Chapter 1555 - 631: Gradually Integrating into the Neurosurgery Team—What Happened?
Chapter 1555: Chapter 631: Gradually Integrating into the Neurosurgery Team—What Happened?
At least in the eyes of these medical staff, that god-like supreme authority has already been shaken.
It turns out that Director Wu is not an all-knowing ’medical god’.
"Director Wu, I’ve ordered some snacks for supper; care to have some before you head back?"
Zhou Can wouldn’t dare do something like burning bridges after crossing them.
Stealing Wu Baihe’s thunder already made others displeased, so how could it be appropriate not to show some gesture when calling Wu Baihe over to help at night?
It would be hard to invite him next time otherwise.
"You all eat. I’m getting old and worried about getting a heat stroke." Wu Baihe waved his hand.
Zhou Can quickly ran over to get two boxes of supper snacks.
He caught up with Wu Baihe, "Take them home for your family! I’m really thankful for your help today; I’ve learned so much, and the patient’s surgery was safely completed. If it weren’t for your advice and guidance, I might have been recklessly risking everything."
These words came from the heart.
Zhou Can was especially grateful for all the help Wu Baihe provided.
The leader may seem to eat ’armchair food,’ but his role is indispensable.
If it weren’t for Wu Baihe scolding him and advising him not to probe the brainstem area first, Zhou Can would have probably relied on his advanced skills and gone straight for it after a craniotomy.
This actually exposed his diagnosis experience in the neurosurgical field as not being very rich.
Before discovering the issue with the gray matter, he had always suspected bleeding in the patient’s brainstem.
"If you can genuinely take in those criticisms, that’s my biggest comfort. Your talent is indeed remarkable, but you must beware of being overly confident, which could ultimately lead to arrogance and ruin."
Seeing that he was eager to learn, Wu Baihe nodded in satisfaction.
Zhou Can stuffed the two boxes of snacks into his hands.
"When the nurse placed the supper order, everyone was accounted for. If you don’t take them, we’ll end up not finishing the food, and it would go to waste."
"That’s very thoughtful of you!"
Wu Baihe didn’t refuse anymore and accepted the bag.
"Remember to spend more time training in our neurosurgery department. Tuya Hospital doesn’t have a dedicated brain surgery department, so neurosurgery includes brain surgery. Your knowledge and surgical experience in this area still need improvement; you’ll need at least a year or two of intensive training just to barely qualify."
Look at that, when you accept help, you’re more inclined to be generous with your mentorship.
After taking the supper, Wu Baihe was evidently more attentive in nurturing Zhou Can.
"Alright, once I’m through this busy period, I’ll definitely come find you and the neurosurgery teachers to learn more. I’m currently tied up with my graduate studies and about to get married, so I’m really pressed for time."
Receiving such an invitation from Wu Baihe, especially a second one, is truly an honor.
It’s evident that the experts in Tuya Hospital’s various departments are very dedicated to nurturing successors.
Zhou Can has been studying under a mentor from Tuya Medical College’s Orthopedics Department for nearly two years without realizing it.
He’s about to graduate.
After two years of systematic study, though he’s been squeezing in study time for classes and nighttime reading, the gains have been significant.
His medical knowledge in orthopedics, both in theory and clinical practice, has seen tremendous improvement.
His previous orthopedic diagnosis and treatment level was at most equivalent to a typical resident doctor.
Now, he’s at least equivalent to a senior attending physician.
As for further improvement, he certainly needs to work in the clinical orthopedic department.
No matter how good the theoretical knowledge is, it’s ultimately just a foundation.
Improving treatment skills requires combining theory with practice to eventually transform into clinical practice knowledge and skills.
After seeing Wu Baihe off, Zhou Can was again surrounded by Wu Baihe’s team for guidance.
Everyone sat in the consultation room, eating supper together.
Zhou Can shared various growth experiences and techniques with them.
For instance, how was he able to notice the issue with the artery supplying blood to parts of the gray matter? How was such keen judgment developed?
And how did Zhou Can develop such outstanding surgical skills?
Because to master even the tiniest suturing skills to Zhou Can’s current level would take decades.
Only those veteran surgical experts with white hair, sporting white beards, could suture so well.
Zhou Can was eager to share the various insights and techniques for improving surgical skills without holding back.
Offering supper and selflessly sharing insights into enhancing surgical skills greatly won over this group of talented neurosurgeons. They not only actively asked for Zhou Can’s WeChat to add him but also shared some neurosurgical diagnostic skills and knowledge in return.
Two male doctors even stated on the spot that if Zhou Can had any difficult neurosurgical cases in the future, he could send them over for joint consultation anytime.
Tonight is destined to be a night of harvest.
It also marks the beginning of Zhou Can truly integrating into Wu Baihe’s team.
Being able to mesh well with these outstanding medical staff, Zhou Can felt particularly joyful.
...
The next morning, after his rounds, Zhou Can specifically went to the emergency ICU ward.
Cheng Xiaolu’s mother was admitted to the hospital with such a poor condition, almost at the brink of death, she went directly into the ICU.
Post-operative, after the anesthesia wore off, even though she’s woken up from her coma, for her safety, she remained in the ICU to receive the best care.
Care in normal wards can generally be divided into two types.
One is the most ordinary, where doctors and nurses will only check on the patient’s condition during rounds and dressing changes. The other belongs to special care, as the patient’s condition could deteriorate at any time, leading to potential issues. Or, if the patient has certain background relations, is a VIP, medical staff might have to appear more attentive, even if just to put on a show.
