Chapter 367 - 175: This Residency Training Is Not Ordinary, Autologous Blood Transfusion_3

The patient's current condition is more suited for oral tracheal intubation.

At least it's a bit more comfortable than nasal insertion.

The patient is already restless and anxious, and getting him to cooperate is not easy.

Following the completion of the intubation, Zhou Can began skillfully adjusting the various parameters of the breathing machine. The three months spent in the Intensive Care Medicine Department were not in vain; he was now handling these instruments with ease.

His experience was also quite profound.

He could adjust the various parameters clearly and confidently.

There are no wasted journeys in life; every step counts.

During his three-month formal training in the Intensive Care Medicine Department, he discovered the immense benefits afterward.

There were many occasions where this experience came in handy.

Moreover, the high levels of tension he had endured while working in the intensive care ward served as excellent tempering for his mentality.

"All set!"

Zhou Can calmly retreated to the most inconspicuous observer's position beneath the operating table.

The intubation procedure just performed had earned him 1 point of experience in implantation technique.

As long as he stayed in the operating room, he could always pick up something.

"Damn good!"

"That trainee's operation just now was just too stylish!"

"So tracheal intubation can be this simple, huh! I have to try it next time!"

The other medical staff were completely dumbfounded.

Zhou Can's performance was very eye-catching, even creating the illusion that tracheal intubation was particularly easy.

"The anesthesia has been successfully administered, we can proceed with the surgery."

As Dr. Guan's words fell, the chief surgeon stood at his position by the patient's side and made an incision between the ribs, cutting layer by layer until the chest cavity membrane was visible.

There was already a lot of blood accumulated inside.

"First, let's suction out some of the accumulated blood. The bleeding point should be located between the ribs."

As the chief surgeon spoke, he continued the surgery on the patient.

He was quickly

The assisting doctor glared at Zhou Can, signaling him not to invite trouble.

The instrument nurse looked at Zhou Can with sympathy.

This new doctor really had a thick skull; he had already been punished during the previous surgery, and now he was sticking his nose in again.

How could a trainee direct procedures during a surgery performed by senior doctors?

"The patient is losing a lot of blood and we don't have enough plasma prepared; we can do autologous blood transfusion!"

Zhou Can suggested another approach.

In some major bleeding surgeries, if the blood loss is uncontaminated, autologous blood transfusion is entirely possible.

Tuya Hospital surely has such equipment.

Blood salvage machines can collect, filter, separate, wash, and purify the patient's blood lost during surgery and then reinfuse it back into the patient. Autologous transfusion poses much lower risks than receiving blood from another person.

Allogeneic transfusion might lead to infections like hepatitis, HIV, etc.

Besides, allogeneic transfusion can suppress the patient's immune function, increase the risk of postoperative wound infection, and is also not conducive to the healing of bodily wounds.

"Bring the blood salvage machine here, immediately!"

Upon hearing this, the chief surgeon Doctor Long made a decisive call.

The patient was bleeding profusely and was in critical condition which had made him somewhat confused.

Zhou Can's words were like a wake-up call.

"Are you really sure the bleeding point is under this rib?" Doctor Long found this inconspicuous trainee somewhat inscrutable.

Helping Dr. Guan with the tracheal intubation and setting up the breathing machine had already revealed exceptional strength.

And the suggestion for autologous blood transfusion he made in a critical moment was also extremely clever.
