Chapter 2410: Driving People Away
Their eyes met briefly, sparks flying.
Who dares to peek at his child without his permission?
Got caught red-handed. But it’s their territory. No matter, she was watching her junior colleagues, nothing to be afraid of.
A burst of anger seemed to stain those cool, immortal-like eyes; stealing someone right under his nose and targeting his child — how could he not be furious? Cao Zhao’s gaze darkened.
Senior Yoo felt like Princess Iron Fan picking up her plantain fan to fan herself. To say she felt no pressure would be a lie. Being on someone’s turf, she had to bravely and thick-skinnedly continue watching.
If it weren’t for not wanting to disturb his child during the surgery, Cao Zhao would have kicked this person out long ago. Do not underestimate the temper of the Immortal Brother.
After excision and setting the blocking band, it was time for intubation. The child’s blood vessels were small, with relatively thin walls, requiring patches to suture and fix the tubes. In this regard, the doctors had to work like embroidery craftsmen. Even the young doctors with good eyesight were straining their eyes with surgical magnifiers, staring intently at the suturing.
Thankfully, this child wasn’t as small as an infant. If it were an infant, Xie Wanying recalled the operation she paired with Teacher Nie, where doctors would occasionally find their fingers too large and had to use tools instead. Teacher Tan emphasized the importance of using good tools, which would be repeatedly proven in pediatrics.
The aorta is the most important and largest artery in the human body. Doing this intubation inevitably requires several key precautions, like fear of instability, spraying, and leakage of blood. To prevent excessive pressure from the intubation causing a blood spray, doctors usually preemptively prepare major blood loss prevention measures. They start by stitching two purse strings on the outer membrane of the aorta to insert a hemostat before making the arterial incision to insert the arterial catheter.
Suturing stitch by stitch, the person sewing said nothing, while the spectators were already breaking out in a cold sweat. Children’s blood vessels are quite tricky; any carelessness can easily lead to bleeding from stitches. The chief surgeon, Student Duan, was dexterous as a swallow, but due to the rush at the beginning, he was extremely tired.
Seeing the situation, the Second Assistant and Third Assistant needed to step in to help, allowing the chief surgeon to occasionally catch his breath.
After the first purse string was sewn, the second one was done by the First Assistant. With the chief surgeon having demonstrated once, Student Xie essentially replicated the procedure. Yet, no one around realized she was improvising on the spot. Watching her smooth movements, two quick swipes, the thread passed through the patch and the arterial membrane without any bleeding.
"Has she done cardiac surgery before?" Not just the anesthesiologist, but the nurses and the extracorporeal circulation technician collectively doubted that Xie Wanying could possibly be a new intern.
A clever child learns quickly. But this Student Xie was overly clever. Otherwise, why would he and his brother always want to touch her head? Cao Zhao kept silent, with someone nearby needing to be guarded against.
Senior Yoo tiptoed slightly, the gaze from over there was sharper, like a sword ready to slice off her head.
Are you leaving or not? The final ultimatum came from the opposite side.
Unexpectedly, a pediatric doctor had such a deterrent force. Senior Yoo bit her lip, turned around and walked away first, seething with anger, planning to take her juniors back to her hospital. Damn it, once back on her turf, she’d be in charge and able to kick this person out.
Senior Yoo, upon leaving the operating room, didn’t see her junior colleagues and immediately picked up the phone to call Luo Jingming, saying straight away: "Keep an eye out, okay?"
Luo Jingming, answering the phone: ==, Senior Sister, what kind of intense stress have you been under?
