I once stood at the top of the world's surgical field. In the field where Westerners excel, I raised the medical level of Longguo to the same level as theirs.
In this era, the gap between our country's medical level and that of the West is far greater than that of later generations.
However, the current level of medical care in the West cannot be compared with that of later generations.
It is difficult to catch up in internal medicine because it involves a lot of basic research, such as pharmacy, molecular biology, pathology, etc. However, surgery can catch up and even surpass it.
Because surgery is more based on anatomy, the improvement and innovation of surgical methods are very intuitive. Surgeons grow faster than internists for this reason, and their operational capabilities are tested.
As long as there is a ready-made surgical method, just follow it.
And in his head, he already had the most advanced surgical concepts and techniques of later generations. In this era, it was definitely a miracle in the medical field.
Now that I have returned to this era, I cannot come here in vain. I must make the most of the knowledge in my head and make Longguo's surgical level catch up with the West.
Li Zheng nodded and said solemnly, "I've thought about it. We'll first establish a national general surgery training center, followed by a limb trauma training center. This is the area with the most patients in primary hospitals and is also the easiest to develop. Once these are established, we'll gradually build other treatment centers."
Li Zheng’s words shocked everyone.
Are you... just daydreaming?
It is great for a county hospital to be able to establish a center. You also want to hang several signs at the door with various treatment centers like the big hospitals in the province. That is because they are large in size, and the county hospital does not have such conditions. What's more, you want to be registered nationwide. Isn't that even more ridiculous?
"There is no hospital in the entire province that dares to set up a national-level rescue and training center! Moreover, it must go through administrative approval. You can't just hang up that kind of sign whenever you want!" Duan Jianhui was angered by Li Zheng's words. The municipal hospital did not have this ability. Although you have high surgical skills, you can't reach the top overnight.
Even Xiang Yuanzhong and Bao Youshan found it unbelievable.
Chen Dayong sneered and said, "Why shouldn't we be afraid? Other hospitals don't dare because they don't have the ability. As long as we build our reputation and establish a central base, it will be a natural thing to do!"
"I agree!" Zhu Qidong echoed, "You older people are too conservative. The development of our country's medical technology cannot rely on you. We need young doctors like us who are bold and daring!"
"You brat!" Duan Jianhui was amused by his anger. He shook his head and laughed, "Since you all have this idea, then it depends on your ability. We, the older generation, will not hold you back and will fully support you!"
"Haha, I fully support it too!"
Everyone turned around and saw Dean Zhang appear at the door at some point, limping in with the help of a cane.
"Dean Zhang, why are you here?" Duan Jianhui asked with a smile.
Dean Zhang nodded and said, "I told you that as long as Li Zheng has a new surgery, I will come to see it, but something delayed me earlier."
"What were you talking about just now? It seems to involve us old guys!" asked Dean Zhang.
Xiang Yuanzhong told Li Zheng about his plan again.
Dean Zhang thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Li Zheng, just go for it. I fully support you. So, next time you have a difficult surgery, notify me in advance. I'll contact the county TV station to follow up and record the video. Not only will it be broadcast throughout the county, but it will also be reported to the city news. If the impact is large enough, we'll try to get it on the provincial news. Then, I'll apply for funding from the county to improve the hospital's hardware..."
Dean Zhang immediately sorted out his thoughts and made the company bigger and stronger step by step.
Everyone's confidence was ignited at once.
Except for Duan Jianhui and Zhu Qidong, other people in the county hospital are full of hope for the future of the hospital.
"Director Zhang, I envy you!" Duan Jianhui said with a smile. He knew very well that as long as Li Zheng could maintain a high standard, it would only be a matter of time before the county hospital's surgical level surpassed that of the city.
Dean Zhang chuckled and said, "Don't be envious. Li Zheng's establishment of the center will be very helpful in improving the medical level of the entire city and even the entire province. Since your city is close, you will definitely be the first to benefit!"
Duan Jianhui wanted to curse after hearing this. Every one of them was saying things that hurt him so much!
"Director Zhang, please purchase a set of microsurgical instruments for Dr. Li first. Microsurgery is important for the establishment of the trauma center. His technology has reached the national level. I think it can be given priority in development!" Zhu Qidong suggested.
Everyone shook their heads after hearing this. This kid is really persistent!
"Oh? Really?" Dean Zhang's eyes lit up.
National level, that's a very distant word! County hospital, I dare not even think about it.
Zhu Qidong attentively described Li Zheng's surgery in detail, and Dean Zhang nodded repeatedly.
"Dean Zhang, you can see the results yourself," said Zhu Qidong.
It took about 15 minutes to loosen the tourniquet and the operation continued.
Chen Dayong removed the gauze from the wound.
Director Zhang was amazed at the effect of arterial anastomosis.
"This was sewn without a microscope. As long as there is a microscope, there is no microsurgery he can't perform!" Zhu Qidong praised Li Zheng to the sky.
Dean Zhang nodded repeatedly, a little excited.
"We must get the microscope no matter what!" Dean Zhang said in a deep voice.
"Haha, the development of the hospital requires a visionary and courageous leader like you, President Zhang!" Zhu Qidong laughed and began to flatter President Zhang.
Everyone knew what he was thinking, but no one pointed it out. After all, Li Zheng and Dean Zhang had their own ideas.
The tourniquet was reinflated.
Next up is the vein graft.
Compared with arteries, veins have larger lumens, thinner walls, and are easier to puncture, so suturing is faster.
In less than 5 minutes, both ports were anastomosed.
"Do you want to loosen the tourniquet again and test it?" Bao Youshan asked.
The others also looked at Li Zheng.
Zhu Qidong was the first to answer: "That's unnecessary. Arterial sutures are so easy, so veins are even easier to suture. If the tourniquet is loosened too often, it will easily cause ischemia-reperfusion injury!"
"You just like to show off!" Chen Dayong glanced at Zhu Qidong.
Everyone looked at Li Zheng, waiting for his decision.
Li Zheng nodded and said, "No need to look at it, continue the operation!"
Looking at the wound, Chen Dayong and Bao Youshan were dumbfounded. The skin defect was so large that direct suturing was impossible. Forcing it would also cause blood vessel compression, blocking blood flow and causing an arterial crisis.
"Are you planning on taking skin for a skin graft?" Bao Youshan asked. He visually estimated the skin defect to be 1.3 by 1.5 centimeters.
