1.0095 You Don’t Know The Pain of An Interventional Surgeon

The special lead ap.r.o.n from the System was similar to the one in the hospital. The color and make allowed it to blend in with the other lead ap.r.o.ns on the clothes rack.

However, the System did not provide any explanation as to how the lead ap.r.o.n could transform radiation into energy. The getup only consisted of a vest with no ap.r.o.n skirt, headwear or goggles. Zheng Ren was mystified.

Whatever.

Zheng Ren had no time to investigate it further, so he put on the special lead ap.r.o.n alongside other normal gear. At the same time, the Chu sisters were starting general anesthesia.

General anesthesia was not necessary for interventional embolization surgery, but as the patient was in a state of hemorrhagic shock, seizures were a concern. If the guide wire broke in the patient’s blood vessel… Now, that would make for an interesting day.

He washed his hands thoroughly and put on the sterile scrubs. The general anesthesia was complete and thus the surgery began.

“Do you have experience in interventional surgery?” Zheng Ren asked Su Yun.

Su Yun was already geared up and standing beside Zheng Ren like a shadow. Zheng Ren could only hope for such a handsome silhouette for himself but alas, life was unfair.

“Nope,” Su Yun answered with a smirk. His eyes crinkled attractively.

Zheng Ren was speechless.

“I’ve seen you do it once, so I more or less know what to do,” Su Yun said in earnest.

‘Huh, do you think you’re Saint Seiya? What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger?’ Zheng Ren thought.

Zheng Ren had nothing to say, but at least he had an a.s.sistant now. It would be much better than operating alone.

He would take Su Yun as an accompanying houseman.

The patient’s blood pressure was at 60/40mmHg. Without saying another word, Zheng Ren opened the catheterization kit and took out his materials.

After disinfection, the first puncture attempt yielded blood.

It was a skill that Zheng Ren picked up after hours of intensive training in the System. He had also performed hundreds of catheterizations during the nitrite poisoning incident.

Su Yun’s eyes brightened at this show of skill.

The first time he had witnessed Zheng Ren’s skill at catheterization was during the placenta abruption case. He had dismissed it as a one-off stroke of luck. Now, this was the second time Zheng Ren managed to find the vessel at the first puncture. It could not be a coincidence.

Zheng Ren must have incredible skill to be successful on the first attempt, especially since the patient’s blood pressure was so low.

Su Yun was quick to criticize but could recognize skill and talent.

“Guide wire.” Zheng Ren held on to the vascular sheath and motioned with his other hand.

The wire was placed in his hand before he had even finished his sentence.

Zheng Ren was mildly impressed by the man. He had no experience in interventional surgery but knew what the next step was.

Su Yun was as quick as Xie Yiren when a.s.sisting in general surgery. This combination might work out.

Huh, he was quite the genius.

Thoughts were running through Zheng Ren’s mind as he slowly inserted the guide wire into the vascular sheath within the femoral artery.

On the Xinglin Garden livestream, the bullet comments were flying.

[The surgeon just completed a spleen removal and liver trauma surgery. Now he’s onto a pelvic fracture interventional embolization surgery? Which hospital does this stream belong to?]

[My mentor called up Xinglin Garden. They said the transmission originates from a teaching hospital in Montreal, Canada.]

[Oh? That’s the hometown of Norman Bethune. Could it be that Old Mr. Bethune¹ is starting a livestream to teach surgery?]

The origin of these mysterious livestreams was twisted into an unrecognizable mess.

Regardless of their ident.i.ty, be they a foreigner or a Chinese citizen in a public or private hospital, the skills of the host surgeon or surgeons were indubitable.

For now, most people believed that it was a group of surgeons performing different types of surgeries. Hence, that it was a livestream from Canada was believable.

[Anyone who specializes in interventional surgery care to shed some light?]
