Hey Hey guys today was one of my most exciting school day. Today was my class Surgical day, ok well every Friday is surgical day. In my school there is a Vet hospital so its run by the students, and it was my class turn do do surgery. So everyone in the class will have a task to do, and the teacher will be the Vet Surgeon.
So at first I was doing reception duties and surgical gopher. But the Surgeon Assistant had a cut on her hand so she couldn't do a scrub up, and I had to change shift with her. So while they were clipping up the animal (cat spey) I had a meeting with the Vet surgeon, just going through what will happen and blar blar blar. Than I had to scrub up, scrub my hands for 5 mins; each hand 2 1/2 mins haha. Than gown up, wear a mask, shoe cover and hair mat. So after all the scrubbing is done I was the "no touch person" nobody was allowed to touch me hips up, and I can't touch anything which was not sterile. And off we go, the surgery starts.
It was like Grey's Anatomy, I had to stand by the instrument tray and pass the instruments over. So the Vet surgeon would say to me "Scalpel please" and I would find the scalpel and pass it over to her, and I got to cut the uterine horns for her. Cool.
Well it was all going well but the scrub pants that I was wearing was like Aussie size and it was loose, and I took a small pants. So it kept falling down, and half way through the surgery it was really going to drop, so I turned around to one of my friend and ask if they could pull it up for me. And she didn't know what to do, all the nurses didn't know what to do. And we all started to laugh, BTW I'm the only boy in class again. Thank goodness another vet came in and pulled it up for me. Stupid pants so loose.
Well ya exciting ya. The spey went well, the cat is all happy and health and the Vet Surgeon said I did a good job. So we are all happy.
