Any highly difficult surgery would require the support of multiple different hospital departments. Superintendent Ouyang wouldn't directly give orders regarding this, as she wasn't a surgeon. She preferred to leave professional details up to the professionals themselves. If this matter had been related to cardiology or internal medicine, Superintendent Ouyang would have instead instantly made the decision herself as she was knowledgeable in such topics and confident that she could make the correct decision.
However, she didn't have such professional knowledge about surgery. Although Superintendent Ouyang really trusted Zhang Fan, this wasn't a special emergency surgery, so there was no need to take such risks. Chasu City Hospital had a vice superintendent who was in charge of surgery. Superintendent Ouyang simply needed to express her attitude. It was actually really important not to pretend that you understood something that you actually didn't in the medical field.
