"You two come over here and join me for a meal."
Back downstairs, Liu Banxia waved at Xu Yino and Liu Yiqing.
"Teacher Liu, don’t worry, we’ve made full preparations." Xu Yino said with a stern face.
"There’s a new development in the situation. Qiaoqiao has decided to try a natural birth first. If it doesn’t work, we’ll go for a cesarean section. You guys just need to be on standby then." Liu Banxia said.
"Really? The mistress is so great." Liu Yiqing shouted happily.
This shout was quite loud, catching the attention of many people in the emergency center.
"What’s the matter? What’s going on?" Wang Chao scurried over.
"Qiaoqiao said that for the sake of the two babies, it’s best to try natural birth first. If there’s difficulty in delivery, then perform a cesarean section. This is the latest directive." Liu Banxia said.
Wang Chao gave a thumbs up, "This is truly amazing, even two babies have this kind of idea, this is motherly love. To celebrate this motherly love, I’m joining you for a meal too, and I’m not bringing my meal card."
"Off you go, always bullying me." Liu Banxia said.
"My dear Director Liu, did you say that the wrong way round? Who’s bullying whom? Is it easy for me to officially have a meal with you? When is it not you bullying me?" Wang Chao started to complain.
"Haha, is that really the case? Oh well, it’s fine, let’s eat together, let’s eat together." Liu Banxia said with a laugh.
Seems like he has been bullied a bit too much, this poor little thing. Once married, there probably won’t be much pocket money left.
Where can you hide it? Officer Ma’s professional qualifications are quite high. Even though he’s working as a traffic cop now, he graduated from criminal investigation.
"I must say, I thought someone from Qiaoqiao’s living environment would definitely be quite delicate. A cesarean section is currently the preferred childbirth method, and we only have a few natural births each month at our emergency center, not even reaching 25%." Wang Chao asked.
"We can only say that each has its merits; labor pain is something not everyone can endure." Liu Banxia said.
"Even I didn’t expect it, my wife is so strong-willed, truly a good wife. After the baby is born, must serve her well, let her stay a few more days in our place."
"Tsk tsk, only the two of you would treat a VIP ward like a hotel stay." Wang Chao sighed.
"Don’t say that, according to Qiaoqiao, our VIP wards are much better than hotel rooms." Liu Banxia said.
"The stuff in the ward is clean, right? Would you dare use the electric kettle to boil water or the towels to wipe your face even at a 5-star hotel?"
"She even has many people to chat with here, she says it’s better than being at home. And by the way, she loves eating the dishes from our canteen."
"Let it be natural birth then, I just feel a bit sorry for her. But that’s her nature, once a decision is truly made, it’s hard to persuade her otherwise."
"She didn’t tell me directly, she inquired from Sister Huang. Probably planning to inform me just before giving birth, it’s probably her little temperament."
"That’s the way it is, anyway, I firmly support the mistress. Teacher Liu, give us twenty minutes off after dinner, we’ll go chat with the mistress." Xu Yino said.
"As if I can control you." Liu Banxia said.
"Help me take good care of the patients in the ward for the next few days; this wave is almost over. Once they get discharged, we’ll be able to truly spread the reputation. It’ll be close to when it’s truly time to get busy."
The two girls nodded, knowing that the real busy time hasn’t arrived yet.
"Teacher Liu, I feel that the postoperative situation of TaTME surgery has been somewhat underestimated by us." Liu Yiqing said.
They were following up on the patients’ conditions and comparing them with patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer.
Although current data isn’t much, patients in terms of postoperative recovery, those from NOSES surgery are indeed in a leading position.
Especially patients who underwent TaTME surgery are recovering faster.
Liu Banxia nodded, "From the current postoperative situation of patients, that’s indeed the case. However, the patients we’re covering right now are somewhat different; only two are over fifty years old."
"Later, also categorize each age group’s data, and enter all the patients’ information into the database you’re creating now."
"Then, no matter which patient’s criteria we need to search for, we’ll be able to make horizontal and vertical comparisons, this is comprehensive data."
"Moreover, this is a genuinely significant project. My short-term goal is a one-year data tracking period. In the long run, it will be three years, five years."
"So, you should be prepared. The days ahead will be tough, and the data you need to accumulate and compare will increase. Only then can the paper you write have solid data to support it; it won’t be written just for publication."
"Teacher Liu, don’t worry. Anyway, we’re determined to thoroughly understand this surgical system." Xu Yino said.
"Didn’t you say we needed to have a focus? Now NOSES surgery is our focus direction, and we must get it right."
She was full of fighting spirit, and this was not just her thought but also the thoughts of the other five.
Like Liu Banxia, they really didn’t take NOSES surgery seriously before. They thought that it was merely a change in surgical methods, which might have some impact on the patient’s prognosis, but not significantly.
But now they don’t think so anymore. Each of them visits the patients’ wards undergoing Liu Banxia’s NOSES surgery at least twice a day.
It’s to constantly understand the conditions of these patients, and they record any tiny changes.
"Teacher Liu, I also discovered a problem. The atmosphere in the wards of these surgery patients is quite good. It gives me a feeling, how should I put it...superiority? That doesn’t seem quite right." Liu Yiqing said after having her meal.
"Anyway, it’s an indescribable feeling. As soon as I enter this ward, I feel very happy. Unlike other wards, I always feel a sense of oppression."
"It’s not that the patients are all so optimistic, that’s not it. But when you enter these three wards, you can clearly feel something different."
"Oh, it seems our Dr. Liu can conduct a derivative study." Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"Teacher Liu, don’t make fun of me. They also have the same feeling." Liu Yiqing quickly said.
"Why would I make fun of you? I’m telling the truth. You can conduct a study from the perspective of the patients’ mindsets and the ward atmosphere," Liu Banxia said.
"The reason you have this feeling is that they are the first batch of people to undergo this surgical method. Naturally, there’s a sense of ’superiority’ as you said."
"People are very curious about novel things, and since they are fortunate enough to qualify for the TaTME surgery, that’s an amazing thing."
"I have said before, if the patient has a positive mindset, they will push towards recovery actively. This can’t be seen or touched, and there’s only a general direction through the data."
"So I suggest you research this aspect and read more books in the psychology field. Your empathy is strong, and maybe you can achieve something in this field in the future."
"But you need to be careful; your nature is a bit soft. Being approachable can sometimes be dangerous. So you need to weigh this carefully because there’s always a balance of pros and cons."
"Thank you, Teacher Liu. I will have a good study with Nuonuo." Liu Yiqing said seriously.
"Sigh... Teacher Liu, could you take me as a student too? I’m so envious of them." Wang Chao said, feeling pitiful.
Liu Banxia gave him a sideways glance, "As if you could work as long in the frontlines. Even if you want to, do you think it’s possible?"
"Why not? When the time comes, you can talk to our Old GrandMaster, and it will be done." Wang Chao said confidently but he himself was somewhat doubtful.
Everyone’s family background is different, and their expectations for their children’s future are also different.
Wang Chao’s parents are both leaders; allowing him to work in the frontlines of the emergency center for a period is already fine. Eventually, he needs to take the administrative path.
If it weren’t for the emergency center being a key support project of the Second Hospital, it would have been difficult for Wang Chao to stay there.
Let’s put it this way, whether Wang Chao can work long-term at the Second Hospital is still uncertain.
He definitely needs to accumulate experience at the Second Hospital within two to three years. After accumulating, he needs to advance further. As for the future, it’s really just guesswork; even Wang Chao himself is unsure.
It’s not like everyone is shouting, "I want to break free from the cage, I want to break from the life path planned by my parents." If you say this, it means you are successful.
Wang Chao’s demeanor made the two girls very happy. Currently, many people at the Second Hospital envy the six of them. Especially since having done so many NOSES surgeries, the results have been surprisingly good.
Anyway, they feel very fortunate. Back then, they all feared being exhausted and wanted to escape the emergency center. But eventually, it was Liu Banxia’s mixture of tough and soft methods that kept them there, and that was their luck.
Otherwise, they would only be able to watch others learn NOSES surgery with Liu Banxia. By then, their regret would be deep, and they would experience great remorse.
As for their development direction, they don’t need to fret about it.
Worry about these things? Just study steadily and diligently, and that’s the advantage of following the right person.
Currently, Liu Banxia is researching NOSES. In a few years, given his amazing growth capability, he will probably be researching new things by then; there’s never enough to learn.
