534: Doctor's Kindness
These four words are normally non-existent, but in the eyes of Director Li and the many doctors present, they were absolutely perfect!
They seemed to be immersed in Zhong Qi's wonderful rhythm, and they couldn't help but forget the time...
At 3:15 PM, Su Yue completed the last inch of tracheal repair. "Wipe my sweat."
He took a deep breath, let the nurse help him wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then said, "Prepare for suturing."
"Surgical needle, needle holder, 70 absorbable sutures."
Su Yue's voice was still steady, but the pitch had dropped significantly.
However, this slightly lower pitch made the doctors sigh with relief; they had thought this person would never get tired.
"Prepare to remove the chest expander," Su Yue continued, but his hands were already beginning the suturing operation.
About ten minutes later, he finished the suturing. Director Li was already ready to remove the chest expander.
She had performed many surgeries and was adept at removing the chest expander.
But just as she was releasing the fixation and preparing to remove it, she suddenly heard Zhong Qi next to her say, "Wait!"
The sound made her hand tremble, and then a stream of blood spurted out!
"Are you crazy?! What are you thinking?!"
Director Li's eyes widened. She had been too confident just now and had forgotten a step!
This caused the back leg of the chest expander to scrape the pulmonary artery!
In just a few seconds, the small chest cavity was filled with blood!
Director Li panicked.
After over two hours of intense concentration, she had made such a low-level mistake!
Even though Su Yue had already completed the most difficult part, she had plunged this surgery into a new challenge!
"Still spacing out?!" A scolding voice jolted her out of her daze. "Quickly support the chest expander!"
Zhong Qi's voice was unquestionable, and Director Li had no room for hesitation. She continued to do as he said.
The chest expander was propped up again, and Su Yue continued, "Prepare for blood transfusion! 30 Prolene suture! Surgical needle! Quickly!"
Although the chest expander had been propped up again, Director Li's face was still extremely pale.
She knew deeply that it was irreversible at this moment.
If possible, she would naturally try her best to save her, but at this moment, all hope was gone.
The pulmonary artery is adjacent to the heart, and the opening for the chest expander during tracheal repair is in the center.
It was precisely because she understood these things that she felt despair.
To suture the pulmonary artery at this point, another incision would have to be made.
However, opening up in this situation would undoubtedly mean the patient would not survive.
Thirty seconds of shock, arrhythmia, three minutes of cardiac arrest, eight minutes of brain death.
Where was there time to make another incision?
Su Yue had clearly made all the preparations; all that was needed was to remove the chest expander!
Such a simple operation had caused a huge disaster.
Such a low-level medical accident was enough to ruin his reputation!
A piercing alarm suddenly sounded.
"Blood pressure below normal!"
"Arrhythmia!"
"Heartbeat weakening!"
A series of bad news struck Director Li's brain like thunder.
She knew her career was ruined, and what's more, such a mistake meant this patient had died in her hands!
Her heart started racing, and her vision blurred for a moment.
"Is the Type B blood ready?!"
"Prepare for extracorporeal circulation!"
Su Yue's firm and loud voice came, waking Director Li from her dazed state.
She looked at the young man, bewildered and confused.
What?
He still thought there was hope?
Are you kidding me?
Pulmonary artery rupture and unable to be sutured. In this situation, how could there still be hope?
However, this confusion gradually brought her back to reality.
She watched Su Yue's series of actions in confusion, and a glimmer of hope gradually rose in her heart.
Does he really have a way?
Recalling his miraculous tracheal repair technique, Director Li's eyes returned to normal.
This time, she gave her absolute best effort, striving for this last hope!
She didn't want her mistake to kill such a young woman in the prime of her life!
"100mg Lidocaine, 1mg Epinephrine injection!"
"Keep her alive for me!"
Holding a surgical needle in his hand, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Su Yue directly reached his hand into the chest expander!
Seeing this scene, Director Li was stunned. The other doctors were also terrified: "What are you doing?!"
"Dr. Su! Are you crazy?!"
"What is he doing?!"
However, Su Yue's gaze left them speechless.
The meaning conveyed in those sharp eyes was clear: "If you want her to live, shut your mouths!"
Then an even more suffocating scene occurred.
They saw... Su Yue closed his eyes! But his arm was still moving!
His hand was still moving in the small chest cavity!
What on earth was he going to do?!
Could it be that he was a lunatic?!
A lunatic with exquisite skills?!
No one knew what Su Yue was doing at this moment, only he himself knew.
Perhaps in the entire history of clinical surgery, there had never been such a case!
Su Yue knew very well that if the normal plan were followed, Tang Xiao would undoubtedly die at this moment.
If he wanted her to live, he had to use extraordinary means!
He closed his eyes, and in the darkness, the anatomical diagram of the human body from his mind palace appeared before him.
He knew where his hand was, so it was naturally easy to distinguish where the various internal organs were!
He felt the pulmonary artery, and with the help of his "dexterous fingers," he began blind suturing!
If you know the direction of the needle, the length of the thread, the location of the tear, and can accurately find the position...
Then this is indeed feasible!
For Su Yue, this was the best way to stop the bleeding within three minutes!
And the only way!
However, this horrifying scene stunned everyone present, including the nurses!
They watched Zhong Qi with his eyes closed, but the thread was going into the patient's body bit by bit!
He actually started suturing?!
What kind of deity is this?!
Director Li's expression was as if she had seen a ghost or god!
How is this possible?

Could it be that this guy has some kind of superpower?!
Does he have a mind's eye that can see things beyond his sight?!
Although it's not as exaggerated as a mind's eye, Su Yue's "sight" at this moment was indeed undergoing suturing!
In the small chest cavity, his fingers could not move completely; he could only use three fingers to deal with the wound!
However, in this situation, Su Yue really succeeded in stopping the bleeding!
He used the suture scissors to cut the suture and then withdrew his hand.
"Hoo!... Hoo!" At this moment, Zhong Qi was breathing heavily and looked at Director Li with eyes like ice.
Director Li shivered, but before she could explain or thank him, Zhong Qi's gaze had already moved away.
Although he was breathing heavily, his gaze was like an eagle, probing everything before him.
The entire operating room fell silent, seemingly waiting for Su Yue's inspection.
It remained silent for a full ten minutes.
He saw Tang Xiao's heart rate gradually stabilize, and her blood pressure began to rise.
Everything was getting better.
At this point, Su Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's finish up. Director Li, you're old, so don't bother with it."
Su Yue emphasized the words "Director Li" heavily.
The second assistant immediately understood and, regardless of Director Li's status, stepped forward to take charge of the final suturing.
At this moment, Director Li felt ashamed and did not say a word.
Not only did she not help at all, but she almost killed the patient.
However, the shock in her heart had not yet subsided.
Blind suturing?
This was definitely a medical god descending to the mortal world!
How could a mortal do such a thing?!
The video of this surgery must be uploaded to an academic website; it will definitely cause a sensation!
Su Yue's hands were trembling, which was also the reason he didn't choose to finish the suturing himself.
He felt that he could no longer stitch.
This two-and-a-half-hour battle had almost exhausted all his physical strength.
Coupled with the high-intensity use of his mind palace just now, his brain was feeling a bit dizzy.
The mental energy required for this sustained simulation was no less than the calculations on an A380.
However... thankfully, the person was finally saved.
The surgery had been going on for two and a half hours.
At this moment, outside the operating room, Zhang Zhiping was talking to a doctor in a white coat, the topic naturally revolving around Tang Xiao's surgery.
The doctor tried to keep his tone steady and said politely, "Mr. Zhang, this tracheal repair surgery is a very challenging procedure, both domestically and internationally. And it can easily cause irreversible damage. To be honest, even if Dr. Ma were here, he might not be willing to take on such a high-risk surgery."
Zhang Zhiping already knew the difficulty of the surgery and the slim chance of success, which made him even more distrustful of the intern forensic doctor.
He thought to himself, isn't this less than a thirty percent chance of success?
With this thought, he impulsively wanted to rush into the operating room again, with only one thought in his mind: "Must change the person quickly!"
However, as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by the doctor next to him.
"Mr. Zhang, calm down! If the surgery was going to fail, it would have failed already. It's been over two hours now, which means the situation is actually relatively smooth!"
Hearing the doctor's words, Zhang Zhiping was stunned.
He thought that since the surgery had gone on for so long without problems, perhaps that young man really had something unique?
The doctor added, "Furthermore, chest surgeries are performed in sterile laboratories. If you rush in like this, you will inevitably bring in a large number of bacteria. If you want your daughter to die from complications, then you can try it now!"
The doctor's words completely extinguished Zhang Zhiping's idea of rushing into the operating room.
He felt a bit discouraged, looked at the doctor, nodded, and said, "I understand, thank you, Doctor."
Seeing Zhang Zhiping calm down, the doctor left, otherwise, he would always be a hidden danger.
Time passed by the minute, and although Zhang Zhiping no longer tried to rush into the operating room, his gaze never left the light indicating that the surgery was still in progress.
He paced anxiously in front of the operating room door, occasionally looking up to see if the surgery was over.
Chang Yan kept her head down, her eyes vacant. A Qi looked at the pained expressions of the couple and, although he couldn't empathize, he felt a bit moved.
He thought long and hard, trying to find a way to stabilize the couple's emotions.
However, before he could think of anything, he heard Sun Ting whisper, "The surgery light is off..."
A Qi immediately snapped back to attention, his gaze shifting slightly, and he saw that the red light had indeed gone out.
But what kind of result this represented, no one knew until the doctor came out of the operating room.
A Qi also stood up and walked to the operating room door, silently praying, "Hope everything is okay."
At this moment, the few of them were staring nervously at the operating room door, their hearts complex and contradictory.
They were both looking forward to Tang Xiao's safe return and afraid of hearing bad news.
However, whether they were willing to accept it or not, sounds were already coming from behind the door.
It was the sound of the operating table's wheels rubbing against the tile floor, and the approaching footsteps...
Crash! The door was suddenly pushed open by the nurse, "Move! Move! What are you blocking the door for?! Do you want to kill her?!"
The nurse's voice was very anxious.
Although she understood the family's urgency, blocking the door could easily delay things.
As soon as they heard the words "kill her," the people present immediately moved away.
And Zhang Zhiping's face was full of pleasant surprise: "So my daughter is okay?!"
He grabbed Director Li's hand, "Thank you so much, Director Li!"
He simply didn't believe that an intern forensic doctor could perform such a difficult surgery, so at this moment, he completely excluded Su Yue.
However, Director Li gave an awkward smile, her clasped hand feeling a bit stiff.
She looked at Zhang Zhiping and said, "I didn't do much. The chief surgeon this time was Dr. Su."
Zhang Zhiping froze, his hand still holding Director Li's, frozen in mid-air.
He looked at Su Yue in disbelief and asked, "The tracheal repair surgery, you did it?"
At this moment, Su Yue's face was a little pale.
He had walked too quickly just now, and coupled with the fact that he hadn't eaten anything until now, he felt dizzy.
Hearing Zhang Zhiping's words, he snorted coldly and said weakly, "You're welcome."
Zhang Zhiping gritted his teeth, feeling extremely ashamed of his previous distrust and hasty remarks!
At this moment, Lao Wang's voice came again: "I said it! Even if this surgery was going to be done, it would definitely be done by Su Yue! Even if Dr. Ma from your chest surgery department came back, it would be useless!"
Zhang Zhiping released Director Li's hand and looked at Su Yue. Then he bowed deeply to Su Yue!
"Thank you! I retract my previous rash remarks! You are indeed a good doctor! A true healer with a benevolent heart!"
Zhang Zhiping was a soldier; he would never bow unless he was truly impressed!
This young man's courage, perseverance, decisiveness, and skill were all first-class!
Especially after hearing how difficult this surgery was, Zhang Zhiping's admiration for Su Yue became even more uncontrollable.
He understood very well that a surgery of this difficulty could not have a one hundred percent success rate, so he admired Su Yue's superb technique and big heart even more!
Zhang Zhiping knew that since there couldn't be a one hundred percent success rate, why did Su Yue act as if it was one hundred percent successful when he appeared before?
That was simply because, as a doctor, and also considering the difficulty for the patient's family to make a choice, he acted that way.
"Thank you! Dr. Su!" Zhang Zhiping said excitedly, "If you ever need my help, I, Zhang Zhiping, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
He really couldn't say any other words of thanks, but at this moment, this was enough to prove his sincerity.
Su Yue smiled.
He could see what Zhang Zhiping was thinking.
"You actually think I would dare to do it without confidence?"
However, he didn't explain anything. The waves of dizziness made him almost unable to stand steadily.
He patted Zhang Zhiping's shoulder in front of him and sat down heavily on a hospital chair.
