My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

"Surgery this quickly! Even if going through the chest pain center's green channel, it wouldn't be this fast, right?"

A nurse exclaimed in surprise.

Larger hospitals all have chest pain centers, generally comprising a collaborative rescue system established by multiple disciplines such as the Emergency Department, Cardiology, Imaging, Cardiothoracic Surgery, Thoracic Surgery, Digestive Department, and Respiratory Medicine, providing rapid and accurate diagnosis for patients with acute chest pain.

Patients with chest pain do not need to queue for consultation and examinations.

The initial intent of establishing a chest pain center is because chest pain could potentially be due to acute myocardial infarction, heart disease, aortic dissection, and so on.

These conditions are considered urgent and critical.

Every minute of delay increases the patient's risk of death significantly.

Thus, immediate consultation is essential, followed by a swift diagnosis from an experienced doctor to determine the next treatment plan.

"I thought since we're right on the cardiothoracic surgery's turf, there was no need to go through the Emergency Department's chest pain center. So I went directly to Director Xue for the diagnosis," Zhou Can explained.

"Brilliant!"

"Director Hu has been a monumental mentor to us, the mentor for the entire Cardiothoracic Surgery. Now that he is ill, I believe every doctor in Cardiothoracic Surgery wants to do their utmost to save his life."

"Xiao Zhou, well done!"

Several leading doctors, upon hearing Zhou Can went straight to Director Xue to expedite the diagnosis for Director Hu, strongly approved of his action.

In such cases, one must do everything possible to prioritize saving lives.

Abiding rigidly by so-called rules and not daring to overstep would truly be foolish.

Zhou Can's approach was very much to their liking.

"Director Hu's safety is ensured, let's all focus on the surgery! Making this surgery impeccable would be the best comfort we can offer to Director Hu."

Director Le said to everyone.

And sure enough, this method of boosting morale was incredibly effective.

What was initially a somewhat subdued morale quickly turned high-spirited.

It was as if everyone was injected with a dose of adrenaline.

This also highlighted the very high regard they have for Director Hu.

"The patient's condition is very bad, given the speed of the surgery, it doesn't look optimistic."

Doctor Feng threw cold water on the group.

This surgery had been fraught with complications and twists.

At this moment, the slow surgical pace characteristic of Director Hu's team was glaringly amplified in this surgery.

"Have you established extracorporeal circulation yet are unable to control the patient's vital signs?" Director Le asked somewhat despairingly.

"With your surgical speed, it's practically a death sentence," Doctor Feng said bluntly, making Director Le very uncomfortable.

"Director Le, may I try? I can separate quickly, perhaps, can greatly shorten the surgery time," Zhou Can volunteered, just wanting to give it a try.

Director Le probably wouldn't agree.

"I've observed Doctor Zhou's separation before, not only is it fast, but the skill level is also high. At least not inferior to a specialist level."

Surprisingly, the circulating nurse spoke up for Zhou Can at this moment.

Zhou Can remembered her; she was also the circulating nurse when he and Doctor Long performed the thoracotomy hemostasis surgery.

In that surgery, Zhou Can had been exceptionally brilliant.

Leaving a deep impression on all medical staff.

Doctor Long, especially, had been very courteous to Zhou Can since that surgery.

"How do you know his separation skill level is high?" Director Le stared at the nurse and asked.

"There was one time when Doctor Long carried out a thoracotomy hemostasis surgery, Doctor Zhou demonstrated extremely high surgical skills, even Doctor Long felt inferior. Doctor Zhou's suturing, ligation skill, and various tube placements, I believe you've witnessed it yourself."

The nurse replied confidently and humbly.

She spoke up for Zhou Can at this moment, making Zhou Can very grateful.

Their eyes met, and she winked at Zhou Can.

"Come over and try!"

After some internal struggle, Director Le decided to boldly let Zhou Can take on the task.

Because Zhou Can's performance in usual skin suturing had indeed been very high.

Almost comparable to him, a chief physician.

Director Le decided to see for himself Zhou Can's skill at separation.

"Separate this small blood vessel."

He pointed to a very thin venous blood vessel on the gland for Zhou Can to separate.

Even if a venous vessel ruptures, it's easy to stop the bleeding.

Such a small venous vessel carries completely controllable risk.

Director Le was very cautious when letting Zhou Can try.

Zhou Can put on sterile gloves, stood at the primary surgeon's position, and without wasting words, swiftly and effortlessly separated the vein.

"The speed is indeed fast!"

Director Le carefully inspected the vein and the thymus tissue.

In adults, the thymus mostly comprises of fat.

After the examination, Director Le's eyes brightened, and he couldn't help but marvel.

"This separation skill is indeed good. The process of separating the thymus must be extremely careful; if unsure about any part, stop immediately, understood?"

After seeing for himself, Director Le decided to take some risk and let Zhou Can complete the remaining separation.

As the patient's condition was deteriorating, speeding up the surgery was imperative.

At this moment, perhaps only Zhou Can was suitable for this task.

Another option was to seek help from other departments.

But such measures are not to be taken unless absolutely necessary, indeed hard to face.

Moreover, even if someone was called over, their speed might not be much faster.

In the entire Tuya Hospital, the person known for the fastest surgical speed was Dr. Xu.
