In the afternoon, a scheduled patient arrived. Because of the busy work in the morning, she went directly to the ward to find a doctor in the afternoon. She was a patient who wanted a dical abortion. Doctor Zuoliang guided her in prescribing the dication for the patient.
The patient brought all previous examination reports. The doctor carefully reviewed the results again, including urine tests, blood tests, and ultrasound, to confirm that the size of the gestational sac t the requirents for dical abortion. Next, the risks of dical abortion needed to be explained to the patient.
Compared to surgical abortion, dical abortion may not completely clear the uterus, and if the dical abortion fails, a surgical abortion will be required. Three doses of dication are prescribed, and the third dose must be taken in the hospital under observation to allow the doctor to check whether the expelled tissue is the gestational sac. Additionally, the doctor can monitor the patient’s bleeding during the expulsion of the gestational sac and provide tily dical intervention if excessive bleeding occurs.
At Beidou Third Hospital, surgical abortion can be perford in the outpatient treatnt room, or in the gynecology and obstetrics treatnt rooms, depending on which doctor the patient consults. Even though Du Haiwei is now in the gynecology departnt, many patients still specifically seek out Doctor Du because of his previous fa in obstetrics.
After prescribing the dicine for the patient, Xie Wanying followed Doctor Zuoliang to the treatnt room. Their team didn’t have surgeries in the operating room in the afternoon, but so patients needed treatnt in the treatnt room.
The gynecology treatnt room was relatively larger than those of other departnts, with three beds separated by curtains.
When Xie Wanying and the others entered, there was a patient lying on bed number one while another group of teachers in disposable surgical gowns perford a surgical abortion on a patient. A group of dical students stood behind the teacher, maintaining a certain distance from the surgical area, watching and learning attentively, thus occupying the remaining space in the treatnt room.
Every so often, the operating teacher called out to the patient, "Hey, don’t move. If you move, it won’t be cleaned properly."
Dilatation and curettage is very painful, which could be seen from the patient’s sweating face.
An assistant, possibly an intern, stood next to the operating doctor. Besides handing surgical instrunts to the teacher, another important task was to arrange the extracted fetal body parts in the instrunt tray, making it clear for the teacher to ensure that everything was removed. If not fully cleaned, the remaining tissue would continue to develop in the patient’s uterus, leading to disastrous outcos.
As Xie Wanying had ntioned to classmate Hu Hao, such scenes are very nauseating, severely testing one’s conscience.
So dical students, upon seeing the extracted fetal bones, turned pale, covered their mouths, and turned aside, dry heaving.
Possibly due to this, those dical students truly wishing to stay in gynecology did not feel nauseated, at least not now.
Du ngen and Zhang Shuping stood at the back of the crowd.
Zhang Shuping seed unable to bear it, turning his head to look at the wall.
Du ngen, while observing, comnted, "This has been suctioned for most of the day and is still not clean."
Implying that the doctor’s skills were diocre, not as good as his father.
Zhang Shuping glanced at him, amazed that he could continue to make such purely technical comnts after witnessing the brutality.
"To be a surgeon, you can’t afford to be emotionally unsteady," Du ngen said in response to his glance. Then, the two of them noticed Xie Wanying entering.
The scheduled patient, led by a nurse, ca in, changed into a patient gown, and lay on bed number three, assuming the lithotomy position.
She was a patient with chronic cervicitis, scheduled for laser treatnt.
