Based on this intuition, Tao Le sent the catheter into the back of the patient's nasal cavity.

With precise movements of the right hand, the catheter is rotated ninety degrees, so that the bevel faces the posterior pharyngeal wall, and is advanced smoothly but gently.

She was close to the glottis. She rotated the catheter so that the bevel faced the side wall, raised the patient's neck with her left hand, and smoothly passed through the glottis and entered the trachea.

A success. Tao Le quickly pulled out the catheter core, fixed the nasal tube with a medical bandage, and immediately took the "ball" from Dr. Wei's hand and connected it to the catheter.

By pinching the balloon, oxygen enters the patient's airway along the catheter, quickly improving the oxygenation status.

The patient relaxed visibly, and the cyanosis on his face began to gradually disappear.

From the time the patient's respiratory muscles spasm to the time when the airway is unobstructed, it takes exactly forty seconds, no more, no less.

Tao Le accurately calculated the time through the countdown in the upper left corner of his field of vision.

It was in these short forty seconds that the smell of gunpowder smoke filled the silence, blocking the door to life and death.

It wasn't until this moment that Tao Le raised his head, and what he received was Doctor Wei's admiring gaze.

"Doctor Tao, you are so amazing!" These were his true words.

If at the beginning, he relied on his many years of experience as a front-line medical practitioner in rural areas and looked down upon these young doctors from the city, now this idea has disappeared.

A blind nasal cannula insertion made him realize the huge gap between himself and medical students with a professional background.

Any female doctor, maybe a professional in Chinese medicine, could do it so neatly and easily.

If you look at it this way, how powerful is Dr. Chen, who is now even famous among the villagers?

When Ye Chen and the village director rushed into the house in a hurry, they saw Doctor Wei squeezing the ball seriously.

His frequency is very stable, staying at about 18 times a minute, and he works very seriously and attentively.

The patient's nasal canal was very conspicuous. Ye Chen saw it at a glance, and his heart was agitated.

It seems that what he was worried about happened just now.

"Doctor Ye, are you here?" Tao Le, who was observing the wound when he saw them coming in, immediately stood up.

"The patient just had a sudden laryngeal muscle spasm. The situation is urgent and the only option is transnasal tracheal intubation."

As soon as she said this, she was interrupted by Ye Chen.

"Xiao Tao, go take over and pinch the balloon for the patient."

"Okay!" Tao Le took over the shift obediently, replacing Dr. Wei who had just tried his best to grab this job.

Ye Chen walked towards Doctor Wei with emotion on his face and held his hand: "Doctor Wei, you are a real person and don't show your face!"

Doctor Wei looked confused: "Ah? What?"

No matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what he did so well that he deserved such praise from Dr. Ye, who led the team in the first hospital.

Is it because I can pinch the ball well, my hands are strong, and my frequency is stable? This is indeed true.

Thinking of this, he quickly said modestly: "With a little practice, anyone can do this ball-squeezing job well. It's nothing."

"Doctor Wei is so funny. Of course what I'm talking about is not the ball, but the nasal cannula." Ye Chen's evaluation of Dr. Wei has improved a lot. Not only is he rich in practical experience, but he is also so humble!

"Without any auxiliary equipment, we successfully completed transnasal intubation by blind insertion and successfully kept the patient's airway open. Even I may not be able to do a better job than you."

"Ah, that's not it." Doctor Wei was speechless and wanted to refute, but he did not block Ye Chen's words.

I just heard him sigh: "Doctor Wei, you have refreshed my understanding of village doctors!"

Only then did Dr. Wei have time to interject.

"But the one who did the blind nasal cannula just now was Dr. Tao!"

Doctor Tao, which Doctor Tao? It took Ye Chen a moment to realize that the person Doctor Wei was talking about was Tao Le.

How can this be?

No wonder he didn't think about her from the beginning.

In addition to preconceptions about seeing Dr. Wei pinching the ball, this technique of transnasal intubation is a very difficult practical skill.

Even if he himself was the attending physician in the past few years, without the guidance and support of fiberoptic bronchoscopy, the probability of a successful blind insertion was not high, let alone the residents.

As for Tao Le, she hasn't participated in the regular training yet. It's good if she can intubate the patient normally through the mouth. But through the nose? Blind intubation must be successful in the first time? What a joke.

When newbies practice, there are a few whose hands don’t shake. This matter does not distinguish between men and women, everyone is similar.

At this moment, Tao Le's steady and accurate movements on the overpass floating in the wind suddenly flashed through his mind.

By the way, her mental quality is high, so her hands are steady. It is because of this that she was able to perform operations that were almost impossible for her in such an emergency.

Ye Chen looked at Tao Le and saw that she was not angry or resentful about his misunderstanding at all. Instead, she squeezed the ball in her hand seriously, one after another, with the intervals as accurate as if she had used a stopwatch.

The voices of the patients' family members crying to the village director also reached his ears.

"Just now I almost thought that Shanzi was going to die soon. I was so worried that I was so scared that even Doctor Wei couldn't do anything!"

"Fortunately, there is Doctor Tao. I couldn't understand what she did. Shanzi came back to his senses in a few seconds!"

"His fourth uncle, you have to thank Dr. Tao for me!"

Ye Chen's eyes condensed. He had always thought that no matter how outstanding a person was, he would be suppressed by the environment and bound by luck.

Therefore, he does not think highly of all the girls in this group, including Tao Le, and does not want to do useless work for them.

But the incident before him was like a loud bell hitting his head, letting him know that he was wrong.

Even in such an environment that heavily favors boys over girls, capable people will still find a way out on their own.

Just like right now, aren't there family members of patients starting to sincerely identify with Tao Le as a doctor and forget her gender?

So he himself needs to think carefully about what to do.

What happened next was like running water. Ye Chen personally made an incision and debridement of the wound, completely removing the spores and necrotic tissue. He also picked out a few small wood thorns from the middle, which made Dr. Wei's face...

Slightly red.

After the skin test, Tao Le established an intravenous channel and infused the patient with 20,000 units of tetanus antitoxin.

"We are only providing first aid for tetanus that has already occurred. Many monitoring equipment in the village cannot keep up, so it must be sent to a higher-level hospital." Ye Chen told the village director.
