Chapter 663: Live Incision
As Ling Ran’s continuous application of CPR ticked to ten minutes, the atmosphere in the room beca less tense.
If the resuscitation done by the doctors in Donghuang Regional Hospital was taken into calculation, the patient’s heart would have stopped beating for more than ten minutes. If it was up to a normal doctor, they could already announce the ti of death.
Ling Ran had not stopped because he thought otherwise.
For a male patient in his pri and free of hereditary diseases, cardioplegia might be an unlucky accident. For people who had been working for many years, having the heart fail even for a brief mont after working for thirty or forty years was still understandable.
On that basis, Ling Ran judged that the patient’s condition was salvageable.
Luckily, there were no organ failures, and most importantly, the brain did not undergo hypoxia because the resuscitation was being carried out in the hospital.
Based on Ling Ran’s experience, it would not be too late to end the resuscitation after one to two hours of seemingly fruitless CPR applications. If the patient survived, dicine could be used to ease many sequelae. The prognosis might not be very good, but the patient would be in better condition than stroke survivors.
Considering that stroke patients could still have a high quality of life after recovery, the usual reason used for stopping CPR was not valid.
Of course, these were just Ling Ran’s thoughts.
He had mastered Perfect Level Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, so his judgnt and ability to take action was superior to the doctors in Donghuang Regional Hospital.
Forget everything else, doctors who had not perford any prolonged CPR, or rather, doctors who had not perford any successful prolonged CPRs would not be confident in saving the patient with CPR especially when it was over a couple of hours, and they were also not confident that they could provide adequate care even after a successful CPR.
Most of the prolonged CPR only resulted in vegetative states.
Therefore, instead of facing such a situation, the doctors from Donghuang Regional Hospital would think that stopping CPR was a more reasonable plan.
That was until they saw that the cardiac rhythm had recovered on the monitor.
*Beep, beep*
It was only then that the doctors of Donghuang Regional Hospital finally snapped out of their daze.
“Damn, the heart is beating?”
“How long has it been?”
“Twenty minutes. A bit more and it would beco a prolonged CPR.”
“Even now, it is already considered a prolonged CPR. This is my first ti seeing soone saved by prolonged CPR.”
The dical staff from Donghuang Regional Hospital could not help but start to whisper and discuss among themselves.
The doctors who ca and welcod Ling Ran and others were so shocked that their eyebrows twitched.
CPR was not just a boring task in terms of its content, but it was also a task that challenged one’s ntal strength.
If CPR were treated as purely chanized work, then it was a boring job. The physical activity involved was comparable to boxing and the level of boredom was above weightlifting.
However, if CPR were treated as a sacred task to save lives, the ntal excitent, fear, worry, and trepidation would be the core emotions occupying a person’s heart, and the one administering it would quickly cave in.
The longer the ti taken to perform CPR, the more boring it would be. The more physical activity was involved, the challenge to a person’s ntal fortitude would be greater.
The doctors in Donghuang Regional Hospital had given up.
Yet after going through the boring process and having it turning out successful, everyone would feel a huge sense of excitent.
The associate hospital director even felt distressed. If such a good opportunity was given to all of them, maybe they could get so benefits in return.
He looked at Jin Xiongteng and the others with a look that said that he was highly disappointed in them for not being able to succeed.
“Send him to the ICU. Doctor Zuo, you will follow them as well.” Ling Ran then washed his hands at the hand-washing basin and wiped his hands with his own alcohol-based hand sanitizer. He spread the sanitizer on his hands equally.
He already had his eyes on the hand-washing basin just now, and the alcohol-based hand sanitizer had the sll he liked. After tidying up a bit, Ling Ran felt that his condition had recovered.
“Yes,” Zuo Cidian replied loudly. It was obvious that he needed to support his boss on such an occasion.
At that mont, Feng Zhixiang coughed and said, “Doctor Ling’s treatnt group published many articles related to CPR. They have their own way in performing CPR, particularly prolonged CPR…”
“No worries. Let Doctor Ling’s people go and help. If you think that your skill is not up to par, then learn from the doctor with good skills. We invited you over for surgery with the aim of achieving a mutual goal through the learning process…” The associate hospital director acted wisely and looked at Ling Ran carefully.
Those who t Ling Ran for the first ti always got attracted by his outer appearance. If they had further contact with him, they would be amazed by the way Ling Ran handled things.
The associate hospital director looked at Ling Ran who did things his own way, and he could not help but shook his head and smiled at Feng Zhixiang. He said, “Doctor Ling seems to have adopted the style of working however he wants.”
When such a statent cos from an official, it was no longer re praise.
Feng Zhixiang smiled faintly and said, “Doctor Ling’s brain is filled only with saving lives and treating diseases. He thinks in a simple way. However, his outstanding dical skills are a good thing for the patient.”
He did not explain too many things to them either. They were only here for a freelance hepatectomy at Donghuang Regional Hospital, and they were not helping their leader perform a head transplant.
The associate hospital director laughed and said, “That’s true, that’s true…”
Those who could beco associate hospital directors in tertiary Grade A hospitals usually had smart minds and were very experienced. Yet without a strong background and reputation, it would be hard for them to beco the official hospital director. Therefore, the position of an associate hospital director was usually a position that had higher influence in the hospital.
In comparison, the hospital director of the hospital would usually not be so deeply rooted in the hospital. Their mindset and goals might not even be focused on the hospital.
For example, the expansion of the Pathology Departnt and the developnt of new skills were sothing the associate hospital director and the departnt director of the General Surgery Departnt cared about more. When he thought about this, the associate hospital director was able to zone in on the objectives. He looked at his watch, smiled, and said, “Shall we go to the operating theater now? The patient should be ready now.”
“Let’s go.” Zhu Tongyi patted Ling Ran’s shoulder and brought him toward the elevator. At the sa ti, he whispered into Ling Ran’s ear, “Why did you do CPR for them?”
“Their ergency skills are lousy,” Ling Ran said tactlessly.
According to the standard of Yun Hua Hospital, when the reception nurse of the Ergency Departnt saw the patient, they should have observed the sweat and pain of the patient and considered the possibility of chest pain. For those weak nurses who could not link it to chest pain or observe, they should open their mouths and ask the patient.
For the doctors, setting aside treatnt experience, they should still know about the level of the reception nurse first. They could be rest assured with experienced nurses or responsible resident doctors. However, if they t any weak nurses or interns, they needed to be alert. In the end, Jin Xiongteng was only busy handling the patient in front of him without caring about other people in the Ergency Departnt. He might look very serious, but in fact, he was just asking about another patient suffering from abdominal pain.
For Ling Ran, such an attending physician was a troll in Kings of Glory who were obsessed with ganking to absorb EXP. They seed serious, but they did not even look at the mini map… Such a troll made Ling Ran feel uncomfortable.
When the departnt director from the General Surgery Departnt who had the sa expertise as Ling Ran heard this comnt, he could not help but lower his head and smiled. Everyone knew that the Ergency Departnt in this hospital was lousy. And as a departnt director from the General Surgery Departnt, it should be his duty to scold the Ergency Departnt too.
The associate hospital director was stunned, and he feigned ignorance. He just looked around as if he had nothing to do. But he already rembered the performance of the Ergency Departnt today.
Zhu Tongyi coughed. He felt amused, but he felt that it would be embarrassing to laugh. He pulled Ling Ran and said, “Luckily, the patient was saved. This hospital has a smaller sphere of influence, so they do not need a huge Ergency Departnt.”
“Since they have an Ergency Departnt set up, the staff should be well trained as well.” Ling Ran gently shook his head. If he were allowed to be in charge, the few doctors in the Ergency Departnt needed to learn the basics from scratch altogether.
Zhu Tongyi already knew Ling Ran well enough, so he did not argue. He changed the topic and said, “The patient scheduled for hepatectomy was pushed in just now. If you still have any requests, please, now is the ti.”
“I need half an hour for preparation in the operating theater.” Ling Ran’s plan at the start was to co earlier, but the CPR had taken up his ti.
The departnt director from the General Surgery Departnt frowned and said, “The operating theater is now ready.”
“I need to revise the surgery procedure before the surgery,” Ling Ran replied frankly.
Once the eccentric habits of the surgeon ca into display, even the hospital leaders could not force him to perform surgery.
The departnt director of the General Surgery Departnt from Donghuang Regional Hospital could only lower his head and agree with him.
Ling Ran did not make further explanations. When he reached the surgical floor, he changed his attire and washed his hands before entering.
When he ca into contact with the patient and used the Virtual Human, he did not choose the crudest surgery plan.
Although he could save a lot of ti and rely on the crudest thod of cutting open the Virtual abdon, Ling Ran wanted to try using his own judgnt to perform a hepatectomy.
Unlike practicing on a real patient, before hepatectomy, he needed one hour for blood flow interruption, separating the hepatic ligant, predicting the line for incision, and such.
Ling Ran could perform live incision on the Virtual Human during hepatectomy.
He used his hands to touch the exposed liver and thought about the patient’s imaging information like his MRI scans. He estimated the distance and cut into the Virtual Human’s liver.
Blood flowed out in rivers. That was not Ling Ran’s concern. The main concern was the area of infiltrated tissues and whether his guess was correct.
If no unforeseen circumstance happened in his judgnt, it would completely change Ling Ran’s surgery thod and allow there to be a possibility for the hepatectomy for elderly patients to be circled around in the dical world. It would also lower the possibility of it being promoted.
