Chapter 209: Chapter 210: Oh dear, sorry to keep you all waiting, huh?
Li Baoshan felt that he might have misunderstood Chen Cang!
And he discovered that these directors might also have some misunderstandings about Chen Cang!
Are we talking about the same Chen Cang?
Hearing Li Baoshan’s question, Xiao He nodded, too hurried to explain, and immediately picked up his cell phone to call Chen Cang.
Having been through a strenuous night, Chen Cang was somewhat exhausted, even with a physical bonus, but that one or two points of stamina only had a 20 percent enhancement, meaning it had increased a bit from before, but not as much as he imagined.
Chen Cang suddenly missed his surgical gown, which offered a 3-point bonus to his stamina, and a special skill, a monthly recovery.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang suddenly felt he should find an opportunity to try it out.
See just how powerful that recovery skill really is!
At that moment, a call suddenly came in, from Xiao He.
“Chen, you’re at the hospital, aren’t you?” Xiao He’s voice had several degrees more urgency.
Chen Cang couldn’t help but get serious, “Yes, I am here; Director Xiao, what’s the matter?”
Xiao He nodded, “Come to the operating room first, the gynecology operating room, we’ll talk when you’re here.”
After speaking, the call ended, and Chen Cang quickly got up and headed toward the operating room.
Could there be something wrong again?
…
…
Li Baoshan watched Xiao He end the call and still couldn’t help asking, “Director Xiao, isn’t this a bit hasty? Chen is a doctor in our department, only 27 years old. He hasn’t dealt with esophageal surgery before, has he?”
When the director of gynecology, Zhang Jinfeng, heard this, his eyebrows shot up instantly, “Director Xiao… this isn’t a joke, right? Esophageal repair surgery isn’t that simple. Every year, no small number of people die because of it. This is our patient, we can’t afford any mishaps!”
Gynecology could be said to have the most complicated inter-personal relationships in the hospital, no exception.
Here, not only are all the doctors women, but even the patients are all women! Adding to that are all the mothers-in-law and mothers accompanying them; if you dare make any error, you’d better watch out.
So Zhang Jinfeng didn’t beat around the bush and directly urged Xiao He to dispel those wild ideas.
She thought Xiao He wanted Chen Cang to practice.
Witnessing this scene, even Xiao He was taken aback.
It was one thing for others to not understand Chen Cang, but Li Baoshan, you’re the director of the emergency department, don’t you understand Chen Cang?
Thinking this, Xiao He felt somewhat baffled, wondering who really was in charge of emergency…
By now, the nurses were already preparing the operating room, and the patient was also getting ready for surgery; everything was waiting for the procedure to begin.
Seeing a group of directors gathered here, Liu Jian curiously walked over and greeted them.
Though young, Liu Jian was the star of the anesthesiology department, his skills nearly on par with the directors’, and most importantly, Liu Jian had a better grasp of new things, often going out for advanced training and meetings.
Of course, all of this stemmed from the department head’s esteem.
When Zhang Jinfeng saw Liu Jian, she hurriedly said, “Doctor Liu, there’s a surgery later, please help with the anesthesia.”
Liu Jian nodded with a smile, “No problem, Director Zhang, your word is my command. My child was delivered by Director Zhang, and now at home, they’re always talking about Grandma Zhang.”
Zhang Jinfeng heard Liu Jian’s words, and his tense mood eased a bit, unable to help himself, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Liu Jian asked, “What surgery?”
Zhang Jinfeng’s expression grew grave as he said, “Esophageal repair! During the childbirth process, the patient’s intra-abdominal pressure suddenly increased, squeezing the stomach and causing a sudden rise in the pressure within the esophageal lumen. This caused a large pressure difference between the inside of the esophageal lumen and the thoracic cavity, leading to the rupture of the esophagus!”
“The situation is pretty severe. If Director Li hadn’t called for external assistance, we would have transferred the patient. See, all these directors have been asked by me to come for consultations.”
After listening, Liu Jian gave a faint smile, “No worries. By the way, Doctor Chen Cang should be arriving soon, right? I’ll go get ready for the anesthesia.”
When Liu Jian said this, everyone was dumbfounded.
Zhang Jinfeng said, clueless, “What Doctor Chen Cang?”
Li Baoshan and Tao Zi also looked at each other before turning to Liu Jian, “Which Doctor Chen Cang?”
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Liu Jian was taken aback, and looking at Xiao He, he asked, “Director Xiao, isn’t Chen Cang the one performing the surgery?”
Xiao He nodded, “Yes, but Director Li has contacted Director Wei Zhi from the Provincial People’s Hospital, who will arrive in less than an hour.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Jian couldn’t help but give an embarrassed smile, “Why get Wei Zhi? You all know about Niu Tianlu, right? The specialist from the capital who has been employed long-term in our hospital’s thoracic surgery.”
How could anyone not know? Wasn’t the thoracic surgery department built up thanks to him?
Niu Tianlu was the deputy director of the thoracic surgery department at the Capital’s 302 Hospital; his skill level went without saying.
Zhang Jinfeng couldn’t help but ask, “We know, but didn’t Director Niu return to the capital? If Director Niu were here, we wouldn’t be in such a panic at all!”
Li Baoshan and the others also nodded in agreement.
Although the thoracic surgery department was merely a formality in the past, with Niu Tianlu around, it indeed saved everyone a lot of trouble.
The thoracic surgery department, along with the respiratory department, cardiac surgery, gastroenterology, endoscopy room, and emergency department, were all closely linked and often required mutual support.
Now that the thoracic department had been disbanded, everyone suddenly felt the pressure of continuous difficult situations.
Xiao He felt it the most distinctly!
Liu Jian continued, “I’ve been the anesthesiologist for Director Niu all along, haven’t I? I think Director Niu’s level of esophageal repair surgery is not as good as Chen Cang’s.”
Upon hearing this, those around were shocked!
Li Baoshan felt maybe he lacked communication and understanding with Chen Cang and couldn’t help saying, “Doctor Liu, are you sure the Chen Cang you mentioned is the one from our department?”
Liu Jian was amused by Li Baoshan and nodded, “Of course, does our hospital have a second Chen Cang?”
“Didn’t Director Xiao have a patient yesterday? Esophageal perforation surgery, and it was Doctor Chen Cang who performed it. I watched the entire procedure from start to finish without missing a detail, and the precision was exquisite!”
“Although Director Niu is entirely capable of performing such surgery, I think the procedure’s not as exquisite and delicate as Doctor Chen Cang’s, especially when it came to repairing the esophagus, Doctor Chen Cang was particularly meticulous!”
“Wei Zhi… he specializes in the thoracic major vessel direction, but I always feel that we can perform the esophageal repair surgery ourselves!”
Xiao He also nodded, “Indeed, I had a patient yesterday with esophageal perforation. I originally planned to have the patient transferred, but then I thought of Doctor Chen Cang and let him take a look. He said he could do it, so I let him perform the surgery.”
“I personally feel that he did very well! Not inferior to those experts at all!”
By this time, Chen Cang had already entered the operating room and saw a row of directors and anesthesiologists standing there, feeling a bit embarrassed.
With a coy smile, he said, “Ah, waiting for me, are you? I’m so sorry…”
