Chapter 65 Those who drown are all good swimmers
Doctor Jin sutured the dura mater, placed drainage, and then put the cut skull back... The entire suturing process was extremely bloody, and Li Quan was terrified at every step.
It was his first time watching a craniotomy.
Unfortunately, I was kicked out of the operating room by Director Xiong during the craniotomy, so I couldn't watch it. Now I can only watch the ending.
However, it also broadened his horizons and he learned a lot of useful surgical knowledge.
After the suturing was completed, the assistant carefully lowered the headrest and laid the patient flat. Director Xiong carefully checked the sutured wound again and confirmed that it was correct. Then he turned to the anesthesiologist and said, "The suturing is complete, the patient can wake up from the anesthesia!"
"OK!"
The anesthesiologist seemed accustomed to this level of surgery and began to complete the anesthesia work step by step.
…
Five minutes later, the anesthesiologist ended the anesthesia and opened the patient's eyelids to check the pupils.
normal.
Everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
At this point, the entire craniotomy is completed.
Professor Bei Ke has regained consciousness, but he looks very weak. His fingers moved slightly twice, which shows that the rescue was very successful and the patient did not suffer from hemiplegia.
It is not convenient to conduct various body function tests for the time being. The patient needs to rest for a few days and then recover for a period of time before conducting tests.
The patient is able to wake up, his fingers can move, and his brain waves are normal, which is already very, very good.
Except for the second assistant, everyone in the operating room had a happy smile on their face.
Full of joy of success.
It is really not easy for so many people to work together to complete a rescue operation.
If there is any mistake in any link, all the previous efforts may be wasted.
"Okay, send the patient to the ward! You medical staff must pay close attention to the patient's condition. If there are any abnormalities, notify me immediately."
Director Xiong also knew that this patient’s identity was not simple and needed to be treated with more caution.
"Doctor Li, you have made the greatest contribution to the successful completion of this operation . To be honest, before opening the cranial cavity, I would never have believed that the silver needles you inserted could control intracranial bleeding. Even if the veins were broken, it would be impossible to stop it. Facts speak louder than words. What I saw after opening the skull really overturned my understanding of medicine."
"Thank you for letting bygones be bygones. If it's convenient, it's already noon, and I'd like to treat you to a simple meal."
Director Xiong's attitude towards Li Quan changed 180 degrees.
"You are sick! And you are seriously ill!"
Li Quan stared at Director Xiong and spoke in a very serious tone.
"Uh..." The smile on Director Xiong's face froze.
He was a chief physician after all, and held a high position in the hospital. He had already apologized to Li Quan humbly, but Li Quan still called him sick. He really couldn't accept it.
"Xiao Li, please forgive others when you can!" This time, even Professor Tang couldn't stand it anymore.
He hurriedly spoke out to persuade him.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay... Doctor Li was just joking with me!" Director Xiong forced a smile that was uglier than crying, with anger surging in his chest.
It's just that I can't get angry because of my face.
After all, they are all respectable people with status and culture.
"I'm not kidding you, Director Xiong, you are really sick!" Li Quan said seriously again.
"You, don't go too far..." Director Xiong couldn't bear it any longer. His face turned green, his teeth were chattering, and he clenched his fists, wishing he could have a fight with Li Quan.
The anesthesiologist next to him seemed to have noticed something.
"Director Xiong, don't be so angry. I don't think Doctor Li Quan is scolding you."
After his reminder, Director Xiong thought about it carefully. Although Li Quan's tone was serious, neither his expression nor his tone of voice sounded like he was cursing.
Because there is a lack of anger when scolding someone.
Li Quan seemed very calm when he spoke, his eyes were clear and full of kindness.
"Am I, am I really sick?" Director Xiong suppressed his anger and asked, pointing at his nose.
The other people in the operating room almost burst out laughing.
This scene is funny no matter how you look at it.
People who don’t know might think that Li Quan and Director Xiong were performing a crosstalk.
"Yes, you are very likely seriously ill, but you just don't realize it." Li Quan nodded seriously.
Only then did everyone realize that Li Quan had not been scolding Director Xiong from beginning to end, but was kindly reminding Director Xiong that there was something wrong with his health.
Everyone was very curious, how could Li Quan tell at a glance that Director Xiong was sick?
So what disease did Director Xiong have?
"That's impossible, I've always been in good health!" Director Xiong is a senior doctor and knows all kinds of medical knowledge. If there really was a disease in his body, wouldn't he know about it?
But Li Quan looked serious, yet also seemed to be joking.
"Can I take your pulse?" Li Quan took this opportunity to earn 10 skill points.
"please!"
Director Xiong also stretched out his wrist doubtfully.
"You need to sit down and remain calm to ensure the accuracy of the pulse diagnosis results." Based on this point, Li Quan was able to infer that Director Xiong probably knew nothing about Chinese medicine.
How can you take a pulse while standing?
If the posture is incorrect, it is easy to cause distortion of the pulse and the results of taking the pulse will be inaccurate.
After Director Xiong sat down, Li Quan pressed the Cun, Guan and Chi points on Director Xiong's left hand with his right index finger, middle finger and ring finger.
Why do we have to use three fingers to take the pulse?
Because the three fingers correspond to the three energizers of the human body, the patient's condition can be thoroughly checked from head to toe.
Li Quan closed his eyes and carefully felt Director Xiong's pulse.
Before taking Director Xiong's pulse, he insisted that Director Xiong was ill. That was because he used the child's visual diagnosis technique to see that Director Xiong was ill.
Now, taking the pulse can more accurately locate the specific location of the lesion.
After a long time, Li Quan withdrew his hand and looked up at Director Xiong.
"Doctor Li, have you found out what's going on?" Director Xiong seemed very casual.
He didn't seem to believe Li Quan's diagnosis.
Others watched with curiosity.
"Director Xiong, have you felt anything unusual in your stomach recently?" Li Quan asked.
"Yes, a little. In the past few months, my stomach has often felt uncomfortable. I think it's gastritis, an old problem. After taking medicine, it will be better in a few days."
Director Xiong still didn't care.
However, he also overestimated Li Quan's pulse-taking ability, because Li Quan did diagnose his illness.
This ability to take the pulse might not be a big deal in ancient times.
In modern times, that is quite remarkable.
"Do you feel any pain in your waist?" Li Quan asked again.
"It happens occasionally. Actually, it's nothing. It's just an occupational disease that most of our surgeons have. Sometimes we have to stand in an operating room for more than ten hours and have to turn our waists. It's normal to have lumbar muscle strain."
Director Xiong didn't take it seriously at all.
Although Dr. Li has some skills, he is just that good. He made a big fuss about these two minor ailments and described them as serious.
Li Quan saw Director Xiong's disapproving expression, but he was not angry.
Instead, he smiled and said, "Among those who drown every year, at least 80% can swim. Among those who are electrocuted, more than 90% have electrical knowledge."
