My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Zhou Can always went all out. Coupled with his solid foundation in orthopedics and neurosurgery, and his extensive experience with major surgeries, his performance was quite impressive.

In resuscitation and diagnosis, the role of emergency medical wisdom was significant.

When faced with urgent resuscitations, this special medical technique would automatically provide him with wisdom, making his diagnostic thought process 50% clearer than usual. Plus, it came with an innate effect of keeping his mind cool.

Other doctors, when encountering critical situations with patients, would inevitably panic and get nervous.

Even Director Liu, with his rich experience, showed signs of extreme nervousness and anxiety when faced with major crises in patients. Sweat would pour from his forehead, and his expression would become particularly grave, and his tone, urgent.

This showed just how valuable the emergency medical wisdom technique's associated cool-headedness was.

The more anxious people are, the more muddled their minds become, the poorer their analytical abilities are, and the higher the probability of making mistakes.

Zhou Can's repeated success in resuscitations, and his excellent performance, was not just due to one aspect of advantage.

But rather a combination of multiple advantages.

Compared to him, the other 32 trainee residents entering the Intensive Care Medicine Department paled significantly.

Many of them were still at the basic level of learning how to operate various instruments, how to administer drugs, how to set up dialysis machines, ventilators, and other basic operations and lower-level resuscitation.

When it came to flexible medication management and dealing with various emergencies, they were totally incapable.

Yet Zhou Can was in a league of his own. Just one month into the training program, he was able to take independent shifts like a senior Resident Doctor.

And often, senior Resident Doctors would ask for his help.

Of course, this didn't mean that he was definitely better than the senior Resident Doctors. He had yet to master all the fundamental knowledge, let alone advanced knowledge.

Therefore, he always remained very humble and very diligent.

When encountering something he didn't understand, he would often ask for advice from senior doctors in a timely manner.

His gradually achieved exceptional status in the Intensive Care Medicine Department greatly facilitated his inquiries.

Other trainee residents would ask questions to Resident Doctors.

Zhou Can could directly consult with attending and director-level physicians.

Do not underestimate this advantage.

Resident Doctors' understanding of many problems is far from reaching the level of attendings or directors. Consulting with director-level physicians could yield more thorough and in-depth responses.

Often, such consults could lead from a simple question to several related or similar issues.

Asking once or twice may not show a noticeable difference.

But Zhou Can asked many times, and his accumulation of knowledge grew increasingly solid.

This was one of the reasons he could catch up to the capabilities of the senior Resident Doctors in just a short month.

Another thing worth mentioning.

Dr. Shi invited Zhou Can to collaborate on in-depth research and write a paper based on Patient No. 7 with digestive tract hemorrhage.

There has been significant progress already, and the content of the paper continues to expand.

Unfortunately, there was only this one case, which meant a lot of literature had to be reviewed.

Sometimes, what seemed like just a few short sentences or a few sets of data comparison would take both of them a lot of time and effort.

Plus, the parasitic infection found in the patient hadn't been discovered in any medical papers, magazines, or books before.

This significantly increased the difficulty of the research.

Although the process of writing the paper was incredibly difficult, the benefits to Zhou Can were also substantial.

Note that Dr. Shi considered this paper to be one of the papers for his promotion to the rank of associate director. It was a high-level paper.

For Zhou Can's future promotion to attending physician, this paper would serve as excellent evidence.

It was far superior to those papers bought with money or cobbled together by copying bits and pieces from various sources.

After a month, the other trainee residents departed one after another.

Jin Mingxi went to train in the Digestive Tract Surgery.

Zhou Can, however, stayed in the Intensive Care Medicine Department for further advancement.

...

Time flies, days and months pass like a shuttle.

Three months of trainee life in the Intensive Care Medicine Department were fulfilling and tense; almost every day, they would say goodbye to lives that had passed away.

Working here for a while, Zhou Can's greatest feeling was one of powerlessness and helplessness.

There were too many problems that doctors couldn't solve.

Sometimes, when he watched young lives pass away, he felt especially heavy-hearted.

However, during these three months, he went from being a greenhorn in a critical care ward to being a skilled fighter who was clean and decisive in action, firm in medication, and ruthless in resuscitation.

He saved countless patients from near death.

Many were brought back from the brink by Zhou Can and then carefully looked after by him until they were safely discharged from the ICU.

Every time a patient recovered and was sent out of the critical care ward, the medical staff would be especially happy.

They would often joke, "Finally, we sent out another one alive."

The day for Zhou Can to leave the Intensive Care Medicine Department finally arrived.

Having stayed here for a while, he had fostered deep connections with the doctors and nurses. Every time they resuscitated a patient, everyone rushed forward like comrades in arms. The sense of unity within this department was incomparable to any other, including the Emergency Department.

There was competition in the Intensive Care Medicine Department, and occasional petty scheming, but everyone still acted like a big harmonious, united family.

There were no barriers between groups.

Doctors and nurses sometimes worked together like couples striving side by side, with hearts and efforts aligned.

Zhou Can had a hard time parting with this department.

All feasts must come to an end, and it was time for him to move on to train in a new department.

In the office of the Intensive Care Medicine Department, Director Liu personally bid him farewell.
