"Whew...... I finally got through it! ”

On Saturday afternoon, John came out of the room with a long breath: after carefully examining all the patients in the room, he was finally reassured.

The body temperature dropped, the spirit improved, and the patient with the perforation finally survived.

John has been worried about her for the past two days, in fact, not only the female patient with a perforated appendix, but also the other two patients who had surgery this week John is a little worried, worried that they will have postoperative infections or other complications, after all, it cannot be avoided when there are antibiotics in the future, let alone now?

But fortunately, God really gives face, and as far as the current situation is concerned, all the six or seven surgeries they did were successful!

Coming out, he and Thomas smiled at each other, and the two walked briskly to Professor Bergman's office.

"How's it going?"

As soon as John and the others walked into the office, Bergman asked eagerly.

Along with the professor of surgery, John was joined by two surgeons, Chuck Dyer, from London, and Hines, the editor of the German Medicine, who was once again at Charlotte today.

"It's out of danger."

After taking a deep breath, John couldn't hide the smile on his face and said, "As long as you take care of it carefully, I personally think there should be no danger......

The moment John's words fell, there was a dead silence in the office.

And then......

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ……”

As Professor Bergman began to clap his hands vigorously, the two British surgeons and Hines followed, and even Thomas himself became extremely excited, and the nervousness before entering the ward this morning was swept away, and he slapped himself vigorously!

Everyone knows that John succeeded!

"It seems. I don't have to ask about the results anymore. ”

At this moment, a clear voice came from outside the door, and Professor Wolfgang walked quickly in front of John, stretched out his right hand and said loudly: "Congratulations, Mr. Huntelaar, you have made a new history of surgery!" ”

"Thank you. Thank you for your help, sir! ”

Squeezing Professor Wolfgang's right hand vigorously, John bowed slightly, and said gratefully.

He was justifiably grateful to the professor of internal medicine, and in fact if it weren't for his great help, John would have been able to complete his first clinical steps, but there is no doubt that this time would have been delayed a lot, and the twists and turns would have greatly increased: the title of professor of internal medicine at the University of Berlin. The impact on patients is just too great!

"It is my pleasure, Mr. Huntelaar."

When he said this, Professor Wolfgang's face did not have the casualness of the past, and he also bowed slightly, and his expression was very serious and he also expressed his due respect to John!

No one was surprised.

In fact, everyone looked at John with a look of reverence at this time, because when the patient with the perforated appendix was discharged from the hospital, John would establish himself as a solid person in the field of surgery and even medicine. Become one of the best doctors in the world, even if not inferior to Bergman and Wolfgang!

This statement. No exaggeration!

Even in the eyes of surgeons such as Bergman and Chuck Dyer, John is now on the same level as Liszt, Robert Koch, and Pasteur in France!

It is difficult for people in the 21st century to imagine the dangers and sufferings of the end of the 19th century, because any kind of disease can take people's lives, including cancer, leukemia and other serious diseases that will be very difficult in later generations, including plague, cholera, yellow fever, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases that have no cure. These include common diseases such as gastric perforation and acute appendicitis, and even minor illnesses such as colds and pneumonia that people think are insignificant......

There is no real effective drug, and the danger of surgery is even more terrifying!

So not to mention poor places like India, China, and Africa, even in the centers of the world like Europe and the United States, where the average life expectancy is just over 40 years. This is also because of the great economic development of Western countries in the 19th century. The level of nutrition and the results of public health progress have basically nothing to do with medicine.

So when Robert Koch invented the method of culturing bacteria in vitro, he went from a small-town doctor to an expert at the Royal Health Service in Berlin, and when he discovered Mycobacterium tuberculosis, he became a hero of the whole of Germany, and then became the attention of the whole world!

Without him, it is because in this era, tuberculosis is the number one killer in the human world!

Therefore, even if Koch did not find a cure for tuberculosis, but only found the cause of the disease, it was enough to make mankind ecstatic, and immediately became an iconic figure in the German medical community, being pulled out to compete with the French Pasteur.

And John's contribution to foreign science, in the eyes of surgeons such as Bergman, is probably no less than that of Robert Koch!

Surgery has entered the door of modern science from the wilderness, starting from the emergence of anesthesia technology and disinfection technology, although there has been significant progress in the mortality rate of some diseases in the past 40 years, but it is mostly concentrated in some old era surgical techniques, and the real breakthrough is far from forming a peak. The aseptic disinfection technology is limited to the hands of the doctors, the surgical space and the patient's surgical site, which is not standardized at all, and the anesthesia technology is limited to the anesthesia of inhaled gas.

So at this time today, all the people are excited!

When the first appendectomy was completed, everyone was actually quite excited, but it was nowhere near as good as this time, especially when John was sure that the patient with the perforated appendix would also recover smoothly, this excitement was absolutely incomprehensible to other laymen!

What could be more exciting for the doctors than the near-death patient who was saved?

And, more crucially, the success of this case illustrates the inescapable fact that John's surgery could not only save patients with pain in the right lower abdomen who were not particularly severe, but also those who could be judged to be dead by physicians......

Even John himself made it clear that there was a certain element of luck that the patient could be saved, and there was no guarantee of a 100% success rate. Nor can it counteract its heavy dà meaning.

These are two concepts entirely!

For surgeons in particular, this means that they can finally break through the traditional surgical constraints of trauma, amputation and mass removal, and at least in the field of right lower quadrant pain, they will no longer be subordinate to internal medicine physicians, but will become the most important one!

In other words, it will be an important milestone for surgery!

Of course, the surgeons who discovered the McCephalic dot and the McCephalic incision in real history were not so highly rated. But don't forget, John also did things that went far beyond the scope of the other party. Mature surgical aseptic techniques, relatively mature local anesthetic techniques, and fully mature appendectomy techniques, which were gradually perfected by countless surgeons in the next few decades, were compressed by John to be completed in one year!

It can be said that John's theories and techniques will have a profound impact on surgery!

Decades in advance of the aseptic technique will greatly improve the survival rate of surgical patients, coupled with local anesthesia technology will allow more surgeons to dare to challenge human body cavities, the anatomy, pathology, and surgical mode of appendectomy will guide them in the way forward, and John will gradually refine the concepts of incision selection, tissue management, drainage, and suture in the next few months. It is the foundation of the foundation of general surgery!

This will be a theory that applies to almost all surgical procedures!

Therefore, John only ushered in a new era of abdominal surgery when he was a child, but when he was older, if he spent enough time to pay tribute, John's theory and technology would redefine surgery!

This kind of thing is not something that anyone can see.

Even a top surgeon like Bergman might not be able to see that far, but the people in the room were enough to see the influence that John was about to have. Maybe in a short period of time, say a year or two, you won't see much change. John's fame would only spread among the top surgeons in the world, but only when aseptic techniques, local anesthetic techniques, and appendectomy really became widespread. John's popularity will surpass Bergman's, and even close to Liszt and Bierrot and others!

So when Wolfgang had finished paying his respects, Bergman was the first to walk up to John and give him a warm hug: "Congratulations John, I must admit that I chose you to be my student and promised you to carry out this research." Probably one of the best decisions of my life! ”

"It is my pleasure too, sir!"

Clenching his arms hard, John said gratefully.

No matter what happened between the two, John couldn't forget how Jì Bergman helped him, and for the teacher who left his name in the history of surgery. He has always had a lot of respect in his heart, and it has never changed because of anything!

After Bergman let go of John, everyone else stepped forward to congratulate John one by one, especially Hines said solemnly: "Mr. Huntelaar, you are now at the pinnacle of surgery, and German Medicine will always welcome any of your papers, no matter what field of study it belongs to!" ”

As a veteran journal editor, Hines is no worse than Wolfgang or Bergman, so it is natural to see some of the true value of John's research!

But on the other hand, he values John more as a person!

A physician who only needs some time to accumulate can reach the top of surgery in this era, and what is even more terrifying is his age, which is only in his early twenties. Even if John doesn't open up new fields of research in the future, if he only continues to expand in the fields of local anesthesia and abdominal surgery, it will be enough for him to stand on the top of the whole world!

What's more, young people who have pioneered so many fields in just one or two years may rest on their laurels and stagnate?

This kind of physician who shows amazing strength at a young age is the most valued author resource in medical journals, even more important than those bigwigs, and Hines naturally can't fail to see this. In fact, he came today precisely because he was always paying attention to the situation here, and he sensitively discovered the importance of today, otherwise where would he have met so coincidentally?

Merely......

"Peak?"

After hearing Hines's words, John smiled and was noncommittal.

What kind of pinnacle is this?

Squeezed Hines's right hand hard, and John's face was indifferent. It's just a sterile operation, a local anesthesia and an appendectomy, even if you don't count the countless surgical procedures in the future, in terms of basic theory alone, there are still theories of humoral and acid-base balance, blood transfusion, shock, intensive care, analgesia, perioperative management, metabolism and nutrition, infection, etc., which have not yet been proposed or perfected......
