My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Chapter 1005: Chapter 397: Every Kind of Patient, Emergency Surgery’s Absolute Mainstay (Part 2)

Director Feng is a ’medical fanatic’ when it comes to anesthesiology.

In this world, the most terrifying thing is when a person dedicates their entire life to one task. Ten years, decades of accumulation, that can be incredibly powerful, allowing them to achieve great accomplishments in their field of study.

Initially, Zhou Can wasn’t very passionate about anesthesiology; he simply thought that mastering more skills couldn’t hurt, so he followed Director Feng to learn a bit.

Later, as he learned more, especially after engaging deeply with Hu Kan in cardiothoracic surgery knowledge and diagnostic knowledge, he gradually discovered the benefits of anesthesiology.

First of all, anesthesiology has a thorough understanding and research of the body’s three major circulations, as well as the internal and external circulations. Additionally, it has an in-depth study and practical experience across the body’s nine major systems, particularly the nervous, respiratory, circulatory, and musculoskeletal systems.

It can be said that Internal Medicine practitioners are the group who best understand human physiology and pharmacology.

But anesthesiologists are the group who best understand life.

When it comes to supporting and sustaining life, if anesthesiologists claim second place, no one dares to claim first.

After learning anesthesia knowledge, Zhou Can could significantly feel the enormous benefits in clinical practice. Even his surgical thinking changed because of anesthesiology.

He also discovered that all medical disciplines have some level of interconnectedness.

Medicine is somewhat like a circle; missing any segment makes the circle incomplete.

Mastering anesthesiology can greatly enhance the depth and continuity of overall medical understanding.

For the average person, mastering one medical field in a lifetime is quite an achievement.

Because Zhou Can has the Experience Points system, he holds a great advantage in this regard. What takes others ten years to achieve, he might accomplish in two or three years, or even less, by accumulating experience, turning quantitative change into qualitative change.

Having this enormous advantage also means he has the time and energy to learn more medical fields.

It’s impossible to research all medical fields thoroughly.

But reaching a certain height in multiple medical fields shouldn’t be too difficult for him.

At least now he has already achieved a fairly high level in several fields like general surgery, critical care medicine, cardiothoracic surgery, nephrology, and digestive internal medicine.

Currently, he leads the surgical team in the Emergency Department, performing surgeries frantically, gaining exposure to almost all types of surgeries.

I believe as long as he keeps accumulating, he will constantly ascend to new heights in more medical fields.

Dongfang Luoxue remains as cold as ever, like a legendary ice beauty.

At over forty years old, her age is evident, and at most she retains a touch of lingering charm.

"Need help?"

Zhou Can smiled and greeted her.

"Sure!"

She replied with just one word, while trying hard to squeeze out a faint smile to respond to Zhou Can.

Maybe because she’s used to keeping a cold face, her forced smile appeared especially stiff.

However, for her, this was already quite an effort.

"Director Dongfang looks better when smiling, appearing more approachable and beautiful!"

Zhou Can did not hold back his compliments for her.

Over the past year, before Hu Kan’s death, he would go to the anesthesiology department at least once a week to learn from Director Feng. Gradually, he became familiar with the doctors in the anesthesiology department.

The anesthesiology doctors considered him half one of their own.

Dongfang Luoxue’s friendly attitude towards Zhou Can, given that she is a chief physician treating a resident doctor as an equal, is because she has witnessed Zhou Can’s capabilities.

There was no choice but to acknowledge it.

After receiving Zhou Can’s praise, her face showed little expression. However, her eyes betrayed her; at least it could be seen that she was quite pleased inside.

Zhou Can, while assisting with the patient’s general anesthesia, took the opportunity to understand the patient’s condition.

Before Dongfang Luoxue signed the anesthesia consent form with the patient, she must have already thoroughly understood the patient’s situation. Zhou Can reviewed it again for his own learning needs.

It was also to ensure no major errors occurred during the surgery, eliminating safety hazards.

"Come, lie flat! You’ll be in a supine position during the surgery. Relax a bit; it’s like taking a nap. When you wake up, your condition will have been resolved by us."

Zhou Can comforted the patient, guiding them to lie flat.

Pyloric obstruction surgery generally uses a supine position, with an incision in the mid-upper abdomen or upper left abdominal rectus incision.

Sometimes patients prefer lying on their side due to pain.

The entire general anesthesia process was very smooth, and the patient soon fell into a sleep state with normal vital signs.

"Dr. Luo, when making incisions for this type of pyloric surgery, you must consider the patient’s actual situation. Avoid rigidly applying rules. Remember one principle: choose the incision method that most facilitates the surgery and benefits the patient’s recovery. If both cannot be balanced, weigh the pros and cons carefully; if your technique falls short, choose the incision that facilitates the surgery the most."

Zhou Can was very attentive in nurturing and instructing Luo Shishen.

It basically amounted to detailed verbal instruction.

As for how much Luo could comprehend and remember, that was up to him.

Dr. Xu stood by silently, overseeing and securing Zhou Can’s position.

Now, he has essentially reached a stage of giving Zhou Can full rein.

As long as Zhou Can could handle it himself, he wouldn’t interfere. It was precisely this liberal delegation that provided Zhou Can with incredibly valuable opportunities for independent practice and improvement.
