Chapter 714: Surgical Accident
Guo Xiang had a general understanding of the condition and returned to the outpatient clinic to find Song Tingshen.
"I heard you just went to the HIV ward?" Song Tingshen asked, it was An Zehan who came to tell him.
"Well, has Mr. Song decided to help him with the operation?" Guo Xiang asked, "I can help together." ”
Song Tingshen looked at her in surprise, "You're not afraid?" ”
"Maybe you don't know about AIDS, it's a very serious disease, there is no specific medicine to treat it, once it gets on, it's almost death, and it's easy to get infected." Song Tingshen said.
Guo Xiang nodded, in fact, she knows better than anyone else, she is from the later generations, there are many people who have this disease in the later generations, and there are also many drugs and methods for treatment, although it cannot be cured, but many people's lives have been greatly improved after treatment, and some people can even live like normal people.
But this is a dangerous time.
"What I know is that AIDS is a very harmful infectious disease, which is caused by infection with the HIV virus, mainly through mother-to-child transmission, blood transmission and bodily fluid infection, and bodily fluids are mainly transmitted by apricot life."
"HIV is mainly a virus that attacks the body's immune system, which can continue to cause a decrease in the number of immune cells, and eventually cause the immune system to be paralyzed, and it is easy to be infected with various diseases and tumors in the later stage. And now there is no cure! Guo Xiang said.
Song Tingshen was shocked, he didn't expect Guo Xiang to even know so much about this, is there anything she doesn't understand?
Guo Xiang saw Song Tingshen's expression and suddenly realized that he had said too much, and smiled, "Actually, I also learned about it by reading some foreign medical magazines, and Mr. Song, you also know that I am good at foreign languages." ”
"Then you should know that it is very risky to operate on this patient, in case you get ...... infection" Song Tingshen looked at Guo Xiang.
"I understand, in fact, if you take protective measures, you should be fine." Guo Xiang said, "I believe that Mr. Song will also make some preparations since he accepts this patient, right?" ”
Song Tingshen nodded, "I have contacted foreign doctors to send me some detection reagents and virus blocking drugs, if I accidentally get infected, there is still a way, our main task now is to remove the tumor, as for AIDS, I can't do anything, I can only let him return to China for treatment or think of other ways." ”
"But since he has been infected with AIDS, is it also very bad for liver cancer?" Guo Xiang asked.
"Yes." Song Tingshen nodded, "The patient's immunity is already low, and the tumor will develop faster, but fortunately, there has been no metastasis and surgery can be done now, so we should start the operation as soon as possible, as soon as the blockade drug arrives." ”
Guo Xiang nodded, "I can participate together, An Zehan looks at himself, as for the surgical nurse...... Does anyone want to? ”
"I have already agreed with a nurse to give her a triple bonus this month and ensure that the protective measures are taken well, and she has agreed." Song Tingshen said.
Guo Xiang nodded, this is also a helpless thing, it is normal for everyone to be afraid, and they can't be forced.
Two days later, the reagents and blocking drugs arrived, and everyone began to prepare for the patient's operation.
On the day of the operation, everyone was fully armed.
In addition to surgical gowns, gloves and masks, goggles were also worn.
Although the patient has not yet become ill, he or she has the virus in his blood, and if blood is splashed in his eyes during the operation, he or she will become infected, so be prepared.
The anesthesiologist was also in place, and although he was only standing on the sidelines, he was also fully armed.
An Zehan also came, he hesitated, but Teacher Song and Guo Xiang were involved, he didn't want to fall behind, and the three of them have always been a trinity, so he felt embarrassed not to go this time.
Besides, this is also a rare case, if this time is successful, there will be similar patients in the future, and it will also be a good experience for his medical career.
Song Tingshen is the main knife, Guo Xiang is the first assistant, and An Zehan is the second assistant.
The surgical nurse has always been nervous, after all, once the disease is infected, there is no cure, if the disease starts a year or two quickly, it will die, and it is impossible not to be afraid.
"Don't be nervous, just pay attention as usual." Guo Xiang said to the operating nurse.
And she mainly hands the equipment on the side, which is generally not dangerous.
"Whew......" The surgical nurse took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes, Dr. Wang, I'm ready." ”
The anesthesiologist on the other side was also ready and nodded to Song Tingshen.
Guo Xiang applied iodophor to the patient's abdomen and covered it with a sterile cloth, exposing only the parts that needed to be operated.
The surgical nurse handed over the scalpel, and Song Tingshen took the scalpel and cut it into the abdomen.
In fact, this surgery is no different from usual, it is a general tumor resection, the only difference is that the patient is infected with HIV.
But surgery is no different, just take care not to get hurt during the operation and not to splash blood on dangerous areas.
The surgery went smoothly, the tumor was removed, and then sutured.
Finally, the abdomen is sutured and the wound is bandaged.
Perfect, nothing happened.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The surgical nurse finally put her mind at ease, and it was okay, okay.
She held a plate of used instruments to the side, and suddenly her feet slipped, her hand was raised, and the whole plate of surgical instruments flew towards Guo Xiang behind her.
"Be careful!" An Zehan on the other side shouted.
Guo Xiang subconsciously blocked it with his hand, and the instrument hit her body and fell, falling to the ground with a bang.
"Are you alright?" Song Tingshen was taken aback.
"No, it's okay......" Guo Xiang was also shocked, it was too sudden just now.
"Quick, check if there's any damage?" Song Tingshen shouted, and the people who had always been light and light also panicked.
The surgical nurse on the side was so frightened that tears fell, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"
An Zehan hurriedly inspected Guo Xiang's body, looked up and down, although there was a little blood on the surgical gown, there was no problem, as long as Guo Xiang had no wounds, it would be fine.
Suddenly, An Zehan exclaimed, "Your hand! ”
Guo Xiang noticed that there seemed to be a little pain on the back of his hand, and his face turned white when he saw it.
The rubber glove on his hand was scratched, and blood was oozing inside.
This is a surgical instrument that has just been used on a patient, and it is still stained with the patient's blood.
It should have been punctured by a flying scalpel or surgical scissors just now.
"Quick, go rinse right away, go get the blocking pill!" Song Tingshen shouted.
Guo Xiang's mind was blank, and the whole person was confused.
An Zehan's tears welled up at once,
Pulling Guo Xiang and running outside, taking off her gloves and rinsing desperately under the faucet, shedding tears while washing.
Song Tingshen ran back to the office to get the blocking medicine, and when he came back, An Zehan had already used alcohol to detoxify Guo Xiang's hands and bandaged them, but Guo Xiang's whole person was still stunned.
Song Tingshen was very distressed and self-reproachful when he saw her like that, he had long known that this operation was dangerous, why did he have to let them participate, it was enough for him to do it alone, why let them take this risk?
