Chapter 2198: then translation of chapter title

In the early morning, 5:23 AM.

Northern Province Sheng Cheng Medical University Affiliated Hospital Intervention Department Demonstration Classroom.

Liu Zewei and Gao Shaojie were watching the surgery live broadcast.

Last night, Xinglin Yuan's announcements spread everywhere; after seeing them, basically no doctor would be uninterested.

A few days ago, Zheng Lao Ban just completed an intracardiac intervention surgery, treating a fetus with congenital aortic stenosis.

Because of this, Liu Zewei felt sad for several days. If he had delayed a bit, he would have been the one to perform this surgery.

While the dust hadn't settled on the intracardiac intervention surgery, Zheng Lao Ban was going to team up with the UK King's Hospital to perform an emergency liver transplant.

The method researched by Oxford University for preserving organs at room temperature is said to be ahead of world standards by 10-15 years.

Thus we need to add Oxford University.

Although the live broadcast was in the early morning, after seeing the condition summary of the patient who needed a liver transplant, no one complained about it.

Acute liver failure, despite being under the control of the nation's top critical care medical team, the condition continues to progress irreversibly; certainly, once a liver source is available, surgery must be performed immediately.

912 Publicity Department worked overnight to draft manuscripts; under the description of several writers, several articles were produced as quickly as possible and posted on the Xinglin Garden Website.

The patient's entire medical history itself is heartbreaking; the writers focused on depicting a single mother's bitter struggles raising her child.

Before graduating from university, the child suddenly fell ill; for the mother, the overwhelming grief of the sky collapsing leapt onto the page.

Men would fall silent after seeing it; women would tear up after finishing.

Lin Ge's work was still solid; despite the tight schedule, the article and medical records were uploaded together to Xinglin Yuan, and finally it mentioned that 912 joined hands with Xinglin Yuan to carry out surgery publicity and teaching work, making their own efforts to relieve more patients' suffering.

Especially in the new era, new technology, new environment, 912 does not remain closed off, but cooperates hand-in-hand with top international hospitals.

The later content is not much, but it's the finishing touch.

After the sorrowful atmosphere, a turn of events brought hope.

In a short time, producing something like this shows that Lin Ge's ability and the 912 publicity and education department's ability are still super strong.

However, for Liu Zewei and Gao Shaojie, they didn't even glance at this publicity content. Working at the hospital, seeing similar situations each year is already more than enough.

If one is too sensitive, one will go crazy.

Gao Shaojie expressed surprise that the 912 hospital administration had gotten involved, wondering how Zheng Lao Ban's surgery live broadcast ended up together with the hospital administration.

After Liu Zewei's explanation, Gao Shaojie finally understood the matter. During this time, I didn't go, truly missing out on many things.

The two agreed to meet at 4 a. m. and rushed to the department to watch the surgery live broadcast together. Although Liu Zewei is no longer in the medical team, and Gao Shaojie hasn't yet gone to Di Du, Zheng Lao Ban's medical team has an inexhaustible appeal, drawing the two in.

Gao Shaojie silently looked at the medical record, feeling as if a kitten's claws were constantly scratching his heart.

I must go, I must go, I definitely must go!

Helping Liu Zewei become director, Gao Shaojie cut off all his retreat routes. Now looking back, this path seems correct.

In the past two days, besides studying the previous intracardiac intervention surgery, Gao Shaojie finally saw Liu Zewei perform a TIPS surgery and also saw his progress.

Liu Zewei's TIPS surgery standard, compared to before, is worlds apart.

If we say Liu Zewei's level before was only top in the province, near first-rate domestically, top of second-rate, then now he has successfully advanced to become a world-class interventional surgery doctor.

Gao Shaojie can feel that Liu Zewei's level is higher than his by an entire order of magnitude.

Is it a second wind? Probably. Every time Gao Shaojie thinks of this, his heart burns hot.

"Old Gao, have you seen Zheng Lao Ban perform surgery?" Liu Zewei got up a bit early, and since the surgery hadn't started yet, feeling a little drowsy, he chatted with Gao Shaojie.

"I have, the earliest was in Hai Cheng, watching them press on the chest under direct vision in the emergency department to rescue a patient with cardiac tamponade." Gao Shaojie said, "Now Zheng Lao Ban even does liver transplants, truly unexpected."

"Academic exchange, the UK King's Hospital team is coming; they'll probably be squeezed to the side." Liu Zewei, who deeply understands Zheng Lao Ban's medical team's overbearing style, said with a smile.

Regarding this, Liu Zewei has a deeper understanding than Lin Ge.

Gao Shaojie laughed; a young doctor who came out of Hai Cheng, in less than a year has already reached this point?

It's really hard to believe.

But these are facts; not talking about surgery, their interventional surgery is top-notch. My own surgical skill being good is just one aspect; in terms of leading by example, it's extremely outstanding, Liu Zewei's technical improvement is truly solid.

The Nobel Prize project, just hearing about it makes one's blood boil. The first Asian example of intracardiac intervention surgery a few days ago was also like that.

A single doctor being able to reach this level is truly awe-inspiring.

"Old Liu, after you leave, who will Professor Rudolf partner with?" Gao Shaojie looked at the screen, waiting for the surgery, and asked casually.

"A female Harvard PhD graduate, not old, looking energetic." Liu Zewei said, "She came to me on her own initiative; later I felt Director Kong should have spoken."

"Oh?" Gao Shaojie is quite interested in this future colleague.

"I guess she might be someone's daughter, forcibly stuffed into Zheng Lao Ban's medical team to get a share of the Nobel Prize project's glory." Liu Zewei, well-read and experienced, although he didn't ask in detail, just glanced twice and made his own guess.

Although not accurate, it's not far off.

Gao Shaojie asked with a bit of worry: "How many such people are there?"

Under the sun there's nothing new; Zheng Lao Ban's medical team is like a rising sun. Anyone with clear vision can see that the future prospects are vast; following along to bask in the light brings great help to one's future path.

It's strange that such a medical team could even have fewer people stuffed into it. Even if Zheng Lao Ban is strict, offending too many people will make the future road difficult.

"When I left, there weren't many yet; Zhou Chun Yong from Di Du's hepatobiliary department stuffed in some trainee doctors, also helping Zheng Lao Ban solve the community hospital staffing issue." Liu Zewei said, "Besides the girl named Lin Yuan, I didn't see anyone else. If you go, don't assume she's young and be careless."

Gao Shaojie nodded; Old Liu's words are heartfelt.

Although it's not a key point, Zheng Lao Ban's medical team is no longer Hai Cheng's makeshift troupe. Even an insignificant-looking young doctor inside has an extremely deep background.

If one's mindset doesn't change, offending someone might inadvertently invoke some great deity later.

Although this possibility is small, and even if something happens Zheng Lao Ban will still protect himself thoroughly, there's no need not to.

"Going, I will do the surgery properly." Gao Shaojie said.

"Maybe there won't be that many surgeries." Liu Zewei rubbed his head, shiny shiny. After returning to Sheng Cheng for a period, Old Liu's head became a bit shinier.

"Huh?" Gao Shaojie wondered.

"With so many trainee personnel, they always have to take turns going on stage for Zheng Lao Ban to give them some pointers on surgery."

So many trainees always have to line up to go on stage and be given a little guidance on the Shou Bing by Zheng Lao Ban.

Gao Shaojie sighed inwardly; still, Old Liu's Opportunity back then was better. No matter how much he regrets, he can't go back to that time.

Even if we go back to the beginning, I still couldn't get to the capital. My child's college entrance exam is a bigger deal than heaven. As parents, we often have no choice.

"This liver transplant patient looks in poor condition; during the operation we must absolutely avoid any mishap," Liu Zewei muttered to himself.

"I glanced at the medical record; the patient's condition is really poor."

The Medical University Affiliated Hospital in Sheng Cheng has performed a few liver transplants, merely filling a provincial gap. To truly make liver transplantation a routine surgery, Northern Province still can't achieve that.

"Old Gao, have you heard that the UK King's Hospital and Oxford University have teamed up, with a new technology that can store organs at room temperature?" Liu Zewei asked.

"I don't know," Gao Shaojie shook his head. "That's top‑world technology; even Americans haven't learned or developed it."

Organ transplantation, besides the latest technology, requires low‑temperature preservation.

Low temperature prevents cell swelling and avoids biochemical damage; lowering from 37°C to 0°C reduces the cellular metabolic rate to one‑twelfth of the original.

Moreover, under low‑temperature conditions, although cellular metabolism and energy reserve consumption slow, the primary energy source for cell metabolism, ATP and ADP, continues to be gradually consumed; thus the composition of the preservation fluid is another key factor in preserving organ function.

In medicine, a specially formulated organ perfusate is used, typically at 0‑4 °C, to rapidly flush the organ and cleanse the blood as much as possible.

Just the perfusate alone has dozens of major research groups worldwide studying its formulation; to date, it has undergone many generations of updates.

The perfusion pressure is maintained at 60‑100 cm H₂O, liver perfusion volume is two to three liters, kidney and pancreas 200‑500 mL, stored in containers of the perfusate kept at 2‑4 °C until transplantation turns it into cooled blood.

To date, the longest preservation time for a fresh liver is three days.

Research on this has been ongoing, but progress is slow; only Oxford University in 2018 developed a method for performing warm liver transplantation.

This is an epoch‑making achievement.

But when domestic researchers will be able to develop similar technology is uncertain.

Some are also researching low‑temperature preservation that could store organs for decades, but it seems no breakthrough yet; low‑temperature preserved organ transplantation brings many problems that remain unsolved.

Liu Zewei and Gao Shaojie chatted briefly, sighing over how impressive Boss Zheng is, and the screen changed.

The surgery live broadcast began.
