Chapter 217: Pulmonary Fibrosis
When Wu Youqian returned to the rescue room from the interventional operating room with an airtight transfer bed, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening. When people get older, they feel less, but at the same time, they can't stay up late. Director Wu yawned vigorously, shaking his head as he walked, and sure enough, as soon as people got older, their physical functions began to decline rapidly. Even a yawn had to be split six or seven times.
Speaking of which...... Did Zhou Xiufang ever think about the same thing as herself at a certain moment before, such as "people are old and useless" and the like?
At least I'm probably in a slightly better shape than my previous teacher, and at least I have some extra time. Wu Youqian walked a little slower, and walking briskly would make him feel a little out of breath. He loosened the collar and ripped some space for his neck.
That young Dr. Sun did well, and he was indeed a gifted doctor. Wu Youqian continued to walk, still thinking about Sun Lien's affairs in his heart. However, there are some details that may need to be exercised again - he does not see his own illness, which at least shows that his abilities are still within the range of normal "human". Not to the point of being anomalous to the point of being non-human.
Teaching a genius, Wu Youqian still has some experience. Teaching Zhuge Liang is a brand new field that has never been experienced before-the students who are close to demons are too stressful to teach.
It's a pity that such a good diagnostic seedling was actually poached by Liu Tangchun. At this moment, Wu Youqian even had the idea of trying to find a way to snatch people from Liu Tangchun's hands. Then this thought was interrupted by a burst of wheezing and coughing.
It's a pity...... Wu Youqian leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths. He shook his head with a wry smile, but unfortunately he was running out of time.

"Dean Wu, are you back?" Wu Youqian had just returned to the rescue room when he was blocked by Sun Lien.
"Doctor Sun, is there something wrong?" Wu Youqian asked with a smile, "Don't worry, the patient's condition is not bad." Director Xiong is still very sure that he will do this surgery. โ
Sun Lien looked at the top of Wu Youqian's head over and over again, then frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly changed to a businesslike expression, "Dean Wu, according to Dean Song's instructions, all doctors who have been in contact with plague patients need to conduct a blood sampling test once a day. Start with your blood so you can get to rest sooner. โ
Wu Youqian glanced at Sun Lien, as well as the blood collection needle and tourniquet in his hand, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You came to draw blood for me?"
Sun Lien looked at Dean Wu, then at the guy in his hand, quickly shook his head, and then pushed out Xiao Guo, the nurse on the side, "He's a nurse, let him come." โ
Dean Wu looked at Xiao Guo, a nurse who was 1.98 meters tall, frowned twice, coughed lightly and said, "You young people should go and rest, I'll let Hu Jing come and collect blood for me." โ
The solemnity on the face of nurse Xiao Guo disappeared in an instant - when he was pushed out by Sun Lien just now, he looked like he was under a lot of pressure.
Sun Lien left with a smile, and before he had gone far, he was dragged into the conference room by Dean Song, who was lurking in the small conference room.
In the conference room, the members of the entire treatment team were gathered together, and they looked at Sun Lien, who was dragged into the conference room by Dean Song, with different expressions on their faces, but most of them were lively.
"Did you see anything?" Song Wen said to Sun Lien urgently, "Is there something wrong with Lao Wu?"
Sun Lien smiled bitterly, "Dean Song, if I can really know what is wrong with others at a glance, then I will really become an immortal." โ
Sun Lien did see Wu Youqian's status bar, there was not much content, and there was nothing particularly that caught Sun Lien's attention - the only state was "pulmonary fibrosis", which lasted for more than 19,000 hours, about more than two years.
Pulmonary fibrosis is a very serious symptom โ it is an overproliferation of fibroblasts and a large accumulation of extracellular matrix due to over-repair of cells following lung injury. The main symptom of pulmonary fibrosis is "dyspnea". When pulmonary fibrosis progresses, people may begin with dyspnea with strenuous activity, rapidly progress to resting dyspnea, lose most of the function of the lungs, and eventually die of respiratory failure.
But Sun is not too worried about the problem โ Wu Youqian's pulmonary fibrosis has been going on for more than two years, and his current state is nothing more than "possible breathlessness under strenuous activity". Then it can be considered that Wu Youqian's pulmonary fibrosis has not progressed further. This does not conform to the characteristics of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia that mainly causes pulmonary fibrosis, so Sun Lien thinks that the meaning of the status bar should be "pulmonary interstitial fibrosis".
Sun Lien believes that the "pulmonary fibrosis" prompted by the status bar is probably the scar tissue that has grown in the lungs after Wu Youqian had suffered from lung diseases before. Although it cannot be reversed, it should not continue to develop. Considering the etiology of pulmonary fibrosis, it is mainly due to abnormal repair. This symptom seemed to be the scope of Dr. Pascal's research, so Sun Lien turned to Dr. Pascal and asked, "Can fibrosis in the lungs be cured?"
Sun Lien's original intention was to ask Lao Pa if there was any suitable immunosuppression regimen that could be used. He also vaguely remembers that the preferred treatment for pulmonary interstitial fibrosis is to control the extent of fibrosis by suppressing it with a dose of hormones. Although the cause of Wu Youqian's pulmonary interstitial fibrosis is uncertain, it should not be difficult to control - it is just a matter of a few injections of hormones.
"Fibrosis?" In the pantry next to the small conference room, Director Huang Wenhui came out with coffee, "Is it pulmonary interstitial fibrosis or pulmonary fibrosis? These two are not the same thing......" She walked to the conference table, put down the coffee, frowned and asked, "Who do you think has this disease?
Sun Lien hurriedly shook his head, and then said his reasoning about Dean Wu, "The progress is long, the treatment effect is not good, it will lead to difficulty breathing, I guess it is pulmonary interstitial fibrosis...... That's why he tries to avoid involving himself in the direct treatment process. โ
Director Huang rejected Sun Lien's conjecture without hesitation, "It can't be pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, and general pneumonia has not done so much harm...... Dean Wu is so old, if he has pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, the alveolitis at the beginning can cost him half his life. I haven't heard of any breathing problems in a long time. โ
This time it was Sun Lien's turn to be at a loss, after all, the status bar really indicated the state of "pulmonary fibrosis". But if this pulmonary fibrosis is not talking about the interstitial lung ...... This is the most serious form of parenchymal fibrosis.
"Older people, slowly progressing disease, predominantly dyspnea, untreatable or without appropriate treatment options...... Together, these three points sound like IPF (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis). Dr. Brunn, who was on the sidelines, knocked on the table, and Dr. Pascal had been helping him translate what Sun Lien said, "It's not too much trouble to be clear, listen to his lungs." In general, IPF patients will have velcro rales in the middle and lower parts of both lungs. โ
