Chapter 646: Patients, Families, and Doctors Work Together to Repay the Teacher's Kindness
There are no less than 400 cases of diseases in the extraterrestrial realm that have been cured by his hands.
This includes 23 cases of extreme difficulty that were sentenced to death by other hospitals. It was all caused by the crest nerve damage caused by car accident injuries, high fall injuries or waist pressure training, and after his careful surgery, supplemented by the patient's own tenacious exercise, he finally recovered some or almost all of the nerve function.
The success of these surgeries not only earned Zhou Can a high reputation, made him a famous doctor in the field of extraterrestrials, but also allowed him to accumulate more experience in the treatment and diagnosis of the spinal nerve.
Many of these insights and insights cannot be learned from other doctors.
Even Wu Baihe would often come to him now to discuss some difficult neurological cases.
Each doctor has his or her own understanding and comprehension, way of thinking, direction of thinking, and comprehensive application of medical knowledge, even including the application of surgical knowledge and experience in the treatment plan, which are all crucial.
Don't look at Zhou Can, who has been following Wu Baihe to learn surgical knowledge and medical knowledge in the field of extraterrestrial surgery.
However, the perception of the same case may be very different between the two people.
For example, they treated a lumbar spine injury case together, and the worker was unfortunately pierced through his body by steel bars while working on the construction site. In addition to the damage to the intestines, peritoneum and other organs and tissues of the abdominal cavity, the most serious is lumbar spine injury.
By the time the patient arrived at the hospital, he was completely unconscious.
Later, after emergency rescue surgery, the steel bar was removed and the damaged intestine in the abdominal cavity was repaired. Zhou Can personally debrided the patient to ensure that the probability of abdominal infection was minimized.
After the operation, the patient had mild peritonitis, but with timely medication and nutritional support, he survived with his good physical foundation and immunity.
After the abdominal injury healed, the patient's life was saved, but the lower body remained unconscious.
According to this situation, the patient needs to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair or hospital bed, unable to take care of himself, and needs to be taken care of by his family for the rest of his life.
On the morning of urging his family to be discharged from the hospital, Zhou Can remembered it very clearly.
After his rounds in the emergency department, he routinely went to the inpatient department of the Department of Neurosurgery to check on the inpatients who had been under his hands or who he had been involved in.
I happened to see the nurse urging the patient's family to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible.
Unlike small hospitals, which are eager to let patients live until they are old, Tuya Hospital has a shortage of beds and strict assessment standards. If the patient is not cured for a long time and stays in the hospital for too long, this will deduct money and points.
In fact, even if it is a small hospital, there is an evaluation mechanism, not an in-hospital assessment, but a set of assessment standards for the competent department.
Then the small hospital often staged the operation of releasing the patient for 15 days and then re-admitting the patient.
Some people even revealed that some elderly people actually have no illness, and they are just pulled over by hospital doctors like business, and let them be hospitalized. During the day, four elderly people play a table, playing mahjong or cards, including food and accommodation.
You can also go home and stay at night.
You don't have to spend a penny.
Because of the money from the health insurance.
Tuya, on the other hand, is the complete opposite, as long as you feel that the patient's body is almost recovered, or that the patient is fully qualified to go home to recuperate, you will immediately urge you to be discharged.
At that time, the patient who was unconscious was half-sitting on the hospital bed, and his wife and two children were standing in front of the bed, bringing him water, brushing his teeth and washing his face.
The nurse urged them to be discharged, and both the family and the patient agreed.
After all, staying here for a day is not cheap.
More expensive than staying in a hotel.
As a result, the patient saw Zhou Can come in for rounds and looked at Zhou Can with an almost pleading look.
"Doctor Zhou, thank you and Director Wu for saving my life. I'm paralyzed now, and now I have to take care of my wife when I eat, drink, and Lazar, and I have an older child at home who is in junior high school, which can make them live for the four of them! Please, find a way to help me heal again!"
The man sat on the bed and arched at Zhou Can, begging Zhou Can to help him treat his lower body paralysis.
The patient's hand can be seen
The upper skin is rough and covered with scars from injuries.
"Uncle Doctor, please help my father!"
The two children are very sensible, the younger one is less than three years old, and the older one is just over four years old.
They all knelt in front of Zhou Can and begged him to heal their father.
"Two children, hurry up! Your father's lumbar spine is seriously injured, it's not that I don't help him, but my ability is limited, and the current level of medical technology and level is difficult to heal this kind of trauma to the central nervous system of the spine."
Zhou Can pulled the two children up, looked at this scene, and to be honest, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
The patient's wife remained silent.
When Zhou Can finished checking the room and was about to leave, he could see that the man's eyes were full of despair.
The two children were lying on the edge of the bed, looking at their father.
The female family chased them out.
"Doctor Chow, can you please think of a way? At least to give my husband hope to live, he has already carried me behind my back and secretly wrote a suicide note with his mobile phone. I can't live without my husband, and my three children can't live without their father. No matter how much suffering I suffer, no matter how much sin I suffer, I am willing to do it. Even if he can't get up for the rest of his life, I'm willing to take care of him. I just want you to give him a hope to live, okay?"
Her eyes welled up with tears.
This woman should be a bit cultured.
At least the wisdom and ideas she showed made Zhou Can awe-inspired.
To be honest, what I see most in the hospital is the cruel reality and dark humanity.
Many women or men, when they learn that their other half is paralyzed for life or become a vegetative person, choose to say goodbye without saying goodbye and lose contact directly.
And the most hateful, caring people in the society donated money to the female patient for treatment.
As a result, the man's roll ran away.
The woman was left crying to death in the hospital, committing suicide seven times, and then had to send two nurses to monitor the female patient 24 hours a day.
Zhou Can looked at this woman's pleading eyes, and his heart was softened.
"That's okay, I'll discuss with Director Wu again, don't go through the discharge first. You can try to have a second surgery on your husband, but no one can predict what the final result will be. Anyway, he is now paralyzed in his lower body, and the worst result is that he can't be cured and needs to be paralyzed for a lifetime. If the treatment is successful, he can get back on his feet, which will be of great benefit to your family, to you, and to your children."
Zhou Can would not have said these words to his family members easily.
Because some family members secretly recorded the recording, they were not cured at that time, and directly attacked the doctors.
Even take the doctor to court.
What do you think the family wants to do when they sue the doctor? They want to claim a large sum of money from the hospital to ensure that the patient's losses are compensated.
This practice must have chilled the doctor's heart.
It's just that there is no way, and some family members are like this.
"Dr. Zhou, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, please help my husband with his treatment. Even if I smash the pot and sell iron, I will also make up the medical expenses. No matter what the end result is, I can accept it."
This woman is really good.
Sometimes, if a man can marry a virtuous and virtuous wife, he can definitely prosper for three generations, which is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes.
After the family agreed, Zhou Can consulted with Wu Baihe.
Wu Baihe believes that the patient has a damaged nerve in the lumbar spine crest, which cannot be repaired.
After research, Zhou Can found that the patient was not completely damaged by the spinal nerve, but also had compression of the spinal nerve caused by damage to the lumbar vertebrae, which was a double damage.
It is clinically rare.
It is a condition that is caused by more than two causes at the same time.
Later, after in-depth research and discussion between the two, Wu Baihe believed that Zhou Can's discovery was correct.
Next, a complete set of surgical repair plans was formulated for the patient, Zhou Can personally operated on the surgery, and Wu Baihe retreated into the background and swept the formation.
Because multiple surgeries are required, the cost is high.
Especially the repair of the vertebrae
The complex is extremely complex.
The total cost is more than 370,000 yuan.
This is an astronomical amount for this impoverished family that has already emptied their finances.
Zhou Can used his influence to launch a fundraiser for patients online.
Maybe the little advertorial is well written, or the patient's family situation has aroused the sympathy and love of many people. In just one day, more than 420,000 yuan was raised, and after Zhou Can found out, he stopped the fundraising in time.
The extra 50,000 yuan can be used as the patient's future rehabilitation expenses.
After five surgeries, the patient's lower body is still paralyzed, but pain has been regained and the knee bouncing reflex has been developed.
Zhou Can boldly predicted that the patient's spinal nerve had been successfully repaired, and he only needed to adhere to scientific and reasonable rehabilitation training to hope for standing up again.
I still remember that after about five months, one day, Zhou Can suddenly received a call from the patient's wife.
"Dr. Chow, I have good news for you, my husband can urinate on his own today."
Patients with paralysis of the lower body are often accompanied by incontinence.
The ability for patients to regain the ability to urinate spontaneously is a huge step forward.
The patient's wife on the other end of the phone was choked.
It should be in a state of excitement with tears of joy.
Zhou Can encouraged her to let the patient stick to the rehabilitation training, and she could try to start the second stage of rehabilitation training.
Of course, the help of the patient's wife must be indispensable behind this.
For example, helping the patient lift their legs, helping the patient to stand up, and so on.
Moreover, the degree of pain of this kind of rehabilitation training is extremely high, whether it is the patient or the family, as long as one party cannot persevere, the previous efforts will be lost.
About three months later, Zhou Can has cured many difficult cases of central nervous system injuries outside the gods at this time, and his popularity is already very high. Even the nerve centers within the skull, which he has been able to handle.
Only the brainstem area remains semi-off-limit.
In the peripheral area, he can deal with it, but the core area still does not dare to cross the thunder pool for half a point.
Because it's too dangerous.
If the patient is treated to death, or if it causes a greater area of disability, paralysis, or loss of organ function, it is a very serious medical malpractice.
The brainstem is the main nerve center of the whole body, and sometimes a small inconspicuous trauma can directly cause the patient to lose spontaneous breathing.
Not kidding.
This happened when they rescued a car accident patient.
On this day, Zhou Can was operating on a patient in the operating room of the emergency department. He heard a nurse run in and tell him that there was a lion dance team outside, holding a large pennant.
He said that he was grateful to the two doctors of Tuya Hospital, Zhou Can and Wu Baihe, for curing his paralysis, and specially invited the lion dance team to drive more than 600 kilometers to thank him.
Zhou Can handed over the operation in his hand to the two doctors and went out to check.
Good guys, there is a lion dance team outside, with a gong and drum team, just like the New Year.
I was dancing hard outside the emergency department, and I was having fun.
The person at the front of the line held a banner in his hand and had a big smile on his face.
The two people holding the banner were none other than the paralyzed man and his wife.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Can felt very relieved and happy.
After treatment and rehabilitation, the patient finally performed a medical miracle and got back on his feet.
When he walks, his lower limbs are still a little stiff, but as long as he continues to exercise, it should be no different from a normal person in a few months.
Curing this patient is not Zhou Can's work alone.
He called Wu Baihe, threw him a word, and quickly accepted the pennant and let the patient go. Don't block the life lane of the hospital.
Hearing that Zhou Can was going to let the patient take the lion dance team to the neurosurgery, Wu Baihe was even more anxious.
Threaten him to do so, telling him not to go to neurosurgery in the future.
Love fame and fortune, this is human
Nature.
But after reaching the level of Wu Baihe, he looked at fame and fortune instead.
Zhou Can accepted the pennants sent by the patients and their families, and after thanking them, he quickly dispersed the band and lion dance team.
Unexpectedly, this incident was unexpectedly in the news, and various media rushed to report it.
Zhou Can's fame in the realm of the gods has risen by more than one dimension at once.
After becoming famous, more patients came to visit.
Every patient longs for a doctor to help them relieve their suffering and cure their illness.
Zhou Can's ability and energy are actually very limited.
Most of the patients who came to the department flocked to the neurosurgery and were digested by other doctors.
The business volume of the Shen Surgery Department skyrocketed, which made Wu Baihe a little overjoyed and very happy for a while.
Zhou Can saw that the time was almost ripe.
On this day, he drove alone to an officially controlled area of the city.
The area is full of greenery, and you can see buildings in the background. Those who can live here must be powerful.
Standing guard at the door was a sentry, standing tall.
There are not many places in the entire provincial capital that can have such high-standard security.
Zhou Can's Mercedes Benz slowly drove to the entrance.
Undoubtedly, directly stopped.
"Hello, I'm Zhou Can, a doctor from Tuya Hospital, this is my work card, and my ID card, I came to visit Mr. Song Dingxian."
This Mr. Song Dingxian is none other than the patient who had a medical accident with Dr. Xu.
It also changed the fate of Dr. Xu's life.
Zhou Can has long had the idea of repaying his teacher's kindness, and he has been preparing for it all these years, and now he has this condition.
Although he is not completely sure, it is enough for him to be qualified to meet Mr. Song Dingxian.
"Do you have an appointment?"
"Nope."
"Wait a minute, we'll let you know."
The sentry was very polite to Zhou Can, and went back to the sentry box directly to call and report.
