Jiang Xilin brought everyone to change their clothes and shoes before entering the operating theater.
The operating theater was like a normal operating theater. However, a crane system was installed at the top and cabinets were added at the side.
The crane system sounded complicated, but it was not difficult to understand. It was just a few mechanical arms extending from the ceiling. Based on their different functions, they existed as anesthesia cranes and surgery cranes. The most important part was the surgery cranes. Depending on the buyer's requirements, there were single-arm cranes and four-arm cranes.
In reality, the da Vinci system, which cost twenty million RMB per unit, was three big lumps. The most sci-fi looking console was like a super awesome game console. It was the kind that buried the surgeon in it. The cabinets that contained the imaging system were tall and thin. The volume was about the same as a fat person's stomach. However, they were much taller and looked more handsome. The crane system could be used or not. If they wanted to save money or take advantage of money, they could also install a large shelf on the other side of the operating table and place the mechanical arms on it.
Intuitive's demonstration machine often did this, but it was rarely used in hospitals. At the end of the day, a surgery was still a surgery. The inconvenience of having one side of the operating table occupied was obvious. Besides, hospitals did not care much about cost-effectiveness when they spent money.
When Jiang Xilin showed them, he deliberately said, "Although our da Vinci robot is called a robot, it still needs to be operated by a human. During the surgery, we suggest that there should always be someone beside the patient. The chief surgeon can operate in the operating theater next door. In this operating theater, we still need an assistant who is dressed neatly and washed his hands. Not only can he assist in the surgery, but if there is an accident, he can also switch to open surgery at any time. Especially when everyone has just started the surgery, it's best not to omit this step. "
He had only introduced the equipment for a short while, and this was obviously the most important part.
Regardless of whether everyone understood him, Jiang Xilin continued to explain, "Using the da Vinci robot is like using laparoscopes and other surgical equipment. When everything goes well, it is the best surgical tool you can find. It's never too much praise. But no matter how many times it goes well, it's necessary to be prepared just in case. You may have seen some videos before. The operating theater is empty, and the patient is being operated on by a mechanical arm. This kind of video is mainly for posing. "
Jiang Xilin smiled and said, "Of course, it's not a problem for our Da Vinci to complete the surgery on his own. Some foreign countries also use the single-surgeon model, but in our country, we don't recommend doing this. On the one hand, it's because our manpower cost is not that high, unlike some foreign countries, where a surgery team consisting of two people can't wait to spend money for a surgery team consisting of four people. "On the other hand, the intensity of the surgeries in our hospital is high, and the doctors are well-trained. It will be very convenient for us to have someone in the room. Otherwise, if there's something big or small, the chief surgeon will have to dress up properly before he goes in. It's troublesome. "
"Understood." Lu Wenbin pursed his lips and said, "The doctors in our country aren't worth much. It's better to put one in there just in case."
"There are more benefits." Jiang Xilin acted as if he did not hear Lu Wenbin's sarcasm and said, "It's still difficult to use the robot at the beginning. It's more convenient to have a surgeon inside. Besides, with the limitations of our robot, it's better to open the abdomen when there's more bleeding. "
"It's the same principle as laparoscopy," Ma Yanlin added in an understanding tone.
Jiang Xilin smiled. "Just like Doctor Ling's very famous barehanded bleeding control. Even in the era of robots, it can still shine."
"You mean to put Doctor Ling in the room inside, right?" Lu Wenbin chuckled.
Even though Jiang Xilin had a medical background and was slightly better than Lu Wenbin in terms of educational background, he had been a sales engineer in a pharmaceutical sales company for many years, and he had become very tactful with his words. "Doctor Ling can do both inside and outside. In our words, he can go up and down, inside and outside."
When it came to Ling Ran, Lu Wenbin only dared to tease him. He quickly put it away, looked around, and said, "I saw in some pictures, the operating table is placed in the operating theater inside. It's just a big house."
This sentence of his was also to prove that he had prepared for it.
Jiang Xilin nodded. "There are benefits to placing the control panel inside or outside. It's better to communicate inside. If there's a problem, the chief surgeon can directly deal with it, and it's faster. If it's placed outside, the chief surgeon can usually relax. He doesn't need to follow the requirements of a clean operating theater. He can also wash his hands and change his clothes. There's a coffee pot beside him, and he can eat or drink something in between … "
"He can drink coffee while performing surgery?" Lu Wenbin suddenly had countless fantasies in his mind. Every fantasy was similar to the one before. He was tall and strong, and he was performing surgery as a famous doctor. The only difference was that he was still drinking coffee while performing surgery, and it was a little cool.
The other doctors also showed all kinds of fantasies. Young doctors were usually the happiest at this moment.
Jiang Xilin seemed to understand. He waited for a few seconds, and when they were done, he said, "Whether you can drink coffee or not depends on the hospital's rules. But when you operate, your eyes must be glued to the eyepiece. Let me show you."
As Jiang Xilin spoke, he sat on a chair and moved to the control panel. He said, "Other than the hand operation, there are also a few control pedals under the feet of the da Vinci. The black one on the left controls the movement and direction of the mechanical arm. The right one is the same as the normal pedals of the endotherm knife. The yellow one is for incision, and the blue one is for hemostasis."
From the operator's point of view, the da Vinci's control panel had a big skull on top of it. In the middle was a ring-shaped arm. When one placed his hand on it, he could just touch the two joysticks. The part under the feet was slightly similar to a piano. There were a total of six pedals in the upper and lower rows, and it was clear.
When the operator sat on it and put their eyes on the concave part in the middle of the skull, it was as if the operator was embedded in the machine, and they began to feel like they were operating a robot.
Jiang Xilin said as he posed, "The most direct improvement of our surgical robot and laparoscope, other than the fine mechanical arm, is this 3D vision. Therefore, before the surgeon uses it, he must first do a 3D correction. Because everyone's eye condition is different, the results of this correction are different. But it's very fast and very simple …"
As he spoke, he completed the correction for himself. Then, he operated the mechanical arm and started to loop a toy on the hospital bed.
They saw Jiang Xilin sitting outside the operating theater. Above the operating table in the operating theater, the mechanical arm was already moving slowly. In the blink of an eye, the neck of a toy on the operating table was tied with a rope. One round, two rounds, three rounds …
"Done." After six rounds, the mechanical arm pricked the neck of the toy. Jiang Xilin stood up and said, "Who wants to try?"
"Inside or outside?" Lu Wenbin asked as he touched his neck.
Ma Yanlin stood up and said confidently, "I'll do it."
