There was still some time before lunch, August took Yang Ping to visit Harlachen Orthopedic Hospital, and professors such as William, Lloyd and Rimbaud also accompanied him.
Harlachen Orthopedic Hospital is an orthopedic specialty hospital. Its most famous is the Spine Surgery Center. The center is divided into four departments and receives 20,000 patients every year. August is the director of the Spine Center and is also the hospital.
long.
In addition to spine surgery, trauma orthopedics, joint surgery, sports medicine, foot and ankle surgery, pediatric neuro-orthopedics and rehabilitation are also among the best in the world.
The Rehabilitation Department has a group of the world's top rehabilitation doctors and cutting-edge rehabilitation equipment worth over 200 million yuan. Many stars of the Bayern football team have surgeries and rehabilitation here. When Yang Ping visited, he heard that a star was preparing to come for rehabilitation.
No wonder August boasted at Sanbo Hospital about getting everyone a batch of jerseys signed by Bayern stars.
The Spinal Pain Rehabilitation Department, which is a division of the Rehabilitation Department, uses a brand-new concept to treat spinal pain with outstanding results.
Patients with spinal pain, such as neck pain, low back pain, etc. are the largest group of orthopedic outpatients. In many cases, the treatment of these patients is a bit rough. The purpose of Auguste's spinal pain rehabilitation department is to treat this group of patients.
Go into in-depth detail.
In front of his mentor, Auguste was not modest, saying that he played a very important role in the development of the hospital. He founded the Spine Center almost by himself. Under his management, the entire hospital flourished and became world-class.
As the visit continued, directors of various subjects slowly joined the accompanying team. Because Yang Ping and August had always communicated in Chinese, these accompanying experts could not get in the conversation and could only follow the team silently, occasionally lowering their voices to each other.
Have a few words.
After visiting the rehabilitation department, August said proudly:
"Professor, if you have any new technology in the future, you must first think of cooperating with us. We will definitely make everything beautiful."
Yang Ping nodded. Indeed, this hospital is very good in terms of technology and management and can become a European diffusion point for new technologies.
Whether a hospital's orthopedics department is really strong depends on the supporting rehabilitation department, because post-operative rehabilitation after orthopedic surgery is very important. Without scientific and standardized rehabilitation, there will be no good functions.
For example, there is a lot of rehabilitation content after spinal surgery, such as back muscle training, posture correction, etc. If the rehabilitation cannot keep up, even if the surgery is very beautiful, the effect may always appear to be poor.
After visiting these departments, Yang Ping also had a relatively thorough understanding of the hospital and summarized some of the core elements of its success: modern orthopedic diagnosis and treatment solutions; making patients feel at home; reducing pain for orthopedic patients; scientific and rapid rehabilitation plans; shortening the length of stay.
, hospitalization for the largest orthopedic surgery cannot exceed five days; long-term and meticulous follow-up.
In these aspects, Harlachen Orthopedic Hospital can be said to have achieved the ultimate. For example, the first one is the modern orthopedic diagnosis and treatment plan. For each disease, they have their own diagnosis and treatment plan. These plans are constantly modified to keep pace with the world's most advanced technology.
Doctors continue to receive training and keep pace with the world in terms of concepts and techniques. The foundation of each doctor remains the same, and there will be no uneven problems.
The other one is to reduce the patient's pain. Here, pain is truly treated as the fifth vital sign. Once pain problems occur, doctors and nurses take it very seriously as if they are facing an enemy.
Professional doctors in the pain department are involved in specifying the patient's analgesic plan. They will often do bedside rounds to check the analgesic effect. If there is any dissatisfaction, the plan will be adjusted in a timely manner.
Moreover, the pain department continues to accumulate experience and research new pain relief solutions.
From admission to discharge, the patient is truly painless, which is very important to the patient's medical experience.
There is also a long-term and meticulous follow-up. There is a special follow-up system here. Each patient's data is imported into the system. The team responsible for follow-up will regularly conduct online, phone, letter or door-to-door follow-up according to different conditions. For some special conditions,
The patient and the attending doctor will take the time to come to the patient's home for personal follow-up visits. These follow-up visits are not just months or years, but plans for decades or even lifelong follow-up visits.
Medical treatment is an overall system, and every part is a part of the system. It is not enough to do each part well, but it must be organically combined to make the whole system become an efficient organism.
Learning from each other's strengths and exchanging knowledge, every time Yang Ping visited a hospital, he not only paid special attention to medical technology, but also had a special interest in management. He decided to let Boss Cheng take time to visit here in the future.
"For the clinical trials of spinal external fixators, we will open a separate area in the spine center, and I will personally be responsible for the operation of this area." After visiting the hospital, August introduced his plan.
Taking this place as the center, August and Harlachen are fully capable of promoting spinal external fixator technology to Europe.
"I will set up a new follow-up team to conduct long-term follow-up of patients and accumulate data."
The visiting team returned to the Spine Center.
When it was almost time, August took Yang Ping to a hotel near the hospital for dinner.
---
The luncheon was simple but grand, a German-style buffet. Marcus followed August's request and reserved the hotel's buffet restaurant.
There are a variety of German delicacies, such as charcoal-grilled pig's feet, the skin is crispy but not dry, and the chew is strong. The pork is also full of flavor and full of aroma. It is very good to eat with mustard sauce or hot sauce; Munich black and white sausage, which is made of minced small
It is a mixture of beef and marinated pork, supplemented by seasonings such as parsley, nutmeg, cardamom, scallions, ginger, lemon and onions. It is supplemented with sweet mustard sauce for a unique flavor.
In addition to these two signature traditional delicacies, there are also apple crisps, black forest cakes, various fruits, various breads, and various styles of barbecue.
Director-level doctors from the entire Haraching Orthopedic Hospital are basically present. Doctors in Germany are divided into director, mid-level doctors, general specialists, and assistant doctors. There are no deputy directors and deputy chief doctors. Assistant doctors are equivalent to our trained doctors.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As August’s mentor, Yang Ping, these directors all want to meet him.
Everyone wanted to chat with Professor Yang, so Yang Ping felt like the stars were shining over the moon.
No matter where he goes, the directors will approach him intentionally or unintentionally, and then surround him, hoping to find an opportunity to strike up a conversation.
It’s just that Chinese has become a barrier to communication. Naturally, at banquets, Chinese has become synonymous with high-end and high-end.
Marcus, who is in his thirties, was originally just an unknown minor player at such banquets, but because of his Chinese skills, his net worth has skyrocketed, and the big guys have to take a high look at him.
The more this happened, the more Marcus became distracted. From time to time, he would say a sentence in Chinese when chatting with his compatriots. When the other party looked confused, Marcus apologized: "I didn't switch over for a while."
Individuals pick out the food they like on their plates, and then sit at the long table to enjoy it while the piano solo plays continuously, very Bavarian style.
The old butler with a Mediterranean hairstyle accompanied Mr. Duke and shuttled among the crowd. Normally, the old Duke would never attend such an ordinary banquet.
But this time it was different. The protagonist of the banquet was his son's savior.
The old Duke found August and Yang Ping and bowed to Yang Ping: "Dear professor, I don't know if I can take time out of my busy schedule to go to your castle. I am very eager to enjoy the red wine in the cellar with the professor."
Auguste acted as translator.
The only people who can be invited to the old Duke's Castle as guests, apart from close personal friends, are European politicians and businessmen, or prominent academic giants.
The Duke's castle is in the same town in Bavaria, a two-hour drive away.
Yang Ping did not agree immediately, but just said: "Thank you for your kindness, I will definitely make time to go there in the future."
"We look forward to seeing you!" The old Duke bowed slightly again.
This was a gathering of doctors, and his appearance was just to personally extend an invitation to Yang Ping. Although he did not receive a confirmed reply from Yang Ping, the old Duke was very satisfied.
The future is long, and with August’s friendship with the Chinese professor, the old Duke will definitely be able to have a good time with the Chinese professor in the future.
As the head of a large European conglomerate, the old Duke's status in Europe can be said to be all-powerful.
Rich people more or less have the dream of immortality. Although this is impossible, it is still possible to extend life.
Therefore, the old Duke could not let go of this opportunity to make friends with a talented doctor.
Generously funding Maninstein is not only a charity to promote the development of medicine, but also because this genius doctor can save his life at a critical moment, and the success of his scientific research can save his life.
The old Duke walked around symbolically accompanied by the butler, then greeted August and left the restaurant. He came only for Yang Ping.
“The old Duke also has an operation waiting for him—a heart bypass surgery, performed by Maninstein!” August told Yang Ping after the old Duke left.
"Maninstein can also bypass the heart?" Yang Ping felt that this all-rounder lived up to his reputation.
August nodded: "He and Professor Golan from Italy are the doctors with the highest success rate in heart bypass surgery in Europe. They have been competing with each other about success rate and bypass speed. Golan's fastest current bridge is two minutes and twelve seconds."
, but it was surpassed by Mannstein’s two minutes and ten seconds last month.”
Everyone has troubles, even the rich old Duke has his own troubles.
For example, his beloved son has been troubled by illness. Fortunately, his troubles are finally solved this time.
He himself was also suffering from coronary heart disease. Interventional stents could no longer solve the problem, so he had to undergo thoracotomy and coronary artery bypass grafting.
"But they encountered a problem. There was some kind of diffuse disease in the distal end of the coronary artery of the old Duke. The arteries were very thin, and atherosclerosis made the blood vessels almost solid. Now they are faced with the dilemma of having nowhere to build a "bridge".
They are working together to solve this problem." August is a friend of the old Duke and knows that the old Duke has been worried about this matter.
If the old Duke is in this situation, he does encounter a problem, which is not so easy to solve.
Yang Ping heard the name of Mannstein from August several times, and also saw the papers of this great figure. He was indeed a genius.
This genius has made some progress in repairing spinal cord and nerve injuries, especially in connection with severing, and these advances are at the forefront of this field.
Some people predict that if this project succeeds, this person may win the Nobel Prize again.
"Maninstein has a very weird temper and acts in a maverick way. He is almost fanatical about medicine, but his enjoyment of life is also very exaggerated. He refuses to contact anyone when he is on vacation. I heard that he is currently vacationing on a beach in Iceland.
There are two young models. This person is forgetful easily, and he often forgets things that have nothing to do with his research topic."
August also admired this genius very much. He was a living treasure in the German medical community.
"Professor Yang, hello!"
Professor Lloyd came over to say hello in blunt Chinese.
August frowned, where did this guy learn such poor Chinese.
Lloyd spotted an empty seat next to Yang Ping, immediately put down his dinner plate, and sat down uninvited.
"Hello!"
Yang Ping greeted him.
However, this big boss only knew one sentence, and there was no follow-up to what he said, and he couldn't understand anything. He turned to August for help with blank eyes.
"This is Professor Lloyd from Charité General Hospital!" August introduced again.
With August's translation, Lloyd felt much more confident.
"Professor Yang, can I ask a few questions?"
It was not appropriate to have an academic discussion over a meal, but Lloyd couldn't wait any longer. Academic people are so simple.
"sure!"
Yang Ping likes such straightforward people.
"Little Duke's artificial thorax is a genius idea. The most ingenious thing is that he seeks a balance between cardiac decompression and overconsumption. In fact, this is how I understand it. The heart must be decompressed, but after decompression,
This will increase the workload, so there is a balance in the middle. The two curves extend separately, and they have a safety correlation. If the decompression and overconsumption can be controlled within a safe area by some means, this problem can be solved. You can find
This curve of safe interaction, right?”
Lloyd didn't care that it was dinner time and confessed all his questions.
These are indeed world-class experts, and they have already figured out the theory behind their own artificial thorax.
"That's it. Without decompression, the heart will overuse and fail due to bone compression. After decompression, the heart will overuse and fail due to the increased capacity of the systemic and pulmonary circulation. It's like a high-rise building on fire and there is no way out.
The only way to escape is to jump off the building. If you jump off the building, you will fall to your death. If you don't jump off the building, you will be burned to death. The little Duke is faced with this two-way dilemma. Fortunately, there is no solution. He can release the external pressure bit by bit, and gradually
Increase loop compliance, control each point within a safe area, and achieve the goal step by step, just like a person seeking survival. He gets a lifeline and goes down bit by bit along the rope to return to the ground."
Yang Ping felt that this metaphor was more appropriate and easier for people to understand.
"But how did you find this safety rope?" Lloyd understood probably more than half of it.
"There are two ways to find it. One is to accumulate data through trial and error. Obviously this is impossible. The other is to obtain data through calculation. What is the current pressure, what is the cycle compliance, how much pressure is relieved, how much the load increases, and how much the load increases each time.
The critical point of heart collapse at a node can be calculated, but the amount of calculation is relatively large and there are many factors to be considered. I have many calculation manuscripts here. If you need it, you can contact Dr. Ao."
After Yang Ping finished speaking, Lloyd finally understood.
