Chapter 439
A surgeon who became a firefighter (439):
Meeting of abduction masters and masters (2)
When I turned my head, I saw a young man wearing sportswear and sneakers, not hiking clothes or hiking shoes, approaching at a fast pace.
“Should I put on weight?”
Professor Ko postponed the census of the other person because time was running out, and pondered over the meaning of the other person’s words.
“I’ll cross, so give me the rope.”
“I can’t. The rapids are much stronger than they look, so dangerous.”
“I’ve crossed many rapids like this already. So please come on. It looks like he’s going to the hermitage across the street to treat the patient, but there’s no time for that. Please come.”
“Have you crossed many rapids like this? Where do you get these torrents…”
“I don’t have time to explain that. Please give me the rope.”
“Ah, okay. Be careful.”
Professor Ko thought it would be impossible because he had already tried it, but he couldn’t just sit still without doing anything, so he untied the rope tied around his waist and handed it over.
The young man tied a rope around his waist, then picked up a large stone the size of two large watermelons put together and held it to his chest.
“Hey, you’re incredibly strong!”
Not only Professor Ko, but also the rescuers’ mouths were wide open.
The stones were so big that they didn’t even dare to lift them.
Puff…..
As the young man started walking with a stone, the floor was hollowed out.
‘Even if I knew how, I wouldn’t be able to do it. It must be difficult to lift a stone that big, let alone walk on it!’
Even though the valley water was up to his waist, the young man quietly crossed the valley without stumbling or struggling like himself. And in a short time of only a few minutes, we arrived at the valley on the other side.
“Success!”
“Awesome! To cross the valley with that big stone!”
While the people admired, the young man tied a rope to a tree thick enough to hold an armful. Rescuers also tied ropes to trees on this side so that people could hold onto the ropes and cross the valley.
“Let’s move the patient first.”
“Yes Professor. We will move the patient.”
Two lifeguards fastened seat belts to the ropes and lifted the stretcher overhead.
Then we started to cross the valley.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
…
“Hold tight! If you miss it, this patient will die!”
As the rapids rose up to their chests and splashed water on their faces, the rescuers stumbled and were pushed down. If the seatbelt hadn’t been hung on the rope, I would have been swept away in the rapids.
Rescuers struggled with arms raised halfway up the valley, unable to advance any further.
Perhaps because of his strong sense of duty, he did not let go of the stretcher, but it seemed that he would not be able to cross the valley in that state.
sniff with a plop.
At that moment, a young man in the valley opposite jumped into the water.
Professor Ko was startled because the young man was not holding a rock like before, nor was he wearing a seat belt like a lifeguard.
“Upper is dangerous!”
Aww.
However, Professor Goh’s concern soon turned to surprise when the young man grabbed the rope and moved.
Holding the rope with one hand, the young man quickly approached the rescuers and pulled them by the body. Then, the rescuers got out of their struggle and started to move forward, and after a few steps, they were able to reach the opposite valley on their own without the help of the young man.
“Hehehe… Hehe, the power is amazing!”
The two rescue workers admired the strength of the young man’s grip overcoming the force of the current.
“Professor, wear this belt and come across.”
At that time, Professor Ko grabbed the rope and tried to cross the valley, but one of the lifeguards hurriedly took off the seat belt he was wearing and threw it at Professor Ko.
Professor Goh put on his seatbelt and crossed the valley while the young man and another rescue worker ran toward the hermitage in the distance with a stretcher.
Heh heh…..
After crossing the valley, Professor Go turned his head and looked at the rapids, and was disgusted.
It’s so hard to cross without being naked, but I couldn’t imagine how the rescue workers would have carried patients across.
‘If that young man hadn’t helped me… I wouldn’t have crossed it!’
Professor Go sighed for a moment and then ran straight to the hermitage.
When I arrived at the hermitage, I saw a monk who looked quite old, on the floor, and a paramedic and a young man laying the patient in the room and checking his vitals.
The paramedics on Doctor Heli had qualifications as nursing assistants, and as they had been doing this for a long time, they had medical skills comparable to those of most nurses.
The nurse who had been riding the helicopter with them could not come down to the ground because of the weather and had gone with the helicopter when it returned.
Professor Ko took off the backpack he was carrying on his back as he entered the hermitage.
The backpack contained medical instruments needed for surgery and fluids containing electrolytes and glucose.
Since it is a backpack that carries medical equipment and medicines, it is basically waterproof, so even though I crossed the valley in the rain, I did not get wet inside.
After entering the room, Professor Koh secured the unconscious patient’s airway, checked his vitals and looked at the affected area, not a rescue worker, but a young man who came with him, and made a puzzled expression.
Recognizing the professor’s expression, the rescue worker spoke first.
“Professor, this man is also a doctor.”
“what! A doctor?”
“I was a resident at Daehan Hospital and recently opened as a surgeon.”
At the words of young Han Jin-soo, the professor’s eyes widened slightly and the light of relief was small.
A surgeon who could operate would do a better job of assisting than a lifeguard during his own operation.
“is it so. I am Ko Hyeon-jong, chief of the Department of Emergency Trauma Medicine at Agu University Hospital.”
“This is Han Jin-soo. I have heard of your reputation.”
Professor Ko Hyeon-jong’s reputation was so high that even in the same car accident, there was a joke that if it happened near Agu University Hospital, he would live and if it happened far away, he would die.
“I was in a hurry to see if I could save him because he was an emergency patient with severe wounds, but maybe I can expect good results.”
The patient’s left thigh was cut in half, and blood continued to flow even though the upper part of the affected area was tightly tied.
“There must have been a lot of bleeding, so my vitals are very far apart. Do you have a Hartmann Dextrose in your backpack?”
Hottech refers to an infusion containing electrolytes and glucose, and it can be used as a temporary solution when blood cannot be supplied to patients with severe bleeding.
“Of course it is.”
“To stop the bleeding, I think I need to start with the broken blood vessel first…”
Before Han Jin-soo finished speaking, Professor Ko took out a local anesthetic such as lidocaine and tools necessary for surgery such as a needle holder and Kelly.
“Don’t worry, we have all kinds of surgical instruments. I’ll put a hot tech on it, so find some broken blood vessels.”
“All right.”
While Professor Goh puts on surgical gloves and finds the patient’s vein and connects the fluid, Han Jin-soo put on surgical gloves, local anesthetizes the area to be operated with lidocaine, removes twigs stuck in the affected area, and cuts the blood vessels with Kelly. He grabbed them and threw them out.
After connecting the infusion, Professor Koh, who was threading the needle and fixing it to the needle holder, widened his eyes as Han Jin-soo found the broken blood vessels in an instant.
Blood vessels are elastic, so if they are cut off, they hide inside the affected area, making it very difficult to find them.
Of course, if you are an expert like yourself, you can do it quickly, but it was quite difficult for a doctor who opened a hospital after doing a residency.
‘If you had this level of skill, you wouldn’t have missed it at a university hospital, but why did you open it? Do you have a story?’
How to know ten when you see one.
The skill was guessed.
Professor Ko was briefly surprised, but he did not have the time to remain silent.
I had to hurriedly put the two blood vessels that Jin-soo Han had found and fixed, cut the cross section with scissors, and perform an anastomosis.
When anastomosing blood vessels, one person had to assist, but that was done by a lifeguard.
While Professor Ko connected half of a blood vessel, Han Jin-soo found all the large blood vessels that caused bleeding and fixed them with Kelly.
The patient’s bleeding stopped considerably.
Chii-iik…
After the blood vessel protrusion work was finished, Han Jin-soo took out an electric cauterizer from his backpack, connected the cord to the hermitage’s outlet, and began to support the tiny capillaries.
Professor Ko was very surprised to see Han Jin-soo, who knows what he needs the most at this moment, even though he didn’t ask him to.
‘I don’t know why he opened it, but he’s a very well-trained friend!’
If you are a skilled person like this, you will be able to perform vascular anastomosis.
I thought it would be nice if he could take on the difficult-to-operate veins and anastomosis the relatively easy arteries.
“Have a doctor connect that artery.”
“All right.”
In a situation where a patient’s life and death come and go, the virtue of leaving behind is an insult.
As if he had already thought of doing so, he put a suture on the needle and fixed it to the needle holder.
Puffy. Fufufufu…..
Professor Goh’s eyes widened in an instant.
The anastomosis that connects severed blood vessels is a delicate task that requires a lot of concentration because it has to be sewn as if opening a thin blood vessel.
Because of this, I can’t afford to look elsewhere.
Of course, Professor Ko wouldn’t have looked away if Han Jin-soo’s needle holder hadn’t moved so quickly that it caught his eye.
Anyway, I was worried that Han Jin-soo’s needle holder was moving too fast, so I looked carefully to see if something was wrong.
When I saw that, my mouth dropped open.
You have to sew with great care, stitch by stitch, so that when blood flows later, the anastomotic area does not burst and blood clots accumulate less. Therefore, it is important to perform the vascular anastomosis carefully rather than quickly.
However, Han Jin-soo’s hand movements were almost at the level of machine stitching.
Of course, it was a bit exaggerated, but that’s how fast it was.
Professor Ko himself, who is said to be within five fingers in surgery in this country, was rumored to have fast hands, and he was proud of himself, but he seemed to be three times faster than himself.
Nevertheless, when I looked at the anastomosis area, it was spotlessly clean.
‘Mi crazy hand movements! How can he build such skills at his age?’
Professor Ko suddenly became curious about the person Han Jin-soo himself.
pop.
However, while Professor Ko was doing this for a while, Han Jin-soo was finishing the anastomosis and cutting the suture with scissors.
Suddenly.
It was only then that Professor Ko realized that he had been lost for a while.
He was still unable to complete the venous anastomosis.
Even though it is a vein that is more difficult to anastomose than an artery, it started a long time ago, and he has a high reputation known to the public.
Professor Ko focused on venous anastomosis.
Han Jin-soo’s hand was moving so fast that it was dazzling right in front of him, but he forcibly cut his nerves and focused on what he had to do.
apart. I thought
I heard the sound of Kelly untying the artery several times, and then I saw Han Jin-soo changing the needle and suture.
‘uh? already?’
Professor Ko’s eyes returned to Han Jin-soo’s hand.
