Capítulo 874: Chapter 348: The Nurse Lowered Her Head—She’s Really Just a Resident Trainee
Coronary artery angiography, in a big hospital like Tuya, seems like a very common procedure, but in the county’s People’s Hospital, it is considered quite a challenging operation.
Especially in such an ergency situation, the ti allotted for the doctors to perform the operation is extrely short.
Whether it’s anesthesia or cardiac catheter puncture, there’s a certain level of technical difficulty involved.
To be blunt, even routine procedures like lumbar puncture often experience technical immaturity and lack of precision in most county people’s hospitals, with puncture failure being quite common.
The technological barriers between county hospitals and provincial tertiary hospitals are invisible and intangible, yet they truly exist.
It’s not that provincial tertiary hospitals have locked down the technology without sharing—it’s nothing like that.
Many core dical techniques are certainly not passed on externally.
After all, everyone needs to make a living, and if the most core technologies are spread, patients can complete treatnt directly in the local county, and how can big hospitals survive?
Besides that, many high-difficulty surgeries and treatnts require a complete and strong team.
Anesthetists, instrunt nurses, assisting scrub nurses, circulating nurses, as well as post-operative care nutrition nurses, rehabilitation nurses, care nurses, and surgical assistants first, second, even third and fourth. So surgeries require two main surgeons to operate simultaneously.
County people’s hospitals find it difficult to assemble these top-tier talents.
Even if a county-level hospital occasionally produces an outstandingly talented doctor or nurse, due to the poor environnt, they either transfer away or ultimately beco just another mber of the ordinary crowd.
Even having an excellent team, the hardware and software facilities are similarly a hurdle.
Costs like several tens of millions for dical equipnt and examination equipnt, even provincial tertiary hospitals must deliberate cautiously, holding multiple discussions to decide. For county hospitals with limited scale and intake volu, it goes without saying.
Hospital leaders must consider the problem of whether they can recoup the cost.
Aside from the above-ntioned strong team and inadequate facilities, the biochemical laboratory often fails to et requirents as well. They can only conduct routine biochemical checks—more advanced ones must be sent to big hospitals.
Director Wang looked at the critically ill patient and sighed, appearing helpless, but he understood.
“Both the imaging equipnt and interventional therapy equipnt are available, right?”
Zhou Can asked.
“Of course! We are, after all, a tertiary hospital!” Director Wang straightened his back, refusing to compromise the hospital’s prestige.
“Do you have nurses who can skillfully assist?”
Zhou Can nodded and asked again.
“I can assist!”
A woman around forty years old raised her hand.
“This is Liu Bin, the nurse chief of our hospital’s cardiothoracic surgery. She had advanced study at Tuya Hospital and is excellent in various assisting operations,” Director Wang introduced the female nurse’s capability and strength.
He was sowhat expectant, thinking this young doctor from Tuya might take on the task of rescuing this patient.
Given the hospital’s technical level, it’s already difficult to save this patient’s life.
We can only hope this young doctor from Tuya might bring a miracle.
Zhou Can’s easy diagnosis of the patient’s condition made Director Wang see him in a new light, gaining more trust.
“Greetings, Nurse Chief Liu!”
Zhou Can nodded to her.
Upon hearing that this female nurse chief had studied at Tuya, Zhou Can felt quite amiable.
It felt a bit like eting a fellow countryman abroad.
“It’s a pleasure to et Dr. Zhou! It’s not easy to beco a doctor at Tuya Hospital! Dr. Zhou is young and promising, truly comndable!” She smiled and extended her hand toward Zhou Can.
Zhou Can shook her hand politely.
“You’re too kind! I’m just an ordinary doctor at Tuya,” Zhou Can humbly replied, then looked at Director Wang. “If Director Wang and Nurse Chief Liu trust , I can try the angiography and interventional thrombectomy, stent insertion.”
Interventional surgeries, endoscopic surgeries, are Zhou Can’s specialties.
Puncture is even less of a concern.
His injection skills surpass those of chief nurses with decades of experience.
“It’s wonderful that Dr. Zhou is willing to assist in rescuing the patient’s life. But as you know, the current dical environnt is not favorable. May I ask, Dr. Zhou, do you have more than thirty percent confidence?”
Generally speaking, whether it’s surgery or other treatnts, doctors classify them into several levels.
If they inform the family that the confidence level for treating this disease doesn’t exceed ten percent, it’s nearly a death sentence. If the confidence level exceeds thirty percent, it’s worth a try. If doctors say the confidence is fifty-fifty, congratulations, the success rate is at least 90% or more.
In the last situation, doctors tell the family that they’ve conducted many successful surgeries like this one, showing great confidence. This generally equates to a 99.9% success rate.
If the surgery sadly fails, it can only be attributed to fate.
“Thirty percent confidence should be no problem.”
Zhou Can said mildly.
“Please, Dr. Zhou, then! Have the family talked to and sign the consent, while we prepare to take the patient to the interventional room for further rescue.”
Director Wang didn’t hesitate. Hearing Zhou Can state he had over thirty percent confidence made him feel it’s worth a try.
But Dr. Luo Jian pulled Director Wang aside and whispered, “This Dr. Zhou is just a resident trainee, isn’t it too risky to let him operate?”
