126: You have to accept what the circulating nurse says, no matter how unpleasant it sounds!
Chapter 126: Even if the circulating Nurse’s words are unpleasant, you must endure them!
"Director, Director Cui, why are you here...?"
Seeing Director Cui and a female Doctor they had never met before walk in, the medical staff in operating room number 4 began to greet them in surprise.
"Lin Yi asked me to be the chief Surgeon for this operation. I ask for everyone's full cooperation to ensure the smooth progress of every operation."
This was the first time Director Cui had introduced himself to the medical staff in an operating room in such a way.
Before each operation, the medical staff should already know the chief Surgeon's name. This kind of temporary team-up model could only be pulled off by Lin Yi...
"This is Director Ning Yumei from the Medical Administration Department of the Provincial Health Department. She will be my assistant."
Director Cui looked at Ning Yumei beside him and introduced her to the medical staff in the operating room.
Although it was his first meeting with the newly appointed Director Ning, Director Cui had heard that before becoming a Director, she had also served as a chief Surgeon in a Hospital. Having her as an assistant would certainly not be a problem...
"Hello everyone, please don't mind my position. Once I enter this operating room, I am Director Cui's assistant. Please proceed as usual."
Director Ning quickly added to Director Cui's words.
Having been a Doctor herself, she was very clear that in the operating room, the chief Surgeon was everything.
She had to adjust her attitude to better complete the upcoming surgical work.
However, the current situation was quite special. In this operating room, it was truly difficult to distinguish whether Director Cui was the chief Surgeon or the fleeting glimpse of Lin Yi was...
"What's going on? The Director is assisting Doctor Lin, and the Director who manages the Director is assisting the Director!"
"Doctor Lin is truly amazing. He's only been at work for a few days, and he's already directing the Director!"
"The Director of the Medical Administration Department came to be an assistant to Lin Yi's assistant. This whole thing is full of weirdness!"
"Lin Yi's awesomeness is something ordinary Doctors can't learn. Even Director Bai from Thoracic Surgery, who is incredibly skilled, doesn't get this kind of treatment, right...?"
The Emergency Department medical staff in the operating room, while busy with their work, felt a surge of pride.
In the Emergency Department operating room, even big leaders like the Director and a department Director could be invited to help. If this got out, every Emergency Department medical staff member would feel proud.
But everyone also clearly understood that the Emergency Department could receive so much attention and undergo such significant changes in the Hospital, all thanks to the new Doctor, Lin Yi.
It's true that capable people shine wherever they go...
"This abdominal incision mark, was it drawn by Lin Yi?"
"Is operating according to the mark the best choice?"
Standing in the chief Surgeon's position, looking at the exposed surgical site of the patient, Director Cui frowned and asked the medical staff in the operating room.
When entering this operating room, Lin Yi had specifically instructed that the abdominal incision must be made according to his marked position.
But looking at the marked position on the patient, Director Cui always felt it wasn't quite accurate...
"Yes, Director Cui, under normal circumstances, for gallbladder open surgery, the position should be a bit higher to be appropriate."
"The marked position is a bit low, and the angle of inclination is too large. I'm afraid that after the incision, the best surgical field of view will not be obtained."
When Director Ning used to be a Surgeon, the most common operations she performed were gallbladder surgeries. With just a glance, she could roughly determine the best incision position for the patient.
But this mark on the patient was clearly not the best choice...
"Furthermore, current minimally invasive gallbladder surgeries are fast and have fewer complications. Why would Doctor Lin choose this laborious and thankless open surgery?"
After expressing her opinion on the marked incision position, Director Ning then asked with confusion.
According to statistics from all medical institutions in Long Province, over ninety percent of gallbladder surgeries are performed using the more advanced minimally invasive cholecystectomy.
She really couldn't understand why the Central Hospital Emergency Department would still adopt this laborious and thankless open surgery.
The larger the patient's incision, the greater the damage to the abdomen, and the greater the likelihood of complications such as infection in the later stage...
Moreover, open surgery takes at least an hour longer than minimally invasive surgery.
Director Ning was now somewhat skeptical, adopting such a complex surgical method and having to complete more than thirty surgeries in a short period of time, this was simply an impossible task...
"Director Cui, we are not professional Surgeons, and we don't know why Doctor Lin drew the marks that way."
"But I still advise Director Cui to operate strictly according to Doctor Lin's marked area, because facts have proven that Doctor Lin has no possibility of making a mistake!"
The circulating Nurse seemed to be explaining to Director Cui, but her insistence was beyond doubt.
This was not the circulating Nurse's arrogance; it was mainly Lin Yi who gave her this confidence.
No matter which medical staff member, after yesterday's experience of 22 surgeries, no one dared to question the marks made by Lin Yi in the slightest.
Lin Yi proved with one surgery after another that no matter how outrageous his marks were, they were the best choice for that patient's abdominal incision, and perhaps the only choice...
"As for Assistant Ning's doubts, I still suggest you keep them."
"After this operation, you will understand that for the patient's gallbladder, Doctor Lin's surgery is the best choice."
Towards the so-called Director of the Medical Administration Department, the circulating Nurse was not so good-tempered and directly spoke coldly to her face.
Currently, in the Emergency Department operating room, no medical staff member dared to question Lin Yi's expertise in gallbladder surgery.
And as the circulating Nurse of this operating room, she also had the right to tell an assistant to shut up, even if the other party was some so-called Director, she had no right to question Lin Yi...
Director Cui and Director Ning exchanged glances, their faces slightly red.
Since taking on leadership roles, being directly contradicted like this had never happened again.
However, both were truly Doctors by profession, and after a brief moment of awkwardness, they quickly composed themselves.
In the operating room, let alone being directly contradicted by the circulating Nurse, even if they were cursed at, they would have to endure it.
These were the rules in the operating room; she had that right...
"What is so extraordinary about Doctor Lin that even the circulating Nurse is so completely convinced and admiring!"
What puzzled Director Ning even more was the circulating Nurse's attitude towards Doctor Lin Yi.
In the operating room of any Hospital, it was rare for a circulating Nurse to protect the authority of a chief Surgeon so strongly...
"Scalpel!"
Handing the scalpel to the chief Surgeon, Director Cui, and seeing him strictly follow the marks on the patient's abdomen for the abdominal incision.
Ning Yumei had no choice but to suppress her doubts and concentrate on her duties as an assistant...
"I..."
"This... what kind of divine Doctor made these incision marks!"
As layers of skin tissue were peeled back and the surgical field was fully exposed.
Director Ning's eyes widened, and she couldn't even believe what she was seeing...
