When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Monday morning at nine o’clock, after handing over his shift, Chen Cang set out towards the residency training center.

Today’s training was on thoracic cavity puncture.

Scheduled to start at nine-thirty, Chen Cang, with his USB drive in hand, went upstairs early to start preparing.

At this time, no one else had arrived, and Chen Cang went over to plug the USB into the computer. He saw Fu Zhihui come in and place a sign-in sheet on the table.

Turning to Chen Cang, she said, “Dr. Chen, you’re here so early? Is the emergency department not busy?”

Chen Cang smiled, “When Teacher Fu gives an assignment, naturally, I have to do it well!”

Fu Zhihui smiled back and then turned and left.

In fact, this kind of teaching wasn’t voluntary labor, it came with a little money.

To the former Chen Cang, one hundred or two hundred was true love; naturally, he couldn’t miss out on a single penny.

After all, everyone was in the same class and often saw each other at class meetings, although Chen Cang rarely attended.

But… a handsome person always leaves a good impression!

Seeing Chen Cang, several of the residency girls curiously said:

“Chen Cang, you’re so proactive?” Hou Tian said with a smile.

Chen Cang was startled, then gave a slight smile, “Well… I can’t be absent.”

Upon hearing this, the girls burst into laughter, “You have the cheek to say that!”

“Exactly, like you’re one to talk about absenteeism!”

Chen Cang gave an awkward smile, “It’s different, anyway, that’s the sign-in sheet, go sign in first.”

At that moment, Qian Lin and a boy walked in. Seeing Chen Cang, they too laughed, “Eh? My God, you actually came! I was wondering whether to call you or not.”

Chen Cang smiled and took the sign-in sheet. After checking, he saw that everyone, all twelve people, had arrived, ready to begin.

Thinking this, Chen Cang looked at everyone and nodded slightly, “Okay, close the door, let’s begin.”

Qian Lin was startled, “The teacher hasn’t come yet, how can we start?”

Chen Cang smiled, opened the PowerPoint on the computer, and the screen showed: “Thoracic Cavity Puncture, Speaker: Chen Cang.”

Chen Cang looked at the astonished students and said with a smile in his eyes, “Today, I am your Teacher Chen. I will introduce you to the basics and precautions of thoracic cavity puncture. Let’s get ready to start.”

At that moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

“No way!”

“Damn!”

“Really?”

“Pfft!”

…

A group of people stared at each other, their eyes as wide as saucers!

Their faces filled with incredulity as they looked at Chen Cang in astonishment.

Qian Lin was especially in disbelief, “Chen… Chen…”

Chen Cang smiled gently, “From now on, call me Teacher Chen!”

The crowd immediately burst into laughter.

However, Chen Cang quickly said, “Alright, everyone quiet down. Let’s start today’s lesson on thoracic cavity puncture.”

“So first, we should understand, what is the purpose of a thoracocentesis?”

“One is for diagnosis, and the other is for treatment!”

“Let’s start by talking about thoracic puncture from these two aspects…”

Chen Cang explained in great detail, and since they were peers, everyone was more active and open, resulting in numerous questions.

Moreover, Chen Cang’s explanations were clear and easy to understand, woven with his own insights, and he covered a lot of material not found in textbooks.

Thoracic puncture is a common clinical procedure because it is not particularly difficult to perform, so the doctors in the department are quite confident in it.

Frankly speaking, what surgery values is courage.

Getting started is the hardest part; once you begin, it becomes much easier.

As for the operative steps—things like disinfection, laying out the sterile drapes…

All punctures are fundamentally similar; the important aspects are safety precautions and aseptic principles.

After the explanation, Chen Cang watched everyone perform the procedure, offered suggestions, and then discussed some of the latest international and national guidelines on thoracic puncture and things to be mindful of.

The scope of the knowledge covered was quite broad, ranging from basic to important points, all the way up to the latest information.

Chen Cang explained them all carefully.

He also talked about some special cases and techniques, among other things.

Really, you don’t need to remember and master everything at once, but you do need to have an impression of it.

When it came to the questions from the crowd, Chen Cang was more than happy to share all he knew without reservation!

What was most noteworthy was that no matter how tricky the question, Chen Cang always managed to provide a reasonable explanation.

That was truly frightening upon reflection!

Chen Cang was their classmate, after all.

And yet he was so impressive!

With this in mind, it naturally followed that people began calling him “Teacher Chen!” “Teacher Cang!”

The class passed quickly, and everyone felt they had gained a lot, finding the experience incredibly enriching. It was the first time they discovered that a lesson could be so lively and interesting!

After the crowd left, Chen Cang suddenly received a system notification.

[Ding! Congratulations on diligently imparting knowledge and solving doubts with medical ethics and benevolence. You have passed the test and gained: Skill Point +1.]

It was a small reward, but it made Chen Cang very happy.

At least it showed that his efforts hadn’t been wasted.

Chen Cang contemplated that to receive rewards from this task of medical ethic and benevolence, one probably needed to earn the genuine gratitude of others.

…

This year marked the first time that Province No.2 Hospital recruited residency trainees from the public and other institutions.

With a large number of residency trainees, including both Chen Cang’s peers and many from the community, the training center had to organize a training program that was both efficient and orderly for the newcomers, while also not disrupting the work of all the doctors. As a result, it was impractical for a single doctor to conduct the training. Instead, a rotation was needed to accommodate everyone’s schedules, thus allowing doctors to continue with their regular work unhindered.

Shi Qi, the former head of thoracic surgery, had to be invited to the training center regardless of his circumstances. Even if he didn’t have the time, an invitation was a must.

What surprised Fu Zhihui was that Shi Qi actually accepted!

Was the deputy head of breast surgery not busy enough?

Generally, the training center preferred not to use doctors with administrative roles because they tended to be troublesome, had many issues, and liked to nitpick. Our Director Shi was particularly known for this throughout the entire hospital.

But since Shi Qi was willing to participate, the center wouldn’t turn him away. After all, having two or three years of experience in thoracic surgery was more than sufficient for understanding thoracic puncture.

The training center thought it over and decided to let Shi Qi and Chen Cang alternate the training, with each taking a day. This rotation would be more convenient for everyone.

On Tuesday, while Chen Cang was at work, Shi Qi was responsible for training thoracic puncture.

Shi Qi was in a good mood that day; he even took the time to put on a clean lab coat and slicked his hair back with some gel. He appeared much more spirited and arrived early at the training center’s puncture suite with his USB drive ready, preparing everything for the start of the training.
