When the Doctor Uses A Hack

At this remark, everyone suddenly looked up at Li Baoshan!

Li Jianwei’s eyes sparkled, “Who?”

Li Baoshan said, “It’s a junior doctor in our department, named Chen Cang. His suturing foundation is pretty solid, I know that, and he has very nimble hands. I think we can let him try, it won’t delay us more than a few minutes.”

Having said this, Li Baoshan sighed, “Anyway… we don’t have any other options right now.”

Li Baoshan’s words plunged everyone into brief contemplation.

Li Jianwei nodded, “Let him come!”

The moment Chen Cang entered the operating room, he immediately felt the seriousness and solemnity that enveloped the surroundings, making it hard to breathe!

Even the gazes from several department heads carried an intensity, and there were even traces of fear in them.

He strode toward the operating table, hands placed in front of his chest, and as soon as he got there, he was instantly shocked!

What kind of surgery was this!

This was the first time Chen Cang encountered such a horrific surgery and had never seen such a ghastly scene; the innards in the abdominal cavity were clearly visible, all the organs presented before his eyes, vessels exposed, and even the pulsation of the arteries could be clearly seen.

Through the torn diaphragm, the faint beating of the heart could still be glimpsed beneath the newly propped-up artificial thorax.

It seemed like a struggle for life, but also like a release of fear…

Chen Cang couldn’t help but hold his breath, his expression turning grave.

Li Baoshan, muffled by his mask, said in a deep voice, “Come over here!”

Chen Cang nodded and walked over slowly.

The department heads all stopped their work to observe the slightly green eyes before them.

His surgical gown was tightly fastened, and with the surgical cap and mask, only his eyes were exposed.

Yet, even so, Chen Cang could see expectation and hope in the eyes of each director.

Even the chief surgeon, Zhang Youfu, with his broad face and thick glasses, was shimmering with hope.

Tao Zi said, “Little Chen, I am entrusting you with a task now. There is a very important mission at hand. Don’t be nervous, your job is very simple. See the splenic artery there? It’s likely to rupture soon. The patient must undergo vascular anastomosis, but we are very limited in time, 90 seconds!”

“That is, within 90 seconds, you must complete the vascular suturing. If it’s not done, the patient… will be in great danger.”

At that moment, Chen Cang suddenly saw a question mark appear above Tao Zi’s head!

[Ding! Advanced NPC Tao Zi has issued a task, requiring the completion of the splenic artery suturing task within 90 seconds! Task Reward: 1. Obtain the Vascular Suturing Technique effect: Meticulous.)

Chen Cang took a deep breath!

The task was formidable!

90 seconds, or a minute and a half, to complete the vascular suturing was something unbelievable to many people.

Chen Cang had seen the suturing of a major artery take two and a half minutes at night.

90 seconds!

It was extremely difficult!

At that time, everyone was staring at Chen Cang with complex looks in their eyes.

None of the directors spoke a word at that moment, and the instrument nurse at the side was also full of panic and unease.

The only sounds echoing in his ears were the continuous beeping of the cardiopulmonary bypass machine and the monitor.

Each beep urged him on.

Ringing on and on.

The Master Instructor already wrote all of the patient’s injuries on the virtual screen by now, giving Chen Cang an overall understanding of the patient.

But sometimes, ignorance is bliss. If it was simply left to Chen Cang to suture the vessel, he might not be so nervous.

However, at this point, it was impossible not to be tense!

Whether he could succeed was directly related to the patient’s recovery after the rescue.

Right then, Chen Cang suddenly remembered he still had seven skill points!

The Vascular Suturing Technique was at an intermediate level, and without a second thought, Chen Cang immediately upgraded it!

After consuming four skill points.

[Ding! Congratulations, your Vascular Suturing Technique has been elevated to an advanced level; you’ve acquired the effect: Fast Suturing!)

This crisp sound was like a savior to Chen Cang!

Fast Suturing!

Fast Suturing!

Chen Cang’s heart surged with excitement.

What kind of unbelievable luck!

Seeing Chen Cang staring blankly at the blood vessel, everyone was slightly stunned and sighed.

It was too difficult.

Such a burden should not fall on the shoulders of this young man.

How old was he?

Li Baoshan couldn’t help but ask, “Chen, how confident are you?”

Chen Cang took a deep breath, “I don’t know… but I want to try!”

Indeed, even with fast suturing, Chen Cang knew his own speed very well.

How fast?

How can you know without trying!

Just at this moment, suddenly Tao Zi’s eyes narrowed!

“Hemostatic forceps! Tie off the vessel, it’s about to burst!”

The scrub nurse hurriedly passed the hemostatic forceps, and Tao Zi clamped the splenic artery in time, turning to Chen Cang, “There’s no time left, can you do it?”

Chen Cang nodded: “1 can!”

He turned and took the suture needle and thread from the nurse.

At this moment, Tao Zi and Li Jianwei had prepared the hemostatic forceps, ready to tie off at any moment!

Li Jianwei was a bit nervous, even his breathing became rapid, “Say when you start, and we will stop the bleeding, you hurry up!”

Chen Cang’s eyes flashed with rapid analysis guided by an expert, providing a very precise, fast, and effective suturing plan!

Chen Cang nodded, “Tie off!”

At his command, they both quickly stopped the bleeding!

Chen Cang picked up the needle and thread and began suturing rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the needle and thread accurately chose the best entry points to start!

He first placed evenly spaced triangular anchor stitches on the circumference of the blood vessel and pulling on each stitch created an equilateral triangle. Tao Zi’s eyes brightened!

Triangle suturing method!?

The choice was good, but… the triangle suturing method was a bit more difficult than the two-point technique and took more time. However, the benefit was very obvious!

That is, for such damaged vascular walls, after tensioning, they could form an equilateral triangle, which would undoubtedly increase the stability and firmness of the vascular wall!

Chen Cang’s choice was very correct, but Tao Zi could not be happy.

Because it meant that time might not be enough, right?

For a moment, all eyes were on Chen Cang. At this moment, on the operating table, he was the most heart-wrenching link for everyone.

If there was a mistake… or even a delay, everyone’s efforts would be wasted.

Chen Cang was utterly focused, holding his breath!

A 90-second countdown began silently in his mind…

Tick… tock… tick… tock…

Chen Cang, with his pinky, lifted the two anchor stitches and continuously sutured the front third of the edge between the blood vessels without causing injury.

He then quickly aligned the inner linings of both ends of the vessels, with the needle and thread quickly making their way through.

At this very moment, suturing became especially crucial!

Vascular suturing was difficult, and Chen Cang was the least experienced among them because every stitch during suturing had to align the inner linings of both ends while properly tightening—but not too tight, as to not narrow the lumen.

In everyone’s minds, the time silently ticked away…

70… 60…

Chen Cang had already completed a part, tying the suture with the anchor stitches. Using the same technique, he sutured the third on the other side, then flipped the two vessels over to reveal the back third of the vessel wall, which he also sutured continuously.

Finally!

Chen Cang gave the order, “Release the hemostatic forceps!”

Li Jianwei and Tao Zi’s hands were already trembling. It was the first time they felt 90 seconds to be so endlessly long and yet so brief.

Everyone watched as the blood flowed copiously, and a sense of joy surged within them!

He had succeeded!

This young man had really done it.

Incredible.

Li Jianwei blurted out, “Awesome! Truly awesome!”

The surrounding chiefs finally let out a sigh of relief!
