Chapter 485: Chapter 215: Enhancing Department Cohesion, Dr. Wu Was Convinced_3
They maintained a serious expression, which also served as an intangible deterrence to junior doctors, almost as a reminder to them to be careful and not to cause any trouble.
Zhou Can stepped onto the chief surgeon’s position at the operating table and the nurse helped him put on sterile gloves.
Director Mo and Wu Ziyu watched from the side.
So far, Zhou Can had demonstrated excellent proficiency in intubation, operation of various instruments, and anesthesia techniques during the surgery.
Both of them couldn’t help but look forward to Zhou Can’s surgical abilities even more.
Especially Wu Ziyu, seeing Zhou Can competent enough to handle the anesthesiologist’s responsibilities, directly establishing a general anesthesia pathway for the patient, was somewhat shocking to her. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
Although it is required for surgical doctors during their specialty training to rotate to the department of anesthesiology for at least a month, many only learn the very basics of anesthesia.
They just gain a relatively detailed understanding of the entire anesthesia process.
As for how to handle emergencies during the anesthesia, which anesthesia methods are suitable for major surgeries, what preparations should be done before the operation, and what are the contraindications - many doctors know very little.
After all, specialization matters!
Surgeons are adept at holding the scalpel, while anesthesiologists need to be well-versed in both internal medicine and surgery.
A competent anesthesiologist also needs to continually accumulate various surgical anesthesia experiences and rescue experiences to enhance patient safety throughout the perioperative period.
It must be said that anesthesiologists are responsible not just for the patient’s life safety during surgery.
Excellent anesthesiologists provide safety assessments for the entire perioperative period of patients.
Including pre-operation, intra-operation, post-operation, until the patient is safely discharged.
This shows that when anesthesiologists are involved in significant surgeries, it is never on a sudden dispatch. Instead, they are involved in the discussion of surgical plans beforehand.
After Zhou Can took his position as the chief surgeon, he began reviewing the patient’s medical records in his mind.
The MRI results showed: The patient’s left thyroid lobe had a large occupying lesion sized 81*110*115mm, part of which extended into the thoracic cavity, causing the trachea and mediastinum to be compressed and displaced to the right with local narrowing.
The patient also underwent an enhanced neck CT, the tumor size was slightly larger than that seen in the MRI, with clear boundaries, uneven density in plain scans, and a low-density area in the center.
From these results, although the tumor was large, it was likely benign.
The patient was elderly and had thyroid dysfunction preoperatively. Preoperative chest X-rays even indicated bilateral emphysema. Operating on such a patient involved extremely high risks.
Zhou Can was fully alert, carefully making the first incision.
With just one cut, Director Mo and Wu Ziyu’s eyes immediately widened, their faces showing expressions of shock.
They had thought that Zhou Can’s surgical capabilities were much better than those of ordinary trainees.
But they hadn’t expected Zhou Can’s incision skill to be so high.
Furthermore, the speed and precision of the cut were impressive.
Next, Zhou Can completely demonstrated to them what is meant by a master of rapid surgery.
He first made the incision, exposed the tumor in the surgical field, then quickly separated it, and finally performed the excision.
Watching Zhou Can efficiently remove the large tumor, over 10cm in diameter, in a few quick steps. During the surgery, multiple nodular lesions over 1.5cm in diameter were found on the right thyroid, which Zhou Can also removed.
The hemostasis and ligation during the surgery were astounding to them.
Even after the surgery was completed, they were still dumbfounded.
It took them a long time to regain their senses.
"Surgery can actually be done this way! My god, it’s unbelievable."
Wu Ziyu’s eyes revealed extreme shock and unspeakable admiration.
Watching Zhou Can perform surgery on the patient was like opening a new window for her.
Previously, watching other senior doctors perform surgeries, they were always extremely cautious and steady. But watching Zhou Can perform was like watching someone play.
It was so fast that it was hard to keep up with.
Yet, despite the speed, the surgery was performed incredibly well. During the separation, whether it was the important blood vessels or nerves nearby, everything was perfectly avoided without any accidental damage.
The advance ligation of blood vessels or electrocoagulation for hemostasis, every move in her eyes seemed very cool.
The total blood loss during the entire surgery was minimal.
This was closely linked to Zhou Can’s superb Hemostasis Skill.
The incision was very neatly cut, and the stitching made her mistakenly think it was a chief surgeon with extensive experience and a high level of suturing performing the operation.
Moreover, this was the first time she had seen Zhou Can perform a suturing surgery.
After the wound was sutured, it looked very comfortable to the eye.
One could anticipate that the patient’s wound healing time would be greatly reduced, and the scarring would be minimal.
Now she understood why the team led by Old Director Liu had nearly nine hundred surgeries last month, not only maintaining but actually achieving a high success rate of 98.4% and an average surgery quality score of 4.8.
With Zhou Can’s capabilities, achieving such high surgery success rates and quality scores was not surprising at all.
A surgery success rate over 90% is considered very excellent.
Over 95%, that is extremely excellent.
After 95%, every increase of one percent is exceedingly difficult.
Zhou Can, from this base of extreme excellence, further increased it by 3.4 percentage points, almost reaching the pinnacle of the surgical field.
"Having watched Dr. Zhou perform surgery today, I realized that I was nothing but a frog at the bottom of a well. There are always people better than oneself, and Dr. Zhou’s surgical skills and unimaginable speed are something I could never reach in my lifetime. Yesterday, I publicly questioned Dr. Zhou about the unfair distribution of work tasks among doctors, and now I sincerely apologize to you. I’m sorry!"
She bowed deeply to Zhou Can.
Her words were filled with remorse, but her eyes were filled with immense admiration for Zhou Can.
"Dr. Wu, you are too kind. It’s good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, there’s absolutely no need for such a formal apology. We are all doctors from the same department; we should trust and help each other."
Zhou Can did not help her up.
Because she was a female comrade.
To have her fully convinced was quite satisfying.
