What might a doctor listen to during surgery?
医生做手术时可能会听什么?
In“HARRY & PAUL , a British sketch-comedy show, two surgeons, Charles and Sheridan, aretrying to decide what to listen to while they operate.
在英国喜剧短剧《哈里与保罗》里，查尔斯和谢里登这两位外科医生正在试图决定他们手术时要听些什么。
Such a scene is not that unusual in an operating theatre. Surgery requires attention to detail, team collaboration, physical stamina and fine motor skills and a soundtrack can help with the endeavour.
手术室里这样的场景可以说司空见惯。外科手术要求医护人员注重细节和团队协作、有良好的体能和精准的操作技术，背景音乐的加入对这些则大有助益。
The use of music in surgery was first introduced in 1914，with a view to soothing patients in an era before anesthesia. Music masked the background noise and distracted patients from the experience of being cut open and sewn back together. Though many patients are now put under general anesthesia for intrusive procedures, the music lingers on, usually for the benefit of doctors.
1914年，手术室里放音乐被首次推行，在那个没有麻醉的年代，这样做是为了抚慰患者。音乐掩盖了手术室里的背景噪声，转移了患者注意力，让他们忘记自己正在被切开和缝合。尽管如今许多患者在做侵入性手术前已经被全身麻醉，但手术室里的音乐却得到了保留，此时音乐就是为医生们服务了。
What might your surgeon be listening to while you're on the table? The surgeons consulted for this article said the nature of the operationis a big factor in determining their playlists.
当你躺在手术台上时，你的外科医生可能在听些什么呢?作者为了写这篇文章而咨询的外科医生们表示，手术的类型是决定其歌单的一大重要因素。
Music is most crucial when patients have not been put to sleep.“More relaxing music for a local-anaesthetic vasectomy with an awake patient is useful to allow him to tolerate the procedure,”says Rajesh Nair, a consultant urological surgeon at London Bridge Hospital. Though it is not painful,the sensation and experience of the operation can be quite alarming. In these cases, music is intended to be a balm. Heavy metal wouldn't cut it (unless the patient specifically requested it).
当(手术过程中)患者并不会入睡时，音乐的选择至关重要。拉杰什.奈尔是伦敦桥医院泌尿外科的一位会诊医师，他说:“在一个使用局部麻醉的输精管切除手术中，更为舒缓的音乐能够帮助清醒状态下的患者更好地'挺过'手术。”尽管手术过程不会产生疼痛感，但是，感知并经历整台手术还是相当令人毛骨悚然的。在这些情况下，音乐就是为了给患者一种安慰。重金属音乐可能不太合适(除非患者特别要求)。
If patients are asleep, however, it is up to the surgeons. Individual preferences obviously come into it - what the head surgeon or the team see as relaxing or uplifting. Many have go-to tunes. For Alastair Fry, a consultant oral and maxillofacial surgeon at LBH, it's Groove Armada's “ Chicago” which he says “always helps get us in the zone'
然而，如果患者睡着了，选什么音乐就取决于外科医生了。显然，个人偏好才是最重要的，只要主刀医生或医护团队觉得舒缓或振奋人心的音乐就行了。很多医生都有自己的必点曲目。对伦敦桥医院口腔颚面外科的会诊医师阿拉斯泰尔.弗莱来说，必点曲目是Groove Armada乐队的《芝加哥》，他说“这首歌总能帮我们进入最佳状态”。
