967 Where Should We Go? (2/2)

He Liang had no other option. He looked at Department Director Kang subconsciously and soon realized he had made a mistake.

Department Director Kang only stared at him coldly without saying anything.

Coincidentally, He Liang could only perform suturing. His department director may have been useless, but Huo Congjun and Associate Department Director Zhou were not. They did not need to say anything else. They could just look for an excuse and send him to help the poor, which could easily make him lose 33.1 pounds of weight.

He Liang lowered his head again like an assistant dog. He asked tamely for the thread and needle, speaking in a low voice, ”I haven't sutured this spot before.”

”Insert the needle from the position of my finger.” Ling Ran started to teach him without any hesitation.

”Alright.” That was the only reply He Liang dared to give. He was just like an intern, and he held the needle with a trembling hand.

”Wait for a while… Hold your hand more steadily.” Ling Ran could tell He Liang's condition and reminded him emotionlessly.

Ling Ran was truly experienced when it came to teaching others in performing surgery or spoon-feeding others during surgery.

He had performed many freelance surgeries within the Changxi Province, and finishing the surgery was not his goal every time.

Patients who invited freelance surgeons over usually aimed to get better treatment. However, it was different in different hospitals with different doctors. Many doctors invited freelance surgeons over to learn. For example, the First People's Hospital of Wuxin City invited freelance surgeons so that they could learn hepatectomy and be independent when they performed the surgery later on.

Such an act was just like asking the supplier to provide the production skills after purchasing the products. It was normal in Chinese companies, and as long as the price was reasonable, they would help the buyers achieve their goal.

Ling Ran usually did not mind teaching his skills to other doctors.

In fact, with the series of freelance surgeries he had performed, Ling Ran even gained a lot of experience in teaching.

When dealing with doctors like He Liang who had some skills but no confidence, Ling Ran would explain in detail, ”Normally, you can use a simple interrupted stitch or horizontal mattress suture on all layers of the muscle for a cardiac rupture like this. Just use whichever you're more competent with. But for this position, to avoid affecting the blood supply, you can suture on both sides of the rupture and use intersecting traction to stop the bleeding temporarily…”

He Liang quietly listened without a word. Ling Ran only mentioned the suturing technique for normal cardiac trauma. He was quite familiar with the technique as well.

But as Ling Ran explained things, He Liang slowly calmed down.

'That's right. I'm just suturing for a cardiac trauma in a bad position. Who would've sutured every location, right? It's the same as other surgeons executing the same plan in a different position.'

When He Liang thought about that, his hand stopped trembling while he held the needle.

Ling Ran helped him pull the thread, and within a short time, the patient's cardiac rupture was sutured.

Both of them cooperated well, as though they had cooperated for many years.

He Liang sensed kindness. He felt more comfortable working together with Ling Ran than Department Director Kang, whom he was more familiar with.

At that moment, he could not help but look at Department Director Kang for a while.

Department Director Kang still lowered his head like an old lion that refused to take defeat lying down. He would wait for Ling Ran to leave before he regained his power.

”Wash it, then perform sternal closure.” Yet, Ling Ran did not want to leave.

What a joke. There was no way he would run after performing bleeding control. He took a lot of effort to get there.

Ling Ran did not mind the effort in performing the surgery, though, and told He Liang to rinse the pericardial cavity and perform drainage tubing as well as multi-layer sternal closure.

Department Director Kang was stunned. He could only raise his hands in front of him and observe from the side without feeling humiliated.

It was fortunate that he did not need to wait for a long time. The sternal closure was faster than usual because of Ling Ran.

Even so, the length of time for the sternal closure was long enough that Department Director Kang was able to observe Ling Ran's operation carefully.

It was simple, straightforward, and careful.

Ling Ran's operation was just like a standard answer that made anyone who saw it enlightened, but at the same time, frown and fall into deep thought.

Department Director Kang raised his head slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through in his mind.

'How can he be so powerful?

'If he's so powerful, what should I do?

'Which direction should the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery progress to if that's the case?'
