"What’s the matter?" Doctor Hu didn’t hear them getting to work and shouted again, "If you can’t do it, get down, let her take over!"
Being about to be replaced by Student Xie, Shen Xifei was greatly stimulated. Doctor Hu’s words felt like a whip lashing her, and all she could do was charge forward like cattle.
Her hand held the scalpel and sliced down the pregnant woman’s skin.
The surgery began.
An incision was made in the lower part of the uterus. Xie Wanying assisted beside her, quickly applying gauze to stop the bleeding, then using the suction device to remove blood, keen to expose the inner uterus as soon as possible.
The uterus opened to reveal the amniotic sac. Without concern for the size of the incision in the pregnant woman, the doctor enlarged the surgical field to make the fetus visible, so it could be taken out. Cutting through the amniotic sac, the baby’s head erged.
Shen Xifei reached to grasp the baby’s head, but she was so hungry and weak that she couldn’t hold the child; the baby’s head slipped from her palm. She couldn’t help but mutter quietly: "Bad luck."
Though he couldn’t see, Doctor Hu knew, just by Shen Xifei’s inhalation, that she’d missed a key mont, and imdiately called out, "Soone else!"
Xie Wanying’s hands swiftly reached out, replacing the Chief Surgeon, grabbing the baby’s head before it fell back into the uterus, gently but firmly holding the baby’s head, she decisively and quickly extracted the baby from the mother’s body.
Her actions were so swift and precise, causing everyone watching on-site to exclaim in amazent.
This person is incredible. The people at the clinic exclaid in admiration, nearly bursting.
Upon hearing others’ praises for Xie Wanying, Shen Xifei felt truly unwilling about failing at the last critical mont. The problem was, she was too weak to curse, her body trembling like soone in severe illness after her failure to hold, halos spinning around her head, a sign of low blood sugar.
The Chief Surgeon saw her in this condition and was of no help. Xie Wanying decisively called for the on-duty doctor at the clinic to assist.
Simultaneously, the nurse assisted Shen Xifei off the operating table.
Shen Xifei sat nearby waiting to be fed sugar water, feeling like crying. The most baffling thing to her was how, despite Xie Wanying presumably not having ti for dinner either and having been busy at the hospital all day like her, she remained energized and showed no signs of hunger.
Opportunity is always only available to those consistently prepared; honors students have a stunning intelligence about them in this regard. Xie Wanying had already eaten a "dinner" in the taxi.
Only hearing voices, Doctor Hu perceived the difference between the two, shaking his head. Young doctors like Shen Xifei evidently, like most doctors, require countless clinical hit-and-trials to understand the daily preparations needed to practice dicine. As for Student Xie, she was clearly a super outlier, having sohow early on learned to behave like a veteran doctor.
Clamp the umbilical cord.
This completely severed the connection between the fetus and the mother. For a normal baby, in this situation, its lungs would open, and it would breathe on its own, letting out its first cry to signify the arrival of new life. For a healthy baby, this step is a natural first step in life, an easily attainable goal, requiring no doctor assistance.
Premature babies might not respond the sa way.
After the umbilical cord was severed, the baby that had smoothly exited the mother’s body let out no cry.
The abnormal phenonon sent a chilling wave through all the dical staff’s hearts, knowing there was an issue with the baby.
Actually, it’s not surprising.
