Even so, it is not enough for a doctor to give empty words to a patient, especially when faced with a big boss like Mr. Lu who has rich medical knowledge.
"Teacher, don't worry too much." Xie Wanying told Teacher Lu again that in addition to telling the cruel facts, being a doctor also needs to bring new hope to patients so as not to make them despair. "Medical technology is changing every moment. So.
Regarding the two difficulties I mentioned before, regarding the first point, our hospital already has this three-dimensional tee esophageal echocardiography examination."
tee.
A group of people suddenly heard her mention this relatively unknown technology and were a little confused.
Tee is transesophageal echocardiography. It originated in the 1980s. It was two-dimensional at first. It developed into three-dimensional in the early 1990s. Now some are studying four-dimensional. This technology has been very limited in clinical application from the beginning.
Most doctors are not optimistic about the prospects of this technology itself. The reason is that its operation is like inserting a gastric tube and requires anesthesia for the patient. This is a troublesome thing for both patients and doctors, so it has never been widely used in clinical practice.
The area is expanded.
"I think I heard someone say that few people do this test?" Teacher Lu asked her, "Is it the same as an echocardiogram?"
The teacher is a pharmacy expert, so he may be unfamiliar with clinical examination items. He is not a specialist in this field and has never thought about it. He really can only think of it as an echocardiogram at the first time.
"The teacher is talking about tte." Xie Wanying explained, "tte is widely used in clinical practice. Basically, patients with suspected organic heart disease will undergo this examination for further investigation. tte is a transchest wall echocardiogram, with a transducer
Use the chest wall to explore the inside of the heart. The tee goes into the esophagus and uses a probe to explore the heart. Just comparing the distance between the two and the heart, the tee must have the probe closer to the heart. So the tee has several advantages. If you want
When exploring cardiac structures that are far away from the chest wall, such as the atria and great vessels, it is obvious that tee has advantages over tte, as it will illuminate them more clearly."
Teacher Lu seemed to be fascinated by her words. He kept listening, his eyes focused on her face and almost motionless.
This child seemed to have magic coming from her mouth when she talked about knowledge.
When Teacher Lu thought about it, it might be that her speech was concise and concise, and her depth and confidence in medical understanding were enough to convince people.
If a big boss spoke like this, no one would think anything. The problem is that this child is just a medical student, so she can only be deeply surprised.
The people around were also astonished when they heard Xie Wanying's words. There were many people there.
"Its probe can rotate and can detect important structures such as the atrial appendage, pulmonary veins, and interatrial septum from angles. There is no lung tissue anatomically between the esophagus and the heart, so it is not afraid of affecting the lungs. Higher frequency can be used
The probe is used for detection. These advantages cannot be achieved by other examination items such as TT." Xie Wanying concluded with a summary, "The probe is in the esophagus, which means that intraoperative continuous monitoring can be carried out during cardiovascular surgery. This is very important for
Cardiovascular doctors and anesthesiologists are both of great significance.
Is that so? People in other departments look at people who are out-of-mind?
Some even looked at Zhang Tinghai who was under anesthesia.
Zhang Tinghai was completely confused. They were anesthetists, but they had never thought of using cardiovascular tools for intraoperative testing. Is this a new research direction?
Never heard her mention it? Zhang Tinghai glanced at Xie Wanying's face and began to suspect that she also had some attainments in anesthesiology.
