Chapter 125 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 125 ...
In the operating room, the scrub nurse was on her phone, speaking through speakerphone, waiting for a reply.
It was only after he was on the operating table that the surgeon realized he didn't know where to begin. These organs and tissues were currently in a state of equilibrium, and any movement of one could affect the whole body. He couldn't guarantee that he could save the patient if problems arose after he started the surgery.
All I can say is that the person who handled it was incredibly skillful. I've never heard of a doctor like that at their hospital; if they did, they would have been famous by now.
The head of the emergency department rushed out. He didn't know who the person was, but Zheng Heng did. He had heard that the person had been fighting the assailant.
Upon seeing Zheng Heng, he quickly asked, "Who was treating the patient's wound just now? Where is she now?"
Zheng Heng silently turned his gaze to Lin Wei.
The head of the emergency department looked at her, disbelief flashing in his eyes. It was such a young girl who was helping to stop the bleeding.
Too much time had passed, and Lin Wei had only met him once, so the head of the emergency department didn't remember her. After confirming that she was the one who applied pressure to stop the bleeding, he had Zheng Heng take her to the operating room.
Lin Wei glanced at his hand. "No need. His hand needs to be treated. I know where the operating room is. Just tell me which operating room they're having surgery in." Of course, there's access control there, so someone still needs to come out to meet them, since she doesn't have an access card to use.
However, despite the agreement, Zheng Heng stayed behind to treat the wound, while Director Zheng took her to the operating room. He was worried that something might go wrong and delay the patient's treatment, and besides, there were other things to do in the pediatric surgery department, so it would be a good opportunity to go there after the operating room.
A few minutes later, the two arrived at operating room number 7. Before they could even rest, the chief surgeon looked at Director Zheng and asked, "When did your hemostasis and compression techniques become so refined? Your handling skills are superb." Director Zheng couldn't help but sigh and say, "You've been keeping a low profile."
Director Zheng quickly waved his hand and said, "This has nothing to do with me. I don't have that ability. The person who was really involved in the rescue was someone else." And there was only one person beside him—none other than Lin Wei.
The surgeon looked at her with astonishment. How could she be so young? But when the nurse said that the patient's blood pressure had dropped below the safe level, he didn't have time to think too much. He asked where to start and began the surgery immediately.
Lin Wei put on her surgical gown and pointed out, "Make the cut from this spot."
No one understands this patient's condition better than Lin Wei. Since she can skillfully balance the condition of his wounds, she must also know how to handle it without disrupting that balance.
So, under her instructions, the scene the surgeon had feared never happened, and the surgery proceeded smoothly.
The surgeon was quite surprised that no crisis occurred during the operation. It was the first time he had ever performed such a smooth surgery.
After the surgery, she asked curiously, "Which hospital are you from? I've never seen you before."
Lin Wei: "I'm from the Second Hospital."
Director Zheng then added, "She was just rotating through the Second Hospital, so she doesn't really count as a member of the Second Hospital." According to that logic, she had previously interned with him and was also part of his cardiac surgery department.
Lin Wei remained silent. Fine, whatever he said goes.
Soon, the group began discussing the issue of applying pressure to stop the bleeding. Lin Wei answered every question asked by the surgeon, and her answers were from angles that most people wouldn't think of. While most people would press on the bleeding spot, she actually utilized blood pressure and flow rate.
Director Zheng originally wanted to learn some of it too, but like the surgeon, she found she couldn't understand it. If they didn't know she wouldn't keep anything to herself, they would have suspected she was deliberately trying to fool them.
Why do we need to use math to press a blood sample?
The truth is, when you think it's time to apply pressure to stop the bleeding, time is definitely of the essence. Do you have time to calculate for them at that point? Definitely not. So while this method is good, it's not suitable for everyone. It's only suitable for people who are exceptionally good at math, have strong mental arithmetic skills, and most importantly, have a very good understanding of organizational structures.
The assistant surgeon and scrub nurse next to her were completely bewildered, but they were quite envious that she could speak to the chief surgeon in the same tone.
They all treated each other with respect and reverence.
Ultimately, hospitals are also places where seniority matters.
After dealing with this matter, Lin Wei and Director Zheng went to the pediatric surgery department, took a look at the child and his medical records. To be honest, she had never done a 5mm incision surgery before, but she could give it a try.
Director Zheng: "How confident are you of success?"
Lin Wei: "To be on the safe side, let's say 80." This was already a very low probability for her. However, for others, it was already very high; the highest probability they had was around 65. They were all from the same hospital, and no one dared to do it without absolute certainty. Even though the nurse wouldn't say anything if something went wrong, the doctor would still feel guilty.
So if she really has an 80% success rate, she would be the best choice as the surgeon.
Lin Wei didn't insist on surgery. After reviewing the medical records, she said to the head of pediatrics and the nurse, "If you're really determined to have me have surgery, then have Director Zheng contact me." Although she felt sorry for the child, she wouldn't rush to perform the surgery, especially when they didn't trust her.
The surgery isn't particularly difficult; it mainly involves renal pelvis reconstruction. If you had to say it's difficult, it's because the child is so young, and the organs are so small, requiring a high level of precision.
But when it comes to meticulousness, who can compare to her?
Although Director Zheng felt the same way, both the head of pediatric surgery and the nurse hesitated when faced with a relatively unknown doctor, especially one so young.
Can such a young doctor handle this?
People with stereotypes believe that older doctors are the best. In fact, this is true for most of them, and Lin Wei understands their choice, but it just means they weren't meant to be.
After returning home and receiving no news for three days, she put the matter aside. Later, she learned from Director Zheng that the nurse eventually found another doctor to perform the surgery on her son. It wasn't anything unexpected; she just hoped the surgery would be successful.
Regardless of whether it's her surgery or not, as long as the patient can be cured, that's all that matters.
In the operating room, she is currently performing surgery on Zheng Heng. Although she can perform the surgery, she still needs to follow the hospital's procedures, including registration, examination, and surgery.
Because it was only a hand surgery, and he insisted on it, they ultimately gave him local anesthesia. Actually, she preferred general anesthesia, since even the slightest movement by the patient could be fatal.
If he doesn't want his hand to get better, then he should move it.
Clearly, Zheng Heng knew in his heart that the surgery, which lasted for twenty minutes, was changed to general anesthesia, not for any other reason, but because the surgery looked too terrifying. The stitching was fast enough, but sometimes she would turn around and talk to you; his heart couldn't take it. He decided to wait until he woke up to deal with it.
Lin Wei: "..."
Director Zheng only found out about this after their surgery was over. Zheng Heng originally thought he would be angry, but to his surprise, he didn't say anything.
"You think I'd yell at you?" Director Zheng said irritably. "He fought the thugs to the death and didn't even yell at him much. Why would I yell at him over a surgery? Besides, he'd already been thinking about having Lin Wei help with the surgery. She was already in her eighties back then, she should be in her nineties now, right?"
However, when they heard her estimate of recovery rate as 100%, Director Zheng and Zheng Heng were both incredulous. "Are you serious?" A recovery rate of 100% means the same as before the injury. How is that possible?
Lin Wei: "Why is it impossible? Since there is an injury, it can be treated. It's just a matter of whether we can find a method. The recovery rate that my surgery can achieve now is 95%. With the addition of new drugs from abroad, 100% recovery is not impossible. Even if it's not perfect, it's still 98% or 99%. That's not much different from a full recovery."
She said to Zheng Heng, "Given your current condition, it's not suitable for you to go back to work at the hospital immediately. You should stay at the Second Hospital. I also need to monitor your recovery progress and publish a paper." She also wanted to help promote the CL drug.
Director Zheng slammed his hand on the table and made the decision for him, "Okay." The temptation of a complete recovery of his hand was too great. What did it matter if he had to suspend his job at the hospital? If his hand could be operated on, with his father, the director, backing him up, why would he have to worry about not being able to return to the hospital?
Therefore, Zheng Heng had no right to refuse, although he certainly didn't want to refuse either.
At that moment, he was even more relieved that her hand wasn't injured. If something had gone wrong, even if her hand wasn't injured, she wouldn't have been able to operate on him so quickly, and she wouldn't be in such good condition. Thinking about this, Zheng Heng felt a lingering fear; he had almost missed out on a successful surgery.
Perhaps next time he encounters a similar situation, he can think about it more?
Looking at his white-haired father, and seeing the emotion in his expression despite his efforts to remain calm, he felt a pang of sadness, as if he had indeed been too willful over the years.
However, Director Zheng quickly calmed down and talked to Lin Wei about the previous newborn incident. "Although the surgery was successful, the postoperative reaction was not good, and a second surgery may be needed. The head of pediatric surgery contacted me and said he wanted you to perform the surgery. What do you think? If you don't want to agree, I will refuse on your behalf."
Lin Wei thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to refuse. If they want to have the surgery, let them come to the Second Hospital." She didn't want to make a wasted trip if they didn't end up having the surgery with her.
After all, she's quite busy.
