Chapter 642 This method is called caesarean section!
After Hua Tuo dealt with some things in the hospital, he came to Liu Cheng.
"Uncle Emperor, this woman's childbirth has been a big problem since ancient times. For women, it is like a hell.
Over the years, although some people have summed up a lot of experience and thought of many methods, there are also specialized midwives like Wenpo.
But overall, there is still no breakthrough progress.
Once you encounter dystocia, hemorrhagic collapse, etc., you can easily die...
Every year, there are not a few people who die thinking of giving birth to children...
I have thought about this matter for a long time, but there is nothing I can do about it. I don’t know what you think about this, uncle, or what you can do about it..."
When Hua Tuo came to Liu Cheng, he directly talked about this matter with Liu Cheng without too much politeness.
Over the past few days, he has also figured out the emperor's uncle's temper.
Uncle Huang doesn't like too many meanderings. When something happens, just talk about it directly. This is the best way.
Hua Tuo himself also liked this style of doing things, which made people feel comfortable and happy.
After Liu Cheng heard Hua Tuo's words, he nodded secretly.
I feel that Hua Tuo is worthy of being a famous doctor and a kind-hearted doctor.
Although I once had doubts about the medical skills I learned and felt that practicing medicine could not save the Han people, I still walked firmly on the road of treating diseases and saving people.
Constantly thinking about improving medical skills and treating as many illnesses and saving lives as possible.
Liu Cheng already had a solution to the problem Hua Tuo mentioned.
This method was a common method in later generations.
That is a caesarean section.
The way to solve the production problem and minimize the risks caused by difficult labor is to have a caesarean section.
It's just that caesarean section is associated with a series of related drugs and medical equipment.
Even in later generations, when Liu Cheng had not traveled through time and came to the Han Dynasty, he had heard that there were people near their place who gave birth and went to a small hospital for a caesarean section. As a result, they had heavy bleeding that could not be stopped, and then died.
information.
After thinking about it in his mind for a while, Liu Cheng finally felt like speaking it out.
Because this is a final solution, after knowing such a solution, you can work hard in this direction.
You can slowly overcome the difficulties.
If it can really be conquered and implemented, it will be excellent news for many people in the Han Dynasty.
Moreover, the person in front of him was Hua Tuo, a being who was famous for his surgical operations throughout history.
With someone like him here, and someone like me who knows more or less about the medical treatment of later generations, maybe we can really solve this matter.
It cannot be said that it can be solved 100%. If every mother who is about to die due to dystocia is saved through caesarean section, the success rate can be at least 70% to 80%, which is still possible...
Despite this success rate, in future generations, there is a high probability that the patient will be beaten to death by his family members.
But at this time, it is really good...
He sat here meditating and calculating.
Hua Tuo, on the other hand, sat aside, looked at Liu Cheng, and waited quietly. He seemed a little uneasy, worried that the emperor's uncle would not be able to solve this problem.
If even the emperor's uncle is troubled by this problem and has no novel solutions, then it will really be extremely troublesome.
If you want to make breakthrough progress in this matter, I'm afraid it will be very difficult.
While he was waiting anxiously, Liu Cheng raised his head.
Seeing this, Hua Tuo couldn't help but feel happy. He quickly looked at Liu Cheng, highly concentrated, looking forward to Liu Cheng's next words.
Liu Cheng said: "I do have some feasible solutions for this matter."
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, Hua Tuo was instantly delighted.
Immediately, he looked at Liu Cheng with burning eyes, waiting for Liu Cheng's next words.
“However, this approach is very risky, at least for now.
There are a lot of things to break through.”
Liu Cheng looked at Hua Tuo and said.
"I call this method a caesarean section."
"Cesarean section?"
When Hua Tuo heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Then he looked at Liu Cheng and said, "Uncle Huang said, cut open the stomach of a person who has difficulty giving birth and then take out the baby inside?"
The literal meaning of caesarean section is not difficult to understand.
Liu Cheng nodded: "That's true."
If another doctor was sitting in front of Liu Cheng at this time, I am afraid that he would have been shocked by what Liu Cheng said.
But the person sitting in front of him was Hua Tuo, so everything was easier to explain.
But even so, Hua Tuo seemed a little shaken in his heart.
If you can't give birth, just cut open the belly, take out the baby from another place, and find another way. This is indeed a good way.
Apart from this method, it is basically impossible to solve the problem of difficult labor.
Because from the original place, people have already thought of all the ways they can think of, and it is difficult to make a big breakthrough.
If you really want to make a big breakthrough, you can only do what the emperor's uncle said and have a caesarean section to remove the child.
"Uncle Emperor, isn't this matter very difficult?
I'm just afraid that if I don't get it right, people will die..."
Hua Tuo looked at Liu Cheng and asked.
Liu Cheng nodded when he heard this and said: "That's true, but this is when the technology is immature at the beginning. If the technology is mature and all aspects are passed, then later on, one thousand or even thousands of them may not be able to do it."
One appears.
But in order to reach this level, there are many things that need to be overcome, involving all aspects..."
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, Hua Tuo was immediately shocked, and then his face was full of surprise.
"Uncle Emperor, is this really the case?!
If it can really reach this level, then this is an extremely mature treatment method!"
Liu Cheng nodded and said: "It is indeed possible to reach this level, but it is extremely difficult and extremely difficult, involving all aspects..."
Hua Tuo still looked extremely happy. No matter how many difficulties there were, he was not afraid of them. What he was afraid of was that this method would not have such a big effect.
Liu Cheng nodded and said, "Of course.
But it’s very difficult…”
Liu Cheng said this and wanted to tell Hua Tuo the specific method.
"Uncle Emperor, please wait a moment. I will call Dr. Ye over. I believe she is also particularly interested in this matter!"
Hua Tuo said this to Liu Cheng, looking excited.
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to run to the field hospital.
Liu Cheng stopped it with a smile, but called a member of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and asked him to go to the field hospital to ask for Dr. Ye.
A man riding a tiger and leopard can do this much faster than Hua Tuo.
While Liu Cheng and Hua Tuo were waiting, it didn't take long for Dr. Ye to follow the man riding the tiger and leopard.
His face looked a little red.
On the one hand, it was because I was tired from traveling so fast, and on the other hand, I learned some news from the tiger and leopard rider.
I knew that I was called here because the emperor's uncle had some constructive opinions on the matter of difficult childbirth.
"I've met the emperor's uncle."
She saluted Liu Cheng respectfully.
Liu Cheng smiled and waved to her, indicating that she didn't need to be so polite.
He invited her to sit down together and got down to business without saying anything else.
First, let’s talk to Dr. Ye about what a caesarean section is.
After hearing Liu Cheng talk about having a caesarean section, she was shocked, but soon became pleasantly surprised.
Because, although this thing is unbelievable and very different from what I have seen and heard in the past, it is indeed a very good idea.
After telling her about the caesarean section, Liu Cheng began to talk about what he knew and what she needed to pay attention to.
“The most important thing about this is to make it as sterile as possible.
The more sterile it is, the less likely it is to cause infection and the higher the survival rate.
Not only caesarean section, but all other surgeries must be sterile...
Sterility, the most important thing is to be clean. Just being clean to the naked eye is not enough. It needs to be disinfected, and it must be done in every aspect..."
Liu Cheng emphasized with the two here.
“The second thing is to stop the bleeding.
There is a certain amount of blood in the human body. When the amount of blood decreases to a small amount, there is not much of a problem. When it is too much, it will cause a series of serious problems. If the amount is too much, it will lead to death.
In a caesarean section, the person's belly and the uterus inside are cut open.
There will inevitably be bleeding, so stopping the bleeding is the top priority.
Strong and effective hemostatic drugs are needed.
Without powerful and effective hemostatic drugs, it would be too dangerous to perform such an operation...
Just like saving money, this thing is about increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.
In addition to stopping bleeding, another method is blood transfusion.
The blood in a person's body is limited.
Loss of too much blood will result in death.
Sometimes, when there is heavy bleeding, it is very difficult to stop the bleeding in time.
Often, before the bleeding is stopped, the blood in the human body is already flowing out.
will die.
Then at this time, blood needs to be transfused into the human body in time..."
Liu Cheng's words made Hua Tuo and Doctor Ye couldn't help but shine.
Especially Hua Tuo, he just felt a sense of enlightenment.
Blood transfusion!
Blood transfusion!
You can actually get a blood transfusion!
Yes, people do not say that they will die if they lose a certain amount of blood.
Only part of the blood lost can be replenished.
Under such circumstances, if you encounter some emergencies, you can indeed give people blood transfusions!
This...this is so smart!
Liu Cheng caught the reactions of Hua Tuo and Dr. Ye in his eyes, paused for a moment, and then said: "However, blood transfusion is also very particular. It does not mean that anyone's blood can be transfused, but
It needs to be distinguished.
Human blood looks red and there is no difference, but in fact it is not.
Generally speaking, human blood can be divided into four types, which can be called type A, type B, type A-B, and type C.
Among them, type C blood can be transfused to people with all types of blood.
But only blood transfusions of the same type can be accepted.
Type A blood can only be transfused to people with type A and type C blood.
People with blood type A, B, and type B can also only give blood transfusions to people of their own blood type and people with blood type C, and receive blood transfusions from each other.
This thing needs to be distinguished clearly.
There must be no confusion.
Once confused, blood transfusion will not only fail to save people, but will also harm them..."
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, Hua Tuo and Dr. Ye both nodded quickly to express their acceptance.
If the emperor's uncle hadn't said it, they really wouldn't have known that there was such a big difference between the blood that looked exactly the same.
If you don't understand these things, even if you know that blood transfusion can save people, if you don't do it right, it will cause harm to others!
"Uncle Emperor, this... this blood looks exactly the same. How can we tell what model they are?"
After a while, Hua Tuo looked at Liu Cheng asking this question, looking confused.
Although we know that blood is divided into four types, we don’t know how to divide them.
There is nothing I can do, it feels very difficult.
Doctor Ye next to him also raised his head and looked at Liu Cheng.
She had no clue about this and could only wait for Uncle Liu Huang to come up with a solution.
After all, what they heard from Uncle Liu Huang was a brand new thing that they had never been exposed to before.
Very novel.
Liu Cheng carefully recalled the relevant knowledge he knew, and said to them: "It can be measured using serum.
Serum is the top layer of yellowish-brown water after the blood has settled.
This thing needs to be in a closed environment to be separated...
Determinations can then be carried out using serum and blood.
Blood that reacts with type A serum is type B blood.
What reacts with type B serum is type A blood.
The one that reacts with both serum type A and serum type B is blood type A and B.
The one that does not react with either serum is type C blood...
Of course, most of the blood types are only these four, and they are extremely rare blood types, which are rarely encountered...
After understanding these blood types, the next step is blood transfusion.
Blood transfusion requires tools.
The most direct blood transfusion is to get a tube with a double needle, and insert the needles into the blood vessels of two people who need blood transfusion.
In this case, the blood of a person with normal blood volume will flow into the body of a person with ischemia under the influence of pressure..."
Liu Cheng's words shocked Hua Tuo and Dr. Ye.
Many places felt very shocked and benefited greatly.
But there are many places that I feel I can’t understand.
He was here at the moment, understanding and asking questions at the same time, and Liu Cheng also informed them in as much detail as possible based on some of the knowledge he knew.
Under this situation, time passed quickly, and before you knew it, it was already dark...
"Uncle Emperor, I got to see him today. After listening to what he said, it was like opening up a new world... His medical skills are truly miraculous."
Hua Tuo looked at Liu Cheng and said with emotion, sincerely admiring him.
Hearing this, Liu Cheng smiled and said: "I don't know any medical skills, I just know some superficial knowledge..."
You don't know medical skills?
The boss is so humble!
After Liu Cheng thought for a while, he looked at Hua Tuo and said: "Yuanhua, if you want to improve your medical skills, I have a way here, but... this may have a lot to do with you and the world's understanding.
