top student at medical school

Chapter 6 Opportunity (Please bookmark and read on)

“Yes, Brother Zhou.” Fang Ziye nodded quickly.

There are three professors leading groups in the department: Professor Deng Yong, Professor Han Yuanxiao, and Professor Dong Yaohui. Professor Dong Yaohui's group doesn't have that many attending physicians, and Jin Hongzhou is Professor Dong Yaohui's own student.

Although Jin Hongzhou is the chief resident in the department, he also works under Professor Dong's team.

Professional master's degree graduates, after obtaining their medical qualification certificates, are required to be on duty, including regular shifts in the wards and emergency surgery shifts.

The operating room is where you go to assist in emergency surgeries.

Seeing that Fang Ziye was stopped, Lan Tianluo quickly smiled and said, "Teacher Jin, Brother Ye, I've finished my work, I'll be going now."

Fang Ziye and Jin Hongzhou both nodded.

Jin Hongzhou is the chief resident, and he needs to handle emergency consultations every day. Occasionally, he will perform emergency surgeries in the emergency operating room.

"That's perfect, you can come with me to the emergency operating room!" Jin Hongzhou probably just came back from the emergency department, as he hadn't participated in the department's shift handover before.

Once Fang Ziye was captured, he said so.

Jin Hongzhou asked Fang Ziye to go with him to perform emergency surgery, and Fang Ziye couldn't directly refuse.

Even if something happens, you should find someone to take your place.

……

"Are you free today?" Jin Hongzhou was the same height as Fang Ziye, but his appearance was slightly less attractive. He relied purely on his strength.

He had very dark circles under his eyes, and his upper and lower eyelids were puffy, making him look like someone with late-stage nephritis.

But those in the know will understand that this is from staying up all night.

"Brother Zhou, isn't this all thanks to your kindness? You've given our group a few more people this month, which is why I had the chance to bring Lan Tianluo and my junior brother along." Fang Ziye disliked the smell of smoke, but he could understand that Jin Hongzhou needed to smoke to relieve stress.

A ticking time bomb, emergency consultations and routine consultations—it's exhausting.

Jin Hongzhou suddenly realized: "Oh, right, it's August now, and a new attending physician will be coming in August."

As he walked, he casually tossed the cigarette butt into the ashtray of the trash can.

"Come on, this surgery isn't difficult. Let's try to finish it as soon as possible."

"It's just that half a muscle was torn," Jin Hongzhou said frankly.

Fang Ziye followed closely behind.

……

For tasks like speaking and signing consent forms, Fang Ziye would take a pen to the emergency department, print out the informed consent form for the surgery, and then do it in front of the patient's family.

Jin Hongzhou, on the other hand, was chatting with the head resident of the emergency department, pleading, "Brother Shu, I'm going to perform emergency surgery. Call me if you need anything, but please don't call the department's phone."

Lai Zishu is the chief resident of the emergency department. They are all people with hard lives, so they naturally know.

Calling the department to find the chief resident is just making things difficult for him.

Lai Zishu patted Jin Hongzhou on the shoulder: "How much longer do you have to go?"

"I don't know, our department didn't retain anyone this year, and there's no one to take over yet. Brother Shu, are you about to get off?" Jin Hongzhou asked while stretching his neck.

Lai Zishu rolled his eyes: "Thanks to those few geniuses in the department, I'm going to have to work another year. Damn it!"

"It's as if they can't afford to pay their phone bills..."

Jin Hongzhou immediately understood that something must have happened in the emergency room ward. The on-duty doctor hadn't reported it yet, and as a result, an accident occurred. The chief resident was the one responsible for everything that happened in the ward.

……

Finally, the patient was transferred to the emergency operating room.

Jin Hongzhou told Fang Ziye to quickly wash his hands, then began disinfecting, draping the patient, and preparing the necessary local anesthesia medication. Once inside the operating room, Fang Ziye saw the patient. After removing the temporary bandages, he found the bleeding was minimal, indicating no blood vessels had been damaged; otherwise, it wouldn't have been a small emergency surgery.

Disinfection and draping are just basic surgical procedures, which are no longer problems for Fang Ziye.

With everything ready, Jin Hongzhou and Fang Ziye were fully armed: "Come on, give me some anesthesia and then do some minor debridement. I'll stitch up the tendon later."

Fang Ziye didn't stand on ceremony; this wasn't the first time he'd used local anesthesia.

He took the syringe needle and skillfully injected a wheal into the surface of the muscle. Although the patient cried out, the pain was immediately relieved because of the local injection of lidocaine.

Fang Ziye continued to reassure her, "Right? I told you beforehand, it won't hurt anymore. The first time you get a needle, it will always hurt a little. Don't be nervous."

After the pain subsided, the patient joked, "Doctor, I knew it would hurt a little the first time!"

Fang Ziye immediately shut up; this guy's skill level was clearly higher than his own.

Let's just clean the wound properly.

Jin Hongzhou joked, "Brother, do you always get a shot for your first time?"

The patient instantly threw back the corner of the sheet, facing Jin Hongzhou, who was of a higher level, and said hatefully, "You'd better make me get up if you dare!"

Jin Hongzhou raised an eyebrow at him: "Big brother, it's no fun if you take jokes seriously."

The patient covered himself up again.

Before disinfection, a simple rinse had been done. Now, with Jin Hongzhou's assistance, Fang Ziye received a rare opportunity for proactive wound cleaning.

The debridement for this patient was quite simple; all that was needed was to remove the foreign object. There was no necrotic tissue that needed to be removed.

After removing some sand and gravel, Jin Hongzhou began suturing after rinsing the area again. Fang Ziye assisted him while standing on tiptoe to watch Jin Hongzhou suture the muscle.

After the muscle suturing was completed, Jin Hongzhou turned to look at Fang Ziye before handing over the subcutaneous and skin suturing back to Fang Ziye!

Simple skin suturing is definitely no problem for a master's student like Fang Ziye.

Fang Ziye's suturing skills have now been improved to level 2. He can suture orange peel without breaking it and the fit is excellent, let alone normal skin.

The battle was over in no time.

Jin Hongzhou wasn't surprised. He had no idea how good Fang Ziye's suturing skills were before. The current suturing skills were just average, far from amazing.

After rinsing the skin surface again and disinfecting with povidone-iodine, the gauze and cotton pads are applied outwards and secured with adhesive tape. Then, the simple sterile sheet is lifted.

"That's fine. Go downstairs later, get a tetanus shot, and take some antibiotics. You'll be all better then. Remember to change the dressing every two or three days and remove the stitches in about fourteen days..." Fang Ziye instructed, and then noticed...

My knowledge points jumped by 2 points, which is more than the number I got from cutting out a small lesion before, and the same number of knowledge points I got when I left the ward.

The number of procedures performed in this surgery was quite large, including minor debridement and suturing!
Diagnosis is equally important for infections.

However, for such minor injuries, diagnosis is not very meaningful; treatment is more important.

Is this the correct way to reap the benefits of knowledge points?

"Doctor, you look like you've had too many injections." After being bandaged, the patient stood up and started 'talking' at Jin Hongzhou again.

"Could you hit me like that? Are the number of hits and the duration enough?" Jin Hongzhou asked as he helped the patient out of the room.

"How many times?"

"Others howl like wolves all night long."

"Brother, you're awesome!" The two men's conversation gradually went astray.

Fang Ziye's lips trembled slightly as he watched from behind. Only after seeing the four points of knowledge displayed on the panel did he begin to feel happy again.
