Ring, ring, the cell phone rings, Shi Xu helps Tan Kelin check the caller ID: Um, the hospital leader is calling to say hello.
The new arrivals also surrounded Tan Kelin's right hand.
Yu Xuexian was so anxious that he kept adjusting his glasses, frowning and nagging: "How could this happen? Didn't you see the car? Who was driving it?"
"Teacher Tan had just gotten off the car. The car suddenly turned and drove over. No one could have predicted it." Shi Xu explained, "The man later apologized and said that the brake pads seemed to be broken."
"Who's driving?"
There is an employee area in the parking lot of the hospital. Tan Kelin's car must have been parked in the employee area. It was probably a car driven by a colleague in the hospital that caused the accident. It was a colleague, and the matter was a bit serious. Tan Kelin didn't want to say the other party's name. Shi Xu knew that he didn't want to be a bad guy, so he didn't say it.
"Don't ask anymore." Cao Yong said to the others. In this case, the wishes of the parties involved must be respected first. Besides, it is useless to pursue responsibility now. The most important thing is to determine the surgeon's injury and whether it will affect the operation.
So Cao Yong asked Tan Kelin to move his fingers, wrists and arms to check the movement of his hands.
"Why don't you let me, an orthopedic surgeon, take a look?" Chang Jiawei came up again. "What's a neurosurgeon to look at?"
...
...
"Why can't I see the neurosurgeon?" Shi Xu repeatedly stopped Chang Jiawei at the periphery, knowing that this man definitely had no good intentions. How could you see a doctor with an ulterior motive?
"I specialize in orthopedics, and he is not specialized in neurology." Chang Jiawei argued with him.
While the two were arguing, Cao Yong observed the movements of the injured man's hand and said, "The peripheral nerves are fine."
Peripheral nerves refer to all nerves outside the central nervous system of the brain and spinal cord. In the hand, there are three major nerves, the radial nerve, the ulnar nerve and the median nerve, which control the sensation and movement of the hand. In the common people's cognition, neurosurgery only treats the human brain, and everything outside the nerves is called outside the brain. However, in the definition of neurosurgery by the Medical Association, neurosurgery definitely covers the treatment of peripheral nerves.
This is the situation in China. When the limbs are injured, the most feared thing is fracture, so people go to see orthopedics. What Chang Jiawei said is also correct. If there is a problem with the hand alone, orthopedics can also see it. For example, carpal tunnel syndrome, commonly known as mouse hand, usually patients come to orthopedics for consultation. If it is placed in neurosurgery, people may think that this disease is not worthy of the prestigious neurosurgery department.
"There is no difficulty in movement. The bones should be fine too. We can help Teacher Lu with the surgery." Zhu Huicang added the diagnosis.
These obvious disease diagnosis do not require orthopedic surgery, and any doctor can tell the difference. Doctors learn all kinds of subjects when they are medical students.
"It's just a superficial wound." Yu Xuexian followed up, saying this to comfort himself.
After all, for an operation like that performed by Mr. Lu, it might be difficult to find someone to replace Tan Kelin on the operating table.
Cao Yong had a solemn expression and was not so quick to let down his guard. He asked the person involved, "Does it hurt?"
It would be strange if a wound with stitches didn't hurt. Pain can reduce the degree of activity, and sometimes even sudden severe pain can make people completely stop that part of the activity. This is the human body's neural reflex mechanism. As a neurosurgeon, Cao Yong is very clear about this.
Will a doctor's hand injury affect his ability to perform surgery with that hand? Yes, it will, especially for very delicate surgical operations, unless the wound is healed and the pain is gone.
