Department Director Kang was having difficulty thinking. His eyes were fixed in the direction of the patient’s chest, they were not focused.
He never thought that Ling Ran could really do it; he did not even put his hands on the patient, and he was already able to tell where the blood loss was.
With such an ability, did that not mean that he could stop all blood losses regardless of where they were?
With such a thought, Department Director Kang could not help but smile bitterly. ‘Isn’t that what Ling Ran is doing now?’
Only the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery had no time to ask Ling Ran for help. Other departments had asked Ling Ran for help more than once or twice. As for the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery that needed hemostasis the most… it had been directly taken over by the Emergency Department…
The muscle around Department director Kang’s eyes twitched in annoyance again. The lessons from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery were so brutal that the department directors of the small departments would all shudder for three hours whenever they remembered it.
“The wound is sutured.” He Liang took the opportunity to complete the suturing of the cardiac rupture he saw earlier.
He did not care whether there was a wound at the end of the vertical long axis or whether there was a wound at the back. If the position was too difficult, he could not suture it nicely, anyway. It would be better if he just sutured one at a time and considered it done.
Department Director Kang hummed before he sighed in slight regret. “Young He, are you done suturing?”
The department currently had very few patients and very few chances to perform surgeries. It was to the point that Department Director Kang himself needed to practice suturing cardiac wounds.
It was a pity that the cardiac wound had been taken care of by his assistant during the chaos. Department Director Kang felt an indescribable feeling of displeasure in him.
“Department director, please check it.” He Liang was still smiling. On the inside, he was incredibly happy.
Often times, the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery could not even touch a living heart, and that was also incredibly sad.
Fortunately, he managed to suture one today, and he could go through his day with a smile again. He could persevere for at least a few more weeks.
Department Director Kang sulked and checked it again. He remembered the story in “Thirty-six Ways to Scheme Against Others”. His gaze was on the monitor, and he counted silently. After a while, his expression changed a little.
“There’s no problem, right?” He Liang was unsure.
“There may be another wound…” the department director spoke reluctantly and glanced at Ling Ran from the corner of his eye.
He did not mention where the location was. One, it was because he did not believe Lin Ran could estimate the location so accurately. Two, he had no idea where it was either.
How would he know where the wound was if he did not cut it open?
Despite that, from his prior experience, Ling Ran may really know its location. Yet, Department Director Kang was reluctant to believe it.
Ling Ran’s expression was calm as if he was not surprised by this at all.
On average, Ling Ran performed thirty to fifty freelance surgeries per month. Who knew how many doctors had cooperated with him? He must have met doctors like Department Director Kang, the kind who had poor skills but had many ideas.
It was very easy for doctors to embarrass themselves if they had many ideas but poor skills.
Department Director Kang’s current feeling of embarrassment was an example.
“Make the incision wider.” Department Director Kang frowned as he gave another order. He tried to avoid eye or verbal contact with Ling Ran.
He now understood why Ling Ran said that he could still widen the incision a little more. In fact, when he went back further in the recollection of his memories, he could remember how Ling Ran sounded when he mentioned midline incision.
If he had done what Ling Ran said before, they would not have been in such trouble right now.
If he had chosen lateral incision, it would have been easier to reveal the wound now.
Department Director Kang scowled as he said to himself, ‘Is Lin Ran’s preoperative judgment that accurate?’
Even so, he refused to ask, and he could not ask. He worked without a sound and took the bone forceps before he hit the patient’s ribs.
*Swish*
The operating theater door was opened again.
Department Director Kang turned his head around and was ready to find an excuse to scold the person who came in. ‘Is this a market? Is it a place for people to come and watch whenever they want?’
Then Department Director Kang saw Huo Congjun’s wrinkled old face.
“Oh, Department Director Huo. We have a rare visitor.” Department Director Kang immediately smiled to the point that his face was full of wrinkles.
Huo Congjun smiled. “I just happened to be on the surgical floor and thought I’d stop by to take a look. Associate Hospital Director Zhou’s come along too.”
“Oh, Associate Hospital Director Zhou…” Department Director Kang repeated his name a few times. As a department director from a small department, he usually only had a few opportunities to see the hospital’s senior management.
Associate Hospital Director Zhou smiled modestly and said, “Department Director Kang, you must have had a long day. Is today’s surgery going well?”
It was a common question, but it struck Department Director Kang right where it hurt.
Department Director Kang could not help but freeze.
Of course, the standard answer was to say it was going smoothly. However, it would be a little embarrassing to say that the surgery was smooth while Ling Ran watched and the patient was still bleeding.
Well, if he said that it was not going well, it would not fit into the normal dialogue shared between leaders, and if he had to say that the surgery was not going smoothly for such a minor cardiac trauma repair surgery, it would not seem unacceptable as well.
Department Director Kang could not help but think things through.
Associate Hospital Director Zhou noticed that something was off, but he asked, “What’s today’s surgery?”
“Um… It’s a cardiac trauma repair,” Department Director Kang answered.
“Is it an emergency surgery? You can go ahead and ignore us.” Associate Hospital Director Zhou asked even though he knew the answer. He went there to keep track of Ling Ran’s situation. He did not care about how the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery was doing.
Department Director Kang answered with a smile. He took another deep breath, returned to his position as the chief surgeon, and looked at his patient’s opened chest. He appeared to be in a slight daze.
‘Now, do I continue with the exploration? Would it be kind of humiliating?’
The Department of Cardiovascular Surgery had embarrassed itself in Yun Hua Hospital multiple times, and it was precisely because of this that Department Director Kang did not want to continue embarrassing himself.
“Let’s continue.” Department Director Kang did not show any emotion on his face. He had saved hundreds of people. Regardless of whether he would end up saving another patient or sending one away, his personality meant that he would still be determined to continue the surgery.
While the patient did not sustain injuries in a good spot, Department Director Kang was confident that he could find it. There was just the possibility that he would spend a lot of time doing so.
*Glug glug*
The big autologous blood transfusion bottle was the only thing that made a sound in the operating theater.
Associate Hospital Director Zhou was standing by the side with a smile on his face. He was waiting for Department Director Kang to complete the surgery, then he would praise him. However, he waited and waited…
Department Director Kang was still busy with the patient’s chest. The sweat on his forehead gradually accumulated.
“Isn’t this cardiac trauma repair?” Associate Hospital Director Zhou was also quite knowledgeable. So, how could he not know that this was the simplest surgery for the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery?
Department Director Kang’s entire mind was occupied by lawsuits. He explained in a completely unembarrassed manner, “The position of the wound is not very good. The patient was stabbed in the chest by broken glass. Perhaps the broken glass has hit his ribs and stabbed his heart…”
“That’s indeed really complicated.” Associate Hospital Director Zhou laughed as he thought. ‘Has Old Kang’s skills regress?’
However, Huo Congjun was no longer able to hold back. He went along the flow of the conversation and said, “Ling Ran, lend Department Director Kang a hand since you’re already here.”
“Lending a hand” was a broad concept, but in conclusion, it just showed irresponsibility.
Department Director Kang hesitated for a moment and did not resist anymore. By then, he wanted to end the situation before him more than anyone else. In his present form, he was like the national soccer team playing soccer. Forget about winning the game, as long as he made it to the next match, he would have already been considered a winner!
Ling Ran waited for a few seconds. When he saw that Department Director Kang was silent, he nodded and said, “I can block the bleeding point with my finger first, then expand the opening…”
He spoke as he stretched out his right hand boldly to the side where the vertical long axis of the heart was.
“I’m done.” Ling Ran stood straight as he indicated that the bleeding had stopped.
A few people turned their heads to look at the monitor.
“The bleeding has stopped,” the anesthetist reported. He felt a little faint.
“Noted,” Department Director Kang whispered as if something was stuck in his throat.
