When the operation lasted for 20 hours, Liu Miqiao took the initiative to stop and said, "Let's take a rest."
Eat something, go to the toilet, change gloves, and let Zhu Yaguang take a nap.
The doctors in our hospital are already exhausted.
Spine surgery has never taken more than 10 hours. Now I have done it for 20 hours and am only halfway done. From this aspect alone, it is already amazing.
The doctors in our hospital were talking about the shifts. They were working as second assistant, third assistant, and fourth assistant. They originally expected to learn a few tricks, but unexpectedly, they found out that they were too unfathomable, so they entered the university classroom with primary school students.
If you can’t understand it, you can’t even learn it, and it takes so long that no one wants to persevere.
There is one exception, Director Luo. He is the most skilled person in this hospital. During normal spinal surgery, the spinal cord is not touched. If there is bleeding in the spinal cord, he still has to stop the bleeding. If there is foreign matter in the spinal cord, he still has to remove it. If there is necrosis,
The spinal cord must also be cleaned.
It's just that he didn't dare to do this kind of nerve matching today. However, he was different from others. He saw the way, found it useful, and will use it in the future.
He doesn't want to leave.
He was very tired, but he still wanted to persevere. He grabbed a lunch box, drank a cup of thick boiled milk, ate two bananas, and finally drank a cup of strong tea.
Drinking strong tea is to refresh yourself. Strong tea contains a lot of caffeine, which can stimulate the brain.
Zhu Yaguang was sitting in the corner and fast asleep. If anyone sent him a WeChat Moment, it would surely touch many people.
After sleeping for about 10 minutes, Zhu Yaguang woke up as if he had turned on an alarm clock.
At this time, Zhu Yaguang's eyes were full of vitality.
He has already practiced it.
Accompanying Liu Muqiao during the 40-hour surgery was no longer the same as climbing Mount Everest.
He is in high spirits.
Director Luo also had enough to eat and drink.
The other two newcomers have not experienced the hardship and are also very motivated.
The operation begins again.
"Do you often have to undergo such long operations?" Director Luo asked curiously.
Being a surgeon is very hard, and it is not unusual to perform 3 or 4 operations a day. However, even if it is 3 or 4 operations, it takes more than ten hours, and you can still take a break between each operation.
However, today's surgery, Liu Miqiao said from the beginning, would take 40 hours, which is equivalent to two days and two nights. Doctors often go through this kind of surgery, can their bodies bear it?
Liu Muqiao didn't answer. He generally didn't want to chat, especially with strangers.
Zhu Yaguang said: "Spinal cord surgery takes a long time, almost dozens of hours each time. In addition, Dr. Liu's plastic surgery often takes 40 hours."
Director Luo thought he heard wrongly and said: "Which Dr. Liu?"
Zhu Yaguang said: "That's him."
Director Luo lost his composure and said, "He? He also does plastic surgery?"
Zhu Yaguang said arrogantly: "Yes, his surgery is very clever. His plastic surgery has surpassed the most powerful doctors in the cold country."
Director Luo and several other doctors are really not calm anymore.
Don’t encourage people to study medicine, don’t encourage people to study law, these are the two most popular sentences recently.
Studying medicine is very hard. For seven or eight years, doctoral students in the last ten years have read more books than other people, and memorized the contents by heart. The hardships of these ten years alone are more than what some people have to endure in a lifetime.
There is more suffering.
However, even after these ten years, it is still impossible to be a brilliant doctor. It will take a lifetime of hard work to perform a difficult operation.
For example, in spinal surgery, it usually takes 30 years of hard work to reach Director Luo's level.
But now, in front of us, this young man has completely overturned the previous understanding. He should have performed the two most difficult surgeries of cervical cord surgery and plastic surgery in just a few years. Such a person is still
Human?
Director Luo is 52 years old this year. He graduated from college at the age of 22, became an attending physician at the age of 27, an associate chief physician at the age of 35, and a chief physician at the age of 46. In 30 years, he became the most powerful spine surgeon in Shicheng Hospital.

He knows how hard it is, how difficult the operation is, and how risky it is. He has saved many people, and at the same time, he has also had many medical accidents.
After a 36-year-old man suffered a trauma, he underwent an operation. His spinal cord was infected after the operation, and it was also a fungal infection. He is still in bed today, and the hospital has not lost any money.
He deeply understands that for a doctor to master a certain skill, a lifetime is not too long.
However, the man in front of me is only in his early 20s, but he is a master of two subjects.
How can he be calm?
Afterwards, he was surprised one after another, and Zhu Yaguang introduced some of Liu Miqiao's skills.
Are there such people in this world?
"Zhu Yaguang." Liu Miqiao reminded him and warned him.
"Refresh yourself." Zhu Yaguang explained.
"Do the surgery seriously, you have already missed two stitches." Liu Miqiao warned Zhu Yaguang.
Zhu Yaguang also knew that two of the needles were slightly off. His accuracy rate was not 100%, but about 95%.
It is of course best to be very precise, but if the nerve bundle suturing can reach more than 90%, it will not be a big deal, and Liu Muqiao emphasized that it is very precise.
His own accuracy is 99.9%.
Zhu Yaguang made a face, stopped talking, and operated seriously.
Liu Muqiao has very high requirements for neural anastomosis. Although the accuracy rate is above 90%, it is considered qualified, but he hopes to achieve perfection.
The nervous system is a very delicate organ, and a slight error will have a huge impact.
Of course, it may not have much impact on the large movements of the limbs, but even a 1% deviation in fine movements will have serious consequences.
What Liu Muqiao pursues is this 1% accuracy.
The cervical spinal cord controls all movements, sensations, and reflexes between movements and sensations below the neck. Normally, every nerve is point to point, line to line, without the slightest difference.
After injury, it is difficult to achieve an accuracy of more than 90% for nerve anastomosis. Even if each nerve bundle can be aligned, it is still difficult for the nerve fibers inside to be accurately connected.
There are many cases of docking errors.
For example, if the sensory nerve connection is wrong, it may appear that the little toe is itchy, but it is actually mistaken for a caster.
It’s not a big problem if you scratch the wrong itch.
If the positional sensory nerves are mismatched, the feedback to the muscle control nerves will be troublesome, resulting in unstable standing and imbalance of balance, which is a high probability event.
A person's balance is very important. According to statistics, the number one cause of death for the elderly is falls. If an 80-year-old man falls, 50% of them will die from other diseases.
Therefore, the spinal cord anastomosis should be as precise as possible.
Zhu Yaguang has an accuracy of 95%, which is amazing, but in Liu Miqiao's eyes, he still has a long way to go.
