Chapter 123 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 123 ...
He is now trying to extend the shelf life of the drug. He doesn't need too much of this second-generation drug; just one or two vials will suffice as a backup.
However, Lin Wei obviously didn't need to worry about this anymore. With her hard work, she finally mastered finger replantation techniques to an A+ level. Only then did she go back to perform nerve suturing surgery on her hand. The first case was an A+ level, and the second case was also an A+ level, but she could feel that it was much easier than before.
But how could it not be easier? In the past, we were suturing blood vessels and nerves that were 0.1mm thick, but now we are suturing blood vessels and nerves that are 1mm thick or thicker than 1mm. The difference is obvious.
With her confidence soaring, Lin Wei stayed in the simulation room to practice. Finally, after the hundredth surgery, she mastered the nerve suturing surgery on her hand to the S level. She believed that if she were to perform finger replantation surgery at this time, it would be much easier than before.
But clearly, she doesn't need it.
Now that we have the technology and the medicine, we can do Zheng Heng's surgery at the same time. But just in case, Lin Wei performed a few more nerve suturing procedures on her hands after arriving in S.
She wanted to firmly weld her skills onto the S, allowing no room for error.
However, before she could perform surgery on Zheng Heng, a new patient arrived in the operating room that evening—a man who needed a finger replantation.
"Dr. Lin, can you do it?" the neurosurgeon called immediately to ask.
Lin Wei nodded after hearing this. "It can be done. Have you had a blood test and an infectious disease test?" she asked as she walked.
Neurosurgical nurse: "We're checking. The results will be available in 20 minutes."
Lin Wei quickly washed and disinfected her hands before getting back to the operating table. Since there weren't many surgeries that night, the rotating and resident doctors all came to watch her perform her procedures.
Lin Wei gave a word of caution, "Be careful, the patient's blood test results aren't back yet." If we need to be careful during regular surgeries, we need to be even more careful this one.
If you encounter someone with an infectious disease and there is a contact infection, then you are extremely unlucky.
Rotating resident: "I know, don't worry, Dr. Lin." Everyone knows she's an intern, but no one dares to treat her like one.
If Lin Wei hadn't refused, the head of the operating room would have wanted her to mentor two more students.
But she's too busy with her own schedule, so where would she find the time to teach others?
The operating room lights came on quickly.
This was her first finger replantation surgery after she had mastered nerve suturing to S-level. Her only feeling was that she felt a little bit at ease.
It's an indescribable feeling, but you can definitely feel it when you do it yourself. However, no matter how smoothly you perform, it's not easy. An hour later, the scrub nurse wiped away her sweat.
It is not an easy task to anastomose blood vessels, nerves, and subcutaneous tissue to keep blood flowing smoothly. Even though her skills have improved, she cannot be said to be very fast. She can only be said to be faster and more skilled than other doctors.
Lin Wei: "Many surgeries are based on vascular suturing and tissue suturing. If you can master these two techniques, many surgeries will be nothing to fear." She would stop and say to the people watching after suturing a blood vessel.
"So don't underestimate the seemingly simple task of suturing blood vessels and closing wounds; there's a lot to learn about it."
The rotating and resident physicians took notes of these points, as they were all important.
Twenty minutes later, the hematology department reported that the patient's blood test was fine, and Lin Wei relaxed more during the procedure. Because there was plenty of time, she explained why she sutured the patient in that way and what the purpose of this suture was after they had reviewed the blood sample once.
Resident physician: "How do we ensure that blood flow to the blood vessels is restored?"
Lin Wei: "We can't guarantee success during surgery, so finger replantation surgery has a failure rate and is not 100% successful. All we can do is try our best to reduce bleeding from the wound and prevent the blood from clotting and forming a scab, which could block blood vessels."
"This is a surgery that requires a lot of skill and patience. If you encounter it in the future, please be careful."
This made the two of them chuckle wryly. When would they be able to perform operations at this level? Would it be twenty or thirty years from now?
I heard that Dr. Lin is only 18 years old. At her age, she has already achieved what many people strive for their whole lives. I wonder what her status will be when she is in her forties or fifties.
Anyway, it's no lower than those senior directors.
After the surgery, they left the remaining trivial matters to be handled here, and Lin Wei went to take on another gastrointestinal surgery. Sometimes there were no surgeries in the operating room, and she would sleep through the night. Other times there were two or three surgeries a day, and in those cases, it was best to have the second-line doctors come to help.
In the gastrointestinal surgery department, Wu Sitong had just undergone an appendectomy yesterday, but was being discharged today. She was completely bewildered. "Doctor, are you sure you're not mistaken? I had surgery late last night, how can I be discharged today?"
Although she was a little anxious about things at school, her supervisor was very reluctant to let her take leave for even a graduate student's surgery. She had originally thought she would have to ask for at least three days, but to her surprise, she didn't even need three days.
The attending physician said, "That's right. Normally, you should be discharged at least 3 to 5 days after an appendectomy. But you were lucky. You had a great surgeon perform the operation yesterday, so you can be discharged today."
"Don't worry, we won't let you leave the hospital until you've recovered."
He would explain this almost every time it was Lin Wei's surgery. In the end, Wu Sitong left the hospital with a blank expression, but no matter what, it was good news for her.
So, you can run into big shots when you have surgery at night?
Because of this, she later advised students who needed appendicitis surgery to go to the emergency room late at night, and if they were lucky, they might be able to run into an operating room doctor to perform the procedure.
There are many patients like her, so much so that the operating room becomes busy at night.
Faced with these surgeries, Lin Wei could perform the surgeries she was capable of, but there was nothing she could do about the ones she couldn't, since she was alone. However, sometimes she would have the assistant surgeon perform the procedures. You can't learn just by watching; you have to practice.
So, during the robotic minimally invasive surgery, the assistant surgeon operated while Lin Wei provided guidance. When they encountered critical points, fearing that he might not be able to handle them, she personally took over the procedures.
When the head of the operating room had a spare moment, he came in for a quick look and realized that she was only one title away from being promoted. Which of the doctors was dissatisfied? They were all like mice in front of a cat in her presence. Although they addressed her as "Dr. Lin," they genuinely treated her with the respect due to a teacher. Her treatment was no worse than that of the department heads.
Lin Wei also delegated the simpler procedures to her assistant surgeon, which significantly reduced the number of patients in the operating room. She rarely performs those simple surgeries now; most of her surgeries are major procedures like craniotomies, thoracotomies, and abdominal surgeries.
Even so, the news of a skilled doctor at the Second Hospital of Hanshao City still spread.
At the First Hospital of Hanshao City, Director Zheng also heard about this matter. Knowing that Lin Wei was rotating in the operating room, he knew that the person was talking about her.
I never expected she could cause trouble anywhere.
Just a couple of days ago, the head of pediatrics said that one of her nurses had a newborn baby with severe hydronephrosis in the right kidney and needed surgery. However, the head of urology wasn't confident he could perform the surgery, and Director Zheng didn't know if she could.
Because newborns are too small, conventional open surgery is obviously not advisable. If possible, minimally invasive surgery would be the best option. However, the incision size must be very small, only about 5mm, which means that the operator must be very skilled in operating the robot.
He wasn't sure how far Lin Wei's skills had progressed, but he still called the head of pediatrics to ask if she would be willing to give it a try. If she was, he could have someone take a look.
The head of pediatrics said, "Okay, thank you anyway, Director Zheng." As for the issue of whether or not to perform surgery, we'll see after we've examined the patient. Her opinion doesn't matter; it mainly depends on whether the nurse dares to let her do it.
Therefore, the Second Hospital of Hanshao City received a call from the First Hospital, inviting Lin Wei to a consultation. The head of the operating room naturally agreed.
"Take the other two with you, let them see the world."
It was a small matter, and Lin Wei had no reason to disagree, so she took people to the First Hospital of Hanshao City the next day.
To be honest, this was the first time the Second Hospital had received a call from the First Hospital inviting them for a consultation. It was impossible for them not to be unhappy. They never expected that the First Hospital would ask the Second Hospital for help.
Normally, we only borrow patients from them for surgery. This is the first time we've had a problem that we've come to them for. Although we said we were looking for Lin Wei, isn't she now working at the Second Hospital? So it's like we're also looking for their hospital.
At the First Hospital of Hanshao City, Zheng Heng was summoned by his father to pick her up. He hadn't expected her to be so capable; or perhaps his father's expectations for her were simply too high?
On the way, he told me some of what he knew: "That child is only half a month old, the child of one of the nurses in our hospital. He has severe hydronephrosis and needs kidney reconstruction. Can you perform this surgery using a minimally invasive method?"
As the two were talking, a commotion arose not far away.
