"Tsk tsk, Director Liu, when will you do the first surgery? We'd like to witness it too."
Seeing Liu Banxia walk back, Wei Yuan asked with a smile.
"Haha, we still need to wait a bit. NOSES surgery has high demands on patients; finding a suitable patient is not easy, and those willing to spend more money filter out another batch." Liu Banxia said.
"Don't worry, let's keep working hard together," said Wei Yuan.
"Small incision appendectomy is even more expensive than a normal incision one, yet many people still choose it. It's just a matter of changing mindsets."
"But recently, you've been doing fewer small incision surgeries, right? It's been over half a month since the last one, hasn't it? You can't always focus solely on major surgeries."
"It's not that I'm not trying; it's just that we've had fewer appendicitis patients in our ergency center recently. So cases of chronic appendicitis opted for conservative treatnt." Liu Banxia said with a bitter smile.
"Moreover, Xu Yino and the others can perform the small incision surgery now, though a bit slower. As long as it's not severe, I basically don't need to worry."
"Showing off, this is just showing off, Brother Wei, we can't let him get away with this," Wang Chao said solemnly.
"What can we do if we don't indulge him? Those six are truly excellent in this area. Another year of training and there'll be no problem at all," Wei Yuan said helplessly.
It's an undeniable fact; they don't have as much ti to research small incision appendectomy, the six young ones have been learning from Liu Banxia since they got admitted.
Moreover, each of them was personally assessed by Liu Banxia for their graduation on this surgery. They are indeed impeccable on this surgery.
It's just that Liu Banxia's skills are slightly better and faster.
"Let's not joke around; you really need to work hard. Recently, I've looked at so materials on this, and many hospitals are also studying NOSES surgery, even innovating on the original basis," Wei Yuan continued.
"Though small incision appendectomy is fine, there are alternative procedures. But NOSES is different; it seems to be quite favored for malignant tumor radical surgery."
"Especially after reducing the abdominal incision, the patient outcos are very good. Although the operating space is sowhat limited, it seems effective in rectal cancer sphincter preservation?"
Liu Banxia nodded, "NOSES indeed has these advantages, and many papers are based on these two points. But I think we shouldn't over-praise it."
"NOSES has been around for a long ti, but it's only in the past two years that people have gradually picked it up. But this surgery, as you said earlier, since the operating space is limited, the actual difficulty coefficient is very high."
"The cost of operations and teaching is also high, making it even harder to have this kind of surgery widely practiced in hospitals."
"Actually, I'm still learning and figuring out how to let those six understand, grasp, and independently perform such a surgery."
"There still lies a long road ahead, because I believe if only one or two doctors can perform this surgery, it might delay the patient's condition."
"Since there are selection criteria for surgical patients, so patients might choose to wait or lose weight to et the criteria for NOSES surgery."
"We doctors all know that once a condition is discovered, it needs to be addressed as quickly as possible. But not all patients may take it seriously, and may think we're urging them to stay so they don't go elsewhere."
"Let's proceed; if we have suitable cases, we guide accordingly. Perform more procedures, and we'll accumulate more data. At the mont, the data in this area is really limited."
"After all, this is considered 'new technology' right now, and the overall data accumulation is pitifully low. We should strive to enrich the database and study it together."
"As for , I don't have the energy for that right now." Wei Yuan shook his head.
"My current goal is to thoroughly master the surgeries, then think about sothing else. Otherwise, I'd have to keep learning from you and the director. It's not that I find it embarrassing; it just wastes too much ti."
"When the director performs surgery, just join in; there's no need to hold back," Liu Banxia said.
"The six of them have plenty of opportunities; it doesn't matter when they join. And often, they're just hanging around , there's a whole bunch of them once they're on stage."
"Haha, observing your surgery works too, it's all the sa," Wei Yuan said with a smile.
"In theory, it doesn't matter how it's done. But when it cos to doing it yourself, it takes much more ti. That's the key focus; the longer it takes, the more risk it poses to patients."
"Anyway, I don't care anymore; you ntioned it once before, you just organize it yourself," Liu Banxia said.
"Don't think about creating more opportunities for them and then stepping back. I might not be as good as you in other areas, but I am slightly ahead in liver surgery now."
Liu Banxia felt it was better to be upfront, so that Wei Yuan wouldn't have too many concerns. Really, there's no need. The atmosphere in the ergency center nowadays is so good—not sure how long it will last, but it's really great now.
Everyone genuinely cares, but there's not much I can give back in return. Besides handling so surgical allocations, the rest is teaching so surgical skills.
To outsiders, I might seem truly gifted, but it's all honed through real practice.
Just as Wei Yuan said, theoretically, once at the attending surgeon level, there's generally no issue. The key is in practicing; with fewer opportunities, a surgeon might choose to be overly cautious in real surgeries, prolonging the operation ti significantly.
Though he doesn't agree with the idea that shorter surgery ti is everything, it is a consensus that shorter surgeries lead to better patient outcos.
Especially with major surgeries, lasting five or six hours, seven or eight hours, or even longer. In such cases, many patients could beco very dangerous.
Wei Yuan patted Liu Banxia on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I have no burdens on my mind. As long as it's a surgery I'm interested in and work isn't busy, I can follow along to take a look."
"Sa here, but I also need to work hard. I absolutely can't let the six juniors surpass ," Wang Chao said, swinging his fist.
"Is it that necessary? No matter how hard they work, they don't have as much experience in surgery as you. You've just been a bit busy with work recently, unlike usual," Liu Banxia said.
"With such a rigorous ntor like you, who knows what kind of talents you might train?" Wang Chao said with a bitter face.
"I think the six juniors are just lacking in the accumulation of dical practice ti. But their growth is definitely at high-speed rail level. As for you, you're at rocket and space shuttle level."
Liu Banxia gave him a helpless look, thinking that sotis this guy seed even more mischievous than himself.
This was a rare break ti, with no ergency patients being brought in, so the surgical team was fairly "idle."
The regular ergency admissions were handled well by the juniors, too. Their performance was impeccable, a result of long-term hard work.
"Actually, I think my job as the head resident is pretty worry-free. Even though there are more patients now, there are also more helping hands," Qi Wentai joined in.
"Hehe, I'm the one who's truly worry-free," Liu Banxia said with a big smile.
"More help and fewer patients. Only in the last few months have the patient numbers slightly increased, but with Xu Yino and the team here with you, I don't worry much."
"They're not bad, but I'm just a bit troubled. Next, I need to choose who will beco the next head resident, and all six of them have perford very well."
"You can take your ti deciding. We wholeheartedly support you," Wang Chao said.
"But in the short term, I don't think the hospital will give us many positions for attending doctors, right? Proportionately speaking, our ergency center already has quite a number."
Liu Banxia nodded. "Although I haven't asked the director, our current preferential policies are about enough. So in the near future, we'll have to rely on ourselves."
"Unless we want to upgrade, then there might be more policy support if we et both hardware and software requirents. But I feel the Chief Director wants to slow down, take things step by step, get a solid foundation before making moves."
"Last year, our ergency center went through quite a bit—staff shortages, incomplete departnts, which were flaws back then."
"Now, even with new intern nurses coming on board, it still seems short-staffed because patient numbers are increasing, but there aren't many positions in the nursing team."
"Tsk tsk, if you can master the NOSES surgery, it'll bring another wave of patients to our ergency center," Wang Chao said.
"Keep it up, it's a heavy responsibility, and you must take it on. Everyone is quite looking forward to you. I bet your first surgery will be broadcast live throughout the hospital, just wait and see."
"Haha, there's no need to think too much; after all, we're still part of the Second Hospital," Wei Yuan laughed.
Liu Banxia looked a bit conflicted. Being expected should be sothing to be happy about, right? But now, it seems like they're all plotting against him.
Why expect so much from ? Why not keep it low-key? I only know a little about NOSES surgery now; my success rate in simulated training in the dream space is very low.
This new technique isn't easy to master; I'm worried too.
The three of them didn't care what he thought, they were really looking forward to it. Regardless, they felt if the Second Hospital wanted to attempt this, Liu Banxia is currently the only one capable.
It's similar to the small incision appendectomy—it might not be understood by those with ti, and those who can understand might not have the ti.
