Chapter 38 This operation can be done
For the desperate brothers and sisters of the Wang family, this news was undoubtedly a lifesaver, so when the brothers and sisters heard the news, Director Wang immediately pleaded with Dr. Xu: "Dr. Xu! Then you should quickly call that Director Wu and ask him if he can help my father with heart bypass surgery? ”
When Director Xu thought of this, he planned to paged Wu Longkai, so he no longer hesitated at this time, and immediately left the ward and went to the nurse's desk to paged Wu Longkai.
At this time, Wu Shengjie's family was sitting in the box of the Hancheng Hotel with Jiang Xiuxiu's mother and daughter, chatting about family life while eating, and the relationship between the two families was also closer to each other because of this dinner, when the dinner was nearing the end, Wu Longkai's pager suddenly rang, Wu Longkai heard the pager, subconsciously glanced at the display number on the pager, and saw that it was an unfamiliar phone number in the provincial capital, so he said to Zhang Yuxin apologetically: "Mrs. Jiang, I see that the time is almost up, why don't we get here today?" ”
"Director Wu! Sister Lin! I'm really very happy to be able to meet you and my wife when I come back to Hancheng this time, since Director Wu has something to do, then let's meet again another day. Zhang Yuxin saw that Wu Longkai proposed to end dinner, and he no longer kept it, and after a polite exchange with Wu Longkai and his wife, he walked out of the box together.
Just when Wu Longkai walked from the box to the hotel front desk, his pager rang twice, although he didn't know who the other party was, but since the other party would paging several times in a row, it meant that he must know someone, and there were very important things to find him, so at this time he gave up to the public phone outside the hotel to paging back, and directly used the phone at the hotel front desk to go back.
"Hello! I'm Wu Longkai! Which is the paging number calling 9336? When the phone was dialed, Wu Longkai asked the other party very politely.
"Old Wu! It's me! I'm Lao Xu! Where did you go? Call the duty room of your hospital and say that there is no shift tonight, so I will paged you, but I still didn't call back after waiting for a long time, should you report to your family so early! Director Xu heard Wu Longkai's inquiry, and laughed and teased Wu Longkai.
Wu Longkai heard Director Xu's words, and subconsciously glanced at his wife standing aside, the change in his wife did give him a lot of temptation, and the couple had already secretly whispered before setting off for dinner, preparing to have a good time at night, but as a result, they were controlled by the other party, and naturally felt a little weak in their hearts, and asked Director Xu: "Old Xu!" You guy calls me at this time, you don't just want to tease me! Just say something, right? ”
"You guy, you don't have any humor at all, the situation is like this, Governor Wang was in the province at noon today when the coronary heart disease suddenly attacked, when he was admitted to our hospital because of a number of coronary arteries seriously blocked caused by insufficient blood supply, now he has fallen into a state of shock, it is necessary to carry out heart bypass surgery as soon as possible, you also know that heart bypass surgery is the same as heart repair surgery in our country before only clinical research, almost no doctor can perform heart bypass surgery, I know that you are a guy who likes to study strange cases the most, and you have successfully completed an atrial repair operation, so I would like to ask you, do you have the confidence to do this heart bypass surgery? ”
Director Xu knew that time was the patient's life at this time, so when he greeted Wu Longkai for a while, he immediately got to the point and said his true intention to find Wu Longkai.
"Heart bypass surgery!" As a director of surgery, he was no stranger to this new medical term, but he had only seen similar literature in some medical newspapers, so at this time, he instinctively wanted to answer that he would not, Wu Shengjie, who was standing beside him, gently pulled his clothes and said to him: "Dad! In the end, heart bypass surgery is actually very simple. ”
When Wu Longkai heard Wu Shengjie say that heart bypass surgery was very simple, he instinctively wanted to reprimand Wu Shengjie, but he quickly thought of the heart repair surgery the day before yesterday, perhaps because of Wu Shengjie's performance in the past few days, he no longer treats his son as a teenager, so at this time, he reached out and held down the microphone and asked Wu Shengjie in a low voice
"Son! At present, only hospitals in the United States can perform this kind of surgery, and our country is only in clinical demonstration, with a success rate of less than 5%, and this patient is our governor, in case of a little mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable, are you really sure? ”
Heart bypass surgery is only a surgical method for the treatment of coronary heart disease that has just been applied to medicine in this era, and it has only just begun to be applied to surgery in the United States, and it is only a theoretical idea in the medical community of the Tang Empire, so Wu Longkai will have this expression, but it is different for Wu Shengjie, not to mention that he has a lot of high-tech medical knowledge of the Holy Dragon Planet in his head, even if he does not have this knowledge, he has done more than 40 such operations in his previous life. Therefore, this kind of operation is almost an operation that cannot be completed for the doctors of the Tang Empire, but it is still relatively easy for Wu Shengjie.
So at this time, Wu Shengjie replied very simply: "Dad! Heart bypass surgery is to take a section of veins or arteries outside the heart, expose the heart through surgery, connect the two ends of the removed blood vessels to the heart blood vessels, bypass the narrowed or blocked heart blood vessels, improve the blood supply to the myocardium, and then achieve the purpose of relieving angina symptoms, improving heart function, improving the quality of life of patients and prolonging life. This method is equivalent to building a bridge over a blocked road to allow otherwise impassable vehicles to pass through, hence the name "heart bypass".
"Usually this kind of surgery needs to cut off the blood supply of the heart to the human body, and the heart-lung machine is used to circulate the blood to the outside body to protect the important operation of the brain and other important organs.
"Like a bridge that makes the highway cross the mountains and rivers as unimpeded, but the material used is not reinforced concrete, but the patient's own saphenous vein, internal mammary artery, right gastro omental artery, radial artery, is to take the greater saphenous vein on the calf or thigh, one end is anastomosed with the distal end of coronary artery stenosis, one end is anastomosed with the ascending aorta, and several lateral holes can also be opened in a vein at the same time to anastomosis with several coronary arteries lateral anastomosis, this is the so-called sequential bypass or serpentine bridge, in short, I can't explain it clearly in one or two sentences now, Anyway, I can do this surgery, but your hospital doesn't have a heart-lung machine, and if a patient wants to have surgery, he must have a heart-lung machine. ”
Wu Longkai heard Wu Shengjie's answer, thought carefully in his heart for a while, and replied into the phone: "I can do this operation, but I need a heart-lung machine, and our hospital does not have this equipment at present." ”
Director Xu on the other end of the phone heard Wu Longkai's answer, and was pleasantly surprised to confirm again: "Old Wu! Are you telling the truth? Are you really able to do this kind of surgery? ”
Although Wu Longkai was not very sure in his heart at this time, he was very confident in his son, so he confirmed to Director Xu again: "Old Xu! I, Wu Longkai, am I the one who holds the empty cannon indiscriminately? As long as I have a heart-lung machine, I can guarantee that the surgery has a success rate of more than 50%. ”
"Good! Old Wu! We have a heart-lung machine in our provincial hospital, and I will send a car to Hancheng to pick you up now, and you can prepare it over there. When Director Xu saw that Wu Longkai was sure that he would indeed have heart bypass surgery, he was extremely happy and immediately said to Wu Longkai.
Wu Longkai originally thought that the other party would send the patient to Hancheng, but he didn't expect to let him go to the provincial capital, you must know that it was his son who did this operation, not himself, if he went to the provincial capital, I am afraid there would be a lot of inconvenience, so at this time he immediately said to Director Xu: "Old Xu! Tomorrow I have two surgeries, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to the provincial capital, or you let the provincial hospital send the patient overnight, it's more than eight o'clock, it takes about six hours from the provincial capital to our Hancheng, I can help the patient with the operation immediately tomorrow morning. ”
Director Xu was very happy when he learned that Wu Longkai could do this operation, because Wu Longkai was stubborn and had never recognized patients at work, and as a result, he had been in the position of director of surgery, so he felt that it was a rare opportunity for Wu Longkai to help Governor Wang treat the disease this time.
If Wu Longkai cured Governor Wang's illness, he would definitely have unexpected help for Wu Longkai's promotion in the future, but he didn't expect Wu Longkai to let Governor Wang go to Hancheng for treatment, he glanced at Director Wang who was standing aside, and he knew that Wu Longkai's surname was Gege, and he knew that since Wu Longkai was unwilling to come to the provincial capital, no one could force him, so he could only reply helplessly: "Old Wu!" When will that stubborn temper of yours be able to change? All right! I won't tell you more on the phone, I'll arrange a car to send the patient to Hancheng now. ”
When Wu Longkai was on the phone, Zhang Yuxin stood aside to pay, although the communication between the father and son was very quiet, but it clearly reached her ears, although she did not know how complicated the heart bypass surgery was, but the conversation between the father and son undoubtedly shocked her, because she felt from the conversation between Wu Longkai and his son that Wu Shengjie's medical skills seemed to be more exquisite than Wu Longkai, which undoubtedly made her curiosity about Wu Shengjie even heavier.
Of course, although she was very curious, she knew that there were some things to ask and some things not to ask, so at this time, she pretended not to hear anything, and said to Lin Xiaoxia with a smile: "Sister Lin! I still have to go to the hospital with Xiuxiu, so I won't send you, remember to call me when you have time. ”
