"Xu Hongtao, it seems your mood is quite good," Liu Banxia said with a smile as he entered the ward.
"Dr. Liu, please sit down. If not for you, this arm of mine would have been gone," Xu Hongtao quickly replied.
"Although it has been temporarily reattached for now, you should be ntally prepared. This will certainly have so impact on your arm’s mobility after the re-implantation surgery," Liu Banxia stated.
Xu Hongtao nodded. "Doctor Wang told the sa thing yesterday. Even with so functional impairnt, it’s better than not having an arm at all. Don’t you want to have a look at it?"
Liu Banxia shook his head with a laugh. "What is there to see? Sothing novel? But your mood has stayed surprisingly good. Weren’t you a bit emotional at the beginning yesterday?"
Xu Hongtao laughed. "At first, I was terrified. An arm growing on my stomach? I thought I’d beco a monster! Who would dare date after hearing about this?"
"Then I thought it through. After all, it’s my own arm; I can’t just ignore it. This is to save my arm, so a little weirdness is a small price to pay."
"Who knows, maybe this will make famous, and who knows what will happen then. Teacher Liu, um... can I live-stream this arm of mine?"
"That’s up to you. We have no right to interfere," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.
"I also saw the people outside just now. I’ll give you half an hour. Any longer wouldn’t be good, as it might disturb the other patients’ rest in other wards."
"Thank you, Dr. Liu, thank you," Xu Hongtao quickly replied.
"Xu Yino, let those people in. Give them half an hour. If they go over the ti limit, they’ll be blacklisted by the Ergency Center," Liu Banxia said.
Xu Yino smiled and nodded, then went outside to find those people.
"Dr. Liu, could you please stay?" Xu Hongtao called out as he saw Liu Banxia about to leave.
"What’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?" Liu Banxia asked.
"No, it’s just... can you help increase my popularity?" Xu Hongtao asked bashfully.
Liu Banxia was taken aback for a mont, then smiled and nodded.
It didn’t matter; as long as his mood was good. He wouldn’t want him to develop psychological problems in the future, as that would make this surgery a failure.
Liu Banxia had no experience participating in live broadcasts, but these young guys were certainly making it lively.
"Dr. Liu, soone’s asking if this kind of surgery will affect Xu Hongtao’s future life," the young man in charge of the stream asked.
"From a dical perspective, it will only have beneficial effects on his life," Liu Banxia replied.
"After all, losing an arm would bring many inconveniences to his future life. We are currently using a temporary asure. In three or four days, once the infection at the site of his severed arm is healed, we will perform the re-implantation surgery."
"Dr. Liu, soone else is asking, will you be the one performing the surgery then?" the young strear asked again.
"I can’t do that. It will be handled by an orthopedic surgeon from our hospital. I’m just a general surgeon; the organs inside your stomachs are my departnt," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.
"Speaking of which, let add a couple more things. The Spring Festival is approaching, so drink less and watch your diet. Try not to do things that land you in the hospital. We’ve also worked hard all year; let us have a proper rest."
"In the past couple of days, the number of intoxicated patients we’ve admitted at night has started to rise again. A little drink can be enjoyable, but excessive drinking is harmful. Everyone needs to take care of their bodies."
"You guys should wrap it up soon. He just had surgery last night and needs to rest well to recover. And you all have serious dark circles under your eyes; you should get so rest too."
After speaking, Liu Banxia did not linger and left with Xu Yino.
"Teacher Liu, why are you in such a good mood today?" Xu Yino asked curiously.
Liu Banxia rolled his eyes. "I’m in a good mood every day. I haven’t asked you yet, what are your thoughts? When the ti cos, will you stay, or will you run away?"
"Teacher Liu, I still haven’t decided," Xu Yino said, her face troubled.
"If I stay, I’ll beco a crazy woman. But if I go sowhere else, I’ll be a bit reluctant to leave here. It’s so worrying, so very worrying."
"It’s fine. Even if you beco a ’crazy woman,’ it’ll only be for two or three years. Once you beco an attending physician, you won’t be so frantic," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.
"You’re just trying to trick . My skin has gotten so much worse these past few months; I often fall asleep with a face mask on," Xu Yino said.
"How about I give you a task? Help find out which of them want to stay. I can prepare sothing special for them," Liu Banxia suggested.
"Teacher Liu, are you planning to give them special training?" Xu Yino asked cautiously.
Liu Banxia nodded. "Yes, a bit of focused training. My goal for the next year and a half is to have you all master the surgeries I’m proficient in."
"Even though you seem to find it very tiring here and are afraid of becoming a ’crazy woman,’ I think deep down, you want to stay."
"After all, our Ergency Center offers many advantages. And with an unconventional supervising doctor like , you get to have hands-on surgical experience."
"I’m not bragging, but working here for a year and a half, you’ll definitely gain much more than working in an ordinary hospital for over three years."
Xu Yino nodded; she had to admit this. In just over six months, the gap between them and their classmates had beco very noticeable.
For surgeons, the most fundantal skills are surgical procedures. Liu Banxia pushed them relentlessly forward. They had no ti to think about anything else, and as a result, they made significant progress.
Back on the first floor, Liu Banxia clapped his hands. "Alright, my dear interns, put down what you’re doing and gather ’round for a quick eting. Dr. Shi will take over seeing patients for now."
Hearing his words, the interns’ hearts skipped a beat. Who knows what tornt this ’Demon King’ has planned for us next?
They turned their hopeful eyes to Xu Yino, hoping that she could reveal so information.
Xu Yino was also completely baffled. How would I know what the ’Demon King’ cooked up after his chat upstairs? There wasn’t any warning at all!
"Actually, what I’m about to tell you is sothing I’ve ntioned before, but I’ll go over it again today," Liu Banxia said.
"Next up is a prize-winning quiz. I just checked on two patients. One is the child with the abdominal vascular malformation; they plan to go ho first and return after the Spring Festival for surgery."
"The other is Xu Hongtao from last night. I think he’s in very good spirits. He even got so live-strears to give him so publicity online just now."
"Alright, I’ve given you the known facts. Get your brains working and guess what I’m going to talk about next. There’s a prize if you guess correctly—a real prize."
Even Xu Yino racked her brain upon hearing this. After all, she had just been on the rounds with him. Others could only guess blindly, but she had so clues.
After so reflection, she thought it might be related to respecting patients’ choices. After all, the child wanted to be discharged first, and he didn’t directly refuse him.
But after more thought, that didn’t seem quite right. It didn’t connect to the second patient. While Xu Hongtao also made a choice, it wasn’t as if he had many options.
What about being considerate of the patients? That seed plausible.
But that’s sothing they emphasize every day, so it probably wasn’t that either.
"Ah, I know!" Xu Yino exclaid.
"Then say it," Liu Banxia asked with a smile.
"Should we take into account the patient’s psychological factors?" Xu Yino eagerly asked.
Liu Banxia nodded. "Exactly, the patient’s psychology. When we provide services to patients, we sotis overlook this aspect."
"But this psychological factor was particularly significant for yesterday’s patient; it could even determine whether the limb re-implantation surgery is ultimately successful."
"This isn’t just an extra consideration for limb re-implantation; we encounter it in many cases. Especially when patients might lose certain organs after treatnt, or when their appearance or daily convenience is affected."
"In general surgery, the most common example is probably rectal cancer, right? We had a patient who developed abdominal adhesions because he wanted to preserve his anus. The surgery itself was successful, but the patient eventually passed away."
"That young man with the scalds who was discharged yesterday and could go ho to rest—he was constantly worried about whether the burns would cause disfigurent. Psychological intervention is also very important for patients with scalds and burns."
"Although a patient’s mood doesn’t have a direct correlation with their prognosis, it ultimately does have so influence. So, in our future consultations, we must pay more attention to psychological intervention for patients."
"We do this every day when we explain their condition to patients and discuss the necessity of surgery; these aspects are always involved. I’m bringing it up specifically today because I want everyone to give it more importance."
The six interns nodded. Now that he put it that way, it really made sense. Yesterday’s patient did seem to agonize for nearly twenty minutes before finally agreeing to the surgery.
And then there was the patient who delayed treatnt to preserve his anus. If they had communicated better back then, even if his life beca a bit inconvenient later, at least his life could have been saved.
"Teacher Liu, what’s my reward?" Xu Yino asked curiously.
"Treat at lunch; a chicken leg will do," Liu Banxia said casually.
"What? I’m buying?" Xu Yino asked incredulously.
The other five interns were tickled pink. Demon King Liu is being mischievous again!
Liu Banxia nodded. "This is your reward. Happy? Pleased? Thrilled to bits?"
Xu Yino rolled her eyes. How can he be such a bully?
Wei Yuan, who was watching from the side, shook his head helplessly. Liu Banxia’s teaching thods were certainly unconventional. However, perhaps because of this, these interns, despite having their own supervising doctors, were very receptive to his guidance.
Moreover, the problem Liu Banxia brought up was indeed a real one, which should receive more attention, as this could improve the quality of dical services.
