Chapter 520: Follow the teacher’s arrangement for surgery on May 20th. Chapter 520: Follow the teacher’s arrangement for surgery on May 20th. “Emergency acute abdominal patient, had been observed in emergency at another hospital, and internal medicine treatment did not alleviate the condition; family urgently brought him to our emergency department seeking help. A distinct mass can be felt in the abdomen, had a CT scan, and needs exploratory laparotomy.”

Xie Wanying memorized the patient’s condition as described by Teacher Liu, word by word.

Sister Lingling, worried about the availability of hospital beds, said into the phone, “Doctor Zhong, we have no beds left in our department.”

“Move the patients who are due for discharge tomorrow out to the corridor for now; we must admit such emergency cases!” Doctor Zhong said bluntly on the other end of the line.

With the doctor’s words, the nurses could only seek help to organize a bed. Then Lingling turned back to ask the doctor, “Given the patient’s condition, he goes straight to the OR before being admitted to the ward, right?”

“Yes, the patient goes directly to the operating room. All preoperative tests are done in emergency. I’ve notified the anesthesiology department. Hurry and tell Doctor Sun to get ready to take the team up there. Who’s on the second line, call them back. I can’t possibly go up there to help with the surgery, I have a bunch of other patients to deal with in emergency. You tell him to arrange it himself. Bring the emergency medical record with the patient to the operating room later.” After saying all this without wasting a single word, Doctor Zhong quickly hung up the phone.

The on-duty staff in the department felt like ants on a hot pan, running around frantically.

Now looking back, Teacher Sun was really clever and experienced, seizing the chance to get some sleep. Xie Wanying thought she needed to learn a lot from Teacher Sun.

No one knew how many hours an exploratory operation would take. It was now past ten o’clock at night.

Li Qi’an, when notified that he might also have to help in the operating room, hurried back and asked nervously, “Do I need to go to the OR? What can I do, Yingying?”

“Wait for Teacher Liu’s instructions,” Xie Wanying told him not to worry.

Meanwhile, Sun Yubo had gotten up and called Brother Liu, “Our department’s Doctor Zhong in emergency admitted a patient with acute abdomen, para-duodenal hernia.”

“Have they sent him to the operating room yet?”

“They said after completing preoperative tests they would transfer him; I guess they have, since the CT results are out,” Sun Yubo said.

“I’ll be at the hospital in about fifteen minutes. Tell Xie Wanying and her classmate to go up to the OR; you stay in the ward.” Liu Chengran said.

Sun Yubo, across the phone, felt like giving a kiss to Brother Liu, thankful not to be scheduled for surgery that night. Hanging up the phone, he then turned to the two students and said, “You two will go to the OR tonight. Learn well from Teacher Liu.”

“Yes, Teacher.” Xie Wanying and Li Qi’an accepted the teacher’s instructions.

The two newbies made their way to the operating room by the stairs. Li Qi’an, who rarely came here, especially at night, felt like a little rabbit with wildly thumping heart, following closely behind Xie Wanying.

Having heard that the emergency patient had been taken to the OR, Xie Wanying led her classmate straight there, and upon entering, they saw Doctor Zhang preparing anesthesia for the patient.

Doctor Zhang’s full name is Zhang Tinghai.

Seeing her, Zhang Tinghai cast an indifferent glance over Xie Wanying’s face, then turned away, not uttering a word, focused on his task.
