Chapter 61 Tuya's Three Famous Swords
Fortunately, Zhou Can has been doing a good job and has not caused any trouble for Dr. Xu so far.
As he continues to accumulate experience in various surgeries, he is getting better and better.
On the other hand, although Jin Mingxi relied on his rich experience in diagnosis and treatment over the past decade and rarely consulted Dr. Xu, he basically relied on his past experience and his progress was far less than Zhou Can's.
Also, Zhou Can's surgical speed is much faster than Jin Mingxi's, which is also a significant advantage.
He performed three operations, while Jin Mingxi only performed two at most.
And as Zhou Can's skills become more and more sophisticated, the gap between the two continues to widen.
The more surgeries you perform, the more you will learn, and as your experience accumulates, you will become more and more powerful.
Jin Mingxi seemed to have also felt this gap.
He tried his best to catch up, but he was more than ten years older than Zhou Can, and his physical and mental strength could not keep up. He was exhausted and sweating, but there was no result.
…
Zhou Can was busy until four in the afternoon and had performed eighteen operations.
The biggest gain was experience points in the two medical skills of suturing and ligation.
Even if we calculate based on an average of 5 stitches per operation, 18 operations can add 90 points of suturing experience and about 80 points of ligation experience.
The experience points earned from ligation are less because some sutures do not require one stitch at a time.
For example, continuous suture method.
Just tie two knots when starting to stitch and one more knot when finishing.
Therefore, the experience points for suturing are more than those for ligation.
He also gained a lot of experience points in debridement, a total of 11 points.
At this rate, it would only take eight or nine days to bring debridement skills up to the level of a resident doctor.
Debridement is widely used in surgery.
If the debridement is done well, it can not only greatly reduce the chance of wound infection and suppuration, but also greatly reduce the difficulty of suturing, making the suturing more perfect.
Wounds will also heal faster and better, reducing the possibility of scarring .
In rescue work, the importance of debridement goes without saying.
Whether the vascular debridement is performed well or not is directly related to the success rate of rescue.
In addition, debridement can also be used to clean up necrotic tissue and infected and purulent lesions.
Although it seems like a simple debridement technique, it is ranked among the advanced medical skills for a reason.
Its importance is comparable to that of anastomosis, insertion, and separation.
In addition to the above gains, he also had a 'small' gain.
Each patient receives four injections of anesthetic, so 18 patients receive 72 injections.
A total of 72 injection experience points were gained.
His injection experience value was originally 48/100 at level 2. After increasing by 72 points, it was directly upgraded to level 3, and the current experience value is 20/1000.
Although this medical skill seems to be of little use in surgical operations, I still believe that it is better to have more skills.
Having one more medical skill is always a good thing.
At least now he can give the child an injection, establish an intravenous line or something, and he won't have to worry about getting hit.
Fully capable of getting it right the first time.
His current injection level should be on the same level as a nurse.
This is much better than ordinary nurses.
"Xiao Zhou, how do you feel?"
Dr. Xu took off his gloves and looked at him.
"It feels good. I gained more in one day than I did in a month during my internship."
Thanks to Dr. Xu's greeting to the doctors , more than a dozen patients who should have undergone surgery in the specialist outpatient clinic were admitted.
Among the 18 operations performed, only four were debridement and suture operations for knife wounds, bruises, etc.
There are other types of surgeries.
I even performed a thrombosed external hemorrhoid surgery.
You know, hemorrhoid surgery is generally a level 2 or 3 surgery. Not to mention Zhou Can, even his teacher Dr. Xu is not qualified to perform a level 3 surgery.
But there are exceptions to everything.
Surgery for thrombosed external hemorrhoids is a primary surgery.
This is also an important reason why Zhou Can was able to get it.
Through this operation, he learned a lot of valuable experience in the treatment of hemorrhoids, such as how to make radial incisions, how to identify blood clots, how to treat blood clots, etc.
There were six or seven operations like this that had never been performed before.
This is why he always asks Dr. Xu for advice.
Today’s harvest is really great.
"Haha, it seems the effect is quite good! We can continue tomorrow." Doctor Xu smiled with relief.
His eyes turned to Jin Mingxi.
"Doctor Jin, what about you?"
"I definitely gained something, but I can't compare to Zhou Can, this monster. For the same debridement and suturing operation, his operation time is almost half of mine. The key is that the quality is also very high. I really admire him."
Jin Mingxi looked helpless.
Abilities are different for everyone.
Zhou Can's surgical skills improved too fast. During the regular training examination, he was probably a little weaker than Jin Mingxi. But now he has begun to catch up and surpass Jin Mingxi.
“You don’t have to compare yourself with anyone, as long as you surpass yourself, that’s good enough.”
Dr. Xu is actually quite suitable to be a teacher.
Basically, each junior doctor is taught according to his or her aptitude.
For example, he only asked Dr. Lin, who was not very talented, to gradually improve his basic surgical skills. For example, he asked Dr. Lu, who was lazy and irresponsible, to be his assistant and try his best to urge Dr. Lu to work hard.
To Zhou Can, a rare talent in a thousand years, power was delegated step by step.
Do your best to satisfy the opportunities for exercise that are given.
Zhou Can would never be allowed to perform any part of the surgery where the risks were uncontrollable.
It deserves the words "moderate leniency and strictness".
It will neither let the apprentice get into trouble nor hinder his growth.
Doctor Xu looked at Zhou Can again, with a hint of kindness and a hint of reminiscence of the past.
The look in his eyes was quite complicated.
"Xiao Zhou, the speed of the operation is both a good thing and a bad thing. Do you understand?"
Zhou Can shook his head in confusion.
"I only know that every second counts in rescuing patients. The faster the operation is completed, the less damage to the patient's body. When rescuing critically ill patients, even just one second faster can save a life."
For example, patients with severe bleeding.
The sooner the cause of bleeding is found and the sooner surgery is performed, the better.
If it is delayed for too long, the patient may not be able to get off the operating table.
"There is nothing wrong with pursuing speed. But once you pursue speed, you tend to become anxious. Especially when you are able to perform level 4 major surgery, many key parts of the surgery have strict requirements and must be completed within two to three minutes, or even seconds. At this time, your brain is definitely not as fast as your hands. Any small mistake can make you regret it for the rest of your life."
A thoughtful gleam flashed in Zhou Can's eyes.
If you haven't experienced it yourself, it would be difficult to express these profound insights.
"Teacher, you are respected as 'Xu Yidao'. Is it because you were a quick knife expert in the past?" Zhou Can considered this question again and again before asking it.
Because he was really curious about Dr. Xu's past.
"Although this matter has been sealed for several years, it is no secret. I was a famous surgeon in general surgery back then. Together with Director Wu Baihe of neurosurgery and Director Hu Kan of cardiothoracic surgery, we are known as the three famous surgeons of Tuya. Wu Baihe is famous for his precise surgeries and can perform extremely difficult cuts at the 0.1 mm level."
Dr. Xu's tone was filled with fond memories of the past.
That was also the highlight of his life.
Wu Baihe's surgical skills are even more astounding.
What does it mean that the cutting in surgical operations can be accurate to 0.1 mm?
The chief surgeon can cut as many sheets of paper as he wants when cutting a stack of paper. This is enough to make countless surgeons admire and look up to him.
The thickness of a sheet of paper is about one millimeter.
0.1 mm is only one tenth the thickness of a piece of paper.
Wu Baihe improved the accuracy tenfold based on the accuracy of a surgeon.
No wonder he was able to dominate the neurosurgery department of Tuya Hospital.
This kind of surgical ability is enough to make many chief surgeons look up to him throughout their lives.
Because this is a height that they can never reach no matter how much they practice.
It has to be said that in addition to diligence, talent and opportunity are also very important.
