“Okay, you all continue to try,” Director Zheng ordered.
Everyone thought about the director’s words: Is he letting these three youngsters continue to try?
It seems so. Seeing Li Guoxin straighten up, he used both hands to support the patient’s upper body and said to the students, “Come on, help him drain the pus.” Evidently, after seeing a bit of progress, he believed the young people’s method was worth trying.
The leaders and professors indeed have quick reflexes. With the backing of their teachers, Xie Wanying and the others could bolster their courage even more.
Li Guoxin’s gaze was fixed on Student Xie’s hands opposite him. He saw very clearly that, apart from Student Pan who was responsible for holding the drainage tube, even more critical was Student Xie assisting on the other side. Otherwise, why was it that the experienced doctors didn’t think the tube could be removed to drain the substance, yet these students managed to accomplish it?
Their hands were placed on the patient’s abdomen, where the patient was malnourished and very thin, with almost no fat on the abdomen. Xie Wanying could feel as though her fingers were covered by only a thin layer of skin, and with a slight deeper probing, she could almost reach the various organs and tissues inside the patient’s abdominal cavity.
But touching these wasn’t useful. What’s needed is judgment and solution-oriented thinking. Experienced doctors can feel what organ is inside the abdominal cavity, but they often lack the strategy for problem-solving. This is why the attending doctor and Li Guoxin believed that solely adjusting the drainage tube couldn’t achieve the goal, and another surgery was needed.
Pressing on the abscess through the abdominal skin to squeeze out the pus? That’s impossible.
The abscess lies deep within, and pressing forcefully could injure other organs of the patient.
Also, this pressing method might inadvertently rupture the abscess, directly turning it into a medical accident.
Xie Wanying could not directly act on the abscess. What she needed to do was, as she told the teachers this morning, guide the movement order of the organs inside the patient’s abdominal cavity. There must be no pressing on the location of the abscess to let the patient’s intestines move, avoiding further blockage of the drainage area.
The three pairs of eyes of Li Guoxin, Director Zheng, and Doctor Jiang were focused on Xie Wanying’s hand movements. They understood that sometimes a doctor’s technique could work wonders, so they were in no hurry to be surprised.
Huang Zhilei adjusted his glasses while similarly standing on tiptoe to observe the junior sister. He had previously heard from others in their department that his junior sister had been performing more amazing feats, and he and Senior Cao regretted not being able to witness them firsthand. Now, watching the junior sister’s performance, he could report back to Senior Cao in detail.
A group of people were so focused on her hands that they apparently forgot another equally important role; the outcome had to be checked through the drainage tube.
Doctor Jiang suddenly remembered to keep an eye on his student and turned to look at Pan Shihua. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
The others were all focusing on Student Xie, which conveniently eased the pressure on him. With sterile gloves on, Pan Shihua handled the operation even more stably, watching Student Xie’s eyes and movements while using his sense of touch to slowly pull the drainage tube a little further out. Following this, his previously furrowed brows finally relaxed.
Exclamations erupted from the onlookers: “It’s out, it’s out!”
Upon hearing the shouts from the crowd, Li Guoxin and Director Zheng hurriedly turned back to look at the drainage tube.
Doctor Jiang let out a sigh of relief.
With a gurgling sound, the “dirty stuff” flowed out segment by segment through the drainage tube, while the doctor’s hands gently flicked the rubber tube to encourage the continued flow of the “dirt” outward.
