Chapter 70 Guarding the Home (Please add to your favorites and read on)

With the Orthopaedics Conference (COA) approaching, Sun Shaoqing's graduation is also drawing near. In addition, the recent campus recruitment and job hunting assessments are also approaching.

Fang Ziye, a third-year master's student who is already qualified to pursue a doctorate, has no practical experience. Basically, all clinical practice opportunities belong to Sun Shaoqing, while even second-year and first-year doctoral students like Wang Yuanqi have to watch.

Naturally, no matter what, mid-November arrived as scheduled, and so did the COA date.

More than half of the staff in the department are gone.

Professor Deng Yong will definitely be there. He is also the chairman of a sub-venue and has two reports to give, so he cannot be absent.

Associate Professor Xie Jinyuan is also going; he is an invited guest at a sub-venue, and is essentially a young and middle-aged key member being led around by a bigwig.

Yuan Weihong is also going. He is currently a young backbone member. Although he doesn't have a seat in the main hall, he still wants to show his abilities in the youth hall. He will give a lecture on the treatment of bone defects.

The Department of Trauma Surgery at Zhongnan Hospital specializes in the treatment of nonunion fractures.

All that remained was Dr. Qin Geluo, the attending physician, who stayed at home.

Among the doctoral students, Sun Shaoqing originally planned to go, but it conflicted with the recruitment of Zhejiang University Affiliated Hospital, so now he has to go to Zhejiang Province to try his luck.

Senior Brother Wang Yuanqi went along, but Senior Brother Gu Yi did not.

Li Yuanpei was away again for his doctoral application assessment, and he was absent again. As for the second-year master's students, Shu Lang, who was Professor Deng Yong's student, stayed behind, while Associate Professor Xie Jinyuan took his student Gong Ziming with him.

Jie Han and Zhu Yunwen, both first-year students, went to the venue.

As a result, the remaining members of Professor Deng Yong's group were Qin Geluo, Gu Yi, Luo Tingzhu, Fang Ziye, Shu Lang, and Lan Tianluo, one of whom was in charge of treating five small kala-azars.

The annual meeting lasted for five days, from Wednesday to Sunday.

Wednesday happened to be one of Yuan Weihong's clinic days, which made Fang Ziye depressed for half a day. That was worth dozens of knowledge points!

However, although she lost the knowledge points from the outpatient days, Qin Geluo began to exert his efforts because of the vacancy of the senior staff in the department.

Starting Tuesday evening, Qin Geluo began looking for patients with common fractures and also asked the chief resident, Jin Hongzhou, to bring some minor injuries into the department for treatment.

Since the beds were empty anyway, we just picked the ones that were available and treated patients that Zhongnan Hospital didn't want before.

The beds are still fully booked, and the surgeries have been scheduled intensively since Wednesday.

After a brief handover, the three groups of monkey kings—Qin Geluo, Li Nuo, and Jin Hongzhou—were like wild horses unleashed, each starting to cause trouble.

Jin Hongzhou said, "Brother Nuo, Brother Luo, then I'll be admitting patients without restraint these next two days. I'll admit any simple traumas I can handle, and you can handle the ones I can't."

"You can't handle this either. Let the bosses come back and deal with it?"

Before Qin Geluo could express his opinion, Li Nuo stroked his chin and said, "Anyway, the operating room in the trauma surgery department is empty right now. We can build up elective surgeries as we like, and for emergency surgeries, we can arrange a batch in the department and also arrange a batch in the outpatient and emergency operating room."

"There are still joint dislocations, right? Send them all to the wards. It's such a good opportunity."

Qin Geluo then said, "Hongzhou, our team can take some patients with open fractures. If you don't want to admit any, send them to me. How many beds are available in our team right now?"

Qin Geluo asked Gu Yi and Luo Tingzhu.

"Four."

"Then three more patients will be discharged today, making a total of seven beds. I've already called the head of the emergency department. If there's an emergency, call you over. If not, I'll come over." Qin Geluo seemed to have been waiting for this day for a long time.

Normally, the department only handles major surgeries and doesn't take on minor surgeries. Most patients come in from the outpatient clinic, so Qin Geluo doesn't have the opportunity to perform surgeries.

Now that they're all away, Qin Geluo is determined to take this opportunity to indulge in being the chief surgeon.

Jin Hongzhou thought for a moment before replying, "Brother Luo, it's possible, but we haven't treated any fracture patients for a long time, so the ambulance might not be willing to send them to our hospital. In the past, they always said there were no beds available."

"If there's a patient, we'll take them; if not, that's fine too. Let's all rest together..." Qin Geluo said, taking it easy. After handing over the shift, Fang Ziye's first action was to hand the patient over to Lan Tianluo, then go to the lab and cancel his scheduled experiment.

With Qin Geluo doing things this way, there's practically no time left for experiments; he probably won't even have time to go to the training room.

However, Qin Geluo and the others were really capable. It was only 8:50 in the morning, and Fang Ziye hadn't even returned from the lab yet, but Qin Geluo and Li Nuo had already started performing manual reduction of simple fractures in the operating room of the ward.

Lan Tianluo and Gu Yi watched from the sidelines, while Luo Tingzhu was in her office treating patients.

"Senior Brother Fang, were all the orthopedic department meetings this intense in the past?" Luo Tingzhu asked, quite puzzled, as Fang Ziye entered the office.

Fang Ziye responded with an awkward laugh: "I don't know, my master used to take me to the annual gatherings."

Fang Ziye has never been a homemaker.

Of course, seeing this scene, Fang Ziye also felt that it might not necessarily be a bad thing.

Li Nuo, Qin Geluo, and the others had been holding back for a long time. Wasn't Gu Yi, a PhD, the same as him and Luo Tingzhu? In fact, their abilities were completely child's play when it came to performing minor debridement surgeries.

However, the result did not disappoint Fang Ziye.

Around 11 a.m., perhaps because Jin Hongzhou was doing too well in the emergency department, patients of all ages were crowding into the department, resulting in a shortage of staff.

Luo Tingzhu's phone rang first: "Tingzhu, go to the emergency operating room. There's a small incision there that needs stitching up. Jin Hongzhou made a mistake."

"Just sign the consent form and remember to get a tetanus shot."

Luo Tingzhu nodded: "Am I alone? Teacher Qin, one person isn't enough, is it?"

"Look around the department, see who's available. Lan Tianluo is in the operating room right now. Are Wu Chengwen and Fang Ziye here?"

“Senior Brother Ziye is in his office, writing medical records,” Luo Tingzhu replied.

"Why bother writing medical records? We'll write them tonight. Let's practice first, it's simple, you'll definitely have no problem."

After saying that, Qin Geluo changed his mind: "Oh, by the way, Fang Ziye's skills are pretty good too. Can I use it? Sister Xia, do you have any spare operating rooms available...?"

Two minutes later.

Fang Ziye and Luo Tingzhu stared at each other, dumbfounded.

The Orthopedics Annual Meeting is not just about trauma surgery.

Bone tumor, joint surgery, sports medicine, and bone disease specialties do not perform emergency surgeries. Elective surgeries are generally quite large, and many attending physicians who remain in the hospital do not have surgical authority. Therefore, the operating rooms in the orthopedics department, except for the joint surgery operating room, are all empty.

Even though Li Nuo and Qin Geluo each occupied a room, and the joint surgery department had one room for debridement, there were still two empty rooms.

Since Fang Ziye and Luo Tingzhu couldn't go into the emergency operating room, Qin Geluo arranged for Fang Ziye to go into another orthopedic operating room to perform another debridement and suturing procedure on the front of the thigh.

"Junior Sister Luo, let's get to work."

“Such an opportunity is actually rare.” Fang Ziye thought for a moment, then simply ended the medical record with a period, clicked save, and stood up.

Luo Tingzhu nodded as well.

Just guard your home; all you need to do is guard it well.

Even minor surgeries are still surgeries. Minor surgeries like debridement and suturing are something that ordinary resident physicians like Qin Geluo can perform under the guidance of their superiors. For highly experienced graduate students like Fang Ziye and Luo Tingzhu, it's even more no problem.

As a result, Fang Ziye was greeted with an even bigger wave of knowledge points!
