The child's blood pressure is very low and is now being maintained with blood transfusions and medication.
Dr. Zhou is a licensed doctor, so he will be an assistant until the other doctors in the department come back. When he came in and saw the patient in front of him, he was suddenly confused. He had never performed surgery on such a young child before.
Nie Jiamin, who was about to wash his hands, noticed that he was not moving, so he quickly turned to Xie Wanying and called out, "Yingying."
I don’t know when it started, but Teacher Nie got used to calling her by her nickname.
"Yes, Teacher Nie, I'll do it." Xie Wanying understood the teacher's instructions immediately and stepped forward to replace Dr. Zhou to disinfect the surgical area for the child. She had performed surgery on Xiao Yazhi before and remembered similar procedures, so she was not unfamiliar with it at all.
Doctor Zhou finally came to his senses and went over to help her spread the surgical sheet.
After putting on his surgical gown, Nie Jiamin entered the operating room and took the lead position. Time was tight and his Chinese was not good enough, so he reached out to the nurse and casually said, "Scalple."
My goodness, what did this new doctor say? The nurse's body went numb and she stood there in a daze.
Doctor Zhou shrank his shoulders in fear: If the big boss suddenly asked him to do something in English during the operation, would he be able to react? He was a young doctor in the county hospital and had never had the opportunity to communicate with foreigners in English. Maybe reading English papers would be fine, but asking him to speak English? Forget it.
...
...
"Teacher Nie wants a scalpel." Seeing that the nurse and Dr. Zhou did not move, Xie Wanying hurriedly took her place and said to the nurse. She was a little slow because she thought that Teacher Nie's gesture of extending his hand was obvious and she could guess something. She did not expect that the teacher was the first to be shocked by the English.
The nurse was nervous when she handed the scalpel to the surgeon. She had no confidence. She only graduated from a technical secondary school and her English was not good.
Dr. Zhou secretly turned his gaze to Xie Wanying and signaled: Let’s change seats.
Xie Wanying asked:?
Doctor Zhou: I’m afraid he and I are talking at cross purposes. If I don’t switch with you, I’m afraid I won’t be able to communicate with him.
I'm afraid it's the same as the other doctors in his department who came back. No one in the county hospital can speak English fluently with foreigners.
The question is whether to change the position is not her decision, it needs to be decided by the surgeon. Xie Wanying said to Dr. Zhou with her eyes.
"You two, change positions." Nie Jiamin spoke from behind the surgical mask.
The others heard the dull tone in his voice, obviously disappointment.
Doctor Zhou regretted it. He should have known better. To put it bluntly, what was he afraid of before the boss started to scold him? If he was afraid first, could he learn anything from the boss? Well, now this precious learning opportunity was going to be given to others in vain. Who made him back down at the last minute?
"Change." Nie Jiamin gave the order and urged him regardless of whether he regretted it or not.
Forget about the other times. It’s good enough that you retreated on the operating table and I didn’t kick you off.
All big guys have tempers. Teacher Nie is angry right now.
Dr. Zhou had no choice but to exchange positions with Xie Wanying and stand in the position of second assistant.
She was appointed as the assistant once again. It was her first time to perform this kind of surgery on infants and young children, and Xie Wanying was nervous. She remembered what was written in the textbooks, that surgery on infants and young children was similar to surgery on adults.
There was only one thing she had to do, be careful and listen to the teacher's instructions.
"Gauze." He ordered the nurse, who reached out and took the gauze and stood by.
Looking up, Nie Jia glanced at her hand posture sharply. It seemed to be accurate and promising, so he held the scalpel like a pen and cut the child's skin.
