Speaking of cases, Yang Ping is very interested.
"Send me the information and I'll go there again when I have time."
Professor Yao was very happy to hear that Yang Ping agreed. Professor Yang can study this case together, and there is a high probability that a solution can be found.
For organ transplantation of different blood types, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nandu Medical University is currently one of the few hospitals in China that masters this technology.
Professor Yao has performed some such cases before, but most of them were liver and kidney transplants. There is no precedent for heart transplantation, so we are still exploring.
For organ transplantation of different blood types, the key technology is the "three-step blood washing method".
The first step is plasma double membrane filtration: filtration is used to help patients filter out coagulation factors and some antibodies in the blood.
The second step is to use special drugs to remove the corresponding antibodies in the patient's blood: blood antibodies are produced by human B lymphocytes. Use drugs to kill the B lymphocytes, so that the antibody content in the patient's plasma will be greatly increased in a short period of time.
Lower.
The third step is to use approximately 3500 ml of plasma corresponding to the transplanted organ to help the patient perform systemic plasma exchange.
Professor Yao has not only mastered these techniques, but is also very skilled. However, for the cases he is facing now, the three-step blood washing method may not be enough, and more advanced techniques are needed.
Yang Ping calculated the date and the time was very tight.
"The patient has dilated cardiomyopathy. The myocardium is now as thin as a piece of paper. I'm afraid we won't be able to wait long?" Professor Yao was worried.
Yang Ping heard that the condition was still serious, so he said: "Send the medical records to my email as soon as possible, and I will find time to take a look tomorrow morning."
"Then I will pick you up tomorrow morning?" Professor Yao said before leaving.
Yang Ping shook his head and said, "No, I'll go by myself."

In the evening, Yang Ping and Xiao Su went to the supermarket in the community to buy some groceries. Every time they bought groceries, Yang Ping basically followed Xiao Su as a porter.
Unless there are special circumstances, they usually eat at home.
Xiao Su works tirelessly, and even with two people, she can cook several dishes. Each dish has a small portion, but she will change her cooking style every day.
Xiao Su was responsible for washing vegetables and cooking, while Yang Ping was busy opening the computer in the study room to read the medical records sent by Professor Yao.
This male patient is only 45 years old and has dilated cardiomyopathy. After cardiac color ultrasound examination, the diameter of the left ventricle has expanded to 76 mm, while the left ventricle of a normal person is about 45 mm, and the volume of the heart is more than twice that of a normal person, and the function is very
Poor, the left ventricular ejection fraction has dropped to 28%, while in normal people it is at least 50%.
With such a poor heart, the heart muscle is as thin as a piece of paper, and it really can't last more than a few days.
This patient has been hospitalized and is actively undergoing anti-heart failure treatment, but his systemic circulation fluctuates and his internal environment is disordered. Dopamine and norepinephrine are needed to maintain blood pressure.
Professor Yao has installed an intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation device on this patient to assist the left ventricle, so that he can barely maintain a certain function.
"It's time to eat!"
Xiao Su shouted towards the study room, and Yang Ping came back from his thoughts.
Although the two of them were living a small life, Xiao Su didn't have to worry about it. She cooked three dishes and one soup. Her cooking skills are good, and now Yang Ping is used to her food, and he doesn't feel comfortable without eating it for a few days.
"I went home yesterday. When I returned to the hospital, my mother solemnly handed me the household registration book. I asked, what are you doing? My mother said that when my daughter is older, she has to keep the household registration book by herself." Xiao Su ate.
While talking.
When my daughter gets older, she has to keep her household registration book by herself. Is there such a rule?
Xiao Su asked her father at that time if he had never heard of such a rule?
Dad said: "These are the rules at home. Your mother made the rules at home and asked you to keep them. You keep them."
"Then I thought about it, is this a gentle way of urging me to get married? Are you trying to drive me out of marriage?"
The two of them had always wanted to pick a date to get their marriage certificate, but they were so busy that they forgot about this important event.
According to the opinions of Professor Su and Mrs. Su, they are busy with work and career. They should obtain the certificate first and then arrange the wedding later. All the traditional tedious things are exempted.
It's just that Yang Ping feels that it's a bit sorry for Xiao Su to get a certificate in such a simple way.
However, getting the certificate early will make the girl feel at ease, and she can apply for it again after the wedding.
Yang Ping is usually busy with work, apart from surgery and doing scientific research. Xiao Su has no complaints at all and is very understanding. It can be said that he has really found the right person.
However, the two of them work together every day, which is another kind of long-term relationship.
Doctors are a special profession. If the other party does not understand, problems can easily arise. The bigger the hospital, the busier the doctor is.
In a large hospital like Union Medical College, don’t think about a potential partner for the first five years after you start working.
How can we talk about being in the hospital from 6 to 9 o'clock every day for 365 days a year? Who can stand this kind of boyfriend or girlfriend?
I was busy when I was young, but I am still busy when I reach the expert level.
Many surgeons who have reached the professor level perform surgeries every day, from morning till night, endlessly.
When Yang Ping heard Xiao Su's words, he gently put down Kuaizi and looked at Xiao Su affectionately: "Shall we get married tomorrow?"
Xiao Su looked at the straight man in front of her who studied surgery all day long. Is this a proposal? She nodded: "Let's take an hour tomorrow morning to get the marriage certificate!"
"I just feel very guilty that such a big thing can be handled so easily." Yang Ping expressed his thoughts.
At least get a room full of roses and hold a proposal ceremony. Isn’t it said that the sense of ceremony is very important?
Xiao Su smiled and said: "The ceremony is empty, it is just a mental sustenance and expectation. We don't need these, and I really have no interest in them. Tomorrow we will take an hour off temporarily to get the marriage certificate."
"Well! I will definitely give you a different wedding in the future."
"Well! I don't care about that."
Yang Ping grabbed Xiao Su's hand, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

After finishing their shift the next day, both of them took temporary leave and drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.
The two held hands and walked out of the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau holding bright red marriage certificates.
"Husband!"
"Wife!"
The two smiled, walked hand in hand to the parking lot, got in the car, and returned to the hospital.
While still in the car, Yang Ping received a call from Director Zhou of the Department of Science and Education. His new project, stem cell-based muscle cultivation, had been approved by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.
Yang Ping had already started research on this topic, but it was all done with money from his own fund. Sanbo Hospital also helped him apply for the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Although it is not much, it is of great significance.
For example, the annual review of hospitals and departments requires the number of these national-level topics.
Yang Ping doesn't care about these, but the hospital and departments need these, and the team needs these.
"It's a coincidence that the day we received the certificate happened to be the day when the new project passed the national approval." Yang Ping said with a smile.
Xiao Su has greater expectations for her husband: "Didn't you say you would give me a special wedding? Winning a grand prize for this project?"
"Nobel? How about it?" Yang Ping teased.
Xiao Su is indeed very serious: "You said it, it's settled, give me the Nobel Prize at the wedding!"
Not to mention, Xiao Su feels that it is not strange for her husband’s ability to win the Nobel Prize in the future.
Along the way, the two of them felt sweet in their hearts. In the past, they could only be called boyfriend and girlfriend, but now they are a real couple.
I used to drive illegally, but now I drive with a license, which is completely different.
"Let's --- find a place to hang out and then have a meal to celebrate me finding a good wife and you finding a good husband."
"Narcissist! It's better for me to go back and cook. The sanitary conditions outside are not good and unhealthy. I'd rather eat as little as possible." Xiao Su disagreed.
"I forgot, I have to go to Annex 1 today. Professor Yao has a special patient who wants to see me." Yang Ping remembered the agreement he made with Professor Yao yesterday.
"Go quickly and take me to the hospital. You can go directly to Annex 1. Corey has made arrangements. Come back for dinner in the evening." Xiao Su asked with concern.
"Well, I will definitely come back. Today is a special day."
