"Attention, everyone. The surgery is starting." Lu Wenbin did not care about the rules of the Cleveland Clinic. He first shouted in a low voice, then trembled a little.
The surgical procedure had to be carried out according to the procedures they were used to, but the temperature of the operating theater was preset by the Cleveland Heart Center.
The temperature of the operating theater was less than 20 degrees Celsius, which was two to three degrees lower than that of Yun Hua Hospital. This could not only reduce the reproduction of microorganisms, but it could also better protect the body during cardiac surgery. However, the patient's protection measures had to be more in place, such as the configuration of heating blankets. These were essential, and the nurses had to set different temperatures according to the situation, so the requirements were higher.
In this regard, Ling Ran did not ask to follow the model of Yun Hua Hospital.
Temperature was a systematic project. It was not easy for him to achieve a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius in the operating theater of Yun Hua Hospital.
Ling Ran's second assistant was an American resident doctor, and he looked very focused. He did not care whether Ling Ran's skills were good or not. He was still a doctor who had yet to complete his training. He needed to perform excellently at all times so that he could achieve his dream in the early stages of his career — to stay in the Cleveland Clinic.
The training time for cardiothoracic surgeons in the United States was the longest, but the employment satisfaction rate was also the lowest. Compared to China, the use of cardiac stents in the United States was not as high, but it still greatly affected the number of patients in the cardiothoracic surgery department. Needless to say, the best cardiothoracic surgeons still had full schedules, and there were still a lot of patients. But the doctors in the middle and lower ranks had to face the dilemma of changing professions or even becoming professional assistants.
For new cardiothoracic surgeons, the professional pressure was naturally more severe, so they had to pay more.
However, on the bright side, a resident doctor who could make a name for himself in the Cleveland Clinic could be considered to have made a name for himself in the industry.
In order to achieve this goal, a university graduate needed to go through almost ten years of professional training before they could obtain professional "freedom". In terms of years, it was much longer than Lu Wenbin's time in the medical field.
Therefore, this second assistant also gave Lu Wenbin a lot of pressure.
Under the other party's gaze, Lu Wenbin was on the verge of making mistakes twice.
Fortunately, Ling Ran was always in control of the surgery. Aside from the limited damage caused by Lu Wenbin's mistakes, Ling Ran had already prepared a reserve.
After the surgery went on for ten minutes, Lu Wenbin gradually entered a good state, and his eyes no longer drifted to the second assistant.
Ling Ran calmed down a little, and he began to experience the difference between the Mirror Image and the Mirror Image.
Doctors who had never performed mirror-image surgeries usually needed some time before they could reach a certain level of familiarity.
After all, doctors had a certain mindset and muscle memory when it came to the anatomical structure of a normal human body. It was just like walking in one's own house. Turning left at the end of the corridor would lead to the kitchen. Even if one's eyes were blocked by the pile of packages in one's arms, one would still naturally turn left. But if it was a mirror-like room, the smoothness would definitely not be as good.
To a certain extent, ordinary doctors were not affected as much. In fact, ordinary doctors' training was mostly to familiarize themselves with the anatomical structure of a normal human body.
If an ordinary person was placed in front of a resident doctor, or a mirror image was placed in front of a resident doctor, the difficulty of the latter's surgery might not increase by much. After all, it was just a trial.
However, for a doctor like Ling Ran, it was not easy for him to adapt to the fact that the anatomical structure that he was very familiar with in the past had suddenly become unfamiliar to him.
Fortunately, the mirror image was a mirror image of a normal human body. There was a pattern to it, which greatly reduced the difficulty of familiarizing himself with it.
Ling Ran was now in the process of familiarizing himself with the mirror image.
His movements changed from slow to fast. The range of changes was not large, and it allowed his assistant to get used to it. Lu Wenbin and the resident doctors of the Cleveland Clinic did not feel much of a difference.
However, doctors like Felix could clearly see the difference. Ling Ran's speed increased linearly.
If it was just familiarity, it was naturally impossible for his speed to increase linearly. In other words, it was very rare for a single person to increase linearly.
Felix became a little excited and whispered, "That's it."
There were many reasons for inviting Ling Ran to the Cleveland Clinic, but at the end of the day, Felix was attracted by Ling Ran's skills.
Felix was originally a little worried about Ling Ran during today's surgery. He was worried that Ling Ran would not be able to perform perfectly. He was worried that Ling Ran would be conflicted and make mistakes under pressure … After all, the surgery was for the mirror image. But this was Ling Ran's request, and it was also a "gift" from the central boss, Osbern, so Felix could not influence it.
However, Ling Ran performed perfectly, so everyone could not take their eyes off him.
"There are a lot of mirror image people in China, right?" a doctor suddenly said, and the atmosphere in the visitation room suddenly relaxed.
Someone took the opportunity to laugh.
"Every surgery I've seen in China is like this." Felix chuckled and shook his head. He then added, "It's not a mirror image surgery, but the completion rate of every surgery is extremely high. You've all seen the proficiency and difficulty …"
"Every surgery is like this?"
Karen also said, "In China's words, it's high standards and strict requirements. Doctor Ling's surgery, what we saw … Hey, you guys … "
Ling Ran, who was in front of the operating table, had already finished the foreplay. He began to pull the blood vessels and suture.
If it were a specialist cardiac surgeon in the United States, most of them would only do this part. They would leave the process of thoracotomy and other follow-up work to the professional assistants.
This was a very big difference between China and the United States. If doctors in China wanted to transfer their work, they could only rely on their position, authority, personal charm, and so on. Many skilled specialists in cardiology had to do more work on their own when they did not have skilled subordinates.
When doctors in the United States transferred their work, they could not only rely on their subordinates but also hire professional assistants with money. Professional assistants were usually surgeons who did not have a smooth development in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, so much so that they could get fewer and fewer jobs on their own. At the same time, they faced high student loans and professional insurance, and in the end, they became professional assistants of other attending physicians.
Because of this, the doctors in the room naturally had a better understanding and understanding of the main parts of the surgery than the minor details.
And the intensity of Ling Ran's operation had also greatly increased.
If he wanted to perform heart bypass surgery well, he would naturally have to work harder during the heart bypass surgery.
A faster speed could reduce the damage to the heart. Less contact could reduce the probability of blood vessel spasms and blockage again. A tighter suture could reduce the chance of leakage, and greatly increase the success rate of the surgery …
All of these sounded easy, but it was harder to do. Moreover, they all contradicted each other.
For example, it was very difficult for ordinary people or ordinary doctors to have less contact. A living human heart was slippery and tough. It was difficult to keep it stable when one held it. If one wanted to suture these two blood vessels, one had to pay attention to the strength and frequency of pinching …
If one thought about it carefully, a plumber would often have to think twice before installing a water pipe. If there was a limit to the frequency of blood vessel contact during a heart surgery, there would naturally be fewer doctors who would notice it and take the initiative to reduce the frequency of blood vessel contact.
The Cleveland Clinic's Heart Center was filled with world-class surgeons, and the number of experts who visited was like a school of carps crossing the river. But because of this, everyone had a clearer understanding of the quality of the surgeries and the level of the doctors' skills.
"You're right." Osborn nodded at Felix. He looked at Ling Ran and said, "This is the best."
