Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 91: The surgery is done!

"Dr Su, please. Do this surgery," said Wan Meili on seeing Wang Yu Yan's silence.

Wang Yu Yan sighed, this was a really difficult situation.

Suddenly, Chen Bo shouted, "The baby's condition is unstable."

Wang Yu Yan was brought back to reality and saw that the baby had some trouble breathing.

Quickly, she lightly pressed the baby's chest, and felt something she did not say anything.

But seeing her silence, Wan Meili became nervous and before she could say anything,

Wang Yu Yan said, "Prepare for the surgery."

..

After discussing the matter with Chen Bo, Wang Yu Yan came to the changing room.

Wang Yu Yan stood in front of the counter, where she changed her clothes to a surgeon.

After changing, she took a deep breath and sat at one of the benches.

To say that she was nervous, yes she was. But it was not because of the surgery, it was because of the expected consequences after the surgery is over.

What if they found her again? What if the memories that she had sealed will revive again?

What if it all came to her again?

Her thoughts were interrupted by the knock on the door, and a woman's voice said, "Dr Su, the operation theatre is ready."

"I am coming," Wang Yu Yan said as she took a deep breath and stood up from the seat and proceeded towards the operation theatre.

Entering the corridor Wang Yu Yan took the file of the baby that had some tests in it and examined it carefully.

She said, "Let's enter the O.T."

In the O.T. were Wang Yu Yan, Wan Meili, four nurses and an assistant doctor was a pediatrician.

"It is pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect*" Wang Yu Yan said, as she shocked all the staff present in the operation theatre.

Sighing she continued, "As you know his pulmonary valve has malfunctioned. A sheet of tissue is formed in place of the pulmonary valve*, not allowing blood passage into the pulmonary artery.

We have to undo the sheet of tissue and most likely repair the pulmonary valve. We will use heart catheterization in this procedure.

And in this procedure the surgery will be done by enlarging the passage of the pulmonary artery*.

So we should start."

Taking a deep breath everyone started the procedure.

"Give him prostaglandin E1 now,"ordered Wang Yu Yan to the nurse who then injected the meditation in the baby.

prostaglandin E1 medication was given to keep the ductus arteriosus* open post the birth of the baby.

The administration of the intravenous medication ensured that blood circulated through the alternative route in the baby's heart till surgical intervention took place.

"The patient is ready to be operated," said Wan Meili.

"Scalpel" Wang Yu Yan said, taking out her hand towards the nurse.

When it was handed, Wang Yu Yan made an incision at the chest of the baby.

The incision was clear and with the instruments, the small heart of the baby.

And thus, the complicated surgery started.

Heart catheterization which was used to solve the problem of blood flow in the right direction by inserting a thin, flexible tube into the heart. A small balloon was used to expand the pulmonary valve during this process.

A stent was placed to ensure that the ductus arteriosus stays open till corrective surgery took place

.During the surgery, a patch was placed over the ventricular septal defect to close the hole between the left and right ventricles of the heart.

The passage to the pulmonary artery may be enlarged to allow better blood flow. The pulmonary valve was now being repaired.

Seeing the fast movements of Wang Yu Yan's hands, everyone had the doubt whether she was a newbie doctor or an experienced one.

After three hours, the surgery was completed as the last stitch was made to close the incision made in the chest.

"The surgery is over, please take him to the N.I.C.U and give me the periodic report of every hour and the injections that you will give him," said Wang Yu Yan as she exited the O.T. leaving everyone dumbfounded.

Seems like we have seen this scene.

During the health minister's surgery, everyone had the expression but the only difference was that time she was at the place of Wen Mei who was deemed to be an experienced doctor.

But now she was a newbie doctor who had entered the hospital just a month ago.

Wang Yu Yan sighed inwardly, she sure has been sighing a lot nowadays.

Because there was nothing else to say, Wang Yu Yan decided to leave the O.T. and proceeded towards the changing room.

What Wang Yu Yan did not pay attention to was that the whole surgery procedure was by mistake recorded. Now god knows what havoc it will create.

Not weary of this, Wang Yu Yan changed to her outfit and approached Wan Meili, "I will be on my way to my place then."

Too busy to hear what Wang Yu Yan was saying, as she was still in surprise, Wan Meili nodded absent mindedly.

Expecting the reaction, Wang Yu Yan sighed and started to walk towards the elevator.

After sometime Wan Meili came to her senses and processing what just happened, she ran towards the elevator to stop Wang Yu Yan as she needed her to answer the one hundred and one questions that were floating in her mind.

But alas it was too late as Wang Yu Yan had left the hospital.

....

Pei Lin, after completing a long surgery, rushed to the N.I.C.U. where he was told a case of Pulmonary atresia.

He entered the N.I.C.U. where Wan Meili was standing near the baby that was operated by Wang Yu Yan.

He said, "Where is the patient with pulmonary atresia? I will be doing the surgery."

"Head Doc the surgery-" Wan meili wanted to tell that the surgery was all ready done but Pei Lin cut her in between and said, "Tell me where the patient is. We don't have time."

"But-" said Wan Meili but was again cut off by Lei Lin who frustratedly said,"What is it? Tell me?"

"The surgery was already done"
