Chapter 458: Main Surgeon, Surgery plus 50%
"You three, go have dinner after get off work. We have to work overtime to perform an operation tonight." Li Quan said to the three.
Now, Li Quan has absolute prestige in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The three agreed without any hesitation.
"Doctor Luo, Doctor Tang, today's operation is a highly difficult one for correcting deformed bones. Please pay attention and learn from it. After the operation, I will explain the key points to you."
Li Quan began to spare no effort in training his two apprentices.
However, bone correction surgery is an extremely difficult operation. The two of them will probably need to learn for at least three to five months before they can barely get the hang of it.
…
At around 6:20, Li Quan was making rounds.
He Youlong, who hadn't been in touch for many days, called me on his own initiative.
He Youlong is a very busy man who never chats. If he calls, it must be something.
"Brother He, are you back from your business trip?" Li Quan asked with a smile.
"Well, I just got back to the company today. Your bone injury medicine has been tested and there is nothing wrong with it. I am very optimistic about this medicine. If it is convenient now, I will bring the contract directly to sign with you. The old rules are 40% and 60%. I will provide the manpower, equipment, funds, etc., and you will provide the secret recipe and technical support."
As a successful pharmaceutical businessman, He Youlong naturally understood how valuable Li Quan's bone injury medicine was.
"Don't we need to look at the clinical efficacy?" Li Quan asked with a smile.
"I trust you! I know that you are giving me a huge honor by asking me to cooperate on this drug. I won't say much about gratitude. In addition to the cooperation, I will remember your kindness to me, Lao He."
He Youlong is a man who understands taste.
Know the limits and understand the overall situation.
Li Quan had such a good bone injury medicine that he would rather drag it out and seek cooperation with He Youlong. In addition to his appreciation of He Youlong's strong strength and character in all aspects, it was indeed because of the friendship between the two of them.
"Brother He, our cooperation is mutually beneficial. But I'm afraid it won't work for you to come over and sign a contract now."
"Why not?"
He Youlong felt nervous.
You were talking fine just now, why did you refuse to sign the contract?
The successful cooperation on weight loss drugs brought He Youlong rich rewards.
Li Quan gets about 1 billion yuan a month , and He Youlong should earn even more.
"I have an operation to perform right now, and I have no idea how long it will take. How about this, I'll come find you after the operation is done."
Li Quan said with a smile.
"Is that so? Okay, when you get off work, call me and I'll come to see you with the contract. By the way, Brother Li, you're a rich man now. You can buy a house and a car. It will be convenient for you to travel and do things."
He Youlong suggested.
In the past, Li Quan was just a poor doctor at the lowest level, and he had to count even the money he had to eat.
I didn’t have money to buy a nice car or a house, but now that I have money, I can really spend some money to improve my life.
Cars, houses and clothes are all rigid demands.
Successful people all buy houses and cars, and they don’t do it for the so-called face.
But to make life more convenient and better.
"Hey, I'm busy. I haven't had time to take the driver's license test yet. I'll see if I can spare some time to practice driving at night next month and get my driver's license ."
Li Quan had indeed wanted to buy a car for a long time.
It’s very convenient to travel.
"Do you want me to assign you a driver? It's okay to take your time to get a driver's license." He Youlong is really enthusiastic.
"No, no, I'm a hard worker and I'm not used to being waited on. Besides, I basically live a simple life with two points to one line. The rental house is only a few minutes away from the hospital. I don't need a driver at all."
Li Quan declined He Youlong's kindness.
There is no need to pay for the driver, whether it is paid by the company or by Li Quan himself.
He has been poor and suffered a lot. Now that he is rich, he still will not forget the hard days when he had no money.
Li Quan would definitely not squander the money he earned.
However, after I finish taking the Chinese medicine license exam, I can sign up for a driving school and get my driver's license first.
…
Everything was ready in the operating room of the functional neurosurgery department, waiting for the arrival of Li Quan, the real surgeon.
In terms of rank, Li Quan is not even qualified to be an assistant, let alone the main surgeon.
But his abilities are there.
We can't do without him.
So Director He and others could only wait patiently for him to come and be the chief surgeon.
When Li Quan arrived with Luo Wenhao and others, Mr. and Mrs. Feng were anxiously waiting outside the operating room.
"Doctor Li, you are here!"
Mr. Feng quickly pulled his wife up to greet them.
After witnessing Li Quan's abilities yesterday, Mr. Feng's attitude towards Li Quan changed fundamentally.
"Thank you for your concern for my son's surgery. This is a small token of my appreciation." Mr. Feng stuffed a rather thick red envelope into Li Quan's pocket.
"Mr. Feng, saving your son is my duty. I will not accept this red envelope. If you give me another gift, it will be an insult to my character. Then I will not perform the surgery on your son."
How could Li Quan accept red envelopes from his family members?
Not to mention that he is not short of money at all now.
Even if you are really poor, it is impossible for you to accept red envelopes from your family members.
Seeing that Li Quan's attitude was firm and his expression and tone were serious, Mr. Feng did not dare to give him any more red envelopes.
"Director He has already discussed the risks with you, right? Any surgery has risks. You should also know that cervical vertebra correction surgery is a world-class, extremely difficult surgery, and risks are definitely present. Have you considered it clearly?"
Li Quan asked.
"How high is the risk?" Mr. Feng's wife asked.
"The risk is within 10%. But even if the risk is only one in 10,000, there is still a risk, so you have to think carefully."
Li Quan's expression remained serious.
"Doctor Li, we have thought it through. Please perform this operation on our son. I believe that even if there is an accident, our son will not blame us. If the operation is successful, he can become a normal person. Otherwise, he will be a disabled person for the rest of his life. His future work, marriage, and even ordinary life will be greatly affected.
There are many unknown risks in life, just step over them.
I think it’s worth it to trade 10% risk for a bright future.”
Mr. Feng's wife looked sarcastic, but surprisingly she was quite eloquent.
It is said that women are weak by nature, but become strong when they become mothers.
She is a qualified and excellent mother.
"Just wait outside. My team and I will do our best to save your son. Pray for a successful operation."
After Li Quan finished speaking, he took Luo Wenhao and others into the operating room.
Inside, Director He had summoned several doctors from the functional neurosurgery department into the operating room, including instrument nurses, surgical assistant nurses, etc., all of whom were in place.
The anesthesiologist, a very busy man, had also arrived at the operating room early and prepared for anesthesia.
However, the chief surgeon was not invited to the scene.
Logically speaking, this is a very difficult operation, and at least a chief surgeon should be present.
Li Quan understood Director He’s thoughts.
The chief physician of surgery was invited to come over, and after the operation was successful , it was his turn as the director of the functional neurosurgery department, but he basically didn't have any credit.
Now, he is the highest-ranking doctor here, and his contribution must be significant.
Gaining merit is the political capital for promotion.
"Is the patient in good condition?" Li Quan asked as he walked to the operating table and took the patient's pulse.
"All signs are stable and meet the conditions for surgery."
Director He was scolded by Li Quan yesterday and is much more obedient today.
Even after waiting for such a long time, he did not dare to express any dissatisfaction.
"Let's start the operation. Director He, is there any problem with the muscle adjustment surgery?" After Li Quan took the patient's pulse, he found nothing abnormal.
He also specifically checked the motor nerve that he had cleared for the sick child yesterday, and found that it was still open.
This means that the effect of yesterday's treatment has been maintained.
"I am confident in adjusting the patient's neck muscles." It is unclear what level Director He is at now, but the lowest level is the attending physician.
The possibility of being the deputy director is very small.
Because the working years are not enough.
According to regulations, this type of operation requires the presence of at least a deputy director-level surgeon.
Li Quan's eyes swept over the people in the operating room.
The male doctor, who is nearly 50 years old, may be at the deputy director level.
Li Quan would not interfere in such matters.
Anyway, if there are any problems, he will not be responsible.
"Start anesthesia!" Director He ordered.
The anesthesiologist put an inhalation mask on the patient and administered general anesthesia.
After a while, the child fell into a coma.
The anesthesiologist checked and found nothing wrong.
"The anesthesia was successful and the operation can be performed."
This time it's Director He's turn to take the stage.
With the help of the nurse, he put on disposable sterile gloves, and a special person disinfected the surgical site on the patient's neck.
Director He is really capable. His cuts are precise and steady.
"Director He, I will correct the cervical vertebrae first, then you can adjust the muscles, and finally sew them up."
Li Quan saw that Director He quickly cut open a large wound on the patient's neck, exposing the cervical vertebrae inside. He did all this without damaging any blood vessels or nerves.
Including the avoidance and handling of the neck muscles, everything is very appropriate.
The level is really not low.
You should know that there are many muscles in the neck, including the platysma, sternocleidomastoid, suprahyoid, infrahyoid, prevertebral, scalene and suboccipital muscles .
In addition, blood vessels and nerves are densely packed.
The most important parts of the human body, such as the trachea, esophagus, etc., are all concentrated in the neck.
If I must describe it, the human neck is simply an important city with a high density of population and institutions.
The operation is extremely difficult.
This time it's Li Quan's turn.
"Hu Yue'er, you will be the assistant nurse. Doctor Luo, Doctor Tang, you will be the surgical assistants."
Li Quan deliberately arranged his own people in the seats.
Director He only left one equipment nurse to help, and the others retreated to the back.
At this moment, only a few protruding cervical vertebrae can be vaguely seen.
There are so many nerves here that even Director He doesn't dare to touch them lightly.
After Li Quan took the scalpel, he appeared very calm and composed.
Carefully cut the muscle tissue attached to the cervical spine, and then start the corrective repair surgery on the cervical spine.
You can see sweat gradually appearing on his forehead.
Hu Yue'er wiped it off for him with medical gauze.
Everyone in the operating room held their breath and watched nervously.
The anesthesiologist stared nervously at the screen of the life monitoring device.
He had participated in countless surgical anesthesia operations and had encountered extremely difficult surgical scenes. However, even the operations to rescue critically ill patients were not as scary as this moment.
He could even clearly see Li Quan's scalpel deftly passing by the pulsating carotid artery.
That's the carotid artery.
Not to mention the dense nerve plexus.
If any one of them is damaged, the patient's heart may stop beating or hemiplegia may occur.
Luo Wenhao and Tang Zhengyuan were just ordinary residents and had never participated in such a difficult operation.
They were shocked, but suddenly realized that Li Quan, who was operating the patient, was only a resident physician who had been in training for less than half a year. This was beyond description.
It's really too evil.
Even many chief surgeons may not have this level of expertise.
However, Li Quan performed the entire operation calmly.
Whether it is cutting or repairing bones, it is very stable.
…
The operation took nearly three hours. Li Quan spent about two hours on the patient's cervical spine repair surgery.
After the final muscle adjustment surgery, Li Quan took the initiative to request skin sutures.
Director He had seen Li Quan's surgical skills and agreed without even thinking about it.
Wait until the operation is completed.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but some people were surprised to find that their backs felt cold.
It turned out that I was too nervous just now and was sweating all over.
When everything was done, Li Quan was surprised to find two rows of light-shaped characters appearing in front of him.
[Bone therapy is performed successfully, skill points +10. ]
[Surgical operation performed successfully, skill points +50. ]
The skill points added to osteopathy were a bit too few, the same as the skill points added to successfully resetting a patient's bones. This made Li Quan speechless.
Fortunately, my skill in surgery was a big hit, directly adding 50 skill points.
Since acquiring the skill of surgery, Li Quan has discovered that surgery is the most difficult skill to master among all the miracle medical skills.
Sometimes an operation only increases the risk by one or two percentage points.
When the price goes up well, it only goes up by five or six percentage points.
This time it increased directly by 50%.
It really gave Li Quan a huge surprise.
He was particularly looking forward to what surprises would come after the most difficult surgical operation reached the minor success level.
"Okay, we can give the patient anesthesia now."
Li Quan took the patient's pulse and confirmed again that the operation was successful.
This was also the first time he successfully performed bone correction surgery on a patient.
The specific effect is not yet known.
We need to wait a week or two until the patient's surgical wound has barely healed before we can know the effect.
It can be seen that the patient's originally crooked neck has now been corrected through surgery.
And neck fixation care was done.
