My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 959 - 380: Level 5 Encirclement Surgery and Urethral

"You know about this! It seems you’ve been paying quite a bit of attention to !"

Qiao Yu revealed a happy smile.

"When I first joined the surgery departnt for training, you helped by talking to the departnt heads, and several directors gave you face and took special care of . Later on, I felt that the skills I had learned were far from enough, and I was worried that I might beco rusty as a surgical nurse if I didn’t practice for a long ti and you would find fault with . So I simply pleaded with the directors of Cardiothoracic Surgery and Neurosurgery to let work extra hours there for free after finishing my shifts to learn more in the operating room."

Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

Only Qiao Yu knows how much effort she put in behind the scenes to beco Zhou Can’s surgical nurse.

Her perseverance and efforts made Zhou Can think highly of her and value her even more.

"Qiao Yu, thank you for putting in so much effort to be my capable assistant in surgery. The first patient for surgery is expected to co in soon; I’m looking forward to your performance."

Zhou Can gave high praise to her efforts.

"Alright!"

After she spoke, perhaps finding the conversation too serious, she covered her mouth and let out a chuckle.

Three years later, Qiao Yu had beco noticeably more beautiful, her temperant more outstanding, and her words and actions seed more professional. Her gaze was still as clear as water, just like three years ago.

During these three years, the tis they t could be counted on fingers.

But they often chatted on WeChat, sotis talking on the phone. It was usually Qiao Yu who would call him.

"Xiao Zhou, get ready; you’re going to host a urethral dilatation surgery soon!"

Dr. Xu ca in after changing into surgical attire.

"I’m fine; it’s just that this surgery requires a dical assistant." Zhou Can felt quite surprised, as Dr. Xu was known for being strict and cautious.

To be given a urethral dilatation surgery right off the bat was quite uncharacteristic of Xu Yidao!

"I’ll be the dical assistant! This is a high-difficulty surgery among Level 2 operations and your first battle back in the Ergency Departnt after three years of training, so don’t ss it up. Director Lou and others are watching!"

True to his na, Xu Yidao was Xu Yidao, and with him personally overseeing Zhou Can, there’s naturally no worry about any accident.

Though Zhou Can had made quite a na for himself in various departnts, Director Lou and others in the Ergency Departnt hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, so there was still a bit of concern.

Yesterday, Zhou Can proposed quite a few conditions, and Director Lou agreed to them one by one.

If Zhou Can couldn’t show his corresponding strength today, even if Director Lou said nothing, Zhou Can himself would feel embarrassed.

"Teacher, Level 2 surgeries requiring general anesthesia are usually elective; there’s surely a period needed for pre-surgical consultations, anesthesia assessnts, and preparations. This patient shouldn’t have just been admitted."

Zhou Can cautiously asked.

Early in the morning, even if the patient was admitted last night, it shouldn’t be possible to arrange surgery so quickly.

"You know and still ask? Taken in yesterday, specially left for you to handle."

Dr. Xu gave him a glance.

Then handed the patient’s file to Zhou Can.

The patient was quickly brought in.

This was a male patient in his twenties who had developed urethral stricture due to a trauma, and his current symptoms included extre difficulty in urinating, leading to so complications. Although it’s just a small problem with urination, it caused this patient to live in extre misery.

"Doctor, please devote extra effort to help . Since I was injured, my girlfriend keeps threatening to leave , and every ti I urinate, it’s like enduring torture. I’m living in agony."

The patient’s main appeal was directed at Dr. Xu.

"We will definitely do our utmost to treat you; now please lie down on the operating table."

Dr. Xu guided the patient to lie down on the operating table as the anesthesiologist began to administer general anesthesia.

For urethral dilatation surgeries, adults can typically opt for local anesthesia as well.

Doctors usually perform a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s condition to choose the optimal anesthesia thod. General anesthesia carries greater risks, with the advantage of being able to monitor the patient’s vital signs throughout the operation. When under general anesthesia, the doctor doesn’t need to worry about the patient not cooperating or moving unpredictably.

There is actually only one downside— it increases the cost of surgery.

Nowadays, anesthesia technology is extrely advanced. Though anesthesia accidents still occur every year, even resulting in patient deaths.

The risk of general anesthesia remains extrely low.

Additionally, the notion that local anesthesia is safer and general anesthesia is more dangerous is simply nonsense. Even incidents of death occurring from re brachial plexus anesthesia have been reported in major hospitals.

And it’s happened more than once.

No particular anesthesia thod is universally safer. Every surgical procedure carries its own risks.

As long as there is risk, unpredictability exists.

Zhou Can took advantage of the patient’s anesthesia period to further review the patient’s files and examination reports.

Once anesthesia was successfully administered, the anesthesiologist instructed Qiao Yu, "Nurse, insert a catheter for him! Drain the urine first."

"Alright!"

Qiao Yu agreed without hesitation.

Nurses often encounter almost all the dirty and hard tasks— cleaning patients’ feces and urine, treating ulcerated and infected skin, wounds, changing dressings, inserting catheters.

This requires nurses to possess strong psychological resilience.

"Let handle it!"

Zhou Can took the special, fine catheter to spare Qiao Yu so embarrassnt.

Whenever he is present, he tries to give so consideration to nurses and female doctors.

Qiao Yu is his confidante, so he naturally cares for her even more.
