Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 2027: Technical Talk

"It’s all my fault." Tears streamed down Li Xiaobing’s face, dropping like beads.

Xie Wanying hurriedly wiped her senior sister’s face again, saying, "Senior sister, you love the baby very much. We know that what happened wasn’t a fall; you were trying your best to protect the baby."

In situations like this, it’s essential to first stabilize the pregnant woman’s emotions. Xie Wanying tightly held her sister’s hand, not to shirk her responsibility but to be truthful.

Upon carefully observing the scene of the incident, it was apparent that although the pregnant woman’s leg posture looked like she had fallen, she hadn’t. If she had fallen, the consequences would have been more severe, and the pregnant woman would have cried out in pain.

Li Xiaobing is overly cautious when it comes to protecting her baby; she would never let herself fall in the bathroom. The slippers she wore were anti-slip. So, the reason she was sitting on the bathroom floor was an unexpected dizzy spell. She slowly leaned against the wall until she reached the floor. Her uneven leg posture and facial expression of pain were purely due to the abdominal pain and subsequent rupture of membranes.

The junior sister’s words somewhat comforted her. Li Xiaobing sniffed and asked, "But why did it suddenly rupture?"

The reason is hard to say. In clinical practice, there’s no way to accurately predict premature rupture of membranes. Think about Boss Zhang, who left earlier; he could sense that the pregnant woman’s stomach was unstable, but couldn’t accurately forecast when it would happen.

Sending her to the hospital prematurely was unrealistic. If the test results showed nothing, the hospital doctors would send her home. Li Xiaobing had already experienced this last time. After all, the beds in tertiary hospitals are very limited.

"Senior sister." Xie Wanying spoke in a soft tone, "The obstetrician should have talked to you about this issue. Think back, didn’t they? So this situation is within our expectations. You don’t need to be overly anxious."

With the junior sister’s reminder, Li Xiaobing seemed to recall some words from the doctors: "I think they mentioned—"

"Senior sister." Xie Wanying helped her sister sort out the logic, "Your cervical shortness was detected months ago, which inherently carries a risk of premature birth, hence the bed rest at home. Premature birth will undoubtedly lead to premature rupture of membranes before term."

The junior sister’s clarification brought back the related medical knowledge for Li Xiaobing: "Yes, I do have a risk of preterm birth."

"Senior sister, see how amazing you are? You’ve kept the baby safe until thirty-eight weeks, full-term, which isn’t considered premature anymore. Even though the membranes have ruptured now, the baby isn’t a preterm baby anymore."

These technical words from the junior sister opened Li Xiaobing’s mind completely, and she agreed enthusiastically: "You’re absolutely right."

Seeing the patient suddenly stop crying and becoming relatively calm.

Song Xueling couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Dr. Xie has an incredible skill that’s unknown to many, only revealed at crucial moments to the fullest, almost perfectly. That is, when Xie Wanying works with patients, her technical language skills are truly first-class.

Now Li Xiaobing trusts her junior sister’s words very much, or rather, she was completely captivated by her technical talk, asking, "What should I do about this breech position, Yingying?"

"Senior sister. Regarding breech position, it’s not entirely impossible to deliver naturally; it depends on the situation. The obstetrician discussed this with you before; otherwise, they wouldn’t have told you to wait until labor begins to evaluate and decide. If conditions are favorable, breech positions can result in natural birth." Xie Wanying explained logically.
