The information on the dical record is not as intuitive as a CT scan. Given the current critical condition of the patient, there’s no opportunity to conduct an angiographic examination.
Doctors must rely on inferences made from the written dical records.
Geng Lingfei and Fan Yunyun nervously swallowed, flipping through their anatomical knowledge. The location of the common bile duct, clearly illustrated in anatomy textbooks with diagrams and descriptions, becos a whole different matter when it cos to individual patients.
Individual variations exist, and transforming a two-dinsional anatomical diagram into a three-dinsional space is hard to visualize.
Whether it’s the patient’s bile ducts or the drainage tubes, they are all located in the blind spots within the abdominal three-dinsional space.
The textbooks ntion that in such cases, one may attempt to compress the drainage tube and other asures to try to restore the flow of the bile duct. The doctors at the previous hospital must have tried such attempts over this prolonged period.
Their attempts failed. Moreover, they were the ones who operated on this patient, personally opened up the bile duct and placed drainage tubes, surely more knowledgeable about the patient’s internal condition than these doctors taking over. If they failed, what could these less inford doctors do?
If it were a more experienced doctor, perhaps they would rely on their dical experience?
So-called dical experience accumulates through each successful try, by finding the right approach and linking it with dical theory. To break it down would require nurous academic papers.
Song Xueling and Xie Wanying furrowed their brows, sifting through their minds for relevant papers to see if they could crack the challenge.
Suddenly, both seed to have the sa idea concurrently.
"Get saline solution, syringes," said Xie Wanying to the nurse.
"A 50-milliliter syringe?" asked the nurse, guessing they intended to perform low-pressure flushing on the patient’s drainage tube, but it was questionable if it would be effective since the previous hospital’s staff must have already done it.
"No, 2 milliliters," said Xie Wanying.
Hearing her words, Song Xueling narrowed his dark brown eyes. Given the current condition of the patient, using a 50-milliliter syringe for a high-volu flush was not appropriate due to potential complications such as bleeding.
But with only a 2-milliliter syringe, with just a tiny amount of fluid, could it really dislodge the blockage in the drainage tube? The nurse remained skeptical.
Teacher might be about to perform a miraculous operation, Geng Lingfei and Fan Yunyun stepped up to observe and learn.
Song Xueling and Xie Wanying changed their gloves, put on masks and disposable surgical gowns, asked others to step back for protection, and took a 2-milliliter syringe with a large bag of saline solution to tackle the difficult problem.
The best protection, really, was always being vigilant in mind, usually supported by protective thinking.
At that mont, people arrived outside the ward.
Yu Xuexian and Zhang Shuping were carrying the various items needed for Teacher Lu’s hospital stay. Kang Mingzhu was supporting Teacher Lu. Teacher Lu protested, saying, "I’m fine now, I can walk, my legs aren’t disabled, why do you need to support ?"
Kang Mingzhu could only walk beside Teacher Lu.
The group reached the entrance of the Hepatobiliary Surgery ward and saw a note on the door: For assistance, please call the departnt phone.
Yu Xuexian pushed the door, heard the sound of a chain, realizing it was locked, and complained, "Tao Zhijie didn’t ntion they would lock the door."
"Call them," said Teacher Lu, insisting on following proper protocols, especially within the sa hospital.
Yu Xuexian made a call to Tao Zhijie.
After a few rings, the elevator doors opened, and a group of people ca out.
