After Guo Peihua woke up, he kept telling doctors and nurses about his out-of-body experience.
He wanted to tell the nurse, who was drawing blood for him and was so busy that she had no time to listen to his nonsense.
But regardless of whether the nurse wanted to listen or not, Guo Peihua vividly described all the strange experiences he had during his coma, such as the dark abyss, a voice in his ears, a glimmer of light in the distance, etc.
"Really, don't believe it. I really had an out-of-body experience. When I was being rescued in the operating room, I clearly felt like I was floating in the air. I could see the doctor operating on me."
As a materialistic medical staff, no one would believe his story. It is caused by hallucination or abnormal activity of brain cells.
After the nurse drew blood, she looked at Guo Peihua expressionlessly, turned off the three-way switch for the indwelling needle, and said to another nurse: "Let the doctor calm him down, he is a little restless."
Guo Peihua was so frightened that he shut up immediately. He didn't want to fall asleep again.
The nurse didn't believe him, and Guo Peihua was very anxious. He asked the doctor, but he was lying on the bed and still wearing a restraint belt. Where could he find a doctor?
Finally Dr. Ruan came over for rounds, checked Guo Peihua's consciousness and auscultated his heart. Guo Peihua seized this opportunity and told Dr. Ruan again.
What he said was so miraculous that it sounded like the truth.
"Dr. Ruan, listen to me. It's absolutely true. I felt like there was a dark void all around me. The dark void was very oppressive, and the space kept twisting and fluctuating. I was very scared, so I ran in a direction randomly, and then a face appeared.
, the voice reminded me in my ears---Go back, child, go back quickly."
"Later I remembered that the face was that of my deceased grandfather. No wonder it felt familiar."
Dr. Ruan smiled and said: "Does your grandfather speak Mandarin or dialect?"
Guo Peihua thought for a while: "Dialect, yes, it's dialect."
"So I turned around and ran in the other direction, and the voice shouted again - run, kid, don't stop, keep running that way. Finally, I saw a glimmer of light. I was so exhausted that I almost collapsed from exhaustion.
But I gritted my teeth and kept running. The light became brighter and brighter until finally the light enveloped me and made me unable to open my eyes. I tried my best to block the light and saw a huge door in front of me. I gritted my teeth and walked forward.
Enter the gate and open your heavy eyelids facing the dazzling light."
"So you saw us?" Dr. Ruan caught his words.
Guo Peihua nodded: "Yes!"
"That's Director Kang's flashlight stimulating you. The flashlight light stimulates the retinal cells, which then generates light signals in the cerebral cortex, so you can see light." Dr. Ruan said leisurely.
Guo Peihua was suddenly speechless. He thought for a while and seemed to remember something before continuing: "Then what happened to my grandfather's face?"
"You don't have the memory of your grandfather in your mind?" Dr. Ruan asked him.
Guo Peihua nodded, as if he was still persistent, and murmured to himself: "This is really strange. If it hadn't been for that face guiding me, and if I hadn't run as hard as I could, I would never have been able to come back."
Dr. Ruan saw that he was stubborn, so he said: "If 120 doesn't pull you, can you run back by yourself? If Professor Yang doesn't operate on you, can you run back by yourself?"
Guo Peihua was speechless. After thinking about it, it seemed that this was also the case.
He suddenly seemed to have found new evidence, and added: "I haven't seen Professor Yang before, have I? I looked familiar to Professor Yang the first time I saw him, because when he operated on me, I was floating in the sky above the operating room.
, I could see Professor Yang operating on me, and I could see his face clearly, so the first time Professor Yang came for ward rounds, I recognized him---"
"During the operation, everyone wore sterile caps and masks, covering them tightly. Can you clearly see Professor Yang's face in the floating one? Can you still remember it?"
"Professor Yang wears a mask every time he does ward rounds. How can you tell him?"
Dr. Ruan criticized Guo Peihua again.
"Is that so? Do you wear a hat and a mask during surgery?"
Guo Peihua was speechless again and fell into thinking, trying to figure out how to convince Dr. Ruan. After all, Dr. Ruan was willing to listen to what he had to say, but the other doctors and nurses didn't listen at all.
"It's okay, you can continue thinking. It's best to write it down in a notebook." Dr. Ruan didn't have time to chat with him.
Guo Peihua held Dr. Ruan's hand: "Don't leave, I haven't finished speaking yet."
At this time, Yang Ping happened to come over for ward rounds, and brought Fatty Liang and Director Xiang of the Thoracic Surgery Department with him. Dr. Ruan stayed behind to accompany Yang Ping on ward rounds.
"The vital signs are stable, the blood pressure and blood oxygen are normal, the hemoglobin is over 100, and the CTA has been reviewed after surgery." Dr. Ruan reported the latest situation.
Yang Ping listened to the heart sound and found nothing abnormal. He said, "I have seen the CTA after the operation. It is very good. How is your mental state?"
Dr. Ruan smiled and said: "I am in good spirits, but I am a little excited. Every day I am told about supernatural events, that his soul left his body, that he entered the four-dimensional space for a while, and then ran back by himself."
"I didn't run back by myself, it was my grandfather who showed me the way, so I ran back." Guo Peihua corrected.
Dr. Ruan said: "Can we transfer out of CCU and back to general surgery?"
Everyone came out of the ward and went back to the doctor's office to sit down.
"Return to our general surgery department. Please ask the psychiatry department to come over and make an evaluation before transferring." Yang Ping ordered Dr. Ruan.
"In fact, this situation is not uncommon. From a scientific perspective, after a patient is in a coma or anesthesia state, certain brain cells will be in abnormal activity, or there will be abnormal connections between some brain cells. These abnormal activities or abnormal connections in the brain
The cells will produce some illusions."
Fatty Liang has more experience. He has done some post-anesthesia surveys, and it is true that some patients will have this kind of situation after surgery, especially after using certain anesthetics.
"You said - what he said may be true and not nonsense?" Dr. Ruan was very curious. He was not very professional in anesthesia.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fatty Liang nodded: "Some anesthetic patients have good experiences and have sweet dreams, such as our commonly used short-acting intravenous general anesthesia drug---Propor
Phenol, commonly known as milk, will bring sweet dreams to patients and produce a sense of pleasure and relaxation. If you are interested, you can go to the endoscopy room of the outpatient clinic to have a look, because many gastrointestinal endoscopy procedures there use propofol intravenously.
For general anesthesia, you can conduct a survey to investigate how these patients recall their experiences during anesthesia after waking up. I did a survey on this topic when I was a second-year master's student."
"Is this really true?" Dr. Ruan became interested in Guo Peihua's description.
Fatty Liang said: "During propofol anesthesia, a few people will have sexual hallucinations. When I was studying for a master's degree, a female patient woke up in the endoscopy clinic of the hospital and accused the doctor of sexual assault. However, the doctor at that time was very cautious.
, for whatever reason, he would never be alone with a female patient, and a nurse would accompany him throughout the treatment process, so he was able to prove his innocence in the end."
Dr. Ruan has become more knowledgeable this time, and it seems that there may be knowledge behind the patient's "nonsense".
Fatty Liang saw that Dr. Ruan was very interested, so he said a few more words: "After discovering the characteristics of propofol, some teams suddenly wondered whether this drug could be used to treat depression. The anesthesiology team of Modu Sixth Hospital
We will conduct research on this to decipher the neural mechanism of propofol’s euphoria, thereby exploring the potential of propofol’s new use in the treatment of depression.”
"There is a psychiatric team in the United States that has started clinical research on using propofol to treat depression in volunteers and achieved very good results."
"But propofol is addictive, so research needs to be quite cautious."
"It's just that propofol is more typical, and we don't rule out that other anesthetics have similar reactions. So what Guo Peihua said is not necessarily nonsense. It may actually be his experience at the time, but for these things
, the parties concerned will involuntarily exaggerate it.”
"Do an MRI scan of the head, then see a neurologist for a look, and then a psychiatrist for evaluation. If nothing happens, I'll transfer him to the general surgery department." Yang Ping thought it would be better to be cautious.
"I'll make arrangements today." Dr. Ruan took the order.
---
Guo Peihua has been stable for so many days after the operation, and Yang Ping is very relieved.
After get off work, he wanted to go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables, and then cook a few side dishes in the evening.
It's not that Yang Ping doesn't know how to cook, and he can't do it wrong, it's just that Xiao Su's cooking skills are so good that he usually doesn't have the chance to take action. Now that Xiao Su is pregnant, he just has the opportunity to show off his skills.
Imperial City acted very quickly, and the notice was sent to Sanbo Hospital. When Dean Xia saw the emergency notice, he rushed to the General Surgery Department and notified Yang Ping personally.
As soon as Yang Ping closed the door of the director's office, Dean Xia rushed over in a hurry.
The notice made it very clear that he was to come to Beijing immediately to participate in case discussion and treatment plan formulation, but there was no information about the case and he was required to keep it confidential.
"Thank you for your hard work. Now go have something to eat and prepare to leave immediately. I will arrange for the hospital office to book a flight ticket for you and send you a car to take you there. When you get there, someone will pick you up." Dean Xia warned.
The matter must be urgent, otherwise it wouldn't be so urgent.
But Yang Ping couldn't let Xiao Su go. He was alone at home with no one to take care of him. He didn't know how many days he would go to the imperial capital this time.
So Yang Ping sent Xiao Su home, and then explained the matter to his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Professor Su knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and immediately arranged for Mrs. Su to come over and take care of Xiao Su, so that Yang could safely go to the Imperial Capital.
Yang Ping arranged all this, went to Yu Shuilian's bakery to have something to eat, packed his luggage, said goodbye to Xiao Su, and took the hospital car to the airport.
Because of the confidentiality, he did not tell the group of brothers in the imperial capital. If he told them, headed by Song Yun of Xiehe, the brothers would definitely take time out of their busy schedule to come out to pick up the plane.
Yang Ping would spend a few days every month going to Xiehe University to give lectures, make ward rounds, and perform surgeries.
Even in such a short period of time, I have established a good relationship with the young doctors of Xiehe Union Medical College. The quality of Xiehe Union Medical College doctors is indeed very high, and they are among the best in China. Among these young doctors, they are all eight-year doctorates, and they are all top academics.
, all were promoted to Xiehe University with college entrance examination scores that qualified for Qingbei.
Under the leadership of Yang Ping, these young people have grown rapidly one by one. Because Yang Ping is standing on the operating table, they can freely perform operations. For example, Song Yun has accumulated rich experience in scoliosis.
He is also very skilled in osteotomy.
Because of the huge shock caused by the 13 CNS papers, doctors at Union Medical College also discussed the matter a lot.
Song Yun and everyone had long hoped that Yang Ping could go there for a few days this month, take everyone to perform surgeries, and then guide everyone in writing papers.
But this time, no news about Yang Ping's trip to the imperial capital was leaked.
It was already midnight when we got off the plane.
The ones who came to pick us up were Director Zhou Min from the 301 Medical Office and a military driver. Director Zhou Min had been to Sanbo Hospital with the "officer corps" of 301 and knew Yang Ping, so it was more convenient for him to pick us up and he seemed to pay more attention to it.
.
After Yang Ping got off the plane, as soon as he got into the pick-up car, Director Zhou said, "Professor Yang, long time no see. You have become very famous recently."
"Fame is all fake, and everyone will forget it after a while." Yang Ping now speaks more directly.
Director Zhou smiled, it is rare for young people to be so down-to-earth.
"13 CNS articles, you have created the Guinness record of CNS. When we heard the news, we were very shocked. 13 articles, several articles concentrated in one publication, you said that our entire hospital could not do it in ten years."
If you don't match your numbers, how come you are so powerful in combat?" Director Zhou kept chatting about Yang Ping's thesis.
Director Zhou didn't mention the case, and Yang Ping didn't ask questions and kept silent.
"Several academicians in our hospital are full of praise for you. Many of them didn't know you before, but now they all know your name. Yang Ping - now you are well known." Director Zhou Min didn't care whether Yang Ping talked to him or not. He kept chatting anyway.
Go down and avoid the awkward atmosphere.
At this time, Director Zhou's phone rang.
"I got it, don't worry, it's already in the car. We are on our way to the hospital. It will take more than forty minutes."
"Okay, I will make arrangements so that he will not be hungry and let him have a good rest. I will take him to the hospital tomorrow morning."
"Don't worry, I'll remember it all. Just go to bed early."
Director Zhou had just hung up the phone from Political Commissar Qiao, and immediately received another call from Dean Liu, who then repeated what he had just said.
"Don't worry, don't worry, everything has been arranged, hot dishes and hot meals. Xiao Wu and I will follow him throughout the night. We will sleep next to him. Don't worry, you can go to bed early."
After hanging up the phone, Director Zhou smiled bitterly and said: "Commissar Qiao and Dean Liu, you see, you are calling to ask at this time, because you are not trusting me, for fear that I will not take good care of you."
Maybe it was too hard to catch the plane, Yang Ping leaned back in his chair and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Director Zhou didn't want to disturb him anymore, so he had no choice but to stop talking, silently turned up the air conditioner in the back row, and at the same time took out a blanket to cover Yang Ping.
Then he looked at the time and called again: "Ask Lao Fang to stop cooking for the time being and wait for my call. If you cook it too early, it will get cold and it won't taste good later."
The black car was racing through the night sky, and Director Zhou also leaned back on his chair and began to take a short rest.
