Even though Liu Banxia had diagnosed the young man upstairs with symptoms caused by a chigger mite bite, it didn't an they could just leave him unattended.
There could be various reasons for how he contracted the illness, but those were his personal matters. Once at the hospital, the doctors' responsibility was to treat him.
Nothing else mattered. Successfully treating the illness was the most important thing.
So, in the afternoon, Miao Rui also needed to check on the young man. He had to monitor his breathing and body temperature. After the dication reached its peak concentration, there would be noticeable improvent.
Of course, Miao Rui also brought back so gossip. The young man's girlfriend wasn't happy, but she still hadn't left him to fend for himself.
As for Qing Kewa, she was thrilled because she was able to go out that evening.
It was genuine happiness; otherwise, she would feel idle all day, just shadowing during patient consultations with no other tasks.
The entire Ergency Center's Departnt of General Surgery gave her a free pass. She could enter any operating room and observe any surgery she wanted.
This was partly because she was a foreign exchange student and partly because she was friendly and got along well with everyone.
In the afternoon, she tagged along with Liu Banxia, even going to the pediatrics departnt to help out. Although she was mostly just an observer there, the children certainly wouldn't give her any special treatnt.
"Director Fang, how has the shooting been going these past few days?"
After leaving the pediatrics departnt, they happened to run into Director Fang from the program team.
"Shooting has been great. We film just the way we want to," Director Fang said with a smile.
"We've completely abandoned our original planned content. Now we just film whatever we see. We want this program to be completely different from before and show the most realistic portrayal of a hospital."
"Don't forget to promote us well and say so good things about us," Liu Banxia said.
"In that case, wouldn't it be great if we could feature more surgeries and disease diagnoses? However, that's precisely what many other shows focus on," Director Fang said.
"I did hear so people saying that you had diagnosed another difficult case. Why didn't you think of us?"
"Not at all. The seemingly difficult cases are actually quite simple. The two most important indicators were right in front of us, but we just weren't observant enough and focused only on one," Liu Banxia said with a wry smile.
"If you're interested, you can talk about it on the program. Sumr is approaching, so people should be wary of insect bites. If you feel unwell after being bitten by any small insect, you should seek dical attention imdiately."
"Often, it's these small issues that can lead to big problems. By the way, are you interested? If so, I can give you a tour of the 'living hell'," Liu Banxia added.
"What place? Can it be fild?" Director Fang was imdiately interested.
"You can't film there; there are privacy concerns. I'll just take you for a walk-through, and you'll understand. And I suspect so people in your crew might have this problem too," Liu Banxia said with a cheerful smile.
The place Liu Banxia planned to take Director Fang to was, of course, the proctology departnt. He wasn't worried about leaving, as Wei Yuan and the others were keeping an eye on things at the ergency center.
Ah... I should've thought more about it earlier. Seeing the proctology departnt sign in the corridor, Director Fang sighed.
"What's wrong? Have you experienced it before?" Liu Banxia asked curiously.
Director Fang nodded. "I had a hemorrhoidectomy once. It hurt so badly. What made you bring here?"
"Nothing specific, just wanted to show you sothing interesting," Liu Banxia said.
"Perfect, Director Jiang is also here. Director Jiang, let introduce you. This is Director Fang from the program team. He's here to do a feature on our hospital."
"Director Fang, welco," Jiang Tao said warmly.
"After Dr. Liu ntioned a tour of 'living hell,' I realized this place could indeed compare. The year before last, I had a very painful experience here. Ever since, I've been very cautious," Director Fang said.
"Our departnt is often overlooked. Even though the conditions are usually minor, treating them can be agonizing. But if ignored, they can beco very dangerous when they fully manifest," Jiang Tao said.
"Because of this, Banxia suggested that we combine developnt and educational training in our proctology departnt with increased publicity and awareness about proctological diseases."
"Co, let's sit and talk. Guan Wei, bring out my good tea. We have an honored guest today; we must offer proper hospitality."
"Director Jiang, that's not fair! When I visit, I only get water from the dispenser, but when Director Fang cos, you bring out the good tea," Liu Banxia complained.
"If you were willing to join our proctology departnt, forget tea! I'd give you anything I have," Jiang Tao said. "Director Fang, you probably don't know this, but this young man has a unique talent."
"His dressing change technique is quite special; it significantly reduces the patient's pain. So, we've discussed putting more effort into developing this."
"See those comndation banners on our wall? The first and second rows are all for him. Back then, he wasn't even chief resident yet; he was just here helping out."
Liu Banxia had really co through for them, so he, Jiang Tao, had to do his part. This was the ti to lay on the praise. And it was all true, not a shred of exaggeration.
Director Fang looked carefully. Indeed, several of the banners hanging there bore Liu Banxia's na.
"I'm quite curious. I've had my dressings changed too, and it hurt a lot back then. Just what level of skill can Dr. Liu achieve?" Director Fang asked after withdrawing his gaze.
"Director Fang, don't listen to Director Jiang; he's just flattering ," Liu Banxia said.
"Changing dressings is painful for anyone. I just try to be a bit quicker and minimize repeated friction, that's all. If I could really make it painless, wouldn't that make a deity?"
"Director, Director Fang, the tea is ready." At this mont, Guan Wei brought the tea over.
"Guan Wei, go get a bottle of povidone-iodine cotton balls and a pair of tweezers. Let Director Fang experience Banxia's technique," Jiang Tao said.
"Ugh... you're really going to make perform," Liu Banxia said with a sigh of resignation.
"If Director Jiang recomnds it so highly, there must be sothing to it," Director Fang said.
"I'm quite curious, Director Jiang. Why did you want Dr. Liu to co to the proctology departnt? From what you're saying, it seems you've invited him before?"
Jiang Tao nodded. "Back then, he was a resident doing his standardized training, not yet a formal employee. After I discovered his talent, I felt that if he joined us, our proctology departnt could definitely outperform those specialized proctology hospitals."
"Alright, the items are here. Experience it firsthand, and you'll understand how 'dominant' his technique is. We privately refer to it as 'dominant'."
"Even I can't match this technique. Once, both our Chief Directors tried changing a dressing to compare with him. Unfortunately, neither of them could best him."
"Director Jiang, why are you putting on such a high pedestal?" Liu Banxia said helplessly, then picked up the tweezers and clamped a povidone-iodine cotton ball.
"Director Fang, just hold out the back of your hand. And don't listen to Director Jiang hyping up like that. It's really no big deal; Director Jiang just likes to use this to impress people."
"Hmm... Is it over already? Did you just dab my hand a few tis?" Director Fang murmured, not paying attention to Liu Banxia's words but staring intently at the back of his own hand.
"Four dabs," Liu Banxia said with a smile and a nod.
"Director Fang, the key is to look at this povidone-iodine cotton ball," Jiang Tao said. "See the frayed edges? Those marks are from where he just wiped, adding a slight rotation."
"The benefit of this is that a single povidone-iodine cotton ball can be used to its maximum cleaning potential on the wound. Plus, he has an excellent touch; he can clean the wound thoroughly while ensuring he doesn't put excessive pressure on it."
"If you're interested, you can find an opportunity to watch him perform debrident on patients in the Ergency Center. On New Year's Day, when a major accident happened, he single-handedly managed most of the patients in the Ergency Center."
"I don't know much about dicine, so I can't really evaluate Dr. Liu's technique. But based on what I just felt, it's incredibly skillful," Director Fang admitted, genuinely impressed.
"The povidone-iodine streak on the back of my hand is so long, yet Dr. Liu only dabbed my hand four tis. I actually only felt two touches; just a brief cool sensation, and it was over."
"Exactly! Director Fang, imagine if he had agreed to join our proctology departnt back then. Our office would be overflowing with comndation banners," Jiang Tao said.
"I'm not just saying this because you're here; I tell everyone the sa thing. This is his unique skill. We've tried to learn it, and while we've improved, we're still far behind him."
Director Fang nodded in agreent.
It was precisely because he knew how painful changing dressings could be that he could understand Jiang Tao's words.
Actually, changing dressings also causes significant psychological stress. Liu Banxia's speed could greatly reduce a patient's psychological distress during the procedure.
"Dr. Liu, can we film you performing debrident in the treatnt room tomorrow?" Director Fang asked.
"Not tomorrow. I'm off tomorrow. I have to go ho and spend ti with my wife. I haven't seen her in nine days, and I miss her," Liu Banxia said.
"Ah... your work is indeed very demanding," Director Fang nodded.
However, his gaze still drifted to the back of his hand. The experience had truly left a profound impression on him.
