Chapter 705: with translation of chapter title
One is Professor Mu Tao who returned from the Mayo Clinic, and there are two young military doctors who just came down from the front line. Director Jiang said.
Professor Mu? From where? Director Lao Chen pondered.
Pengcheng Kaifaqu Renmin Yiyuan, after studying at the Mayo Clinic, he came back upon hearing the news. In front of the elderly person, Director Jiang didn't dare to talk nonsense.
Is it Mu Tao?
Yes, do you know him?
I know his teacher, Wu Haishi; that old guy taught a good student. Director Lao Chen sighed.
Director Jiang hesitated a moment, wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back.
"Director Chen, please come in and sit a while; I'm busy here, it's just right for you to help keep watch." Director Jiang said politely.
Saying to keep watch, that's all fake.
He worried that Director Lao Chen was too fatigued, might have a heart problem; if they had to do emergency rescue on the elderly person again, it would just add more trouble.
Director Lao Chen smiled and entered the Operating Room together with the cart pushing the patient.
After changing clothes, Director Lao Chen let Director Jiang go attend to his own business, asked about Mu Tao's operating room, then went to the observation room to watch the surgery.
There was no technician; everything was operated by the surgeon inside.
In this situation, it could only be so; Director Lao Chen didn't find it surprising.
There was only one circulating nurse, who looked like she could barely keep running, but she was still persisting.
Through the lead glass, Director Lao Chen saw two people performing the surgery.
On the screen in the observation room, the progress of the surgery was displayed.
Indeed it was a severe pelvic fracture; the surgery was halfway done, embolization of two ruptured branches of the internal iliac artery had been completed, and they were now super-selecting the next arterial branch.
Director Lao Chen narrowed his eyes, carefully watching the super-selective procedure.
The blood vessel was very thin, the angle very tricky, making the super-selective procedure quite difficult.
The advance of the microguidewire in the super-selective procedure was not fast, appearing somewhat cautious; yet there was not too much hesitation, it slowly entered, approaching the blood vessel branch, and then a movement could be seen.
Director Lao Chen felt regretful, sighing, just a little bit short!
For such an extremely difficult super-selective procedure, an ordinary doctor might not even manage to get the wire in after one or two hours.
The microguidewire is very soft; force transmitted over a long distance diminishes to an extremely weak level.
To get the microguidewire through such a tricky angle into the next-level blood vessel branch is a particularly difficult task.
Being able to achieve this in one attempt is already quite good.
Director Lao Chen lifted his head, looking through the lead glass to see Mu Tao inside.
This young person is improving really fast.
Although the previous maneuver wasn't successful, Director Lao Chen knew that Mu Tao had already mastered the basic technique; it was just bad luck.
Through the lead glass, Director Lao Chen saw in astonishment the assistant holding a pair of hemostatic forceps, gesturing at the screen and saying something.
"Ugh... whose spoiled child is this, isn't this just wasting time?"
Director Lao Chen immediately became unhappy.
As an assistant, one should know what an assistant is supposed to do.
Do you think you're the director? Do you think this is a teaching surgery?
Although he was unhappy inside, Director Lao Chen didn't lash out; since they were in surgery, it's better to discuss any issues after coming out.
He frowned, looking through the lead glass at the two people inside.
Although wearing a mask and cap, from the brow area one could tell the surgeon was the Mu Tao he knew.
After not seeing him for many years, Mu Tao has matured greatly; he is no longer the inexperienced, tender young doctor he once was.
And his assistant, with brows and eyes like a painting, in every glance possessing myriad charm yet also giving an impression of vigorous heroism.
Is she a girl? Director Lao Chen was somewhat surprised.
In interventional surgery, one must wear lead clothing and stand for several hours; girls rarely can endure this, after all it's both technical and physical work.
"Hmph!" Director Lao Chen was displeased. Girls usually play around and act spoiled, which normally doesn't matter, but here in emergency rescue, how could...
As he was thinking, the surgeon in the Operating Room began another attempt.
Director Lao Chen stared at the surgeon and assistant, his peripheral vision noting the operation on the screen.
The microguidewire cautiously approached the blood vessel branch, and he could sense the surgeon's feelings.
For an operation of this difficulty, being careful is never excessive.
However, at the very moment the surgeon was about to perform the super-selective maneuver, Director Lao Chen saw in shock the assistant strike the surgeon's wrist with the hemostatic forceps.
What is going on?
Director Lao Chen habitually rubbed his nose, very displeased. This girl is really going too far; this is surgery, it's emergency rescue!
But Mu Tao seemed to have no awareness as the surgeon, as if he hadn't even noticed his wrist being struck, merely making an imperceptible change in hand position and then continuing the operation.
On the screen, the microguidewire once again poised to try, but before it could attempt, the hemostatic forceps arrived as expected, striking Mu Tao's radial styloid.
This... Director Lao Chen vaguely sensed something might be wrong; this kid Mu Tao still knows priorities. It's impossible that during emergency rescue he'd still be flirting...
But what exactly happened?
While Director Lao Chen was wondering, he suddenly heard from the hallway the sound coming from the adjacent Shujian: "Next patient being brought in."
Oh? There's also someone performing surgery over there!
It doesn't seem slow either; probably some big shot from Huaxi. But the voice sounds quite unfamiliar, also quite young, and Director Lao Chen couldn't recall who it was.
In the moment he was stunned, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and saw the microguidewire's second super-selective attempt finally succeed.
This kid Mu Tao is indeed not bad; for such a difficult super-selective procedure, success on the second try.
If it weren't for that person beside causing trouble, wouldn't the surgery be done faster?
The injured internal iliac artery branches on the patient numbered four; super-selecting and embolizing the last arterial branch, the process was the same as before. The assistant kept striking Mu Tao's radial styloid with the hemostatic forceps, to the point that Director Lao Chen felt a bit dazed.
They almost believed, believing this was a teaching Shou Bing.
If it is not a special period now.
If they didn't know that the person performing the Shou Bing inside was Wu Haishi's proud disciple.
If that assistant wasn't a girl.
Truly nonsense, I definitely want to talk about them, Old Director Chen frowned, they felt somewhat resentful.
Truly unaware of priorities.
Knocked three or four times, the operator finally found an opportunity, completed the microguidewire super-selective, then embolization, angiography, the Shou Bing was almost perfect.
Beautiful! Old Director Chen cheered inwardly.
If there were no flirting, this Shou Bing could completely serve as a teaching Shou Bing, letting other Intervention Department Doctors learn.
Even if they were at their peak, they definitely couldn't produce such a perfect Shou Bing. And Mu Tao's Teacher Wu Haishi also couldn't.
Soon need to remind Mu Tao, even if their skill is high, they cannot fool around on stage with a girl, right? Old Director Chen secretly thought.
Shou Bing ended, the airtight lead door opened, Old Director Chen surprised to see the assistant come out, Mu Tao was applying pressure to stop bleeding.
