For these challenging cases, Zhou Can feels both fondness and frustration.
A case that can stump a director or deputy chief physician is certainly extremely difficult. He is only human; even though he has some talent and has received teachings from Director Hu Kan, encountering such difficult cases still requires tremendous effort from him to solve.
And sometimes, he simply can’t solve them.
In such situations, it’s necessary to gather the strength of the entire department and even invite experts from other departments for a joint consultation.
Breaking through these difficult cases is also very beneficial for Zhou Can.
It improves his personal diagnosis and treatment capabilities, increases his clinical experience, and can earn him significant Experience Points rewards.
It must be noted that not every challenging case that is solved earns large Experience Points rewards.
Some difficult cases are very tough for other doctors.
But for Zhou Can, they are relatively easy.
These cases may at most earn him 10 extra Experience Points, and sometimes there is no reward at all.
Around 7:20, a nurse came over to urge him.
"Dr. Zhou, they’re asking for you in the operating room. The anesthesia is ready, and the surgery is about to begin."
"Okay, I’ll be there right away!"
Having no choice, Zhou Can hastened to the operating room.
He entered the operating room, changed clothes, and went into the surgery area. Director Xue Yan and other medical staff were ready.
The first surgery today was for the patient transferred from Xinxiang Hospital with an infected chest wound and sternum.
They need to remove the artificial material, perform debridement, and reconstruct the chest wall.
This is a major project.
There are several technical challenges involved.
If the chief surgeon’s skills are lacking, it might even require collaboration with Orthopedics.
"Zhou Can, we’re just waiting for you to take charge!"
Director Xue Yan said with a smile.
It’s apparent she’s quickly moving past the shadow of her divorce. I truly hope she can find a good panion in the rest of her life.
Sometimes, fate in this world can be quite unfair.
Good women meet bad guys, while good men meet unworthy women, or gold diggers.
Only when the right person is met at the right time can they walk together for life and both find true happiness.
In recent years, the divorce rate has been increasing, which may not be entirely bad.
It can make both men and women cherish their hard-won marriages even more. Speaking of high divorce rates, the United States is probably the highest.
People there dare to divorce as soon as they feel they can’t go on.
They might even divorce over trivial disagreements like how a toothbrush is placed.
pared to these Western developed countries, the situation in our country is much better.
"I’m ready to take charge; Sister Yan and all the directors just need to back me up." Zhou Can nodded with a smile. Then his gaze fell on the anesthesiologist. "Oh, Mr. Feng is here too!"
"Director Xue was worried about potential issues, so she insisted I e to oversee things."
Director Feng wasn’t alone; he brought two apprentices along.
He’s taken on more than just Zhou Can as his apprentice. pared to these full-time anesthesiologists, Zhou Can is merely an amateur.
"Let’s start the surgery quickly and aim to finish early. I know your surgical speed is now on par with Xu Yidao back in the day."
"Yes, sir!"
Zhou Can nodded with a smile.
After scrubbing his hands, he put on sterile gloves and stood at the position of the chief surgeon. Zhou Can quickly cut open the stitching line from Xinxiang Hospital.
His current suturing skill level is at a junior director level, and he can immediately spot some shortings in the stitching when Xinxiang Hospital’s doctors closed the chest. Of course, he won’t say anything.
The patient’s sternal incision is infected with osteomyelitis, which persists stubbornly. The best solution is surgical removal and chest wall reconstruction.
