After hearing the noise outside the house subsided, Su Mei stood up and came out. She said:
"Come here and bring in the stretcher that brought Li Yuan back during the day!"
Li Yuan's vital signs have stabilized a lot and have reached the basic surgical indicators. Su Mei wants to perform surgery on Li Yuan immediately.
This surgery was more difficult than any surgery Su Mei had ever done before, because without the assistance of any modern equipment, she could only rely on her own experience.
Soon, Huo Jianguo asked someone to carry Li Yuan to the next door.
Seeing her son being carried away, Aunt Wang cried so hard that her eyes blurred with tears. She grabbed Su Mei's hand and begged her:
"I leave everything to you, Su Mei."
As a surgeon, Su Mei had been asked by patients' families countless times in modern times. She patted Aunt Wang's back very calmly.
At this moment, Su Mei was able to come over and take a look at the operating room built by Huo Jianguo.
She unexpectedly discovered that the operating room built by Huo Jianguo looked more like what she had arranged. She didn't know where he found a brand new tent and set it up in the room.
There was also plastic film on the floor. Except that it had not been disinfected and sprayed, this temporary operating room already had a somewhat sterile environment.
Although he has never eaten pork, Huo Jianguo has seen pigs running away. He has been injured before and was sent to the operating room for rescue, so he has some impressions of the furnishings in the operating room.
After entering the door, Su Mei did not go directly into the tent. Instead, she rinsed her hands with alcohol outside and then put on rubber gloves.
Then she handed the alcohol to Huo Jianguo and said:
"You also need to disinfect your hands. I need two assistants to help. You can call someone else besides you!"
Huo Jianguo took the alcohol and disinfected silently without speaking. He knew that the doctor could not complete the operation independently without help.
"Master, let me go!" Xie Li took the initiative to stand in front of Huo Jianguo and asked to come in for help.
This time Huo Jianguo rejected Xie Li:
"I know you have a good relationship with Li Yuan and I'm anxious, but you've been busy all day and your body is too tired and it's easy to make mistakes. Let Jiang Wei do it!"
After that, Huo Jianguo handed Jiang Wei the alcohol, and Xie Li could only retreat behind with some disappointment.
After entering the operating room, Su Mei first performed some examinations on Li Yuan, and then she recorded on a piece of paper:
"The body temperature is 36, the respiration is 22, the pulse rate is 75, the blood pressure is 110, the heart rate is 60, the vital signs are basically normal, and surgery is possible."
After doing the most basic preoperative examination possible, Su Mei gave Li Yuan an anesthetic test and confirmed that he had no allergic reaction to the anesthetic before giving him intravenous anesthesia.
After seeing the pain on Li Yuan's face lessening, Su Mei knew that the anesthetic had taken effect. She directly picked up a long-handled scalpel, lit an alcohol lamp, and began to burn the knife on the lamp.
Seeing Su Mei's actions, Huo Jianguo wanted to ask her what she was going to do. He had already wanted to ask this question when Su Mei took the alcohol lamp from the clinic, but in the end he was afraid of disturbing Su Mei's surgery. , so I chose to shut up.
Soon, the knife in Su Mei's hand was roasted red. She put the knife on the operating tray aside, and then baked five more in succession.
Then, she held the knife and began to cut the skin tissue around the stick.
The smell of barbecue suddenly wafted into the room.
Hearing this smell, the usual calmness on Huo Jianguo's face suddenly disappeared. He opened his eyes wide and shouted: "Su Mei, what are you doing?"
"You have to find the blood vessels around the stick!" Su Mei explained very professionally:
"This = there is a small branch of an artery near the wound. He lost too much blood and fell unconscious. We need to find this blood vessel to avoid secondary injuries when pulling out the stick."
"Look for blood vessels, just blood vessels. Why did you burn him with a knife?"
"What's all the fuss about?" Su Mei said while changing the knife and continuing to press on the wound:
"Blanching the meat is the fastest way to stop bleeding. I did this to avoid further bleeding. He can't bleed anymore, and the bleeding is small, which makes it easier for me to find blood vessels."
In order to prevent surgical bleeding, modern surgery has even invented the electric knife. Once the operation is performed, the operating room is filled with the smell of barbecue, which Su Mei has long been accustomed to.
While talking, Su Mei had already found the artery.
The blood vessel was not broken, but a hole was scratched by the wooden stick. As soon as it was cut, it started to bleed out.
When the wooden stick was pulled out, the blood vessels would definitely be completely broken. Su Mei injected vasopressin into both ends of the blood vessels. This drug can coagulate the blood in a short period of time and effectively stop bleeding.
After injecting the hemostatic medicine, Su Mei looked at Huo Jianguo and Jiang Wei and said:
"Two of you, one is responsible for fixing his legs, and the other is here to pull out the wooden stick from his thigh."
In order to prevent hypotension and shock during the extraction process, Su Mei injected Li Yuan with a dose of diazepam in advance.
"Should we just pull it out? Will there be severe bleeding? We don't have blood to give him for first aid." Huo Jianguo glanced at Su Mei hesitantly.
He has been in the army for many years and has never seen his comrades injured, so he is very aware of some emergencies that may occur during surgery.
Su Mei’s face was very calm:
"No problem. Hemostatic drugs have been injected into the artery. Just be responsible for pulling it out. I have a way to deal with bleeding in other parts."
Seeing Su Mei's calm face, Huo Jianguo and Jiang Wei looked at each other, and then Jiang Wei went over and grabbed Li Yuan's leg. Huo Jianguo glanced at Su Mei, took a deep breath, and put his hand on Li Yuan's thigh. He pulled out the wooden stick.
Suddenly, Li Yuan's thigh was filled with blood.
Blood spattered Huo Jianguo's face, making his heart tremble.
When he was about to speak, he saw Su Mei holding a freshly roasted knife and pressing it on Li Yuan's thigh. The smell of meat wafted from the room.
The usual calmness on Huo Jianguo's face suddenly disappeared. He widened his eyes and shouted, "Is this your method?"
"What else?" Su Mei glanced at Huo Jianguo and said calmly: "You just saw it once. I cut it with a red-hot knife. I thought you were used to it."
Huo Jianguo: "......"
He's not used to it. What kind of barbaric methods are these?
Su Mei had no time to answer what Huo Jianguo was thinking. She kept using the scalpel to burn the wound until the bleeding subsided. Then she took a deep breath and officially started preparing for the operation.
Next, what she had to do was the most difficult thing. She had to use a scalpel to cut open the wound on her leg bit by bit, clean up the residue inside, and then sew it up.
Su Mei was most worried about fractures. If there were fractures, she could only cut them open, pick out the bone fragments, and then sew them up to save Li Yuan's life first.
Only when the snow melts can Li Yuan be sent to the city for bone-setting surgery, because there are no bone-setting tools here. However, if the delay is too long, it is very likely that Li Yuan will be disabled for life.
Another thing is that Su Mei is now incising the skin layer by layer, and must be extra careful not to damage important blood vessels and nerves.
The stick was inserted in a clever position, just enough to avoid important organs and nerves, but both of them were near the wound, so Su Mei had to be extra careful when performing the knife.
In an instant, Su Mei's aura changed. She lowered her head and cut one by one with a serious and focused expression. Each cut was extremely straight and perfect.
While inspecting it accurately and carefully, she asked Huo Jianguo for surgical instruments.
Before the operation, Su Mei had already laid out the surgical tools. Because she was afraid that Huo Jianguo wouldn't know what was inside, she always used the corresponding ones instead.
While handing something to Su Mei, Huo Jianguo looked at Su Mei's back in confusion. He thought he had read countless people and could see through everyone's true face hidden under the skin.
But this Su Mei, Huo Jianguo felt that he had completely misjudged her. After living under the same roof for a year, he had never seen that Su Mei could have such a side.
Especially when she asked him for tools, she could clearly remember where the tools she needed were placed without even looking up.
This is actually not a difficult problem for Su Mei, because the order of placement of surgical instruments during the operation is uniformly stipulated, and Su Mei has already memorized these things by heart.
Huo Jianguo was responsible for delivering the tools, while Jiang Wei was responsible for helping Su Mei bake the knife.
Every incision she made was made with a roasted red scalpel, which made it easier to stop bleeding and facilitate observation.
Smelling the scent of meat in the room, Huo Jianguo felt that his future was bleak. Su Mei's treatment methods were something he had never heard of before.
At this time, Su Mei had already cut to the very center.
Fortunately for her, Li Yuan's bones were not broken, but there were only some minor cracks.
As long as the bone fragments are cleaned out, sutured, and fixed from the outside, his legs will slowly grow back.
After cleaning up the residue, Su Mei sewed up the wound stitch by stitch.
Then she asked Huo Jianguo and Jiang Wei to help Li Yuan lie on his side, then cut open the wounds on the back half and sutured them one by one.
Perhaps because her technique was too perfect, or because her expression was too meticulous, Huo Jianguo's confused heart began to settle down little by little.
Two hours later, Su Mei straightened up in pain. She glanced at the wound that she had stitched up with her fat hands in disgust, then went to check on Li Yuan's condition, and then showed a particularly ugly expression.
Huo Jianguo had been looking at Su Mei. When he saw the expression on her face, his heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"My waist is so sore!" Su Mei stretched and yawned again.
This answer almost made Huo Jianguo pull out his gun and kill him: "I asked what happened to Li Yuan?"
"There's nothing wrong with him!" Su Mei glanced at Huo Jianguo strangely and said casually:
"The operation was successful."
Although the equipment for this operation was relatively backward, because of the clever positioning of the wooden stick and Li Yuan was lucky enough, it was not difficult for Su Mei in the end.
It was just a minor surgery, and Su Mei felt that she was out of touch with those modern instruments and lost her confidence, which led to a false alarm.
Su Mei thought it was a minor operation, but Huo Jianguo didn't think so. He heard Su Mei say it was successful, but he still felt uneasy.
He walked slowly to Li Yuan, personally checked his breathing and pulse, and after confirming that Li Yuan was indeed fine and that the wound on his thigh had been treated beautifully, he let out a deep breath.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Huo Jianguo said thank you to Su Mei in a heavy tone.
Su Mei thought to herself that this should be an opportunity to gain favor. Maybe if she did it well, Huo Jianguo would temporarily give up the idea of divorcing her, so she straightened her expression and changed her look to a gentle and virtuous one. By Huo Jianguo:
"I'm very happy that I can share your worries. I hope I can have such an... opportunity again in the future."
Huo Jianguo heard that Su Mei was testing. He looked at the face that was too fat to see the facial features, and the obvious hypocritical look on her face, and nodded very coldly:
"When you get divorced, don't make trouble. Just be obedient and get the divorce certificate from me. You are sharing the biggest worry for me."
As soon as he thinks of what Su Mei did to him, Huo Jianguo's determination to divorce instantly becomes as indestructible as a diamond.
After speaking, Huo Jianguo walked out with a cold expression.
"Hey, it's really unkind." Su Mei exhaled helplessly, and the hope she had just raised was shattered.
Harmful.
