The most important thing in treating empyema is to drain the purulent effusion in the patient's pleural cavity and administer post-operative anti-infection measures.
Empyema in infants and young children is usually treated by puncture combined with antibiotics, while adults often undergo thoracic closed drainage surgery.
Qin Wanwan was already very familiar with this surgery.
It was entirely because Gu Yu had taught her this during his time at the Affiliated Hospital.
At that time, Gu Yu had demonstrated with his hands no less than ten times, dissecting the details repeatedly.
Although it was her first time performing such a surgery, Qin Wanwan felt as if it was second nature to her.
After all, this was just a model and not a real person, so there wasn't much psychological pressure.
She made an incision the size of a thumb between the patient's second ribs as Huo Xiaoyi quickly passed her the medical hose and drainage bottle.
