Chapter 2301: 2223 Using Intervention to Do (Alliance Leader Muwu VIP Bonus Chapter 3)

~7 min read 1,222 words

Early the next morning, Zheng Ren was woken by Su Yun's voice outside the door.

Fainted again? Zheng Ren hesitated, sat up, and began to recall the images seen with the True Eye.

One after another, Zheng Ren seemed to have an idea.

With a bang, the door was pushed open.

Su Yun saw Zheng Ren sitting on the bed with a solemn expression, first stunned, then sneered: "You're meditating this early morning? Preparing to ascend to immortality?"

"It's fine, I'll take you and Heizi flying together." Zheng Ren was a bit annoyed; just as he recalled the Discovery 750W 3.0T cardiac MR, Su Yun interrupted his thoughts.

Su Yun was stunned for a moment; when did the boss become so sharp-tongued?

He looked at Zheng Ren puzzled; his own boss seemed somehow different.

"I still need a few minutes; wait a moment and please close the door for me," Zheng Ren said.

Su Yun reached back and closed the door, but he remained inside the room.

Zheng Ren was also helpless, ignoring that guy, and strove to search and remember relevant information in the memory fragments.

Just like meditating, Zheng Ren closed his eyes and began to recall various information.

Professor Lon's invented interventional surgery, the descending ventricular fold reduction procedure, treats ventricular wall aneurysm.

The analysis software for nuclear magnetic resonance, developed by the imaging team of Xiamen Zhouxin Medical Imaging Diagnosis Center in cooperation with Europe's PIE Company, produced software suitable for the Chinese.

The ventricular fold reduction procedure is performed while the heart is still beating, without the need for cardiopulmonary bypass support.

Under the assistance of ultrasound and magnetic resonance, and with precise DSA positioning, first a cardiothoracic surgeon makes a small opening in the patient's left intercostal space to expose the apical ventricular wall aneurysm; then an interventional cardiologist inserts various catheters via the internal jugular vein route to "thread the needle" between the right heart and left ventricle.

Our medical team can fully handle the entire interventional surgery process.

Su Yun opens the chest, observes the part of the heart to be folded, and himself inserts a catheter via the internal jugular vein to fold the heart.

The biggest difficulty is that this type of surgery requires specialized equipment, completed with DSA under the assistance of a 3.0 nuclear magnetic resonance.

Room 912 has similar equipment, capable of completing imaging with ultrasound and DSA. If needed, I must perform intraoperative nuclear magnetic resonance reconstruction.

This is the most difficult part of the preoperative preparation for the entire surgery.

If we exclude these hardware and software difficulties, treating the hypertrophied left ventricle as a ventricular wall aneurysm makes the surgical process much simpler than literally cutting out a piece of myocardium.

The key is that the heart does not need to stop during surgery, and the patient can get out of bed the next day to do auxiliary rehabilitation exercises.

【Paper airplane】, this really is the surgical process. However, ventricular wall aneurysm and left ventricular dilatation hypertrophy are two different diseases, so the surgical technique still needs improvement.

Zheng Ren carefully considered the procedure; moreover, it is entirely feasible to use it for late-stage dilated cardiomyopathy.

There are still a few technical challenges to overcome; Zheng Ren smiled slightly, as long as he finds the idea, it can be done.

The rest are technical issues, and the True Eye has also seen various complications, so I can completely avoid the danger zones.

Seems not bad.

Zheng Ren opened his eyes and saw Su Yun looking at him with a stern expression.

"What are you looking at?"

"Looking at you having a hysterical fit."

"I'm thinking about the surgery," Zheng Ren said helplessly.

"Surgery? Batista procedure? What's there to think about? I don't recommend using a patch. I've only seen this surgery once, done with a patch, and postoperatively the patient's heart had severe adhesions, greatly affecting cardiac function; ejection fraction was insufficient, and the effect was mediocre."

"Not a patch; I want to do it with interventional surgery," Zheng Ren said calmly.

……

Su Yun froze, as if struck by lightning, the black hair on his forehead drifting weakly.

Using interventional surgery to treat late-stage dilated cardiomyopathy—is the boss just spouting nonsense?

"What did that man say last night?" Zheng Ren asked.

"He'll go to the hospital later to discuss the surgery," Su Yun said. "I think he wants to see whether we're doctors or con artists."

"Okay, then I'll hurry to think more about how to do the surgery. You and he make an appointment for 11:30 a. m.; coming early is pointless, we'll be on the operating table."

"Appointment set; you can think during the surgery," Su Yun said.

Zheng Ren nodded, got up, and washed up.

With Su Yun watching, even sitting on the bed feels especially awkward.

"Boss, how is interventional surgery performed?" Su Yun asked in surprise.

"Left ventricular fold reduction surgery, the procedure for treating ventricular wall aneurysm—do you know it?"

Su Yun remained silent for a few seconds, then gave a slight nod.

He merely nodded without speaking; Zheng Ren estimated that Su Yun knew of the procedure's existence but had not learned about it.

No wonder—fewer than 100 cases have been performed worldwide, and they all occurred after he left the capital; expecting detailed knowledge is unrealistic.

Moreover, I'm not treating ventricular wall aneurysm but using the surgery for late-stage dilated cardiomyopathy; Su Yun probably can't understand it either.

"No rush; I'll ponder it first. There are still details to refine—whether it can be done isn't certain, but I'll strive for it," Zheng Ren said with a smile.

Getting up, washing up, eating—Zheng Ren and Su Yun spoke unusually little. Xie Yiren and Chang Yue noticed something odd, but neither said anything; they ate quietly and went to work.

Throughout the morning, Zheng Ren focused on pondering the surgery. Because Zhao Wenhua joined in, Zheng Ren proposed to the hospital a request to renovate the operating room.

He wanted a middle space to simultaneously watch Zhao Wenhua and Fugui'er's surgeries.

Although Professor Rudolf Wagner's level is such that we needn't watch, Zheng Ren still remained cautious and not careless.

Renovating the control room, the workload is neither big nor small. Although the hospital is efficient, putting it into use will still take at least another week.

Zheng Ren watched Zhao Wenhua, while Su Yun sat in Operating Room 1 watching Fugui'er perform surgery.

The TIPS surgery proceeded without incident; after Zheng Ren roughly had an idea, he took advantage of several opportunities to enter the system operating room and performed over a hundred surgeries.

The surgery could succeed, but the completion rate was somewhat low. This is still top-tier interventional surgery standard; its difficulty can be imagined.

At noon, after all surgeries ended, Zhao Wenhua obediently went to send off patients, while Zheng Ren took off his lead apron to look for Su Yun.

"Boss, have you figured out the surgery? I feel it's a bit unreliable," Su Yun said.

One could tell that this morning Su Yun had been constantly thinking and searching for the way of Shou Bing.

"'Almost there.' Zheng Ren said confidently."

"Although the completion level is a bit low, after all it's been completed, right?"

"'First explain it to me.' Su Yun said eagerly."
