Posted by… suppressed (18) by the Post Ghost! 👻Bailey rushed off immediately to do as she was bid, Ryley meanwhile considered the readouts. “I wonder if once we get him on the bypass we would be better to use the transporter to remove the thing then repair the damage.” He said glancing at Ash.
Bailey was back. “OR 1 ready.” She said.
Ryley and Bailey
The stasis field prevented transports within it. So he would have to be out of stasis to attempt it. A removal of such a huge object would cause massive and instantaneous blood loss.
Good news, however they were able to put the young officer on heart and lung bypass therefore negating the need for breathing or a heart beat. Although they hadn’t stopped either yet.
GM
Ryley considered the young officer and seeing that the bypass had indeed taken over adjusted a hypo to chemically stop the mans heart and breathing and allow the machines to do their job properly.
The hypospray had the intended effect and heart and breathing of the subject was reduced to zero. This was a measure that became more dangerous the longer it lasted, of course with modern technology they had days to work before it became an emergency.
Now to remove the offending object. Looking at summers Ryley added. “We should remove it here. Transporting him about isnt going to help matters. Opinions?”

After treating his burns patient, Phil was now on hand to assist the Fleet doctors with their task. His own choice of extraction would have been to use the transporter to beam the offending item out using micro-forcefields or sickbay’s holomatrix to simulate that the beam was still in place, but he assumed that the fleet doctors had already considered and disregarded this option.
-Phil
Summers looked at Phil “Your thoughts?” She asked as the bio bed began taking over his vital functions. “Anyway we do this is going to be a mad dash to keep him from bleeding out.” She said as she waited for Phil to throw his two cents worth in. Perhaps the medic had an idea that they had not thus considered yet.
Summers (med)
“Have you considerred using the holomatix to simulate the beam being in place to help slowdown the bleed out?” the marine medic asked, “You can repair the injuries a bit at a time turning off hologram bit by bit.”
-Phil
OOC: Just alerting you all to the fact that if you used holoprojectors, and/or attempted surgery, the stasis field would be deactivated. The way I read this is, turn off status field, beam out cross beam, turn on holo projectors of cross beam, then remove ‘sections’ of holo cross beams to do surgery.
gm
OOC: That’s the way I pictured it too - obviously at this stage it is a discussion of options between characters - It’s down to the lead physician to make the call on the course of action.
-Jim
OOC: Okay, same page, I will advise as more actions take place
GM
Ash looked at Ryley “That is an option.” She said “We will have to drop the stasis field and quickly establish the fake beam. Riley?”
Summers
<bump>
Ryley considered. All in all it was a good idea, either way they couldn’t keep the status field in place indefinitely and anyway they tried to remove it would result in mass bleeding.
“If we drop the status can we rig it so that the beamout and the replacement are instantaneous?” He rubbed his bread and looked at them. “Where’s there a holo expert when you need one.”
Ryley
MDPhil scanned the intruding object and fed the data into the holomatrix. “A holomatrix is easy if the hologram doesn’t need to look good. We’re only going to be using it for the forcefield,” Phil said. After a few moments he returned from the console.
“OK so, we activate the holomatrix and beam the intruding object out simultaniously,” Phil said, “We’re still going to have to work quick, but at least the odds will be in our favour. “
-Phil
OOC:
The transporter automatically held things in relative position to each other to keep a running person leg from detaching during transport. By this logic, the blood would remain where it was if the whole body was put into the beam and then only the crossbeam was removed. In this way a holographic replacement could be put in… relatively instantaneously for the person involved.
GM
Ashlynn worked quickly to seal the tissue that had been torn by the beam. They would have to work quickly to save the man’s life but if everything worked correctly.
Summers (med)
Ryley nodded as he looked over the plans on the computer panel. He glanced at Phil and Summers, “Right, let’s try this thing, be ready for a full damage assessment and repair procedures. Ready”
He waited for the acknowledgment from the team members and then holding a small breath he initiated the transport beam…
Ryley
MDThe transport was the only predictable thing about the upcoming surgery. The transporter beam locked onto the ensign holding him in place while the crossbeam was transported elsewhere. It actually gave a momentary look at the gaping wound and the torn and ruptured organs… behind a scintillating light show that was the transporter effect… before it cut off. At virtually the same moment the computer placed in a holographic version of the crossbeam that was, of course, only deep enough to fill the hole created in the body by the actual beam.
The holographic beam was clear and allowed the medical personnel to view the injures to some extent. Unfortunately, even with the near instantaneous replacement of the ‘beam’ the ensign bled out significantly and the holobeam was covered with blood and so was the body. The ensigns life signs spun down suddenly, and then stabilized… now weakening slowly.
GM
Ashlynn moved in with a autosuture and began sealing off bleeding vessels “Get me three more units of blood.” She ordered as she worked to stop the man from dying. “Ryley, we need to cautarize two of those vessels they are still oozing even with the autosutures in place.” She said point out two major bleeds that needed immediate attention.
Summers (med)
OOC: Any plans about the missing tissue.
GM
Ryley was never one for getting his hands dirty if the situation could be avoided, here it couldn’t. “ Yeah yeah yeah I’m not blind I can see the oozy red stuff.” He grumbled and picking up the vascular regenerator started to use it to repair the blood vessels and hopefully stop the bleeding.
“Someone want to get an Anabolic protoplaser in here to deal with the tissue damage?” He asked as he worked and Bailey put more blood into the infuser as Summers asked.

MD
The operation was turning into a multi-hand mess. The leaking vessel were require individual sealing, but to seal a vessel the force field had to be pushed back, when they pushed it back they opened another area that required sealing. The only thing they had going in their favor was a virtual unlimited supply of blood which they were able to pour in as fast as it poured out. They were also fortunate that there were no other pressing emergencies so every medical professional on the ship could help with this specific problem.
