Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic

Chapter 489 - 230: The Strongest Surgery Department, Is This for Resident Trainees?_2

Ou Qinglan spoke seriously.

This somewhat overturned Li Jingsheng’s understanding of General Surgery.

"Wait a moment, we can witness the true level of General Surgery. I don’t even know what kind of surgery they’re going to perform. Judging by Director Hua’s tone, the patient must urgently need this surgery."

Surgeries done at night are basically urgent ones.

Either the chief surgeon doesn’t have time during the day, or the patient’s condition deteriorates rapidly and not performing surgery that night would pose a severe threat to life.

There’s also a case where they need to invite an external hospital doctor to perform the surgery.

Commonly referred to as ’flying knife.’

Li Jingsheng can consider developing towards this direction in the future.

His small clinic is just getting started; after a few years of solid development, once he has some foundation, he can slowly build his own surgical team. By then, he can fly with the team and take on challenging cases.

The income from that will be quite extravagant.

Very likely to be much higher than the current income of the clinic.

The two quickly arrived at the General Surgery operating room.

"This is one of the two best operating rooms in our hospital, a laminar flow clean operating room."

Ou Qinglan whispered.

It can be seen that the exterior of the operating room looks different, more technologically advanced.

The materials used are also more high-end.

Including the doors of the operating room.

"Amazing, it all looks top-notch, and it’s all built with money!" Li Jingsheng truly envied this, as his clinic currently only has a regular operating room.

And they haven’t even put together the equipment yet.

Shadowless lamp, electric coagulation knife, high-frequency electric knife, bipolar electric coagulator, etc., basically lacking everything.

Only some basic ’cold weapons.’

Traditional surgical knives, tweezers, needle holders, scissors, and so on.

In this era of rapid advancement in medical technology, his operating room only has these most rudimentary tools, essentially still in the ’Stone Age.’

However, there’s no need to rush this; Lian Tao has brought good news, letting him wait patiently.

By then, moving an ’operating room’ from the People’s Hospital over would be quite good.

The cost is generally one to two-thirds of the original price.

For example, surgical beds, slightly better ones are mostly over sixteen thousand. At one to two-thirds the price, they can be bought for only two to three thousand.

These won’t break in thirty years.

If Li Jingsheng earns enough money, he won’t have to wait until thirty years and can switch to better, brand-new equipment.

"The price should be quite expensive! I heard the hospital initially only built this one laminar flow clean operating room, and back when Cardiac Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Thoracic Surgery had major surgeries, they needed to queue up here to perform them. Later on, these departments weren’t happy, so the hospital built another one."

Providing General Surgery with such good treatment makes other surgical departments have to yield, which they certainly won’t agree to!

Even so, you can’t underestimate the Phoenix without feathers.

However, Neurosurgery and Cardiac Surgery are still highly specialized and advanced departments; even if their techniques are poor, they won’t be that bad.

Despite this, it shows the hospital’s attention to General Surgery.

Providing General Surgery with a laminar flow clean operating room, while other departments share one room.

Of course, the scheduling of operating room use is handled by someone responsible for coordination.

There’s a basic principle that General Surgery’s operating room must prioritize the use of General Surgery procedures.

As they were talking, Director Hua came over with his team.

Ou Qinglan was a bit nervous standing next to Li Jingsheng.

"Director Hua!"

She timidly called out.

"Xiaou, be more confident. If you have any problems at work, feel free to report them to me anytime. Let’s go inside."

Director Hua showed kindness towards others due to Li Jingsheng’s outstanding performance, considering it as an effort to draw Li Jingsheng closer.

Following Director Hua were doctors from the Orthopedics Department.

It was clear that Hu Jia held a very high position in Orthopedics. The department evidently regarded him as a key figure to cultivate.

Director Hua only brought two people, one of them was Hu Jia.

In addition, there was Director Chen Anchen.

Director Chen Anchen’s surgical skills must be incredibly strong; after all, he openly expressed disdain toward Professor Wu, all written across his face, without any concealment.

If not, isn’t it a case of the pot calling the kettle black?

"Be confident and don’t weaken our Orthopedics Department aura, or people might look down on us."

Chen Anchen advised Li Jingsheng and Ou Qinglan.

After pressing the bell, the door to the operating room quickly opened.

A nurse glanced at the five, smiling, "Director Hua, Director Chen, we’ve been awaiting your arrival."

"How’s the patient’s condition?"

Director Hua seemed more serious outside.

He appeared warmer back in Orthopedics.

"There is no immediate threat to life; the injury has been somewhat stabilized. Blood loss is a bit extensive, and Director Bi is concerned that excessive bleeding during limb-saving surgery might be an issue, given the blood supply in the blood bank isn’t very adequate."

The blood supply center is not managed by the hospital, and blood usage needs to be applied for in advance.

And from a hierarchical perspective, the Second Hospital in Jiangli City doesn’t rank highly. Whether in terms of surgery volume or medical authority, it’s relatively at the bottom.

Even though the Second Hospital’s background is quite formidable, monopolizing the southern area of the city, many medical resources allocation is not solely its decision.

Compared with People’s Hospital and Qiaobang Hospital, it’s like the difference between a chicken and an eagle.

The five changed into surgical attire and slippers, and after disinfection, entered the operating room.

The space inside was much larger than imagined, with dedicated reserve rooms, rest areas, waste disposal rooms, as well as outside anesthetic rooms and recovery rooms.
