Reborn in the 70s as a military doctor and meets a special soldier

Although he has been working hard to improve his practical experience these days, it is limited to traumatic bandaging, dealing with some simple clinical diseases, and surgical operations... which were all exposed during the internship.

And at that time, he was just an observing intern, and he had only been a fourth assistant or third assistant at most. But to put it bluntly, he just helped the instructor pass the scalpel and the like, and he had never used it at all.

Second assistant, that’s different. This is a job that really requires practice.

However, Director Lei also said that all the people were on missions. At this time, no matter whether he could do it or not, he had to bite the bullet.

Liu Yu wanted to cry but couldn't, and didn't know what to do.

Song Wei saw Liu Yu's anxiety and comforted her: "Everyone has a first time. Strictly speaking, it was your first time to deal with the injured just now, so you are already an experienced doctor, so relax.

And since Dr. Zhang is with me, there will be no problem.

However, you must be careful not to prick your hand during surgery. "

Liu Tao, who was still nervous at first, couldn't laugh or cry.

He thought Song Wei would remind him not to prick the patient's body, but she actually said not to prick his own fingers...

"Am I that outrageous?"

Liu Yu's nervousness was dissipated.

Song Wei still looked serious.

"I'm not joking. This is a very serious matter. You must be assured of it!"

Today's operating tables do not have rubber gloves, protective masks, goggles, etc. Even doctors' awareness of protection is not rigorous. Although pricking a finger is a small thing, the risk behind it is fatal.

She wasn't kidding.

However, Liu Yu obviously didn't take it seriously. After all, the current medical level is underdeveloped, and people's understanding of infection caused by surgical exposure is not that deep.

Not only young doctors, but also doctors of the older generation.

Song Wei suddenly felt that there was a long way to go.

The experience of modern medicine was gained with blood and tears, but she didn't want them to make the same mistakes again.

In short, it is very important to live a new life, not to mention making achievements, but at least to let her fellow travelers avoid some avoidable risks.

A long road to reform awaits her, but she is not afraid and is ready to fight for a lifetime.

"I'm serious, just listen to me. I'll tell you the reasons slowly later."

Song Wei patted Liu Yu's shoulder solemnly.

Liu Yu could sense Song Wei's seriousness, so he put away his idle talk and nodded seriously.

"I know, I'll be careful."

In this way, the two of them followed Director Lei and Doctor Zhang, while Lu Jiu was assigned to the head nurse.

He didn't think anything of it. Anyway, his injuries were really not serious and he wouldn't bother the experts.

Song Wei also knew the priorities of the matter. Although Lu Jiu was the person she valued, she had to watch the serious patients come at this time.

After all, in addition to being Song Wei, she is also a doctor.

Doctors have the professional ethics of doctors.

Moreover, she also trusts her companions and obeys their arrangements.

Director Lei and Song Wei were in charge of patients whose legs were broken.

His calf was hit by a steel frame and suffered a severe fracture.

It is worth mentioning that the field hospital has the only X-ray machine in the entire southwest region.

Speaking of the X-ray machine, there are many stories about it. It has saved many military generals and harmed many people, but I won’t go into details here. In short, it is very convenient to have an X-ray machine here at this time.

Song Wei immediately asked for X-rays to be taken on the patient. If she could confirm the fracture inside, things would be easier to handle.

At this time, Song Wei and Director Lei were discussing the X-ray.

I saw in the film that the bones were severely broken and dislocated.

"The situation is a bit tricky." Director Lei frowned: "Do you know how we usually solve this kind of situation?"

Song Wei shook her head sincerely.

“It’s either saw off or take a chance.”

"What is luck?"

"We administer medicine as normal, but whether it will be cured or not depends entirely on his personal physical condition. If he is unlucky and the bone does not grow well or other complications occur, he will have to amputate the leg in the end."

There's nothing you can do about it. Connecting bones is not like removing bullet casings.

The biggest role of the X-ray machine at this time for them is to help soldiers determine the location of the cartridge case and remove the cartridge case.

As for fractures, although it is true that knowing the extent of the fracture makes it easier to treat the wound, it is only a better understanding of the extent of the fracture, which does not help much in surgical treatment.

Surgery is still a medical problem, so they can only do their best and let fate dictate.

Song Wei didn't care much: "I have an immature idea."

In fact, it was not her idea. This was the fruit of the development of medicine in later generations, but these technologies would not appear until decades later.

It is indeed unsolvable now, but for future generations, there is huge room for maneuver.

For example, relying on reduction plate internal fixation or intramedullary pin internal fixation, etc.

Of course, there is currently no factory that can make these reduction plates and intramedullary needles, but the medical logic is universal.

"The patient's fracture is severely dislocated, and it is very difficult to heal with conservative treatment. Even if it heals, walking will be a problem in the future. My suggestion is to perform surgical reduction and external fixation."

After all, internal fixation is not possible yet, so external fixation is the only option.

Although it is risky, it is better than direct fixation.

Song Wei's words made the whole place fall silent, and both doctors and nurses looked at her blankly.

Song Wei scratched her head, a little embarrassed.

In these days, surgery was not as common as it would be in later generations. Except for a few first-class hospitals in China that had the conditions to perform surgery, conservative treatment was still used elsewhere.

Broken bones are one of them.

Director Lei also said just now that patients with fractures are usually either sawed off or treated conservatively, but conservative treatment is risky and may eventually require sawing off.

As for conservative treatment, it actually means direct external fixation and external application of medicine to allow the bone to grow back on its own.

However, this situation does apply to patients whose fractures are not dislocated, but it will not work if the fractures are obviously dislocated or even comminuted.

Of course, there are also experienced doctors who can feel the condition of the bones with their bare hands, straighten the bones and fix them without surgery.

But this is also a case where the fracture is not serious. For example, in the case of the patient in front of me, his bones were broken by the steel frame and shattered in many places. In this case, it is useless to straighten it with bare hands, and an operation is necessary.

The so-called surgery is to make an incision, artificially straighten the bone, then fix it with steel nails and steel plates, and wait for it to grow back before removing the steel plates.

The principle is quite simple, but for now it is very radical and risky.

All in all, medicine is underdeveloped and there are not enough medical cases, which are the current drawbacks.

But time cannot hold back Song Wei!

Over the past few decades, the world has changed rapidly, and the level of medicine and science has completely risen to an incredible level.

Song Wei has rich experience in this!
