The next day, Xu Wei took his father to the hospital for a detailed examination, Guo Xiang took a good look at the various checklists, and nodded, "It should be possible to do interventional treatment." ”

"That's great!" Xu Wei was overjoyed, and he couldn't imagine that he could really do it.

"Then get ready and do the interventional treatment." Guo Xiang said.

I called Dr. Xing Ming over, although he can't, but after all, he is still a cardiothoracic surgeon, he can be an assistant, and by the way, he can also learn, maybe he can do treatment alone in the future.

Xu Wei also applied to enter the operating room to watch, he was very curious.

Everything is ready, and the sterilization work must be strictly adhered to as in a normal operation.

Xu's father was lying on the operating table, and Guo Xiang asked the anesthesiologist to do a local anesthetic.

Interventional treatment only requires local anesthesia and does not require general anesthesia, which reduces the risk of general anesthesia in the elderly.

In front of him is an X-ray machine with a monitoring screen on the side, from which you can see the catheter entering the blood vessels of the human body.

A small incision of a few millimeters is made in the femoral artery of the leg and the catheter is threaded through the incision.

People who see it for the first time may be shocked, it turns out that it is possible to stuff things into the veins? Doesn't that hurt?

The catheter is a bit like a wire and looks a little scary.

From the screen, you can see that the catheter goes little by little into the blood vessels, slowly moving towards the heart.

Guo Xiang is staring at the screen while sending the catheter in her hand in, in fact, she has perspective to see directly in the body, but now she is in treatment, so she naturally has to follow the regular method, but sometimes she will also look inside by herself, after all, it is more intuitive to see directly.

When the catheter reaches the coronary artery of the heart, it has been examined to know which is the narrowed artery, and the blood vessel is injected with a contrast agent, and the X-ray machine can also see all aspects of the blood flow, so you can know the specific location.

When the catheter reached the target, Guo Xiang made a movement of his hand, only to see that a thinner line appeared in the catheter, going into the blood vessels, and then she pressed something, and the line was stretched out like an umbrella.

It turned out that it was not a thread, it was a very thin stent, but it was bundled at first, and this opening held up the narrow blood vessels, and it was obvious that the blood flow increased.

In fact, interventional therapy has been used in many aspects in later generations, such as liver cancer tumors, uterine fibroids, and thrombosis.

Like the case of blood clots, the equipment in the catheter is different, it will stretch out a line and open like a forceps to crush the blood clot, and then a straw will extend out on the side to suck the crushed blood clot away, so that the blood vessel blockage can be cleared.

It's hard to look like there are so many things in the catheter of only a few Haomi, so you have to use microscopic and imaging equipment, otherwise there is no way to see and do it.

The stent in the coronary artery was propped up, and the thin line inside was retracted. Then Guo Xiang slowly pulled out the catheter and did another place.

This time, a total of two brackets were placed.

When it was done, Guo Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he hadn't done it for a long time, but fortunately, his hands were not rusty yet.

After the incision, the incision is only a small wound, which is not at all like heart surgery and chest opening, so most people can't stand it.

Xing Ming and Xu Wei both looked at Guo Xiang in admiration, Dean Guo really didn't brag, she really knew how to do it.

They all sweated for her.

Although it looks simple, they all know that it is not easy, such a thin tube, such a long catheter has to be stretched in, and it has to enter the blood vessels of the heart, the heart is still beating, in case the operation is not good, the consequences are unimaginable.

"You can be sent to the ward." Guo Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, "If you want to stay in bed for 24 hours and not move, this vascular sheath should be kept for 6 to 12 hours, don't pull it out casually, and after 12 hours of pulling, you should press and bandage it for 24 hours, and the sandbag should be pressurized to stop bleeding, and this leg can't move......"

Because it is a femoral artery, if the bleeding is not stopped, it is likely that the blood will not stop flowing out, and the consequences will be very serious.

Then Guo Xiang said some postoperative matters, such as adding 1,000 to 1,500 liters of rehydration, because contrast is added to the blood, and only rehydration can accelerate metabolism.

There are also anticoagulant hemostasis, pay attention to a light diet and so on.

"When can I get up and move?" Xu Wei asked.

"You can move 24 to 48 hours after surgery, but it's best to just stay in bed and walk slowly when you have fully recovered your strength. At least half a month of hospitalization. Guo Xiang said.

"Then I'll have to take a leave of absence." Father Xu said.

Because it was a local anesthetic, he was awake.

"Let Mom help you invite, you will definitely be able to ask for leave after surgery, and the unit will not be unreasonable, and besides, you are about to retire, and they will not deliberately make it difficult for you to live." Xu Wei said, "Now your body is important, you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

Father Xu nodded, I really didn't expect that the illness that had been going on for so long would really be cured like this?

"But in the future, we still have to pay attention to rest, don't do heavy physical work, eat lightly, reduce oil and salt, and live a regular life. People who do stents have about a 1 percent chance of developing blood clots in the future, and they need to take aspirin for a year to prevent ......," Guo Xiang said.

"Yes, I'll pay attention to that." Xu Wei nodded, as long as you let your family pay more attention to the postoperative matters, it all depends on yourself.

Mother Xu was already waiting outside the operating room, for fear that something would happen.

It's strange when I see my wife coming out and still sober, is it in such a good state?

"The treatment was successful, don't worry, Mom, I'll tell you about it slowly." Xu Wei said.

Mother Xu was overjoyed, "Thank you, thank you Dean Guo!" "Now they know that this Dean Guo is really capable.

"You're welcome." Guo Xiang smiled.

Back in the ward, Xu's father was also very emotional, this hospital is really good, his illness for so long has been cured like this, and the conditions of this ward are really good, like a hotel.

Because there are few patients now, he lives in a two-person room and he is alone, like a private room.

Everywhere is clean and tidy, and the nurses have a good attitude, which is simply incomparable with the public.

It's just that there are too few patients now.

He was a little worried about Guo Xiang.

"Dad, you now know that I didn't lie to you, do you?" Xu Wei said.

"It's good here, but can you really be reused here? I don't see many patients. Father Xu said.

"Dad, that's because there are still many people who don't know about this hospital, and there are many people who know it but don't believe in the good things here like you, so we are going to publicize it now, and we want to advertise it, and if there are more people who will be cured in the future, there will definitely be more patients who will come, and I am not afraid that it will not develop when the time comes...... Xu Wei said.

"Yes, I see that the doctors and nurses here are so good, and the patients will be in a good mood when they come to see the doctor, like that public hospital, as if they owe them 800 yuan...... Mother Xu also said.

"It's not cheap to cure today, is it?" Father Xu asked.

"It's probably a few thousand." Xu Wei said, "Those equipment are all imported, and the stents are all passable, and there are medicines, and I have to live in the hospital for so long......

"So, aren't we taking advantage of it?" Father Xu was a little reluctant to go, a few thousand, not dozens or hundreds of dollars.

"It is not bad for President Guo to run such a big hospital, so we have to cooperate with her to publicize it, so that more people know about this treatment and benefit more people!" Xu Wei said.
