Chapter 413: Teach by hand
When I heard that it was an advanced stage of stomach cancer, the patient and his family were in despair.
Because stomach cancer is advanced, it is not a word "chronic disease" that can be described.
No matter what cancer is advanced, the survival rate is very low.
"Dr. Zhou, my mother's condition ......," the patient's daughter was about to cry as she spoke, "Is there really no way?" β
Her husband's eyes burned and he was full of anticipation.
It is said that Dr. Zhou of the Iris Clinic is the top in North America, and he can often create incredible miracles, but I don't know if it will work this time?
When it is the turn of my family, I am always endlessly melancholy and doubly worried.
Nanako Chiba and Grace have been following Zhou Qiao, and at this time, the two pairs of beautiful eyes are also looking at him.
Grace muttered to herself, if she had to deal with it alone, she really felt helpless.
After all, although she is a genius, not long after she graduated, she was already very good at winning the national championship in the field of minimally invasive cardiac surgery.
Zhou Qiao pondered for a few seconds, and then said, "I can't perform surgery for the time being......"
The hearts of the patient's family immediately fell to the bottom, and the sense of loss was beyond words.
Who knows, Zhou Qiao changed his words and hurriedly said: "Not having surgery for the time being does not mean giving up treatment. β
He didn't mean to sell Guanzi, he didn't finish a sentence, and the interval in between was very short. But the patient's family is too worried.
As soon as the second half of Zhou Qiao's sentence came out, the patient's family was in high spirits.
Zhou Qiao further explained: "In addition to the stomach tumor, your mother also has severe anemia, and the hemoglobin is only half of that of a normal person, and her nutritional status is extremely poor. β
"In addition, she is also a rare Rh-negative 'panda blood'. Therefore, if the conditions for surgery cannot be met temporarily, supportive treatment needs to be given first to solve these problems before starting tumor treatment. β
"Nanako, you go and contact the blood station and get a suitable blood source as soon as possible."
Nanako Chiba nodded lightly, left immediately, and began to act.
The U.S. has an efficient blood distribution system that can be deployed from all of North America. Even precious panda blood, as long as there is money, can basically be delivered to the patient's bedside within 24 hours.
The patient's family condition is okay and he is willing to treat his mother.
"Dr. Grace, can you operate a gastroscope, place a nasojejunal feeding tube on the patient, establish a nutrient channel, and provide enteral nutrition support to the patient?" Zhou Qiao looked at Grace again and asked.
Grace immediately said, "I will." β
"Well, let's do it now." Zhou Qiao nodded as a sign of encouragement.
After Grace agreed, she immediately went to make preparations, but suddenly she was a little annoyed, and she said that such a good opportunity to teach me was given up by herself.
Perhaps, you can also get close to him when teaching, such as touching his eight-pack abs with your elbow, waist or hips?
So far, Grace has not touched Zhou Qiao's eight-pack abs, and it has almost become an obsession.
During this time, Zhou Qiao taught her, but almost all of them were with Nanako Chiba, which is equivalent to Zhou Qiao with two, so it is often not very convenient.
Soon, Grace's professional operation solved the problem of the patient's inability to eat.
And Nanako Chiba also mobilized blood sources and began to give blood transfusions to patients.
After a series of professional supportive treatments, the nutritional status of the patient's body improved.
"Now is the time to really start cancer treatment." Zhou Qiao took the proposed treatment plan and explained it to the patient's family in the consultation room of the iris clinic.
"There has never been a unified prescription for cancer treatment, and it needs to be personalized according to the actual situation of the patient."
Grace listened from the side and nodded in agreement. This is also the time to test the true skill of doctors.
Zhou Qiao continued: "My clinic team and I have repeatedly pondered your mother's examination report, accurately assessed the degree of invasion of the tumor, and after comprehensive discussion, considering that your mother is no longer able to take oral drugs, we decided to implement a personalized treatment strategy for her first. β
"That is, the regimen of intravenous chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy, waiting for the lesion to shrink and achieve a down-stage, and then perform surgery to eradicate the lesion."
β¦β¦
Zhou Qiao explained the treatment plan to the patient's family in simple terms, and tried his best to explain the treatment plan to the patient's family, looking at Zhou Qiao's confident face, the patient's family finally agreed.
After all, in the whole of San Francisco, in the entire Bay Area, the Iris Clinic is the most famous, and it has long overtaken the University of California Medical Center.
Nanako Chiba is good at using medicine, and Zhou Qiao handed it over to her to be responsible.
Grace learns from Nanako Chiba.
It's just that chemotherapy takes time, and during the ward rounds, Zhou Qiao comforted the patients and their families that they must be patient, and then they must be optimistic, and when they meet the conditions for surgery, they will definitely be informed as soon as possible.
And Zhou Qiao believes that this time will not be too long.
β¦β¦
Before the Chinese New Year, there was finally good news from Texas.
With the dual support of the powerful and popular, Luo Ya finally won the Republican nomination with 91% of the votes and was successfully elected as the governor of Texas.
Zhou Qiao bought a plane ticket and flew over to celebrate with Luo Ya.
This kind of big event, you have to open a bottle of good wine worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to celebrate.
Loya's cellar has a collection of red wines worth more than $100,000, the most expensive being a 1945 RomanΓ©e Conti valued at $600,000.
Empty bottles of this wine sell for around $1,500 online. Just like domestic Moutai bottles, there are also people who buy them at a high price.
This time, the two were quite happy, so they opened a bottle, and after fully decanting, the taste was really delicious.
Zhou Qiao brought many New Year's gifts to the babies, and since Zhou Qiao is Chinese, Luo Ya and the baby also had a meaningful Spring Festival.
The children are almost a year old, and Zhou Qiao hasn't told his family yet, so it's a headache to think about.
And Luo Ya is now the governor, and it is even more inconvenient to go to the country. A trip that doesn't alarm many people.
And the dignified governor, go to his hometown in Zhuhai County, drag his children with his mouth, and pay New Year's greetings to his parents, that must not shock the two big countries, oh no, the people of the world.
Therefore, Zhou Qiao thought about it and tried to keep a low profile.
Although, some news can no longer be covered, but ordinary people still do not know.
Luo Ya is very strong and doesn't care about these things, but for the sake of Luo Ya's image, Zhou Qiao still temporarily postponed the plan to take his four sons back to his hometown.
This year, Zhou Qiao spent a huge amount of money, about $1.5 million, to set off a customized version of a super-large firework in Cristmills County - "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".
Loya is in power, and the name is quite meaningful.
Bright as a shower of stars, it illuminates the night sky within a radius of dozens of miles, allowing local residents to fully experience the traditional atmosphere of fireworks during the Chinese New Year.
Of course, there are countless small fireworks of all kinds.
Lots of people took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
Some Chinese people sighed that this is the feeling of returning to China.
The four little babies will call their fathers, Zhou Qiao holds his son every day, and together with Luo Ya, he takes many beautiful photos.
It's not the kind of casual shooting with a mobile phone, but I invited a professional team and a variety of customized clothes to shoot for a full week.
There are also some very precious videos.
Zhou Qiao spent the New Year in Texas, and at the Iris Clinic, the aunt of a patient with advanced stomach cancer has achieved very good results after the careful medication of Nanako Chiba and Grace.
The imaging report showed that the size of the tumor in the aunt's body was significantly reduced, and all the original metastases disappeared. Nutritional status has also improved significantly, and haemoglobin has returned to normal.
Nanako Chiba and Grace called Zhou Qiao and hurried back for surgery.
Zhou Qiao had to reluctantly say goodbye to Luo Ya and the child, and took a plane back to San Francisco.
Luo Ya was very busy when she took office, and she didn't have much time to care about Zhou Qiao's affairs.
Zhou Qiao took Nanako Chiba and Grace to conduct preoperative teaching and drills.
For the two flower-like girls, Zhou Qiao naturally will not hide his secrets, which can be said to be a teaching to each other.
When it came to the actual operation, Nanako Chiba and Grace took turns to get started, and he guided on the side.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Mengjing and Jin Jizhen have grown up and cooperate very well.
The anesthesia team is still Nancy, a senior anesthesiologist at the community hospital, and her nurse anesthetist.
Although the operation was done slowly, it was quite delicate and the quality of the operation was top-notch.
Nanako Chiba and Grace carefully reviewed afterwards, wrote papers, analyzed data, and summarized experiences and gains and losses, which can be said to have gained a lot.
For smart people and people with strong learning ability, a difficult operation can make a huge difference.
Not long after, to the extreme surprise of the patient's family, the aunt was able to eat and drink normally soon, and met the discharge criteria.
The pathology report showed that the cancer cells had completely disappeared!
Even under the microscope, there is not a single trace of cancer cells.
It's quite a joy to have.
When I was discharged from the hospital, my aunt's family sent a lot of bouquets of flowers, as well as a red embroidered gold pennant to express their gratitude.
The aunt was full of emotion: "Dr. Zhou is young and promising, this is a new life for me!" β
When I was first diagnosed, my aunt was simply discouraged, about to collapse, and her stomach cancer was in an advanced stage, and she was ready to die.
Who would have thought that after being a series of programs from the Iris Clinic, it was miraculously "reborn"!
This is a very strong stroke in her life.
In fact, gastric cancer tumors cannot be simply one-size-fits-all. In particular, patients with intermediate and advanced stages, relatively large tumors or multiple metastases often have progressed to systemic diseases, and it is necessary to find ways to do radical treatment in combination with some other means to improve the quality of life of patients after surgery.
This is also Zhou Qiao's consistent thinking before, which is to transform large tumors into small tumors, transform systemic diseases into local problems, and then cure them through surgery to prolong the survival of patients.
Of course, the best thing for this disease is to do gastroscopy regularly for early detection and early treatment.
Not only were the patients and families shocked, but Grace was also impressed.
Such a serious advanced stage of stomach cancer was easily solved under the leadership of Zhou Qiao.
In Zhou Qiao's mind, the system kept prompting: "Grace's favorability is 100!" "Grace has 100 opinion!" "Grace has 100 opinion!"
Opinion of 100 is the upper limit of this value, not the upper limit of Grace.
At this moment, Grace is ready to dedicate herself.
However, what made her complain was that after so long, Zhou Qiao didn't say anything about it.
It's too much!
You straightened me, but you didn't want it, what do you mean?
One afternoon, Grace finally mustered up the courage to confess to Zhou Qiao.
Zhou Qiao was ashamed and told her: "Actually, I have a lot of women, who are not good matches. β
"I know." Grace shrugged and said to herself, I don't care.
So many beauties are grabbing, why don't I join? I also want to experience your excellence.
She's been knocking on the side of the others, why are you so well-maintained and so young?
Then, through the words accidentally revealed by those girls, Grace was shocked to discover that Zhou Qiao might be a treasure.
Even if it's to achieve reverse growth like several other beauties, Grace has to give it a try.
Besides, she is really obsessed with Zhou Qiao now.
