Chapter 2249: with translation of chapter title
But if we place a stent, isn't there always pressure? The operator, after a simple thanks, voiced the doubt in his heart.
The problem with the internal feedback system; generally after a carotid stent goes in, the medulla's blood supply is sufficient, blood pressure and heart rate will change. So at this point we should choose to seize the time to operate, rather than stop the operation. Zheng Ren smiled and said: "Even if after cardiopulmonary resuscitation the patient recovers sinus rhythm, we must continue the operation."
Are you worried about secondary cerebral infarction? Mu Tao asked.
Um, modern medicine has confirmed that 1/3 of strokes are caused by detached plaques from carotid artery stenosis. After the balloon is inflated, the plaque is stressed; if we don't continue, the likelihood of later problems is too great.
Boss, you've finished all this; shouldn't we wrap up? Su Yun asked.
Wait a moment. Zheng Ren said, "After the medulla's blood supply recovers, there may still be 1-2 fluctuations. The probability is low, but…"
That probability is too low; Boss, are you being too nervous? Su Yun said contemptuously.
Just take a look, it won't delay anything. Zheng Ren stared at the ECG, absentmindedly chatting with Su Yun while watching the fluctuations.
Then you stay busy; I'll go rest a bit. Su Yun said, "Why do I have to do chest compressions every time?"
Because you're the rising star of Di Du's Cardiothoracic Surgery, I don't trust anyone else to do it. Zheng Ren kept his eyes on the ECG, fully focused, casually brushing off Su Yun.
Su Yun waved her hand and turned to leave.
Lao He, however, didn't leave; he calmly observed the various values on the ECG monitor and ventilator, judging possible patient problems from each tiny change.
Although Zheng Lao Ban was present, Lao He did not relax his vigilance.
After about ten minutes, the patient's vital signs stabilized; everything was normal.
The coronary artery surgery, nothing wrong, right? Zheng Ren asked.
Um... The cardiology doctor was somewhat hesitant, not daring to directly say there was no problem.
It's fine; I'm just next door in the operating room. Take your time, and call me if anything comes up. Zheng Ren said.
Having said that, he turned and stepped down from the platform.
Zheng Lao Ban, the blood pressure seems a bit low. Mu Tao said.
Oh, that's normal. Carotid artery stenosis is also a factor causing hypertension. After opening the carotid artery, blood pressure will likely return to normal levels, but it will gradually rise within 12-24 hours.
Zheng Ren said this while leaving the operating room.
Who is that? After Zheng Ren left, the cardiology operator realized that Professor Mu and the doctor who had just performed the carotid artery procedure were speaking very politely.
It wasn't just politeness; he was being extra cautious, as if speaking to Wu Lao, keeping his posture very low.
I'll go ask. The circulating nurse, feeling reassured, seeing nothing wrong here, ran out.
Doctor Sun looked at the monitor and ventilator, still feeling uneasy; just now the situation was such that the patient said they couldn't and they couldn't. Although she also knew about carotid artery pressure sensing, when faced with a sudden major change, trying to stay calm and objective was extremely difficult.
After 30 seconds of external chest compressions with no effect, she had already hesitated. At that moment she thought, if we had to do it again, she definitely wouldn't perform this surgery.
At this point, having an escape mentality is also human nature.
This is a matter of clinical experience, but that doctor, though young, somehow spoke like an old professor, his words full of an aura of inevitable victory.
I heard Professor Mu invited experts from Di Du to perform surgery today; could it be this young person? Professors from Di Du are really young.
Thinking about it, Doctor Sun recalled some rumors; could it be that person?
Better to just do the surgery; after the operation I must go thank the Di Du experts, Doctor Sun thought.
A few minutes later, the circulating nurse came running back, mysteriously saying: "Director Sun, do you know who that is?"
Doctor Sun's heart stirred; while preparing for the radial artery puncture, she asked: "Is that the legendary Zheng Lao Ban who cured the earth master's heavenly calamity?"
Um, that's him. The circulating nurse's cheeks, exposed outside the mask, flushed red: "He's so young! I never expected him to be this young."
Yeah, looking young, I always thought he was a fifty- or sixty-year-old old professor. Even though everyone calls him Little Zheng Lao Ban... really unexpected.
Director Sun, just now you scared me; I thought the patient wouldn't come back. The circulating nurse patted her chest, repeatedly saying: "Fortunately we encountered Little Zheng Lao Ban."
What surgery is he here to do?
They say he's here to do an intrauterine fetal interventional surgery.
In our neighboring room? Doctor Sun said, somewhat surprised.
It was done in the Big External Operating Room, and it's already finished. The circulating nurse said: "Over here we have six TIPS surgeries to perform."
... Doctor Sun was stunned for a moment.
One Flying Knife, to do this many surgeries? Indeed there are professors willing to fly once and do several more surgeries, but one intrauterine... uh, is it intrauterine? It is intrauterine!
When she first muttered about this surgical technique, Doctor Sun hadn't reacted yet. But now recalling, Little Zheng Lao Ban is performing an intrauterine fetal surgery!
This...
She sighed, feeling a bit envious inside.
How many TIPS surgeries have been completed? Doctor Sun inquired.
One has been done; the second has just started.
Then let's start as well. Doctor Sun said, "After finishing, I'll go thank Little Zheng Lao Ban."
The surgery continued; the patient's coronary artery blockage was quite severe, and Doctor Sun proceeded very carefully. Three lesions, three stents went in, taking two and a half hours.
After she finished, took off her sterile gown, and wanted to go next door to the operating room to express her thanks, she saw that the neighboring operating room was empty.
The nurses had already cleaned the operating room and were preparing to get off work.
The surgery... is it finished? Doctor Sun asked in surprise.
That was a TIPS surgery; although she knew the Apricot Grove Garden Surgery Live Broadcast Room often streams this type of procedure, she had never watched it.
Besides, she isn't an organ-intervention doctor; watching these surgeries is meaningless to her.
But Little Zheng Lao Ban is Little Zheng Lao Ban; his surgeries are truly fast!
Indeed, he lives up to being the legendary figure who cured the earth master's heavenly calamity.
They're done; after finishing their surgery, Zheng Lao Ban and Professor Mu went to the operating area to glance at your patient, saw nothing wrong, and then left. The circulating nurse on this side began disinfecting, turned and shut the airtight lead door.
……
……
At the same time, Zheng Ren and Su Yun were in the Emergency Department of Pengcheng People's Hospital, staring at a girl with blue eyes and pointed ears who was dazed.
"Su Yun, are you sure this is someone you know?" Zheng Ren's lips didn't move, he asked in a low voice.
Muttering in front of the patient is definitely not good, but Zheng Ren really couldn't help himself.
Su Yun also felt a bit lost, staring blankly at the girl who looked like an elf maiden from games, novels, and movies.
