"Have you seen your Teacher Liu's bone-setting skills? I told them, as long as they learn this skill from him, they'll never worry about finding a place to eat in the future." Wu Mingyu said with a smile.

"Teacher Wu, it sounds easy. I've also got a skeleton, and I touch it all day, but it doesn't seem to have much effect." Li Hao said with a bitter smile.

"Take it slow. Even I'm not as good at manual repositioning as he is now." Wu Mingyu said.

"He can feel the texture of the broken bone and identify if there are any bone fragments. For the safety of this kid, let's take a CT at the fracture site. Basically, it's nothing too serious. Keep an eye out tonight and watch for any blood clots."

"Teacher Wu, what level would you say Teacher Liu has reached now?" Su Wenhao asked curiously.

"What level? He probably doesn't even know himself. I guess it depends on how much pressure is put on him." Wu Mingyu said with a smile.

"In emergency surgery, most people wouldn't dare to step up, including associate chief physicians and chief physicians. But he dares to do it and does it quite well."

"He's participated in many major surgeries, including organ transplants, but he hasn't performed them as the lead surgeon. However, I think with his ability to read and understand surgeries, he could handle being the lead surgeon independently."

"If not for this, why would Director Xu chase him to learn orthopedic surgery? He's full of energy, so just follow him and learn well. The future is bright."

This is the evaluation Wu Mingyu gave based on the current situation, which made the interns' hearts race.

They just saw Liu Banxia's bone-setting technique without any particular calculations. He just glanced at the X-ray, did a simple touch, and then went for it.

But they also know how much experience is contained in these seemingly simple actions.

Is it that easy to reposition? Improper repositioning might injure blood vessels.

Actually, this is something that can easily happen in long bone fractures, which can compress blood vessels and affect blood flow. If affected for a long time, the tissue will naturally undergo some degree of necrosis.

For a child in the growth phase, this is very important.

"Comrade Old Su, why don't you wait for this kid's CT results? I'm going to the operating room." Li Hao said.

"Go ahead, if it's a complex surgery, just call me." Su Wenhao said with a smile, nodding.

Li Hao didn't linger and ran straight upstairs. When he arrived at the observation room, he saw Liu Banxia standing on the side chatting with Wang Lei, while Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing were preparing to open the patient's abdomen.

"Teacher Liu, is the patient's injury serious?" Li Hao pressed the intercom.

"It shouldn't be too serious. He was supplemented with blood in time when he was sent over, and his blood pressure is stable. Next, we need to see where the bleeding is. The intestinal tract might be ruptured." Liu Banxia said.

"How's the situation in the chest cavity?" At this time, Wu Xiaoyue, who had scrubbed in, also walked in.

"There's a rib fracture, probably injuring the alveoli. They performed a left chest tube insertion on the way." Liu Banxia said.

"Then there's not much of a problem. The kid's mother is more serious, with a head hematoma, and Xiao Jun is on it." Wu Xiaoyue said.

"Suction, I suspect the intestinal tract is ruptured, and there's intestinal content. The bleeding is quite significant," said Huang Bo.

Liu Banxia glanced at the monitor's readings but didn't intervene.

It's time to let the six understand the pressure of leading an emergency surgery. This patient is a suitable case.

Although bleeding increased after opening the abdomen, the blood pressure didn't drop quickly, and the heart rate was stable. This indicates the actual bleeding isn't significant, and the current blood transfusion rate is keeping up.

Plus, based on his experience, he judged it might be the mesenteric artery rupture, which the two of them could handle.

So this is a very good opportunity to individually evaluate the six, to see how they fare in emergency surgeries.

Seeing Liu Banxia not intervene, Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing felt the pressure. The attitude was clear; he wanted them to handle the patient.

Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing began searching inside the patient's abdominal cavity while suctioning.

"Actually, at this time, because there's a lot of content in the abdominal cavity, especially the recognizable intestinal content, there's no need to panic. Based on the general situation of the intestinal content, determine the damaged location of the intestinal tract." Liu Banxia spoke up.

Hearing his words, Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing immediately gained confidence and went straight for the colon.

"Haha, found it, clamp." In less than half a minute, Liu Yiqing happily shouted.

She also realized she might be too excited and didn't dare to raise her head again, instead carefully observing the patient's abdominal situation.

"Not bad, the blood pressure is starting to rise now." Wang Lei said.

"Alright, I need to operate on my side as well, in case another emergency patient needs surgery." Wu Xiaoyue said.

"The patient is still quite lucky; no damage seen in the other organs. Just cut out this segment of the intestine and re-anastomose it," Huang Bo said lightly after observing for a while.

"Congratulations, even though the surgery is just starting, you've already achieved a significant victory," Liu Banxia said.

Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing felt delighted inside.

The remaining work is really too simple, having already performed it many times when following Liu Banxia in surgery.

Flush the abdominal cavity clean, wash the inside of the intestine clean, cut the intestine, and end-to-end anastomosis—done.

"Actually, sometimes emergency surgery isn't necessarily harder than regular surgery," Liu Banxia remarked.

"Emergency surgery is difficult because of the urgency. Often, we don't have much time to conduct thorough examinations or pinpoint the bleeding point or lesion; hence, we have to race against time."

"But we must maintain the right mindset. Surgery can be urgent, but our hearts can't be. Initially, there may be some panic, but as you perform more operations, you'll gradually get used to it."

"Li Hao, do you know how this car accident happened? I seemed to see the police coming over when I arrived. Was it serious?"

"Teacher Liu, one moment, I'll gather some information," Li Hao hurriedly said.

"The problem here isn't major, but his injuries aren't minor either," Wu Xiaoyue said after completing the investigation.

"He's very lucky—just a small section of intestine removed," Liu Banxia commented.

"Teacher Liu, I've found out. It was caused by a full-load dump truck rear-ending him while waiting at a red light," Li Hao said.

"It's a family of three; the dump truck driver tried to flee but was pinned down by nearby people. Several others with minor injuries were sent to other hospitals."

"Ah, these dump trucks, they dare to act recklessly, it's too despicable," Liu Banxia complained.

Actually, many traffic accidents can be completely avoided. It's not that all accidents are mainly the responsibility of these large vehicles, but it's safe to say that most are indeed caused by them.

We've admitted quite a few car accident patients, and many are due to overloaded vehicles, excessive speed, and failure to brake.

Today's cars aren't very crash-resistant; once hit by such heavy vehicles, they're directly wrecked.

These dump trucks are construction soil transport vehicles in the city. He encounters them after work hours, and they drive like maniacs.

"You guys should also carefully watch their operations. You can follow now and watch for fun, but soon you'll need to be on stage yourself," Liu Banxia continued.

"Of course, the initial work still involves suturing, second assist, and first assist; we need to proceed step by step. Among you all, only Li Tianyang has somewhat rich experience."

"But don't be discouraged; there are plenty of opportunities here. You just need to be ready at any time. You two work quickly enough, but soon the drunken crowd will surge in, and they'll have to step in to save the scene."

Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing were slightly helpless. Actually, their current speed was okay. But they understood that Liu Banxia's so-called "slow" was in comparison to his own speed; their operation here was indeed "slow."

The rest of the interns were now watching intently.

For them, watching Huang Bo and Liu Yiqing's surgery provided more learning than watching Liu Banxia's surgery.

Because they operated "slowly," they could see clearly. When watching Liu Banxia's surgery, if they got distracted, they might miss something.

Liu Banxia didn't disturb them anymore and focused on "supervising" from the side. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Although Huang Bo was the main surgeon, supervision wasn't to be neglected, especially with bowel suturing. If it's not done correctly, there might be ischemic necrosis or anastomotic leaks.

Both these conditions could pose a risk to the patient and are difficult to manage. Especially with more intestinal contents in the patient's abdomen, even with careful rinsing, postoperative infections could occur, compounding the problem.

"Oh my god, finally finished suturing. Teacher Liu, does it look okay?" Huang Bo asked after completing the suturing.

"Don't ask me; you need to feel assured yourself and have confidence. Confidence and caution are not contradictory," Liu Banxia said.

"Hmm... I think the suturing is alright, just a bit slow. Rinse the abdomen again, restore blood supply, and check for bleeding points," Huang Bo replied.

"Are you all nervous practicing under your Teacher Liu?" Wang Lei asked.

"There's never been a relaxed moment on stage," Liu Yiqing glanced at Liu Banxia.

"Pressure brings motivation. You just need to know that even if I'm not in surgery, I'll be behind keeping an eye on you," Liu Banxia said with a smile.

Even Wu Xiaoyue was amused.

Not sharing the stage with Liu Banxia often, she knew that many times his operating room was very relaxed and joyful. Today, she too could feel it firsthand.

Perhaps influenced by this atmosphere, she felt her own surgery went smoothly.
