Chapter 89: Harvard Invitation
Ventricular fibrillation is the most serious and fatal arrhythmia, and it only takes 60 seconds for the patient to die.
I have defibrillated many times, but the patient's condition is still not improving.
Zhou Wei and the others closed their eyes and sighed helplessly: "Xiao Ran, close your chest."
In many cases, it's not that doctors don't want to save them, it's that mortals really don't have the superpower to recover from heaven.
Xia Xingran stood in front of the operating table, staring at the patient's heart, his brain running at high speed.
Zhou Wei and the others on the side found out that something was wrong with Xia Xingran, and hurriedly urged: "Xiao Ran, why are you still stunned, don't be obsessed, close your chest."
Xia Xingran glanced at the needle and thread handed over by Bai Moyan, but did not answer. Then an exclamation rang out from the operating room.
Xia Xingran once again put his hands into the patient's chest.
Without any intervention camera, Xia Xingran's actions were tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
Everyone involuntarily condensed their facial features, and looked at Xia Xingran with goosebumps.
"Doctor Xia, this is going to squeeze out the blood from the heart with his bare hands?"
"My God. What kind of operation is this? I've only heard of pressing the epidermis with bare hands, but how can the heart be fine?"
A group of doctors were dumbfounded, and some couldn't help but slap themselves in the face twice to make sure they weren't dreaming.
"This kid is too nonsense, it's just a temporary adjustment operation, and now it's just a child's play on the patient's life! It's not like that!"
Song Dong and Wang Ji began to regret that they had given Xia Xingran the opportunity to participate in the operation, and stomped their feet and accused with displeasure on their faces.
Xia Xingran turned a deaf ear to everything around her, she operated with both hands, perfectly controlling the strength and flow rate. Artificially giving blood to the heart reduces the patient's organ ischemia and delays the patient's death and organ failure.
A few minutes later, the patient's vital data on the monitor really slowly recovered little by little.
Zhou Wei and the others looked at Xia Xingran's operation sluggishly, and swallowed silently. It's an impossible miracle.
"Has the patient's electrolytes been checked?"
However, this is only temporary, and if the cause of ventricular fibrillation cannot be found as soon as possible, the ventricular fibrillation can be relieved, and the heart can be restored to beat on its own, and the artificial pumping operation alone will still fail.
The doctor on the side woke up like a dream and hurriedly organized the nurse to immediately draw blood and send it out for testing.
After a while, the results came out, and sure enough, it was an abnormal discharge of the heart caused by an electrolyte imbalance, which led to ventricular fibrillation.
"Correct electrolyte balance, fast!"
"Brother Mo Yan, I don't have my hands right now, you preside over correcting the patient's internal environment."
Xia Xingran continued to do the work of the artificial heart, and quickly issued a diagnosis and treatment order.
The doctor and nurse next to him immediately injected the patient with potassium chloride and started intravenous magnesium chloride infusion.
Xia Xingran closed his eyes and began to touch the patient's heart with his hands.
"What is she?" Zhou Wei and the others didn't understand, and looked at Bai Moyan on the side.
Bai Moyan let out a "shhh Xiao Ran is feeling the beating power of her heart with her hand."
This is a stunt that Xia Qingyi practiced when he was a war doctor in the past, and Xia Xingran perfectly inherited and learned this technique.
Although Zhou Wei and others understood the principle of this operation, they still couldn't believe that this kind of thing that sounded so mysterious and abstract could really be done and worked?
"It's nonsense, I've never heard of anything like this." Song Dong and Wang Ji glanced at Xia Xingran with disdain.
With Song Dong and Wang Ji's suspicions, the operating room resounded with the sound of pointing and questioning.
"You can start defibrillating again."
After a while, Xia Xingran finally felt the normal pulsating force coming from his heart, and motioned to defibrillate again.
Everyone was a little skeptical, because they had defibrillated more than ten times before, but it had no effect.
"Don't worry, this time it will work." Xia Xing
Ran took his hand out of the patient's chest and nodded to the rest of the doctors.
There is a natural magic in her that makes people unconsciously want to get close and want to believe.
In everyone's hearts, the defibrillator was turned on again.
Regular ripples began to appear on the ECG monitor, and the patient's blood pressure and blood oxygen began to rise steadily.
"I'll you!"
"Defibrillation worked!"
"Isn't this really magic?"
Zhou Wei and the others and all the doctors and nurses present stared at the screen in disbelief, revealing a dazed and overwhelmed expression.
Song Dong and Wang Ji personally checked it and made sure that it was really a successful defibrillation, their eyes flickered, and their faces suddenly turned red and white.
With a long exhalation, Xia Xingran's whole person finally relaxed.
"Xiao Ran, you're too tired, go and rest, I'll just close my chest."
Bai Moyan saw Xia Xingran lying on her back, her face became more and more pale, and she knew that she was exhausted after nearly 12 hours of surgery, so she hurriedly asked the nurse to help her sit down and rest, and do the final finishing work by herself.
After a full 12 hours, the operation was over. The patient is wheeled out of the operating room.
"After the operation, the foreign body was removed, and all the blood clots were removed. Now your father will be transferred to the intensive care unit for observation, and when he is able to breathe on his own without other complications from the ventilator, he will be fine."
Xia Xingran held on to his last breath and said to the patient's family members waiting outside the operating room.
The patient's daughter folded her hands and hated to kneel down for Xia Xingran. Xia Xingran waved his hand hurriedly, and then accompanied by Bai Moyan, he went to the lounge to rest.
Han Chenluo and the others had been waiting for a long time, but now when they saw them coming, they immediately got up and handed the prepared sugar water to Xia Xingran and Bai Moyan.
"Sister Su Wanwan said that you have been operating for so long, you will definitely not be able to bear it, drink some sugar water to replenish it first."
Xia Xingran took the disposable paper cup and looked at Su Wanwan and smiled lightly. Su Wanwan snorted and turned her head away.
"Xia Xingran." She had just finished drinking the water when she heard a stern voice.
"Do you know that it is a very serious mistake to adjust the surgical plan on the fly. If the surgery has just failed, can you afford the responsibility? Shall we all come along?"
Although Xia Xingran's medical skills are indeed outstanding, Zhou Wei can't let her develop this kind of reckless habit, which will do more harm than good to her future growth.
Han Chenluo on the side didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, he rushed up and was about to complain for Xia Xingran, Bai Moyan was probably really tired, standing aside quietly, sipping sugar water in a small sip, and half-raising his eyes to observe quietly.
Xia Xingran hurriedly stopped Han Chenluo. It was indeed her fault, she lowered her head and bent down, and said humbly and seriously, "Yes......
Before she could say anything, Zhou Wei helped her up, and then gently scratched her nose in Xia Xingran's doubts.
"However, the rules are set by people, and everything must come first in the patient's life. Your judgment and operation just now simply amazed the four of us who have been practicing medicine for 30 years. This is really a talented person from all generations!"
Song Dong and Wang Ji also gave a thumbs up and praised: "I have heard the name for a long time, and it is like thunder. When I saw it today, I realized that what I said was true, and no one might believe it, a medical student who had just graduated could operate three fourth-level surgeries alone! It's a rarity in the world!"
Before, Song Dong and Wang Ji thought that Xia Xingran was just a packaging product under the traffic, but after witnessing a number of miracles with their own eyes today, they seemed to have been slapped hundreds of times, and their faces were hot and embarrassed.
This relay of life has touched the hearts of countless Chinese people, so the media gathered outside the hospital has been rising one after another.
Xia Xingran rested and ate something, as the chief surgeon, she could only follow Zhou Wei out and explain and answer the whole process of the operation to the media one by one.
Allen, a professor of surgery at Harvard University, is on academic exchanges
Concentrate.
As an insider, he was very curious about Xia Xingran's temporary change of the more difficult pulmonary artery thromboendarterectomy, and the independent operation to complete such a complex operation with super level 4 difficulty.
Although Xia Xingran's words are very one-sided and concise, Allen, who has many years of coaching experience, can still quickly get a glimpse of the unusual doorway in this operation.
He has a hunch that this is a good seedling that is worth fighting for, and he must win Xia Xingran, a new medical star, for the country!
So he immediately called a car, rushed to the door of the Jiaxiang County People's Hospital before the end of the interview, and struggled to squeeze in through the reporter's encirclement.
Allen, who is tall and has a pure foreign-looking appearance, looks out of place in a group of Chinese, and it is difficult not to attract everyone's attention.
Without waiting for Xia Xingran to ask, Alan first showed his credentials as a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School, stretched out his hand to Xia Xingran, and said in broken Chinese:
"Miss Xia Xingran, on behalf of Harvard Medical School, I would like to extend a sincere invitation to you. Would you like to go with me to China to receive the best medical education in the world, and work with the world's top doctors to develop the Nobel Prize in Medicine project developed by the country this year?"
