At Jishuitan Hospital, all imaginable examinations were done.
In the end, it was not found out what was wrong with Luo Yanning.
Liu Zhenming even convened an emergency group of experts for consultation.
Several experts were all veteran experts who had been working on the front line for decades, but after seeing Luo Yanning's situation, they all shook their heads.
"I have been working in the industry for so many years, but I have never seen such a strange illness. All vital signs are normal, but he is unconscious. It is really strange."
"Yes! I wonder if the patient encountered some major setbacks and was unwilling to wake up in order to escape reality?"
"It's very possible. As the saying goes, you can't wake someone who is pretending to sleep."
Several experts found nothing wrong with him through normal examinations and began to speculate on psychological problems.
"What you said shouldn't be the case."
Liu Zhenming waved his hand and interrupted everyone's conversation, saying: "I heard from Dr. Jiang that the patient was the boss of a prosperous scenic spot at a young age. He was definitely young and promising. I got the information from his friends.
, he is also in the period of rising career, and when he is most proud of his life, escaping from reality should not be an issue."
"That's it..."
"This disease is really extremely rare!"
"No physical problems can be found, and there are no psychological problems either. So what exactly is the problem?"
After everyone listened to the information disclosed by Liu Zhenming, everyone had no idea at all.
Someone suggested: "How about asking them to go to Union Medical College Hospital?"
Although saying this may inflate other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige, there is nothing you can do about it.
If the best time for treatment is missed, no one will be able to bear this responsibility.
"It really doesn't work, so this is the only way..."
Liu Zhenming spoke softly. Although he was unwilling to admit that his department was worse than his counterparts at Union Hospital, it was an indisputable fact.
As the number one hospital in the country in terms of overall strength, Union Hospital still has its own unique features.
A gray-haired old doctor in the temporary expert team stroked his glasses on the bridge of his nose and suddenly said:
"Although the patient's condition today is rare, it is not uncommon.
It seems to have been three years ago, right? I saw a similar case in Country Y on "The Lancet."
The old doctor stopped when he reached the key point, frowning slightly, as if he was trying to remember something.
"Oh? Mr. Chen has seen similar cases?"
"What happened to the case in Country Y? Was it cured? Maybe it has some reference value for our patient."
"Mr. Chen, please stop being so secretive and just tell me what you know."
When several experts heard that there were suspected cases for reference, they immediately became interested.
When a doctor encounters a difficult disease, he is like a student who encounters a difficult problem. If he cannot get the answer, he will think about it while eating and sleeping.
The doctor, who everyone called Mr. Chen, thought for a moment and said, "I remember reporting that the illness in the above case seemed to be incurable.
The hospital in country Y is similar to the examination we did today, and they also performed various examinations.
From routine blood tests to brain CT and MRI, everything imaginable was done, but nothing was found.
If the patient is physically stimulated, the patient will respond, and the brain area will respond accordingly, but he will not be able to wake up.
Finally, the patient woke up naturally after being in a coma for a full 105 hours.
After the patient regained consciousness, the doctors gave him a comprehensive physical examination. All the patient's physical indicators were the same as those of normal people..."
Mr. Chen explained in detail a case of illness he had seen on "The Lancet".
"The Lancet", also known as The Lancet in the domestic medical field, is the oldest and one of the most authoritative academic journals in the world's medical community.
This journal is also one of the SCI journals with the highest impact factor, and it has a profound impact on the global medical community.
Since its inception on October 25, 1823, the journal has been a leading mouthpiece for the global medical community, providing its readers with worldwide medical developments across regions and disciplines.
Thomas Weekley, the founder of the journal, named the journal after the surgical knife "The Lancet."
Lancet also means "spire dome window" in English, which means that the journal aspires to become "a bright window that illuminates the medical world."
The journal has remained independent since its inception and has never joined any medical or scientific organization.
More than 180 years after the journal was founded, The Lancet's voice throughout the medical community remains independent and authoritative.
The mission of The Lancet journal is to:
Exploring the publication of high-quality clinical trials that can lead to changes in medical practice;
Committed to the mission of World Health to ensure broad coverage of research analysis from all regions of the world.
A strong Reviews and Communications Department ensures rigorous review of research and retrospective articles.
The proposition and style of "The Lancet" are determined after weekly discussions between the three editors-in-chief, and priority papers are published quickly in advance.
And the continued success of "The Lancet" series of professional monthly magazines ensures that "The Lancet" provides in-depth coverage of the major disciplines in medicine.
"So, our treatment plan is to not do any treatment and wait for the patient to wake up on his own?"
After listening to the case narrated by Mr. Chen, Liu Zhenming frowned slightly and looked thoughtful.
Mr. Chen nodded and said: "There is no other way. We have done all the tests we should do, but we have not found any symptoms. Since there is no way to start, we don't start. This is the safest way, or let them transfer to Xiehe Hospital."
Take a look over there and see what kind of diagnosis and treatment plan the other party will give."
"I agree with Mr. Chen's opinion. This is also the best solution I can think of."
"What Mr. Chen said makes sense."
"..."
After listening to Mr. Chen's opinions, several experts agreed.
"Okay then, I'll go and tell the patient's family about the situation. It's up to them whether to continue to stay in the hospital for observation or to be transferred to another hospital."
As Liu Zhenming spoke, he stood up from his seat and said to everyone very politely:
"You guys have worked hard today. Another day when everyone is free, let's go to the Longhe Restaurant next to the hospital and have a meal. I'll treat you."
"There's no need to treat you, Director Liu. We haven't been able to help you much. We deserve it!"
"Director Liu is too polite."
"We are all in the same department. It is inevitable that there will be times when we need each other. Xiao Liu, you don't have to be so polite. We will need your help in the future."
Several experts also stood up from their seats and prepared to leave, speaking politely to Liu Zhenming.
Liu Zhenming was able to reach the position of director of the department when he was in his fifties. Everyone knew that he had people and connections in the hospital.
Selling him a favor and giving him face is definitely much better than eating him a meal, and everyone can understand this.
When Liu Zhenming said he wanted to treat him to dinner, everyone declined in a tacit understanding.
After finally catching such an opportunity to sell him a favor, naturally he couldn't let him return it easily.
After everyone exchanged a few polite words in Liu Zhenming's office, they all went out together to return to the departments they were responsible for.
"Come on, Xiao Jiang, let's go over and talk to the patient's family about the situation."
After seeing off several colleagues, Liu Zhenming went to the nearby office to greet Jiang Yi, and the two of them went to the ward where Luo Yanning was located.
Jiang Yi came to Jishuitan Hospital in Beijing to study this time, and Liu Zhenming was her instructor.
Liu Zhenming has taught students for more than ten years and has never met a student more beautiful than Jiang Yi. He is willing to take her with him wherever he goes.
Such a good-looking, good-looking, gentle-spoken student will be very dignified when brought out.
"By the way, Xiao Jiang, what is the name of the patient's scenic spot called Long Scenic Area? I forgot it when you told it again. As this person gets older, his memory is really bad."
On the way to Luo Yanning's office, Liu Zhenming chatted with Jiang Yi without anything to say.
"It's called Heilongshan Scenic Area. It's been very popular on BL sites and Kuaiduo lately, and it's often listed as a hot recommendation."
Although she was extremely disgusted with the instructor Liu Zhenming, in order to successfully graduate, Jiang Yi could only laugh with her.
"Oh, yes, yes, the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area, the Hebei Province side is not far from the capital. I'll go and have a look some other time when I'm free."
Liu Zhenming couldn't feel Jiang Yi's disgust for him at all, and continued to talk to himself:
"That scenic spot is not far from Dr. Jiang's house, right? Dr. Jiang will also come with me to give me a tour guide, and I will go home for a visit by the way."
"..." Even though she is as gentle as Jiang Yi, she felt like scolding her after hearing Liu Zhenming's words.
I came here for exchange and further study, so I just asked myself to help him with some private work. Do you still want me to be his tour guide?
Jiang Yi took several deep breaths before suppressing the urge to curse and leave.
This is the second time she has come to Beijing for exchange and study this year, and it is also the last stage.
After successfully completing this exchange study at Jishuitan Hospital, I can be promoted when I return to Shishi No. 2 Hospital.
If you give up at this time, all your previous efforts will be in vain, and all the efforts you have made this year will be in vain.
Therefore, even though she was extremely unhappy and wanted to scold her every day, Jiang Yi still persisted.
Jiang Yi can afford a multi-million dollar car like a Lamborghini herself, so naturally she is not inferior to the salary of a hospital.
But she will take over her father's position as the dean in the future, which was also her ambition when she first chose to study medicine.
This exchange study at Jishuitan Hospital is related to her future career development, so she can only endure it again and again.
If it weren't for a good friend like Lin Suqing who provided her with psychological counseling every day, she would have been driven crazy by Liu Zhenming.
Chatting all the way, Liu Zhenming and Jiang Yi soon returned to the door of Luo Yanning's ward.
Entrusted by Zhao Yunlong, Liu Zhenming used his authority as director to arrange a separate ward for Luo Yanning.
In Jishuitan Hospital, where beds are hard to come by, even if you have a broken finger, you have to cover it and wait in line for treatment. This is a place where medical resources are extremely tight.
It is definitely not easy to be admitted to a private ward.
It also shows that Zhao Yunlong still has a lot of respect for Liu Zhenming. From the side, it also shows that the relationship between the two is real, not plastic brothers.
"Old Liu, you are back! How is Yan Ning's situation? Have you studied it for a long time and figured it out?"
When Zhao Yunlong saw Liu Zhenming's appearance, he rushed forward impatiently to ask him about the situation.
Liu Zhenming said truthfully: "Brother Yunlong, Mr. Luo's symptoms are extremely rare even in the diagnosis records of our Jishuitan Hospital.
I just asked Dr. Jiang to look through our database and couldn't even find any similar cases."
"Yes." Jiang Yi nodded in agreement. Liu Zhenming was telling the truth and was not exaggerating in the slightest.
Just when Liu Zhenming organized the expert consultation, Jiang Yi was collecting information in the office next door. Among the tens of millions of diagnostic records in the hospital, no case similar to Luo Yanning was found.
Although Luo Yanning's current state is unconscious, it is still very different from that of a vegetative state.
In medical terms, PVS is abbreviated as vegetative state, which is a special human state similar to the living state of plants.
In addition to retaining some instinctive nerve reflexes and the ability to metabolize matter and energy, vegetative people have completely lost their cognitive abilities (including the ability to recognize their own existence) and have no active activities.
This state is also called a vegetative state, an irreversible coma. The brainstem of a vegetative person still has functions. When delivering nutrients to the body, it can still digest and absorb them, and can use these energy to maintain the body's metabolism, including breathing, heartbeat, blood pressure, etc.
.
Vegetative people can also produce some instinctive reflexes in response to external stimuli, such as coughing, sneezing, yawning, etc., but the human body no longer has consciousness, perception, thinking and other advanced neural activities unique to humans.
Also, the EEG of a vegetative person shows stray waveforms, but the EEG of Luo Yanning is the same as that of a normal person in a sleeping state.
Therefore, even though Luo Yanning is still in a long-term coma, she is far from a vegetative state. This is something that the expert team headed by Liu Zhenming cannot understand.
"Then what should we do! You guys have been consulting for a long time and still haven't come up with any treatment plan? You can't just do examinations and no treatment at all!"
Zhang Jinwu was much more nervous than Zhao Yunlong, and even his tone of voice was full of complaints.
"Brother Yunlong, you introduced me. I must have a good relationship with you, so I'll tell you straight."
Liu Zhenming ignored Zhang Jinwu's complaints, turned to look at Zhao Yunlong and said:
"Although situations like Mr. Luo's are extremely rare, there have been similar cases around the world..."
Liu Zhenming told everyone about the cases that Mr. Chen had seen in the journal "The Lancet" and finally said:
"We have given two plans. The first is to continue to observe. We will monitor the patient's vital signs at any time until he wakes up.
Second, you can transfer to Union Medical College Hospital to see if they have a suitable treatment plan."
"Continue to stay for observation, or transfer to another hospital?"
After Zhao Yunlong heard the two treatment plans given by Liu Zhenming, he turned to look at Xu Kejing, waiting for her decision.
Thank you all for your continued support, and I would like to wish you all a happy new year.
In the new year, I wish everyone good health and prosperity.
