Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital

Chapter 116: Spatial Perception Ability Reappears


Half an hour later.

Inside the neonatal ICU.

Zhao Heng, dressed in surgical attire and gloves, stood in front of the incubator, ready to begin this special tracheal intubation.

Due to the infant's birth weight being just 1.5kg and now infected with severe pneumonia, he simply couldn't be taken out of the incubator.

Because of this, Zhao Heng had to perform the intubation within the limited space of the incubator, meaning all the high-difficulty procedures, due to the restricted space, had to be completed by him alone, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of this tracheal intubation.

Not far away, Fang He and several neonatal department doctors were intently watching Zhao Heng, who was about to start a special high-difficulty organ intubation.

As for Gu Jia, due to being the provider of medical equipment, she was allowed to enter the ICU to watch and record the use of this medical equipment in real-time, of course, with the consent of Zhao Heng, Fang He, and the medical department.

"Gu, are you classmates with Dr. Zhao?"

Fang He looked at Zhao Heng, who was preparing for the operation with an air of medical expertise, and couldn't help but glance at Gu Jia standing beside her, asking somewhat puzzled.

"Yes."

Gu Jia nodded.

"Was Dr. Zhao also excellent in school?"

Fang He asked again.

Now, not only her, but the entire female staff of Eastern Hospital seemed quite interested in Zhao Heng.

It's not that Zhao Heng's charm is so great that he's an irresistible magnet, it's purely a matter of curiosity and gossip.

After all, Zhao Heng's sudden rise and rapid ascent are quite intriguing, making people want to understand more about his past.

"Yes, he received a scholarship every year."

Gu Jia nodded, speaking somewhat absent-mindedly.

After graduation, she didn't become a doctor; she chose to work in medical equipment sales.

But after working in this field, Gu Jia realized that the rumored lucrative medical equipment sales were not as easy to handle.

Just this month, Gu Jia's sales target couldn't be met.

Unable to meet the sales target, there's no performance bonus or commission, just the basic salary, which is a base salary of 5000 yuan.

This amount of money makes living in North City barely feasible.

Watching other salespeople earn several thousand in commission every month whilst she could only earn a base salary, Gu Jia felt incredibly upset.

Isn't there a saying, seeing a colleague earn money is more painful than losing money yourself!

In front of the incubator.

Zhao Heng was already prepared for the tracheal intubation.

"Prepare the laryngoscope, we can begin."

Zhao Heng said to the nurse standing beside him.

"Alright, Dr. Zhao."

The nurse nodded and pushed the bedside laryngoscope over.

Under normal circumstances, a laryngoscope isn't needed for tracheal intubation, but today's intubation is different.

To minimize any damage to the infant's airway, Zhao Heng had to use the pocket laryngoscope first to determine the specific condition and anatomical structure of the infant's airway before completing the intubation as quickly as possible and avoiding airway damage.

The faster this procedure is completed, the less damage to the airway.

Simply put, the essence of medical procedures is stable, accurate, and prompt.

Soon, Zhao Heng operated the delicate tube of the pocket laryngoscope, gently probing into the infant's mouth and cautiously extending to the airway.

As the tube entered the airway, the real-time image inside the airway was transmitted through the camera at the tube's tip to the electronic screen of the bedside laryngoscope.

Hiss!

Seeing the image on the bedside laryngoscope's electronic screen, everyone present couldn't help but take a sharp breath.

Because the image on the electronic screen showed that the swelling in the airway was very severe, leaving only a very narrow gap for tracheal intubation.

This meant that the difficulty of the intubation was even greater.

Zhao Heng had to memorize the precise position of the airway right now—even every small protrusion needed to be remembered clearly, otherwise during the operation, if there was a slight mistake, it could damage the blood vessels in the airway, and if bleeding were to occur, the infant would instantly suffocate, a situation simply unimaginable.

At this point, Zhao Heng's spatial awareness came into great play.

Previously, during blind threading for the super parturient in obstetrics, this skill had played a pivotal role.

And now, spatial awareness was going to help Zhao Heng accomplish this challenging tracheal intubation.

It can be said that the ability to form 3D images in the brain based on sight and touch is essentially what all surgeons dream of.

Zhao Heng operated the tube, navigating through the infant's narrow airway while quickly memorizing the structure of the airway.

Soon, Zhao Heng confirmed he had fully remembered the airway structure, swiftly pulling out the tube. This maneuver was neat and quick without causing any damage to the airway, seeming crisp and clean, highly satisfying to watch.

It can be said that in surgery, any skilled surgeon's maneuvers have this clean and accurate sensation.

"Has he... fully memorized the airway's position?"

Watching Zhao Heng's operation, everyone present, only Fang He understood.

Because she understood, Fang He was even more shocked.

Every doctor has experienced the painful memorization exercise during medical studies, though memorizing knowledge through sheer hard work is achievable.

But memorizing position and spatial structure must be a unique talent that very few possess!

"It seems so."

A resident doctor standing next to Fang He also understood Zhao Heng's operation, expressing with admiration.

But Gu Jia, at this moment, was already stunned.

Could this be the same Zhao Heng she remembered?!

This aura of majesty, this calm composure even in the face of upheaval, contrasted greatly with the impression Zhao Heng left her during college.

What has happened to this world?

What has happened to him?

At this moment, Gu Jia's mind was filled with questions.
