Xie Wanying held the child in her arms and hugged him tightly.
The pain of losing a loved one actually does not differentiate between adults and children.
The family members waiting outside wiped their tears when they saw this scene. Shanshan's parents ran into the ward and hugged their eldest daughter.
Just as what Xie said, family members are also one of the vulnerable groups.
Fearing that the night would be too long and dreams would arise, the doctor immediately contacted the operating room. At 5 pm, when an operating room was vacant, Xie Wanying and Wei Shangquan took the child to the operating room.
The mainstream of surgery now is all minimally invasive surgery. In general surgery, minimally invasive means drilling a hole to place instruments such as a laparoscope into the patient's body for operation. In orthopedics, minimally invasive surgery can be even more advanced, without drilling a hole. Yes, even a scalpel is not needed.
What is this minimally invasive orthopedic surgery? Why don't they even use a scalpel? In fact, as mentioned before, some fractures need internal fixation because they are not firm after manual reduction. This internal fixation part does not require drastic measures such as cutting the skin and inserting steel plates and steel nails on the bones. It only requires a few needles to be inserted through the skin to fix it. In this minor surgery, the commonly used internal fixation needle is called a Kirschner wire.
Kirschner wires can be made of stainless steel or titanium alloy, and have a very small diameter, with the largest not exceeding 4 mm. Today's surgery only requires a 1.5 mm diameter needle. 1.5 mm, but it is about the same as a thicker embroidery needle. The doctor can insert it into the patient's skin and bones with his hands.
Getting an injection hurts, and inserting a needle into the skin and bones is definitely more painful. Anesthesia is needed. Usually, local anesthesia is enough. This local anesthesia does not require an anesthesiologist to perform it, and the orthopedic surgeon can do it himself.

In fact, if it were not for the need for machine assistance and the fear that the fixation process might not be in place and that a temporary surgery might be needed, such an operation could be performed in the ward treatment room.
As mentioned above, without surgery, how can the doctor see the broken bones inside to fix the pins? Just like interventional surgery, the doctor can be directed to position the bone conveniently and timely using an X-ray machine. In orthopedics, C-arm X-ray machines are commonly used. Similarly, medical staff need to wear lead clothing to protect against radiation.
Place the child in the operating room and place the C-arm X-ray machine parallel to the operating table.
At the scene of the car accident, everyone could see that Shanshan was a very strong child. As expected, now lying on the operating table, Shanshan showed no fear at all, and her eyes were fixed on the doctors' actions.
The nurse saw him and said, "Oh, does this child want to be a doctor in the future?"
Most children are extremely scared when they enter the operating room, but children who have the dream of wearing a white coat will not be afraid.
Shanshan's little face turned red. After seeing the heroic doctor sister in a white coat today, she had this idea in her mind: I wonder if I can be as handsome as the doctor sister one day, and whether I can cure my sister Xiaoyu.
"Doctor Liu, are you alone?" the nurse asked when she saw Liu Huaiyu coming in after washing his hands.
"Aren't they two human beings?" Liu Huaiyu pointed at the students.
"I haven't seen either of them before."
It is normal for the two new students to be doubted by their seniors about their technical ability.
An anesthesiologist passed by the operating room door and saw Xie Wanying and said, "I recognize her. With her here, the operation will be fine."
The senior's insistence that she was very capable sparked the curiosity of a large group of people.
Pediatricians who were about to get off work came to watch the fun.
