My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points-Chapter 74 - 68 This is No Joking Matter
Zhou Can's Wound Cleaning Skill is currently Level 2, the lowest level of standardized training, not very advanced.
Handling this wound is more than sufficient for him.
If it weren't for Dr. Lu, that blockhead, using an electrosurgical knife to char both of the patient's bleeding points. The difficulty of cleaning the wound would have been even smaller.
As for when the fragments were removed, there was minor arterial spraying.
It's possible that when Dr. Lu was removing the fragments, the sharp edges of the fragments cut the blood vessel.
It's also possible that the fragment had initially punctured the blood vessel.
Before removal, because it was embedded in the muscle, it was tightly compressed.
So there was no bleeding.
After removal, the blockage at the rupture in the blood vessel was gone, causing blood to spurt directly.
This is why when someone is stabbed by a sharp object, and the object is stuck in the body, it must not be pulled out.
If not removed, there might only be slow bleeding.
There's still hope if one can get to the hospital in time.
Once removed, with the pressure gone, severe bleeding is likely to occur.
The injured would quickly die.
"This branch artery has been punctured by the fragment. How do you suggest we handle it?"
Zhou Can pointed to the ruptured blood vessel, asking Doctor Fu to inspect it.
This demonstrates basic respect towards a senior doctor.
Even if his skills are strong, without respect for senior doctors, he wouldn't get far.
He also handled another point well.
Zhou Can didn't blame Dr. Lu for cutting the blood vessel, instead, he stated the fragment had punctured it.
Competition, even intense competition, is acceptable, but undermining each other in front of patients is not.

"Hmm, the damage to the blood vessel isn't too severe. A vascular anastomosis surgery should repair it."
Doctor Fu was most worried about damage to the Femoral Artery.
The current situation is much better than expected.
"May I perform the anastomosis? I have done several under Dr. Xu and so far, there have been no failures."
Zhou Can quickly pitched himself.
After all the effort spent to only gain 1 Experience Point in Wound Cleaning Skill, he was not easily satisfied.
Staying voluntarily overtime.
Just to quickly accumulate a large amount of surgical experience points.
Whenever there's an opportunity, he would seize it like a hungry wolf.
"I'll handle the vascular repair, and you can do the suturing of the skin!"
Doctor Fu, having seen Dr. Lu's poor skills, was rather apprehensive.
Such a crucial task as vascular anastomosis, he absolutely dared not entrust to a junior doctor lightly.
"Okay! Thank you, Doctor Fu."
Zhou Can successfully securing a suturing opportunity was quite good.
Any opportunity to perform would gradually build Doctor Fu's trust.
How could he lack training opportunities in the future?
Doctor Fu's suturing ability had reached the level of attending physician, watching him perform vascular anastomosis was truly enjoyable. There was much to learn about anastomosis techniques.
Once he finished, a patency test.
Blood flow was smooth, the vascular anastomosis very successful.
Even a weaker attending physician is still an attending, the level of proficiency is evident. Not something a resident can compare to.
"Dr. Zhou, I'll leave the rest to you!"
Doctor Fu gave up his position.
However, learning from Dr. Lu's mishap, he didn't go off to rest but stood by to observe and give guidance at any moment.
Zhou Can had just finished the first stitch when Doctor Fu's expression brightened.
His eyes revealed admiration, and a smile appeared on his face.
It seems that Dr. Xu did not exaggerate this young man's skills!
Next, Zhou Can proceeded with unstoppable momentum, stitching both quickly and well.
His performance nearly startled Doctor Fu's eyes out.
Nurse Liu Xia was equally shocked.
Is this really just a resident doctor who started working three days ago? How can he seem even stronger than Dr. Lu?
"The suturing is complete, please inspect, Doctor Fu!"
Zhou Can had properly treated the patient's wound, and this perilous surgery finally drew to a successful close.
He also successfully overcame Dr. Lu's blockade and showcased his surgical prowess.
"Ha ha, very nicely stitched! From now on, you can take care of suturing the skin in my surgeries."
Doctor Fu laughed heartily.
A crisis successfully averted, it felt like surviving a massive life-and-death ordeal for him.
"Take the patient out! Because he has a coagulation disorder, first give him a bed in the observation area for a day to prevent any mishap."
Such minor surgeries at Tuya Hospital are usually treated on the fly.
For those with postoperative risks, the conventional treatment is to keep the patient in the observation area for a day or two.
After sending the patient out, Doctor Fu sighed in relief.
Just as he was about to call Director Lou to report, Director Lou had already arrived.
He rushed directly into the surgery room.
"Where is the patient with the unstoppable bleeding?"
Director Lou asked with a serious face.
As the director of the Emergency Department, his job might look glorious, but the pressure was greater than anyone's.
He had to constantly find ways to improve the rescue rate of the Emergency Department, all while trying to generate revenue and enhance the diagnostic and treatment standards. He spent his days in constant fear, praying the doctors under him wouldn't make grave mistakes.
If a Level 2 surgery patient died on the operating table, the entire Emergency Department would become a laughing stock.
The dean and the vice dean in charge of operations would definitely point their fingers and curse.
"The surgery is done and he's cured!"
Doctor Fu reported truthfully.
He was genuinely frustrated.
If they had identified the patient's coagulation disorder before the surgery and managed to stop his bleeding through a series of procedures, it would have been a commendable achievement.
But now, after what Dr. Lu did, it would be good enough if they escaped without being rebuked.
"Cured? Doctor Fu, this is no joke, and there's no room for falsification. If you made a blunder out of fear of criticism, and hastily managed the patient leading to fatal consequences, no one could bear that responsibility."
Director Lou, upon hearing this, not only showed no joy but his face darkened even more.
"Rest assured, I, Fu Chachun, may not be outstanding in my skills or achievements, but I do not shirk responsibility where I should not. I would never joke about a patient's life. That is the basic morality of a doctor. I guarantee with my character, that the patient is indeed cured."
Doctor Fu was dead serious, his tone sincere.
Director Lou stared into his eyes for a full twenty seconds, seeing that Doctor Fu's gaze was calm, he then somewhat believed him.
He would still need to personally check on that patient later to be assured.
"Dealing with a patient who has coagulation dysfunction is already difficult to stop bleeding. Adding to that, a ruptured femoral artery, even I might not be able to stop the bleeding, yet Doctor Fu managed to successfully stop the bleeding in such a short time and complete the surgery, which indeed surprises me. It seems your medical skills have improved a lot!"
Director Lou's tone softened a bit.
Doctor Fu felt a flush of shame.
It wasn't his skills that had greatly improved, but the arrival of an exceptionally skilled resident had saved him this time.
"Describe the entire treatment process! Also, the patient has a coagulation dysfunction, wasn't there any pre-surgery examination?" Director Lou's voice turned harsh again.
Insufficient pre-surgery examination was a serious oversight.
Surgery is no child's play, such basic errors are absolutely unacceptable.
"The surgery was performed before the results of the blood routine were out, it was indeed my oversight." Doctor Fu, being a bold man, took the responsibility upon himself.
Originally, the person most accountable for this issue was Dr. Lu.
