There are fewer nurses on the night shift. One is busy arranging beds in the treatment room according to the doctor's instructions, while the other is making preoperative preparations for the child.
In neurosurgery, it is common to shave the patient's head before skin preparation for surgery.
Fortunately, the child is a boy, and boys are more psychologically accepting of shaving their heads.
In fact, shaving the head is not the first choice of neurosurgeons. If possible, surgeons do not want to shave the patient's head for surgery. The main reason is that no matter how careful you are, shaving the hair will inevitably cause minor damage to the scalp, which will increase the risk of infection before, during and after the operation. Therefore, shaving the head to prepare the skin will only appear in surgeries where it is necessary.
Does it require shaving one's head for skin preparation for minimally invasive neurosurgery? It's not because minimally invasive procedures definitely don't require it. On the contrary, as mentioned earlier, the three-dimensional navigation and positioning system requires the affixing of positioning markers, which requires shaving one's head.
The nurse thought so, and just took a razor and waited for the doctor's order to shave.
After Xie Wanying entered the ward, she saw the razor and said, "If we want to shave our hair, we can do it ourselves. He doesn't need to shave his head."
"No need?" the nurse asked, "Shouldn't he be sent for another CT scan?"
“No.”
...
...
If I were to do what I did just now, I would have spent a lot of time explaining it to the family members. It is not easy for the family members to understand this, after all, it is only two CT scans in a short period of time.
If I don’t do CT again, does that mean I will no longer do neural three-dimensional navigation?
This will be decided after the patient is pushed into the operating room. Xie Wanying would not say anything final. She wanted to use the neuronavigation system. How to use it would be discussed with Senior Brother Cao.
If the head is not shaved, the nurse will not have to worry about it, the patient will not have to suffer, the family will be happy, and everyone will be happy. This once again shows that the doctor's skills are the most important.
Walking to the bedside, Xie Wanying used a flashlight to check the boy's mental state. Two junior sisters and one junior brother followed her like little puppies, surrounding her and watching her operate.
Fan Yunyun glanced at the nurse's treatment cart from time to time, showing a skilled attitude as if she was ready to help Senior Sister Xie at any time.
Mi Wenlin and Mi Siran, who were standing near her, actually had the same arrogant look and attitude. What changed was their attitude towards Senior Sister Xie.
The characteristic of the aloof academic master is that he will only submit to people who are stronger than himself, and don't expect him to be subservient to others.
There were tapping sounds of footsteps in the corridor outside the ward, meaning someone else was coming.
Two men turned around and came in from the door. They were wearing white coats on the outside and dark green scrubs on the inside. They looked like medical staff in the operating room.
One is older and the other is younger. This age difference combination is the most common master and apprentice combination in Lin**.
Older men have gentle, elegant faces and a mature and steady aura.
The young one is in his early twenties, a sunny boy with flying eyebrows and smiling swirls in his eyes.
"Is the anesthesiologist here?" Fan Yunyun reported after helping her senior sister look back.
Xie Wanying turned around and saw the familiar figure and shouted, "Senior Brother Lu."
"Xie Wanying, are you on duty tonight?" Lu Tianchi walked over and started chatting with her.
The anesthesiology department of the National Association is no different from that of other hospitals. It is common for the department to be short of staff. For example, senior doctors such as Dr. Zhang and Senior Brother Lu are forced to take night shifts when necessary.
Xie Wanying felt pleasantly surprised. With the presence of the anesthesiologist, the surgery tonight would be more successful.
