Chapter 891: Switch People

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Handle the discharge process for Bed 12.”

“Go and ask for the MRI scan of Bed 35 for Doctor Ling’s surgery in the afternoon.”

“Doctor Yu, that child said he felt nauseous and vomited.”

Ling Ran was walking leisurely in the treatment room of the Emergency Medical Center. He found himself adapting very well to the noisy surroundings.

Bazhaixiang branch hospital was too small. Not only did it not have enough operating theaters and hospital beds, it also did not have enough staff for medical lab tests, nor enough medical imaging equipment. They also had few patients, and their disease sources were scarce as well.

All he saw while he was there were the same common diseases. Furthermore, due to the large number of doctors compared to patients, the prognosis for patients and nursing care was no longer interesting.

After returning to Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center and listening to the surrounding noise, Ling Ran could truly feel that he was more needed by the patients over here…

“The child who was nauseous and vomited did not go to the toilet for the past two days.” Ling Ran reminded Yu Yuan when he saw Yu Yuan frowning and was prepared to follow the nurse to the ward.

Yu Yuan was stunned for a while and immediately thought of something. She told the nurse beside her, “Could you get a bottle of glycerine enema as well.”

After working so long in the emergency room, Ling Ran had gradually gained some experience in handling normal diseases. Most importantly, he had always paid attention to the symptoms of the patients from the moment they were admitted to the moment they were discharged. Hence, he knew their diseases when he heard of them. For example, when he heard of the case of the child vomiting today, he immediately thought of constipation.

Symptoms of constipation in children might be abdominal pain or vomiting.

Yu Yuan was too busy. After she was reminded of this by Ling Ran, she suddenly realized what was going on and immediately came up with a solution.

The nurse accepted her order and went to collect the medicine, whereas Ling Ran still wandered around the treatment room.

He did not have other surgeries for today.

Ling Ran had just come back from Bazhaixiang, and he had not performed any consultations yet. The transferred cases from other departments and the random cases in the Emergency Medical Center could not sustain his daily surgery volume.

In fact, Ling Ran only used one morning to finish all the hepatectomy patients accumulated yesterday. Then, he could only hang around in the treatment room and observation room.

The young doctors might still have medical records to write or have patients whom they needed to be in charge of. But at Ling Ran’s level, if he did not go for freelance surgery or was packed with surgeries, he actually had nothing much to do.

In short, he was successful now.

Certainly, he was only successful in a tertiary Grade A hospital, or rather, he was successful in a tertiary Grade A hospital like Yun Hua Hospital, which was considered the best in the region. If he had a greater goal of getting promoted or hoping to get the title of an academician title from the Chinese Academy of Engineering, he needed to put in more effort and did more things on the research side.

“Ling Ran, come, come, come…” Doctor Zhou started to perform consultations when he saw that Ling Ran was here. After the patient’s family members paid the fees and the patients sat at the front, Doctor Zhou acted as though he just saw Ling Ran and shouted at him.

Ling Ran took a few brisk steps and came before Doctor Zhou.

“The young man injured himself while skateboarding. Do you want to suture it?” Doctor Zhou grinned and stood up.

A boy who seemed to be in high school sat in front of him. He had many bruises on his face and arms. His worst injuries were the helix of his ear and his chin, which were lacerated. If he looked carefully, the patient was basically disfigured.

Of course, the patient only looked rather pathetic. Based on how well a normal person could recover, as long the two wounds were properly sutured and the lacerations healed, at most, only a few faint lines would remain.

Ling Ran had the urge to perform a surgery too. When he saw Doctor Zhou giving up his space for him, he said, “Wait for me to wash my hands.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” Doctor Zhou smiled like a doting parent. “Come back soon. I’ll occupy this sport for you. You poor thing, after walking around, no one gave up a space for you.”

Ling Ran replied with a smile. From a certain aspect, Doctor Zhou could be considered as his favorite doctor.

A while later, Ling Ran washed his hands. He held his hands away from his chest and came back.

Doctor Zhou had spread out all the instruments in the small cubicle of the treatment room. In fact, the high school student’s face was also wiped cleanly, all that was left was for Ling Ran to suture his face.

Ling Ran took a deep breath and added two more marks for Doctor Zhou.

As a doctor, the most important part was being meticulous.

“Let’s use the 6-0 surgical silk suture.” Ling Ran put on gloves and gave an order to the young nurse beside him.

“Excuse me… Which doctor will be performing the suture?” The patient’s mother who sat at the corner stared at Ling Ran and seemed reluctant to let Ling Ran perform the suturing.

Doctor Zhou immediately understood and said, “Doctor Ling is a well known doctor in our hospital, and his suturing skills are among the top.”

The patient’s mother looked at Doctor Zhou, then looked at Ling Ran before she whispered, “Too young.”

“It’s just suturing. What does it have to do with age?” Doctor Zhou smiled.

The patient’s mother became stern. “The wounds are on the face. The results will last for life. Please… Doctor Zhou, can you perform his suture?”

Doctor Zhou did not know whether he wanted to laugh or cry. “But Doctor Ling truly has the best suturing skills.”

The mother still felt doubt, and she hesitated for a few seconds before she insisted. “Doctor Zhou, please do the suturing.”

“I…” Doctor Zhou sighed. “Doctor Ling truly does a better job. If you don’t believe me, I can perform the sutures as well.”

The mother shook her head seriously and looked at Doctor Zhou.

“Do you really want me to perform the suture?” Doctor Zhou felt resigned.

The patient’s mother nodded.

Doctor Zhou could only look at Ling Ran. Although their rules and regulations did not allow patients the authority to choose their doctors, under current circumstances, it was pointless to keep going against the will of the patient’s family member. If it were not handled well, they might receive complaints. Why should they go through that sort of torment?

Ling Ran did not think too much about it and said, “Doctor Zhou, it’s okay for you to do the suturing.”

“Okay. Then, I’ll do it. But since you’ve already washed your hands, you might as well give me some instructions.” Doctor Zhou mediated the situation with a silver tongue. He extended his hands and said, “Give me the 5-0 surgical silk suture.”

The 5-0 surgical silk suture was thicker than the 6-0 surgical silk suture. However, it was much easier to use.

While Ling Ran could easily use the 6-0 surgical silk suture to suture, Doctor Zhou had even a difficult time using even the 5-0 surgical silk sutures.

The nurse quietly took out an absorbable 5-0 surgical silk suture and fixed it on a needle holder.

The patient’s family watched by the side, and a smile could be seen on their faces.

Then, Doctor Zhou injected anesthetic, waited for a moment, took the needle holder, and started to suture.

“Doctor Ling, should I start from here?” Doctor Zhou was naturally very experienced in suturing the face, but he did not have many chances to learn. He only ever had the chance of watching other doctors perform sutures on the face, then try it on his own before he formed a conclusion based on his experience.

In short, doctors who had become attending physicians would have long since mastered suturing skills because they had become familiar with it.

However, for a normal doctor, in order to achieve Ling Ran’s suturing level, practice was not enough. At the very least, they would not be able to reach his level just by practicing blindly.

Doctor Zhou lost his chance to be lazy, so he decided to learn from Ling Ran while Ling Ran was beside him.

Ling Ran did not think too much about it. He went straight to teaching mode and said, “The wound is quite deep. I suggest pushing the needle into the reticular layer and pulling it out of the papillary region. If you do this, you can tie a knot at the reticular layer, and you won’t form scar tissue so easily.

Doctor Zhou kept nodding his head. “In this case, it’ll also be easy to close the epidermis.”

“Yes.”

“Do I use subcuticular suture over here?”

“Yes. Just tie a knot at the cut. The epidermis does not require suturing. This way, the scar resulting from natural healing will be even smaller.”

“Can I enter the needle like this?”

“Okay, it will be better to make it deeper…”

Ling Ran instructed Doctor Zhou. One of them spoke while the other performed the suture. Very soon, the two wounds were sutured.

The patient’s family watched by the side, and they had no idea whether they should talk or not.

“It’s done. Go back and rest. Avoid touching water…” Doctor Zhou was a bit excited, since he had sutured the wounds right from the start to the end and performed the dressing on his own as well.

For him, this was a very rare suturing experience.

“There shouldn’t be… any scar, right?” The patient’s mother was not too sure.

“It’s impossible for you to not have any scars, but it won’t be too deep. At his age, the scar will gradually fade away as well.” Doctor Zhou encouraged the patient’s family members and sent them out from the cubicle.

Before the patient’s mother left, she looked at Ling Ran firmly and looked at Doctor Zhou. She hesitated, but did not say anything.
