Chapter 433: Chapter 211: Minor Achievement Level Incision Technique, Status Rises Again_2

Moreover, Director Hua and Professor Wu both hope he can perform more surgeries.

As long as Li Jingsheng comes over, isn’t he being cultivated to the extreme?

He spent 388 life points and successfully upgraded his skin incision technique from Master Level to Minor Achievement.

This time, he already possesses the cutting standard of a highly experienced attending doctor, equivalent to a veteran in the operating room, so the safety factor for cutting a patient’s thigh is definitely much higher.

The incision will also be neater, beneficial for suturing and healing.

The incision technique can also be applied when removing bone flaps.

The knife position around the patient’s thigh near the knee area has already been marked.

Li Jingsheng confirmed it was correct before proceeding with the incision.

There is an extremely fine artery inside the thigh, known as the femoral artery.

Many cardiovascular interventions are accessed through the femoral artery.

If it’s cut, the consequences are no different from cutting a major artery in the neck.

The risk of surgery is self-evident.

However, on the other hand, if the neck artery is cut, it is hard to stop the bleeding. But if the femoral artery in the thigh is damaged, as long as it’s not at the thigh root, there are basically many ways to quickly stop the bleeding.

For example, the most commonly used method is tourniquet blood stoppage.

There’s also the compression method, both effective for stopping bleeding.

Large vessels can’t be stopped with electrocoagulation; vascular repair is the most common technique for stopping the bleeding.

Professor Wu watched with slight tension as Li Jingsheng calmly cut open the patient’s leg skin, then continued slicing down one blade at a time.

"This prodigy, his incision technique has obviously improved remarkably, it’s truly astonishing!"

Professor Wu was dazzled by what he saw.

Li Jingsheng’s mindset, technique, and even the incision he made were much more advanced compared to when he cut the wrist area. This progress is truly startling and made all the doctors feel ’envious.’

How can they not be envious?

To advance from Master Level to Minor Achievement level, they need to train for three to five years, and this requires being naturally perceptive and diligent.

Look at Li Jingsheng; he achieved a leap in incision skill in just one surgery.

Li Jingsheng directly ignored their envy.

He maintained a stable mindset, carefully sensing the feedback from the knife.

That meticulous knife feedback has become clearer than ever.

To put it another way, the knife sensitivity has become even sharper.

Now, if he were to cut A4 paper, with his eyes closed, he could cut as many layers as he wanted within three layers.

It’s not boasting; he has this confidence based on knife feedback.

At this moment, he was meticulously discerning the tactile feedback as the surgical knife sliced through different tissues of the patient’s body.

Because of this, he would always finish one cut and then ’rest’ for a long time before making the second cut.

Outsiders think he is resting and adjusting his state, but that’s not the truth.

He was striving to distinguish every type of knife feedback and remember them.

When cutting the skin, the knife feedback would be relatively rough, like slicing through kraft paper.

This is because human skin appears smooth but is actually coarse.

Additionally, he can derive a relatively precise thickness from the tactile feedback when cutting deeper into the skin.

When cutting through the fat layer, the knife feedback feels sticky.

The thickness of the fat layers isn’t consistent; some are thick, while others are thinner.

This sharp knife sensitivity is clearly superior to what Master Level incision can compare to.

Moreover, his sensitivity to blood vessels has become noticeably sharper and more meticulous.

Previously, he would only sense when he was close to major blood vessels, but now this ability has been further enhanced.

When the knife blade approached a vessel, just a slight press or slice, he could immediately tell. Moreover, he could further discern whether he had already hit the vessel wall.

This equated to an extra layer of insurance.

Previously, he couldn’t sense the vessel wall.

"Surgical progression really equates to gaining distinctly different new abilities at each level. It’s amazing."

Now that he can sense the presence of vessel walls, he can also be aware of cutting into smaller blood vessels. Yet, he still can’t promptly avoid them.

Often, his hands are quicker than his brain, cutting into them, then his brain receiving the feedback from his fingers.

Removing the bone flap was much easier than imagined.

Moreover, it rewarded him with 102 life points, and his proficiency in incision technique increased somewhat too.

Afterwards, bone grafting.

"Dr. Li, can I suture the thigh incision?"

Dr. Qin watched eagerly from the side.

Under Professor Wu, only Dr. Qin and Ruan Xiaoqin were capable of performing the suturing task.

Now, with Li Jingsheng as the chief surgeon, Dr. Qin wanted the opportunity to practice, having no choice but to humbly seek Li Jingsheng’s permission.

"You should ask Professor Wu. If he believes you are capable of suturing the thigh incision, the opportunity can be given to you. The tension in the thigh is considerable, and must be taken into account during suturing."

Li Jingsheng’s current ability indeed surpasses Dr. Qin.

He truly has the qualification to offer him a few pointers.

"Give it a try!"

Professor Wu, despite having several flaws, is quite dedicated to training the doctors under him.

Unlike some doctors who are overly cautious, keeping everything to themselves.

"Thank you, Director Wu! Thank you, Dr. Li, for giving me this training opportunity. I will suture well."

Dr. Qin was thrilled upon hearing this.

Originally, he had a fair chance to advance to attending this year.

Because he had just completed his first year as chief resident.

According to departmental rules, usually one undergoes advanced training, then returns to serve as chief resident for a year, and then begins queuing for an attending contract.

If there is no pressure on the quota, after serving as chief resident, one can be appointed as attending within a maximum of three months.
