Chapter 252: 253: Special Training on Bunnell Suture Technique
What does that mean?
Everyone has had the experience of explaining something to someone else, and during the process, there’s a feeling that as you’re explaining, you’re also improving yourself. You might discover your own shortcomings in thinking or consolidate your knowledge.
“Isn’t it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned!”
Qin Yue, standing by, was even more earnest than Fan Yunxia in listening. He realized that Chen Cang’s understanding of Tendon Suture Surgery was indeed profound, no wonder he was capable of such impressive Tendon Suture Surgery!
He must study a lot after getting off work, right?
His hard drive must be full of surgery videos. I’ll ask to borrow and copy some.
All of a sudden, Qin Yue felt an epiphany, perhaps Chen Cang truly aimed to develop a new kind of Tendon Suture technique, and the so-called Chen’s Tendon Suturing might not be impossible!
At this thought, Qin Yue’s heart couldn’t help but race wildly.
Chen Cang might really be onto something big.
At that moment, Qin Yue seemed to feel a sense of mission. After all, Chen Cang had invited her to join him in the endeavor. With Chen Cang working so hard, she couldn’t lag behind.
Now Chen Cang was consciously slowing down his suturing speed, attentively feeling and discovering his experience and deficiencies during surgery.
How could one summarize and reconcile the two factors, reducing adhesions and speeding up recovery?
…
…
The morning was busy; patients with tendon injuries came one after another in a continuous stream, as if disturbing a hornet’s nest.
Far from complaining, Chen Cang was actually grateful that this could potentially shorten the time needed to complete five hundred Tendon Suture Surgeries.
In the morning, with Qin Yue’s help, Chen Cang performed six Tendon Suture Surgeries. Although three were done in the treatment room, they were not any less demanding than those in the operating theater, perhaps even more so.
After coming out of the treatment room, it was almost 2 p.m. Chen Cang stretched out lazily, watching Qin Yue also stretching and doing chest expansion exercises!
Upon closer inspection, he was immediately taken aback!
Huh?
It seems…
it’s not for “A”!
Chen Cang was shocked by his own discovery.
This made him more curious than finding the flaw in the Bunnell suture method.
Chen Cang couldn’t help exclaiming, “Damn… Hidden depth, huh!”
Qin Yue immediately turned around, her gaze sharp as a knife, wishing she could gouge out Chen Cang’s eyes.
Chen Cang coughed and hastily offered, “Let’s have lunch together. You’ve worked hard.”
Qin Yue said, “You have a conscience.”
With six surgeries in the morning, even if Tendon Suture doesn’t pay much, by the surgery fee coefficient, Chen Cang could earn hundreds at least. Of course, Qin Yue also earned her share. This is the advantage of being staffed; the more you do, the more you earn. As long as your name is signed on the surgical participants’ list, you have an income.
It was already past one o’clock when they left. The lunch rush had passed, and the two of them walked together in harmony.
Qin Yue likes wearing loose clothing, those Korean-style, baggy burlap-sack-like garments that obscure everything underneath.
Chen Cang couldn’t help but laugh, “Qin Yue, why don’t you wear clothes that show off your figure? You look like a man in that; it might lead to misunderstandings!”
Qin Yue snorted coldly, “What! I’m afraid you will covet my beauty!”
Chen Cang almost spat out blood!
Covert your beauty…
They had lunch at Liu Yi Hotpot, enjoying the tendons and brain, and true to form comfort foods were satisfying. They both felt comfortably full and content. Only if they could take a nap right now, it would be perfect.
However, because they got off work late in the morning and had a scrumptious lunch, it was almost three o’clock. There was no choice but to go straight back to work.
The afternoon was still busy with patients, six or seven Tendon Suture Surgeries waiting.
Even Chen Cang, standing there, felt some soreness in his lower back, but Qin Yue didn’t utter a word about being tired.
This made Chen Cang swallow the complaint about his sore back he had wanted to make. What if it prompted a retort about him having weak kidneys? That would just be asking for embarrassment.
It was tiring, but the learning was fruitful!
Chen Cang felt he had many insights from this afternoon’s session.
Returning home exhausted, he heard the system’s notification sound.
[Ding! Daily task completed, Bunnell Suture Technique special training unlocked, do you want to start now?]
Chen Cang, lying in bed with nothing better to do, simply clicked to begin.
Suddenly, his vision changed, and Chen Cang found himself in an operating room.
However, there was a foreign man standing in front of him, dressed in white.
“Hello, I’m Bunnell!” the man said with a smile, introducing himself.
Chen Cang was somewhat taken aback. Was this the so-called Bunnell Suture Technique special training?
But Mr. Bunnell had passed away a long time ago; this couldn’t count as seeing a ghost, could it?
Chen Cang quickly bowed, greeting the senior practitioner, “Hello, respected Mr. Bunnell.”
Bunnell smiled a bit and nodded, “Today, I’m here to help you with the Bunnell Suture Technique special training.”
After saying that, Bunnell pointed his finger and a patient appeared on the operating table.
He beckoned Chen Cang, “In reality, rather than calling it the Bunnell Suture Technique, it might be more illustrative to call it the looped suture method. Its main principle is…”
“Now that you understand the main steps of the Bunnell Suture Technique, next, you’ll perform a few surgeries to get a feel for it.”
…
“You might have noticed that the Bunnell Suture Technique is not suitable for all tendon surgeries. Tendons have individual differences, different tendons, different zones, have different requirements, and likewise for incisions. You will need to determine what is suitable for the Bunnell Suture Technique, what the best choice is… please look…”
…
“Okay, after such a long time, you now understand the Bunnell Suture Technique well enough. Next, what you need to recognize are the pros and cons of the Bunnell Suture Technique!”
“Its advantage is quite clear, that is, it doesn’t leave foreign material inside the tendon! It facilitates the tendon’s healing later on and also doesn’t cause adhesions that could be triggered by foreign material or suture ends.”
“However, its operation is quite complicated. If the technique isn’t good enough, it could easily cause extensive adhesions, so it requires you to practice continuously.”
“So, in the next period, please start your practice. After I am satisfied with your operations, you will be allowed to leave.”
Under Bunnell’s guidance, Chen Cang seemed to undergo an era of transformation. It was a new understanding and deeper appreciation of tendon suturing, practice after practice, reassessment after reassessment, Chen Cang’s insights into this suturing method grew ever deeper!
After each surgery, Bunnell personally helped Chen Cang analyze and seek areas for improvement, striving to make breakthroughs!
Time was unaccounted for, and after countless surgeries, Chen Cang’s understanding of the Bunnell Suture had deepened, and his success rate in surgeries increasingly improved!
Finally, Bunnell looked at Chen Cang with a smile, “Young man, you are very talented. I hope the Bunnell Suture shines in your hands. But remember, the method is just a means to treat illness. Don’t be rigidly fixed on it. Any surgical method has its limitations. You must think beyond those limits, understand the disease, and choose the therapeutic approach. In fact, with tendon suturing, there isn’t one fixed method; you can even combine various different surgical approaches for treatment!”
Chen Cang nodded, bending sincerely to bow, “Thank you for your teachings, Mr. Bunnell!”
This time, Chen Cang was truly grateful, even if this was only a projection by the system. The favor felt genuinely profound.
No sooner had he spoken than Chen Cang found himself back in bed.
To be honest, after several special trainings, this was the most realistic experience Chen Cang had!
Indeed, the method was thoroughly taught under Bunnell’s tutelage.
He closed his eyes, constantly recalling what he had learned.
The learning this time was truly profound, granting Chen Cang a deep understanding of the soul and essence of a suturing method, which was immensely important.
Although Chen Cang’s Tendon Suture Surgery skills had already reached a masterful level, he felt that Mr. Bunnell’s technique, even if not perfect, was not far from it.
There is a long distance between a master and perfection.
And the great success of the Bunnell Suture Method had advanced Chen Cang’s Tendon Suture Surgery a significant step closer to perfection on that road!
