Chapter 424: with translation of chapter title

~8 min read 1,462 words

But after Wang Qiang had arranged everything in Sheng Cheng, Eryuan Hospital sent news that the TIPS Surgery had already been completed!

Damn it!

Wang Qiang felt very disappointed; although they weren't at home, they still inquired about some details of the TIPS Surgery.

It wasn't Cheng Lixue who arranged for someone to do it, but Director Zhang went to City First Hospital and asked someone to perform the Shou Bing.

As long as it's not Cheng Lixue, everything can still be discussed. Moreover, City First Hospital, do they have an Intervention Department?

It's not that Wang Qiang looks down on City First Hospital; compared to Eryuan, City First Hospital suffers more severe talent loss, and its management is extremely rigid.

With low income, how can they retain talented doctors? Relying solely on a phrase of dedication spirit? Impossible!

Dedication, everyone is dedicating. Just dedication, no pay, not even enough money to afford installment payments for buying a house and settling down in Hai Cheng; how can we expect people to willingly dedicate?

City First Hospital, impossible!

The doctors in their Intervention Department who could perform Shou Bing had already gone south. Wang Qiang had kept in touch with them, and after they left, the excellent equipment at City First Hospital has remained idle.

They haven't performed Shou Bing for many years, yet they can just start doing TIPS Surgery? This is nonsense, right?

It is said that a foreign professor came to perform Shou Bing, so Wang Qiang finally thought it must be a coincidence: the foreign professor went to City First Hospital for an exchange and, by the way, Director Zhang invited him over to perform several TIPS Surgeries.

This is not a long-term plan; Sheng Cheng is so close to Hai Cheng that the high-speed rail gets there in just one hour.

As long as we can contact a professor at Sheng Cheng Medical University Affiliated Hospital and have them arrive anytime, wouldn't we then be able to surpass Cheng Lixue?

So he shortened the study exchange time, and now he is already on the high-speed rail with the Deputy Chief of the Intervention Department and Team-leading Professor Gao Shaojie Teacher from Medical University Affiliated Hospital, returning to Eryuan.

The doctors under him had already prepared for the TIPS Surgery, painstakingly scraping out a decompensated cirrhosis patient from the director's tight budget, preparing to perform the TIPS Surgery.

The Deputy Chief is Gao Shaojie, a young faction member of Medical University Affiliated Hospital, a doctoral student in interventional therapy specialty at the Columbia University Medical Center in the United States (Note 1).

After returning to China, he originally wanted to go to Di Du, but the competition there was extremely fierce; without background or education, he was no different from others and simply couldn't get into any hospital in Di Du.

So Gao Shaojie simply went to Sheng Cheng Medical University Affiliated Hospital; over the years, development has been not bad, after all, the Shou Bing are done well, especially the TIPS Surgery.

"Little Wang, don't Tension." The Deputy Chief of Medical University Affiliated Hospital, Gao Shaojie Teacher, seeing Wang Qiang uneasy, comforted him.

"Teacher Gao, I've just taken charge of the team here, the pressure is indeed great." Wang Qiang forced a faint smile, "Fortunately with your support, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

"It's fine, the TIPS Surgery is already quite mature." Gao Shaojie smiled while comforting.

Indeed, in Sheng Cheng, Wang Qiang personally witnessed Gao Shaojie perform over ten TIPS Surgeries. The Shou Bing success rate reached over 80%; for successful Shou Bing, the number of punctures remained around ten.

This level can be said to be quite high.

It is said that Teacher Gao also once visited the Mayo Clinic for observation; his level is worse than the Mayo Clinic's, but not by much.

Looking at Gao Shaojie's warm smile, Wang Qiang felt somewhat reassured.

I don't know when I will be able to learn how to perform the TIPS Surgery.

If that day ever comes, aside from Di Du and Modu, aren't hospitals nationwide free to choose?

The high-speed rail arrived in Hai Cheng; Wang Qiang's junior doctor drove over to pick up Wang Qiang and Gao Shaojie.

After getting in the car, Wang Qiang eagerly inquired about the procedure of the TIPS Surgery performed by the people from City First Hospital a few days ago.

"Director Wang, the one who came from City First Hospital is the Inpatient Chief of the Emergency Department; their Intervention Department still has hardly any staff." The junior doctor said.

Just the Inpatient Chief of the Emergency Department?

Wang Qiang felt relieved; the Emergency Department at most does only Interventional embolization hemostasis. The TIPS Surgery is still far away.

"But among those who came together, there is also a professor from Heidelberg University."

"Huh?" Gao Shaojie's ears perked up.

The Heidelberg University Medical Center's standing in the medical field is roughly comparable to that of Columbia University Medical Center, but interventional direction is Heidelberg University's specialty.

"What is the professor's name?" Gao Shaojie leaned forward to ask.

"Uh..." The young doctor couldn't remember Professor Rudolf Wagner's name, but since the teachers in Sheng Cheng were asking, one couldn't possibly be completely ignorant.

"The professor has blond hair, is very tall. Right, he speaks fluent Dong Bei dialect; it seems he has lived here for a long time." The young doctor hastily related everything he remembered.

Dong Bei dialect? Gao Shaojie truly didn't know which internationally renowned professor would speak Dong Bei dialect.

"Tomorrow, Director Zhang has arranged 8 Interventional surgeries."

"8?" Gao Shaojie's pupils constricted, his brows furrowed, "Can they be completed?"

TIPS Surgery, even for professors in Di Du or Modu, at most only schedule 2 per day.

Any more, and it cannot be completed.

How could they schedule so many?! Gao Shaojie's thoughts were quick; his first thought was to perform 8 TIPS Surgeries in a day.

This is not impossible, but that is the surgical volume of several professors in a day at a large medical center.

"Are there others performing?" Gao Shaojie grasped this point and asked.

"No, it's just Chief Zheng from City First Hospital coming to perform the Shou Bing."

"This is no joke!" Gao Shaojie was displeased.

Interventional surgery consumes guidewire, so many doctors, to reduce guidewire usage, perform the surgery rather roughly.

For example, a certain liver and gallbladder hospital in Modu.

The slow development of the Interventional Medicine Discipline domestically is directly related to the hastiness of Modu's liver and gallbladder hospital.

But there are many patients and few doctors; this is also an objective fact.

Gao Shaojie is meticulous; he would rather do fewer Shou Bing, earn less money, than deceive patients.

Thus, upon hearing that the Inpatient Chief of the Emergency Department at City First Hospital was to perform 8 TIPS Surgeries in a day, he immediately became furious!

"..." The young doctor was driving, startled by Gao Shaojie's anger, and immediately explained: "Teacher Gao, they also performed 8 TIPS Surgeries a few days ago."

"Huh?!"

"The Shou Bing... seem to have gone quite well, with no postoperative hepatic encephalopathy; they said they would first perform TIPS Surgery tomorrow, and then remove the second retrievable stent left in place from the previous Shou Bing's patient."

"..." Gao Shaojie was speechless.

Is this 16 Shou Bing in a day? TIPS Surgery is difficult, but after completing TIPS Surgery and placing two stents, it is because after the first covered stent opens the Vein, the venous blood that bypasses hepatic metabolism increases, leading the patient to develop severe hepatic encephalopathy, forcing the placement of a second stent.

And the second stent is not taken out.

Removing it gives a better effect, and everyone knows that. But removing the stent…… liver bleeding, that risk is too great!

Could it be a novel procedure done by the professor? Gao Shaojie pondered, not ruling out this possibility.

Perhaps internationally, TIPS Surgery already has a new treatment method, and I don't know?

Thinking, Gao Shaojie took out his phone, glanced at the time, hesitated a few seconds, then found a number and dialed.

……

……

Note 1: Professor Pan Jie of Xiehe Intervention is a doctoral student at Columbia University; the background was just taken as needed, but this character is absolutely not Teacher Pan. Originally, the male lead of this book, Yu Cheng, was modeled after Teacher Pan Jie, but unfortunately no contract was signed.

Moreover, Teacher Pan Jie, the standard idol type, really! Interested readers can search online for Teacher Pan Jie's photo; it's a typical protagonist template.

Teacher Pan has high medical ethics, high skill, and high looks.

This is not a fictional fabrication; such a person really exists.
