"There is also a team at Nandu University of Technology that is researching brain-computer interface technology. I don't know how the progress is? Their members who are responsible for EEG signal research often ask me questions and even invite me to participate."
burst out again.
"Xu Zhiliang, you find them. If possible, we can cooperate. We will discuss this matter separately after the meeting."
Yang Ping already has a clear plan in mind. He wants to use the research on brain-computer interfaces to develop artificial transmission of neural signals, and finally overcome the recovery of spinal cord injuries.
In the system space, he has almost unlimited time to read. This massive reading gives Yang Ping a breadth and depth of professional skills that ordinary people cannot achieve.
"I can also help contact ATR." Takahashi always hopes to do something.
He always hopes to do something meaningful, like submitting a certificate of honor, to build a stronger relationship with Yang Ping.
"Well, Takahashi, do you know more about their progress and technical routes?"
Yang Ping admired Takahashi's transformation very much. This kind of learning spirit corresponds to an old Chinese saying, nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing can do it.
After free discussion, everyone's opinions were consistent and clear. Yu Shuilian's postoperative treatment is divided into three stages. The first step is to try to avoid infection and organ failure and survive the dangerous period; the second step is to reconstruct the anus and
The urethra is restored to the function of defecation and urination; 3. The third step is to restore the ability to walk upright with the help of prostheses as much as possible. Every step of the task is very arduous.
Yang Ping paused and summarized what he just said: "Everyone's opinions are relatively clear. Our most pressing issue at present is to help patients successfully overcome the difficulties of infection and organ failure; then reconstruct the anus and urethra, restore physiological excretion ability; and finally restore
The patient's ability to walk upright; throughout the process, psychological counseling must be provided to establish the patient's optimistic and positive mental state."
Song Zimo uses a notebook to take minutes of meetings, which must be written into the course of the disease, with a dedicated page for case discussion.
As for Dr. Yang, Dr. Yang hasn't expressed his opinions yet. Everyone is looking forward to Yang Ping saying a few words, especially the students, who are eagerly waiting for Yang Ping to speak.
Yang Ping knew that everyone was waiting, so he sorted it out a little and said: "The patient's bladder is still there, retaining sphincter function and micturition reflex. It can control urination and there will be no urinary incontinence in the future; however, the anus, rectum and sigmoid colon are all
The anus has been resected and reconstructed. The biggest problem before us is how to reconstruct the original anal sphincter function and defecation reflex to avoid fecal incontinence. If the patient becomes fecal incontinent in the future, the quality of life will be reduced a lot."
Takahashi originally thought that the second-stage surgery would only be at the level of plastic surgery and would only establish the excretion pipeline. Unexpectedly, Yang Ping also wanted to rebuild the anal sphincter function and defecation reflex in order to simulate normal functions.
Yes, why didn't he think of this? Takahashi immediately took out his notebook and recorded that Dr. Yang's surgical skills and surgical thinking were far superior to his own. After only a few days here, he felt that he had gained a lot.
"This is a brand new topic. The anal sphincter is the orbicularis muscle. There are very few parts of the human body where the orbicularis muscle exists. Around the eyes, around the lips, and the bladder neck, these parts are all orbicularis muscles. It is impossible to use these as donors for reconstruction.
Anus?" Takahashi relaxed a lot and spoke freely like a young student.
"How do you open and close your mouth? How do you open and close your eyes? How do you control your bladder to urinate? It's impossible for any one of them to replace the anal sphincter, right?"
Zhang Lin felt that this was a meeting of gods, and he couldn't get in the conversation. He was completely marginalized. He had to say a few words no matter what if he found an opportunity.
"Is it possible to take part of it as a donor? After all, muscle fibers and muscle strength have plasticity. Even if part of it is cut away, can it be restored to its original shape and strength through training?"
Xiaowu finally caught up with him. He was with a group of talented people. He was most afraid of this kind of discussion. He just chatted and chatted. He went from "Nature" to "Science" and his head was dizzy. It was hard to catch him.
If you hold your tail a little, you can swing it gently without even catching the hair.
The brothers and sisters looked at each other, and there was an instant resonance: Thank God, I caught the tail of the discussion.
"Not only is the replacement material for the sphincter a problem, but the reconstruction of the anal defecation reflex is also a problem. In order to reconstruct the bladder reflex for patients with spinal cord injuries, Professor Xiao Chuanguo from Wuhan Tongji Hospital created the Xiao reflex arc, which has achieved certain success, and we can learn from it."
Song Zimo was silent for a while and then returned to the center of the discussion.
"This is definitely a difficult problem. How to reconstruct it will not be discussed at this meeting. This is a homework for everyone. I hope that in two weeks, everyone will come up with a specific surgical plan. If you have no objections, today's
Is this the end of the case discussion?”
Everyone agreed that if the discussion continues, we will not be able to come up with a concrete plan even by tomorrow.
Takahashi was very interested in this assignment. This was a case discussion in the department, and the assigned assignment was such a profound question.
This kind of surgery, even if there are materials available and a plan to follow, the surgery itself is very difficult and requires knowledge from various disciplines such as orthopedic surgery, reconstructive surgery, plastic surgery, microsurgery, neurosurgery, gastrointestinal surgery, anorectal surgery, etc.
Only then can such an operation be completed.
"Dr. Yang, can you tell us about Yu Shuilian's surgery, how your garbled surgery was performed, and why it was arranged like this?" Takahashi was afraid that Yang Ping would end the meeting.
Yang Ping told Guo Gaoqiao that this surgical method has no learning value because it is too difficult and cannot be copied by others.
Takahashi also knew in his heart that he couldn't do it, but he didn't want to give up after all. Even if he couldn't learn it, he still had to understand the principle.
There were five large puzzles on the table, which were the teaching aids prepared by Xiao Wu. Yang Ping stood up, tore open the film of the five puzzles, took out all the pieces that had been put together, poured them on the table, and then completely messed them up.
The background colors of these five puzzles are different, namely red, yellow, blue, green, and purple, but now they are all mixed together and become a messy pile.
"Everyone, please watch clearly. I will demonstrate the routine surgery method first."
Yang Ping didn't explain much. He moved very quickly in his hands. He sorted the pieces according to the background color first, picked out the ones of the same color and put them in a pile, and then moved them piece by piece in the order of red, yellow, blue, green and purple.
The puzzle pieces are put together, and each piece of the puzzle is put together in the order of left, right, up and down.
As the pieces were pressed in one by one, the five-piece puzzle was quickly put together in order. Everyone was amazed at his memory and puzzle ability.
Yang Ping has reorganized the puzzle pieces and mixed them together into a pile, with various colors mixed together in a mess.
"Now, I will demonstrate another surgical method, which is what you call garbled surgery."
This time, Yang Ping did not sort the small pieces, but just took them from the pile of pieces and put whichever piece he got, no matter which piece of the puzzle it was or which position it was in, directly to its original position.
Sometimes this piece of the puzzle is attached, sometimes that piece is attached, sometimes it is the center of the puzzle, sometimes it is the edge of the puzzle, there is no order or structure, whatever piece is convenient, just take that piece.
Slowly, there are fewer and fewer pieces on the table, and the picture of the puzzle becomes more and more complete. When the last piece is pressed in, all the pieces of the puzzle are put together, and there is no missing piece.
The language explanation was too difficult, so Yang Ping used a puzzle to demonstrate his garbled surgery in an easy-to-understand manner.
However, everyone looked at the magic and were not ready yet. The puzzle had been successfully put together twice using two methods.
Song Zimo, Xu Zhiliang and Gao Qiao all stood up, picked up a few puzzle pieces on the table and looked at them. There were no mistakes at all.
These puzzle pieces, even the film, had just been torn off, and Yang Ping had only come into contact with them temporarily. It was impossible to memorize them in advance, and there was no reason to deliberately fake them for the sake of a demonstration.
What a powerful brain, what a powerful overall planning ability. Is this a human head?
The second jigsaw puzzle actually took much less time than the first jigsaw puzzle. If someone else had tried to jigsaw the puzzle using the second method, they would have definitely fallen into chaos.
Takahashi understood that this was why Yang Ping told him not to learn, because others simply couldn't do it.
The puzzle pieces were scattered on the conference table, and Takahashi kept fiddling with them, still unfinished.
Yu Shuilian's surgery, each operation is a piece of the puzzle, and it is an emergency rescue operation. There is no time to get familiar with the operation, so it is like several brand-new puzzle pieces thrown in front of you. There is no time to think, and you start to put it together without even a chance to hesitate.
nothing.
In this case, no one will choose the second method. As long as normal people, they will definitely choose the first method.
"Can you?" Xu Zhiliang asked Song Zimo.
Song Zimo shook his head: "Yes, but the speed will be slower than the first method, and a certain amount of thinking and searching time will be required in the middle."
"Me too. If it's a jigsaw puzzle competition, I wouldn't dare to use the second method." Xu Zhiliang was convinced.
Takahashi played with the puzzle pieces as if looking at magic props: "Teacher Wu, did you buy this new one?"
Xiao Wu crumpled the film on the table into a ball: "The films are all freshly torn off. Dr. Yang asked me to bring a few puzzle pieces. I don't know what they are for. I thought they were for Sisi to play with."
Takahashi took a breath. The Yang Ping who crushed him in the academic meeting not only had the strongest hands, but also had the strongest brain.
