Ouyang Kan twisted his butt awkwardly, and the stool under him squeaked.
He was tall, and his weight was above average. At that moment, he was curled up like a piece of meat pressing against the small stool. At least, that was what Su Jiafu thought.
The stool in the operating theater was originally used by anesthetists if surgeons did not need to sit down for surgery. Some surgeries went on for too long, or anesthetists worked for too long, so they would put two stool in a row, lean their backs against the wall, and take a short nap.
Of course, it was against the rules, but it also felt good. What Su Jiafu hated the most was surgeons snatching the anesthetists' stool. Surgeons had already snatched too many things from anesthetists, such as attention, the opportunity to show off, and showing off … Now, they still wanted to snatch the stool?
Was there any justice in this?
"Department Director Wei is here." The attending physician of anesthesiology suddenly said something, and he lowered his head to look at the computer … and pretended to be busy.
Ouyang Kan looked in the direction of the attending physician of anesthesiology and saw that in the visitation room upstairs, Wei Qing, another senior associate chief physician of the General Surgery Department, was not the only one who came, the department director of the General Surgery Department and two other associate chief physicians were also here.
Ouyang Kan smiled indifferently, but he said, "The visitation room built by the Emergency Medical Center is really grand."
"I heard that Yunli Medical Company specially poached a team to build it, and they paid them three million as a signing fee." The attending physician of anesthesiology clicked his tongue and gossiped. Anesthetists were either gossiping or high. From this point of view, it was safer to gossip.
Ouyang Kan did not believe it. "Three million is too much. Nowadays, building houses makes more money than digging intestines."
"Don't say digging intestines, it sounds too good." The attending physician of anesthesiology chuckled. Because of their age difference, he did not joke about digging feces.
"How much did Department Director Huo spend to build this visitation room?" Ouyang Kan did not want to talk about the problem of digging feces, so he changed the topic.
The attending physician of anesthesiology smiled. "Just a few million."
"Yunli Medical Company made a loss? So much? "
"How can it be? The construction cost is not that high. Besides, look at how many hospitals want to build visitation rooms nowadays. "The attending physician of anesthesiology smiled sarcastically." The money is the hospital's, but you can show it off yourself. Right? Surgeons, heh … "
Even as a surgeon, Ouyang Kan could not argue for a surgeon. If there was a category of people who loved to show off in the hospital, it would definitely be the surgeons, followed by the director of the Orthopedics Department.
"Yunli Medical Company has made a killing." The attending physician from the anesthesiology department continued gossiping. "Now, not only hospitals in Changxi Province have come to take a look, but hospitals in the other provinces have also come to place orders. I heard that Yunli Medical Company's business has already expanded to Beijing and Shanghai. Forget about earning back the money we spent to poach our team, we've already earned back many times the amount we spent on them."
"Yunli Medical Company is quite bold."
"That's why they're so popular now, just like us …" The attending physician of anesthesiology pouted and said, "Yunli Medical Company supports us to use the drugs from other companies. As for other companies, they use whatever is good. They pick out the best ones, and they fight for the rights to be their distributors. Think about it, as long as a company like this continues doing business, how good will it be? The drugs they sell are all good drugs that have been refined over and over again. In the end, even if they can make you not use them, you still have to use them."
Ouyang Kan nodded quietly, but he did not continue talking about this topic. After all, the people upstairs were from the General Surgery Department, and the choice of pharmaceutical sales companies and drugs was a sensitive topic. Even within the same department, it was not easy to talk about it.
The attending physician of anesthesiology also realized that he had gone too deep into the topic, so he quickly changed the topic. "The General Surgery Department is quite concerned about this. Even the department director is here?"
"How can we not be concerned?" Ouyang Kan smiled in disappointment. "If I remember correctly, this is the first time Yun Hua Hospital has performed a laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer."
"First time?" The attending physician of anesthesiology looked at Ouyang Kan in surprise.
"I don't believe in this, and the data doesn't support it either." Ouyang Kan's thoughts were a little complicated. He said, "The Japanese started performing laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the nineties. They've been doing it for more than twenty years, but it's not very popular. They can't even discuss it among themselves. In other countries other than Japan, only a few hospitals have done it experimentally, and not many of them have done it. "
The development of new techniques was always carried out step by step, especially in the field of surgery. Because human lives were at stake, it depended more on the surgeon's own knowledge and understanding.
In short, medical centers in more than thirty developed countries in the world, excluding China and China, produced a large number of new techniques and new developments every year. For medical professionals in a country, whether to learn, how to learn, and how to carry out the development was a brand new topic.
Moreover, learning was not just a matter of copying. There was also a process of understanding, researching, and absorbing.
For example, laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer was relatively slow in the world. This was because of the high difficulty of the technique, and the different opinions of medical experts in different countries.
On the one hand, doctors who supported laparotomy believed that the stomach had a rich blood supply, and the lymphatic structure was complicated, so laparoscopic gastrectomy had a high probability of recurrence. On the other hand, doctors who supported laparoscopic gastrectomy believed that laparoscopy could be used for any surgery. They believed that laparotomy could be performed with laparoscopy as long as it could be performed. It was just a matter of the difficulty of the technique.
Those who liked laparoscopy were young doctors in their forties or fifties, but Ouyang Kan was a conservative who had performed more than a thousand open gastrectomy for gastric cancer. If he was asked to switch to laparoscopy now, he would definitely be unwilling, and he would not be able to learn it.
However, Ouyang Kan was still willing to see Ling Ran perform it, but he was not very optimistic about it.
"It's not easy to be the first." Ouyang Kan glanced upstairs and looked away.
"Didn't they say that Japan did some?"
"They did 2,600 cases in ten years. Only a few doctors are doing this. Are they from a faction in Japanese hospitals?" Ouyang Kan stopped talking when the door of the operating theater opened, and the patient was sent in.
The circulating nurse did not need to be told. She gently checked the patient's name and other information before she started to establish a venous access. Then, she placed the aspirator on the side of the patient's head, inserted the urethral catheter, and positioned the patient.
At the same time, the anesthetist and anesthetist assistant also started to get busy.
Usually, when the anesthetist was alone in a surgery, the circulating nurse would also need to help. But today, Su Jiafu was helping, so the anesthetist was able to do it more smoothly.
"Two people should perform anesthesia, right?" The anesthetist praised. He then saw Ouyang Kan, who was beside him, also start to prepare for the surgery. His movements were so skillful that it made the anesthetist feel sorry for him. The way he did it was easy for him. No one knew how many years he had worked as an assistant before he managed to form an instinctive assistant skill. After that, he performed surgeries independently for many years before he became an associate chief physician …
