Chapter 203: Next time, let her come to our place.

“0.5, and it still didn’t fall out,” Zhou Junpeng said, the latter surprised him the most.

The entire tube was inserted to prevent the venting tube from falling out of the patient, causing failure and the need for reinsertion.

This meant Xie Wanying’s securing was exceptionally good, for which she also paid a price; in the middle of it, to protect the patient, she scraped her hand and bruised her ribs.

Fu Xinheng turned and asked, “Did her wound desquamate?”

“It should be healed by now. I haven’t seen her hand when eating, holding plates or spoons, showing any discomfort,” Zhou Junpeng answered.

“Did Huang Zhilei palpate her spleen?”

“Didn’t ask. But he probably did. I know him, he can be irritable at times, but, he does what needs to be done. Otherwise, why would Teacher Cao mentor him?”

No worries then. Fu Xinheng thought, it seemed she might be a prodigy. Especially considering Xie Wanying’s performance today, her thinking was incredibly fast, her associative capacity exceptionally strong, faster than that of us teachers.

“Next time their class is scheduled to come to the hospital for training, if she comes to our department, let her join our team,” Fu Xinheng instructed.

When medical students come to departments for internships, they must be divided into groups to follow the teachers. Who the medical students learn on-duty tasks from is arranged by someone. Typically, the head of the department delegates this authority as needed.

In neurosurgery, Cao Yong is in charge. In thoracic surgery, of course, Fu Xinheng is in charge.

After lunch was rest time, Xie Wanying didn’t go to the on-call room nor did she return to school, she thumped downstairs to find her senior sister.

If some departments have no surgeries at noon, they’re not busy. But the anesthesiology department is different; every year, on three hundred sixty-five days, the chances of being not busy at noon can be counted on one hand. This is because in large hospitals, there are always emergency surgeries and patients who need to be prepared for surgery in the afternoon or surgeries that can’t be finished in the morning.

How strenuous is it to be an anesthesiologist? They need to start preparing more than half an hour before the surgeons.

For instance, if the surgeons start work at eight in the morning, nurses usually send the patients to the operating room half an hour earlier, and anesthesiologists start preparing at seven o’clock.

However, anesthesiologists are held in high esteem in the minds of the patients needing surgeries. Common folks often pass down by word of mouth, “When having surgery, don’t ever offend the anesthesiologist; otherwise, it will be excruciating.”

Becoming an anesthesiologist was purely accidental for Lau Jingyun. Her scores were sufficient during her college entrance exams, and she originally wanted to be an internal medicine doctor, but the medical college put her in the anesthesiology track during the enrollment process. All things considered, her scores were slightly lower than her peers.

What Lau Jingyun didn’t expect was that in the course of her learning, she eventually felt that being an anesthesiologist was very noble, far superior to being an internal medicine doctor.

Especially when some patients were in excruciating pain, the role of anesthesiology was immense.

It’s true that people can die from pain.

But to stay at one of the top-tier, class-three hospitals in the country as an anesthesiologist is too difficult, like a dream.

Lau Jingyun only knew that last year her home hospital’s anesthesiology department had recruited just one anesthesiology graduate. The year before, they recruited two – fewer and fewer each year. Whether they would recruit one this year or not, no one knew.

Some anesthesiology students, seeing the unfavorable trend, started sending their resumes to other hospitals. But Lau Jingyun was different; she loved her alma mater’s hospital tremendously and dreamed of working there.

What’s so great about the alma mater’s hospital? The teachers and seniors there, as well as elder brothers and sisters, each and every one of them has outstanding abilities.
