Chapter 1352: 【1352】Had I known earlier
"For this type of patient, it should have been a third-level expansion, taking it slow, upgrading if the pressure is not sufficient," Director Guan explained to him.
Shao Jialiang trusted Director Guan's words. Last time, during the endoscopy surgery performed before the patient came to their hospital, Director Guan was present and was very aware of the frailty of the patient's internal tissues, their tendency to bleed, and how an abrupt increase in pressure could possibly cause harm instead of treatment.
Now the operator pressed all the way up at once, perhaps as a new hand who doesn't quite understand and is too bold. Like some rash rookie drivers who only know to floor the gas pedal.
It puzzled people that Xie Wanying was moving the guidewire incredibly slowly earlier, only to suddenly speed up to a nerve-wracking pace now?
Yu Xuexian continued to stay silent while Shao Jialiang, having made a mistake before, dared not speak lightly, waiting for what was to come with an anxiety akin to riding a roller coaster. At any rate, after the balloon dilation, one could basically know whether the fistula could be found.
On the screen, the expanded anastomosis looked like a big black hole. Other people's eyes were searching for the small black hole, the location of the fistula.
"Here." The nurse closest to the monitor connected with the gastroscope shouted.
Everyone instantly rushed to the monitor like hearing news of a new continent discovery, eager to see.
"Where, where is it?"
People crowded, each stretching their necks and widening their eyes.
"Here." The nurse pointed to the spot on the screen.
Everyone paused, followed by the operator adjusting the gastroscope angle within the patient. On the screen, it was as if the final mysterious veil was being lifted, gradually, a clearer image of the fistula appeared in everyone's view.
Director Guan, a professional in the field, was the first struck speechless, as his mind fuzzily failing to pinpoint directions. Previously, he doubted the outcome could be achieved by max pressure in one go, yet now—this?
Could a fact that the expert couldn't achieve, an intern could? He was at a loss for words.
He was wrong. The person wasn't either too slow or too fast, neither lacking confidence nor boasting recklessly. The person was simply incredibly clear-minded, with organized movements comparable to those of seasoned doctors.
It appeared that this student was much more than having a robust mental stability. Without technical skill, how could a doctor maintain composure?
Director Guan's gaze snapped onto Xie Wanying's face, perhaps remembering this student for a lifetime. Encountering such talent in a medical career isn't easy, too many are mediocre.
Turning his head, Director Guan glanced at Yu Xuexian.
Yu Xuexian's mouth slightly curled up, as if aware all along of this result.
Director Guan sighed in his heart: the rising technical prowess of Guoxie's doctors is strong, both understanding their students thoroughly and the electronic gastroscope, otherwise how could they dare let go and eventually achieve such a good result?
As a teacher, without deep technical mastery, one wouldn't dare let students handle things. It's a clear and simple truth that teachers must support students' operations, being the fallback and responsibility lies with the teacher, not the student.
Meanwhile, a student's trust in their teacher is equally important. Xie Wanying focused wholeheartedly, fearless, because she relied on the trust she had in Senior Brother Yu, being present on site.
Xie Wanying knew how skilled Senior Brother Yu was; before letting her perform, Yu Xuexian had already predicted the reason behind Doctor Xuanwu's previous failure.
Predicting colleagues' failure reasons is simple for Yu Xuexian.
The director was there but didn't hit the crucial fistula. It was evident that balloon dilation wasn't sufficient, hence the precise position of the fistula couldn't be found from the endoscopy perspective.
Why couldn't they find it precisely? Was the previous doctor's vision not good enough? As a technical expert in the field, he surely understood the deeper logical link behind it. Because the attending doctor first emphasized the patient's constitution problem. The patient's wounds healed poorly, internal tissues either constantly ulcerated and bled, or continuously proliferated and hardened; the patient's internal tissue tolerance was too low. Even a little extensive operation might cause perforation.
