Chapter 354 - 185: Is There Anything You Can’t Do? I’m Worried It’s a Serious Problem
His understanding of electrocautery for hemostasis, the key points of operation, and especially his practical ability, have become incomparable to the past.
"Didn’t do it right just now; let’s do it again."
Li Jingsheng debrided the part that was just electrocoagulated, and fresh blood oozed out again.
He called for the Electric Coagulation Knife and focused on the bleeding source amid the worried gazes of those around him.
Buzz!
A wisp of white smoke still rose, albeit very thin.
Compared to the previous ’billowing smoke,’ the scene was astonishingly different, like day and night.
It was as if two completely different people were operating.
The previous electrocautery was done by a novice resident trainee, whereas now it was being performed by a master who had trained in the operating room for over a decade.
The bleeding had stopped.
The surrounding tissues were almost undamaged.
Efficient and precise.
Such an impressive level of electrocautery, even Dr. Ruan was amazed.
His level was about the same as Li Jingsheng’s, perhaps even slightly inferior.
"Is this messing with me?"
Dr. Qin’s lips twitched, eyes filled with frustration from being mocked.
Just now, he had publicly mocked Li Jingsheng for needing more practice, only to see him make a comeback in the next second with a stunning reversal.
That’s really not fair play.
"Dr. Qin, you are overthinking. Here, I was focused on the surgery. It was you who started picking my mistakes at the first sign of error. Actually, the first time, I just wasn’t familiar with your Electric Coagulation Knife."
Li Jingsheng responded calmly.
He certainly would not reveal the attribute panel, his biggest ’weapon.’
To find a reasonable excuse, being unfamiliar with this Electric Coagulation Knife was entirely convincing for everyone.
"Suturing, knotting, separating, hemostasis, you’re proficient in all of them. Is there anything you can’t do?"
Dr. Qin looked defeated.
No matter how strong he was, repeated setbacks would be enough to seriously undermine his confidence.
"I really can’t tell you that. I don’t even know my own capabilities."
As Li Jingsheng spoke, he was already swiftly performing intradermal suturing on the patient.
Master Level intradermal suturing was quite delightful, with fast speed and excellent results.
It would be even better if it could be elevated to the Minor Achievement level.
Professor Wu’s phone vibrated; he watched Li Jingsheng sew two stitches without any problem and then stepped down from the operating table with relief.
"I’ll go answer a call."
He went to the other end of the operating room to take the call.
Whether other doctors brought their phones was unclear, but the chief surgeon and circulating nurse usually carried phones.
In case of intraoperative problems needing reinforcements or notifying the blood bank for a transfusion, phones would be necessary.
Professor Wu answered the call and whispered two sentences, "I’ll be done here soon."
"Just wait for me at the usual place."
No wonder he was in such a hurry; indeed, he was meeting someone.
At such a late hour, the likelihood of seeing a male friend is smaller. Hence, it must be a female friend.
If it were an appointment with his wife at home, he wouldn’t need to be so sneaky, like a thief.
Given his nature, he’s probably up to no good with some young woman again.
Is it a nurse, a female doctor, or a woman from society? That remains unclear.
Every man pursues different things; some men just have a taste for this.
...
Eight minutes later, Li Jingsheng completed the suturing task.
Knotting.
Upon inspecting the sutured incision, it was nearly perfect, with no discernible flaws.
The cut edges were tightly aligned, and the suturing tension was just right.
As long as properly cared for and without the patient deliberately aggravating the newly sutured incision, it should heal as a Class A wound in a few days.
Once healed, it would likely leave only a tiny scar.
To achieve scarless suturing, Li Jingsheng is still quite far off; it’s simply beyond reach for now.
He checked his attribute gains: electrocautery proficiency +1, superficial debridement proficiency +1, oblique knot proficiency +2, intradermal suturing proficiency +10, life points +107.
Another hundred life points reward.
It should have been obtained through electrocautery for hemostasis.
His life point balance is 183 points, the more he uses, the more it increases. It’s like a limitless resource.
Of course, such good fortune isn’t an everyday occurrence.
Life point rewards from electrocautery or ligament repair aren’t available every time, only for the first practice do they grant a hundred life point bonus.
And this requires more advanced surgical tasks.
If it’s just ordinary wrist skin suturing, it’s hard to get any extra rewards.
At most, thorough suturing will result in slightly increased proficiency.
"Professor Wu, we’ve wrapped up here. Could you please check?"
Ruan Xiaoqin was too shameless.
This statement clearly had the intention of stealing credit.
It was clearly Li Jingsheng who painstakingly completed the suturing.
Every department has such cunning individuals.
Fortunately, Li Jingsheng didn’t care and never intended to work under Professor Wu as a doctor.
He was just here guest-starring for a bit.
It was only because of Ou Qinglan.
Of course, if called upon again, he would definitely come if he had the time.
The opportunity to earn life points in the operating room was just too tempting.
Both of these procedures were considered ’minor surgeries.’
If faced with a high-difficulty major surgery, completing several critical tasks could earn him a fortune.
Professor Wu pocketed his phone and glanced over casually.
"Hmm, sutured nicely. If there are no issues, transfer the patient out! Thank you all for your hard work today, you’re off duty!"
