■ Confessions of Grumpy Surgeons Behind Them The average number of aortic disease surgeries performed nationwide is 800 per year. More than 300 of them are performed at this hospital. The average time spent at the hospital is 18 hours a day, and home-cooked meals are eaten only once every 10 days. Even during urgent surgeries, countless emergency patients come to visit. Professor Song Seok-won, the attending physician of the thoracic surgery aortic clinic team, is called the hand of God, but he is a sensitive and prickly professor only in the operating room. He is afraid when he thinks about the small mistakes he might make unconsciously. He confesses that it is the painful truth of a surgeon that he can only perform surgeries well through countless practices and painful failures. ■ The best choice to make in an uncertain situation... Doctors always hover on the edge. Pancreatic cancer, a cancer with a 10% chance of survival Professor Yoon Dong-seop of the Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery Department is one of the people who sees the most deaths in the hospital. What does a doctor look like when he calmly talks to patients and their families and returns to the lab? Watching death has become a daily occurrence, but it is painful when it is one of their own patients. “What if, in the unlikely event, I make a mistake and ruin someone else’s life?” they confess. Sometimes they fear whether they can handle that burden. ■ A patient’s attitude depends on a warm word from a doctor Fourth-year resident in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery Jeong Yun-bin and third-year thoracic and thoracic surgery Woo Won-gi are learning about patient relationships here by bumping into and mixing with patients, which they could not learn from books when studying in medical school. There are so many patients that it is difficult to empathize with them all, but they also learn during their residency that they try not to become dull, that it is a doctor’s job, and that they must ultimately approach it with sincerity, not just work. With an average of 4 hours of sleep per day and over 100 phone calls per day... Through the war with sleep, the war with the phone, and the war with patients on the line of death, what they learned was, "I learned that only when you empathize with the patient's life as well as their illness can you become a truly good doctor." ■ Those who want to be good surgeons, endure the weight of the white coat It takes 13 years of training to become a specialist. The period of internship and residency, the residency period, is a difficult and harsh time that tests the limits of how intense it can be, and the time briefing the professor during morning rounds is actually the most stressful moment for a resident... It also contains the dark history of residents, such as a first-year resident who gets scolded by the professor during the briefing because he has too much to do and cannot take care of even the smallest details, and the honest feelings of a resident who turns away after raising his voice with a patient. ※ This video is [Documentary Empathy - On the Line of Death, I am a Surgeon] that aired on December 3, 2016. #Thoracic surgery #Doctor #Resident ✔KBS Documentary KBS Official YouTube Channel [KBS Documentary] 🔔Subscribe👍Like➡️ / @kbsdocumentary 📝Contact: [email protected] Copyright ⓒ KBS.
