operating in Less-than-ideal surgical settings broken

Description of issue

Dear People Resources,

Yesterday, I operated on a patient who died. No fault of my own, of course, there was a lot of yelling and screaming that distracted me as I decapitated the patient. Distractions happen, but that's hardly the point here. The real point is, I was operating on this patient in less-than-ideal circumstances, on a roller bed on board a shuttle as we transited between the ship and the planet. My hand slipped as I went to remove their skull (it was to be a simple brain surgery), and I figured this was fine, as the slip ended up breaking the skull anyway. I used a patch to fix the damaged brain tissue, and found that I couldn't fix the skull. neither bone gel or bone setter worked to repair the damage. So I started to try to finish removing the skull with a bone setter but got distracted by yelling from my crew mates and decapitated the patient. My bad. I guess.

I thought it was possible that I might have lost the retractor when my hand slipped with the saw, so I attempted to repeat the surgery on a monkey. I performed the surgery flawlessly, and repaired the skull as I expected to. However, then it came time to sew the skin shut from the surgery, and I found myself unable to. The wound had apparently shrunk, too small for use of sutures, and wasn't bleeding due to hemostat. I should note at this point that the surgical opening created left the skull VERY visible, and that the entire crown of the skull was exposed visibly. Seeing no other options, I attempted the surgery again. I couldn't open up with use of the retractor on the wound. I moved the patient to a proper surgical bed, cut the surgical opening again with my scalpel, retracted the injury, checked that the hemostat was still clamping bleeders, ensured the skull was properly set. And then I was FINALLY able to sew the skin shut over the skull.

You can imagine this was very frustrating. And you're probably wondering, "Why is Dessi writing to people resources about her own incompetence?" I need training. Please allocate training.

Difference between expected and actual behavior

can't sew post-organ-repair patients' skin shut when performing on less-than-optimal surfaces. I used the roller bed for each of my instances.

Steps to reproduce

Attempt surgery on a patient that requires removal of bone to get at organs that need work done. then, close up the surgery.

Specific information for locating

Unsure how else to break that down.
