"Alright, that's all for the debridement. There shouldn't be any problems, right?" Wang Haiyang personally debrided the cut surface. It was also the first time they worked together. Otherwise, he would have been willing to let Ling Ran do the simplest step.
Ling Ran nodded gently.
"Hmm, how many times have you performed debridement?" Wang Haiyang was ready to ask a question.
Ling Ran thought for a moment and said, "A few hundred times."
"Huh? A few hundred times? "
"If we don't count the M-Tang technique surgeries, it should be a few hundred times." Ling Ran did not remember very clearly. When he first came to the Emergency Department, he did debridement and suturing for a period of time.
In the operating theater, debridement was also a basic skill. Most patients who received M-Tang technique surgery also needed debridement, which was the same as the patients who received finger replantation surgery.
Wang Haiyang nodded calmly. "Then, if you include the M-Tang technique debridement, have you performed more than a thousand debridement cases?"
"Probably." Ling Ran would not be modest when it came to this kind of number.
Wang Haiyang paused for a moment and quickly changed his question. He said, "Then, what do you think is the most important part of debridement?"
Ling Ran rarely worked as an assistant for senior doctors. At this moment, he could not help but feel a little unaccustomed to the environment, and he hesitated.
Wang Haiyang chuckled and said, "It's okay. Don't worry, just say it."
It was a popular scene at the operating table for senior doctors to ask junior doctors questions, especially when there were young nurses in the operating theater. Senior doctors who had better skills would always receive a few sweet and fake laughs when they asked junior doctors questions.
The superiority of the skills of senior doctors and junior doctors was a characteristic of the medical community.
For technicians in other professions, the peak of their skills might be concentrated around the age of thirty to forty. Very few of them could still maintain their peak at the age of fifty.
The medical community was different.
Doctors studied for a lifetime. In other words, medical students who graduated from bachelor's degree had only studied for five years, and doctoral students had studied for seven or eight years, or a little longer. Attending physicians had been studying medicine for about fifteen years, and associate chief physicians had twenty or more years of experience.
After such a long period of study, and the scope of questions was decided by the senior doctors, it was almost certain that their skills would be superior.
Most of the time, senior doctors' questions to junior doctors were like high school students asking questions to elementary school students.
Naturally, Wang Haiyang would not see Ling Ran as a primary school student. No matter what, a young man who knew how to perform the M-Tang technique was already at the level of a junior high school student. If he performed it well, Wang Haiyang would look at him even more highly. However, Wang Haiyang would not think about these things carefully. He was just subconsciously teasing the young first assistant.
When he saw Ling Ran thinking, Wang Haiyang became even more interested and urged him, "Don't be anxious, think about it more."
The nurses in the operating theater also looked at Ling Ran.
The young first assistant, Ling Ran, did not think much about debridement and suturing. He said disappointingly, "If I have to say something, the most important thing in debridement is to clean up the wound and not cause any secondary damage."
"A little like that …" Wang Haiyang smiled and was about to explain when the door opened.
"No … no … sorry, I'm late." Lu Wenbin was extremely regretful. It was a rare experience to have a chief physician perform surgery, even though the chief physician was not his department's chief physician.
Wang Haiyang, who was in the operating theater, was an elder who was easier to talk to. He smiled faintly and said, "As long as you don't shout 'no good' and rush in again, I'll forgive you."
"Ah … about that, I'm sorry." Lu Wenbin did not know how to continue the conversation.
"It's okay, we've just … Hmm, we're almost done with the bone setting." Wang Haiyang could not help but raise his head and look at Ling Ran.
The first assistant's help to the chief surgeon was usually hidden. They would help passively under the chief surgeon's control.
A good first assistant could effectively increase the speed of the surgery.
During the bone setting process, Ling Ran did all the tidying work. As the chief surgeon, Wang Haiyang only needed to easily connect the bone …
Wang Haiyang coughed a few times and said, "Hmm, Ling Ran, you actually know how to connect bones, right?"
"I know how to connect the bones of a severed finger," Ling Ran said.
The Finger Replantation Surgery he obtained actually included many tasks. Aside from the simplest debridement, it also included bone setting, blood vessel anastomosis, nerve anastomosis, tendon suture, and skin suture.
Among them, bone setting was the only thing Ling Ran did not know at all. He had already learned the rest.
Of course, the reason why the Finger Replantation Surgery was at Perfect Level was very likely because he had all kinds of comprehensive abilities.
Wang Haiyang nodded subconsciously and said, "His skills are very good."
He could make such a judgment just by looking at Ling Ran's cooperation.
Ling Ran only smiled faintly.
"Next, it's time to suture the tendon. Oh, this is your specialty." Wang Haiyang smiled and said, "But I'll still do it personally this time. I'll pass it to you later."
As Wang Haiyang spoke, he began to trim the section of the tendon.
Ling Ran circled his head and continuously used scissors and scalpel to help.
As for Lu Wenbin, he could only watch dumbly by the side.
He was useless now. Besides, the circulating nurses and the others were busy, and no one could help him put on the surgical gown.
Ling Ran focused, and his mind worked quickly.
He had sutured too many tendons. Usually, he stood in the position of the chief surgeon and thought about problems. Now that he was the first assistant, he felt that it was a new experience, and he could use his own experience.
This feeling was like the pilot of a two-man fighter plane who changed from the front to the back to be the weapons officer, or the elite archer of Kings of Glory who changed to a support role.
The importance of the position had become less important, but if one was capable enough, he could still carry the entire game.
At this moment, Wang Haiyang clearly felt Ling Ran's ability to carry the team.
This was especially so when it came to the suturing stage. After Wang Haiyang poked the tendon, the first assistant Ling Ran took care of the remaining knots and needle threading, and he did it well and quickly.
This meant that Ling Ran could complete the fuse, knot, and adjust the position of the needle while Wang Haiyang was threading the needle.
Wang Haiyang, who originally wanted to ask more questions, immediately became alert.
"It's really good when young people move." Wang Haiyang first praised Ling Ran before he said to Lu Wenbin, "Um, play some music for us. Play some pop music. Let's go with the Little Tigers."
Chief Physician Wang Haiyang casually ordered Lu Wenbin around. He did not feel any psychological burden at all.
Lu Wenbin was very happy that he still had value in being ordered around, so much so that when he heard the melody of "Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar", he had the urge to dance when he heard it.
"Chief Physician Wang, shall we continue suturing?" the first assistant Ling Ran asked the chief surgeon.
"Oh, of course." Wang Haiyang chuckled and lowered his head to work.
He did not expect how many times he would hear this sentence today.
During the process of suturing the tendon, he heard it twice.
During the process of nerve anastomosis, he heard it thrice.
Chief Physician Wang originally wanted to talk about the most complicated part of blood vessel anastomosis, but he was still urged by Ling Ran.
"Chief Physician Wang, shall we continue suturing?"
"Chief Physician Wang, shall we continue suturing?"
Now, every time Wang Haiyang heard this sentence, his hands would unnaturally move faster.
Ling Ran's cooperation was naturally faster.
He had Perfect Level Finger Replantation Skill, and he was just a little diffident because it was his first time suturing.
Things would be different if there was a chief physician leading the way. Ling Ran could provide Perfect Level Finger Replantation Skill.
To put it simply, aside from Ling Ran being a little impatient, all his cooperation made Wang Haiyang feel extremely comfortable and efficient.
Wang Haiyang originally planned to operate on Ling Ran during the nerve anastomosis, but when it came to the end, he could not bear to let go.
For doctors, being able to perform surgeries with great ease was a very comfortable thing in itself.
