checked the subway line and found that there was no direct access, so he simply took a taxi.

After getting off the bus, the park-style buildings come into view.

Colorful flags and red flags were flying at the main entrance. The grid lines were over a hundred meters long. The mesh-like automatic induction door was tightly closed, and no one entered or exited.

The wind speed was quite strong near the Liuhe River. The wind in November was already a bit cold. Zhou Yanqing shrank back and said quickly after dialing the phone: "Hello, Sister He. I am Zhou Yanqing, who was recommended by Dr. Ning Zhu from the Department of Hand Surgery of Xiangya Hospital to come here to contact you for vascular suture..."

Zhou Yanqing talked on the phone and asked the security guard at the door to open it. He walked straight inside, and the fragrance of osmanthus filled his face. At the same time, the strong wind blew Zhou Yanqing's jeans so that the folds were slightly deformed.

At the same time, a professional woman in her thirties walked out of the building opposite the entrance. She was smiling, but when she saw Zhou Yanqing, her smile froze a little, but soon melted away, and she smiled professionally: "Is this Teacher Zhou?"

She wore a blue suit with a shirt, blue trousers and high heels, and she looked very elegant.

"Sister He, I'm Zhou Yanqing. Teacher Ning Zhu asked me to come here." Zhou Yanqing nodded slightly, tightened the backpack behind her, and quickened her steps forward.

He Yuan is indeed a mature professional. She smiled and said, "He was recommended by Teacher Ning. He must be a talented student. Teacher Ning should have told you about the content of our experiment, right?"

"Our company makes vascular graft materials. In order to cooperate with the teachers in hand surgery, we specially designed an artificial blood vessel for small and medium arteries because there is always a shortage of bridging materials for small arteries when blood vessels are defective..."

"It is currently in the stage of animal testing. Although it has not yet been mass-produced, the raw materials for testing are limited after all."

"So, Mr. Zhou, how about trying your hand at stitching once or twice?"

He Yuan expressed it very cautiously.

You are so young, you are not here to joke with us, right?

Of course, Ning Zhu's face also had to be given. After all, when these materials of his company were on the market, Ning Zhu might be the attending physician or associate professor in Xiangya Hospital. At that time, he would be a "big customer".

"Okay, Sister He."

Zhou Yanqing's expression was very calm: "Before I came here, Teacher Ning mentioned to me that the main content of our current animal experiments is just the bridging of artificial blood vessels with the mouse's coccyx."

"To make a more precise analogy, it's like suturing a blood vessel into two or three sections. It would be best if the blood flow rate could reach more than 95%, right?"

Zhou Yanqing described the issues to be addressed in a very professional manner.

He Yuan's face finally showed some genuine radiance: "That's what it is, Teacher Zhou!"

"Your description is not much different from that of our engineer."

Engineers are actually the technical staff in the company!

However, the technology for reconnecting and suturing the mouse coccyx is so specialized that you will not be able to find such technology in other specialties except hand surgery to sew two or three sections.

This is the case with cosmetic surgery, and even specialists who are good at suturing can’t do it!
"Then I'll try it first."

"If I can't meet your company's standards, I'll take a taxi back by myself. I'm sorry to let you spend money, Sister He." Zhou Yanqing smiled and followed He Yuan into the elevator.

He Yuan said, "Teacher Zhou, you must be joking. Teacher Zhou, you are here because you think highly of our company. The round-trip fare and meal allowance will definitely be paid according to the standard."

"Please come this way!" There were not many people in the experimental building, and the elevator door opened quickly.

After the elevator reaches the fifth floor, the full glass floor-to-ceiling window corridor is so bright that it seems as if there is nothing in it.

High-tech lead doors separate many operating rooms. The gout system inside the room, which is comparable to that of a laminar flow operating room, was humming, and Zhou Yanqing only smelled a faint odor.

Then, He Yuan quickly took Zhou Yanqing to an operating room.

Inside, there were three people, all wearing white coats.

One middle-aged and two young people.

The three men probably felt that it was despicable for the company to rely on outsiders and to please others, so they each sutured the coccygeal artery on the operating table.

Of course, even without considering the immediate blood passing rate, they couldn’t even pass the bleeding test.

"He Yuan, who is this?" The middle-aged man frowned when he saw that the person who came was different from what he expected.

"Teacher Ding, this is Teacher Zhou Yanqing, who was recommended by Teacher Ning Zhu from Xiangya Hospital..." He Yuan was only halfway through her words.

The middle-aged man's face turned ugly: "He Yuan, are you here to make fun of us or have you found someone to deliberately insult our technical department?"

"At present, there are only a handful of people in Shashi who can perform this level of vascular suture. You brought a student here, are you deliberately trying to make fun of me?"
