"Swordsman Te Zhao, welcome to Huos, I am Collison. This is Count Mentor." Collison took the initiative to step forward and stretched out his big furry hand.
Zhao Yuan shook hands with Collison, and then shook hands with Earl Mentor.
The two found that Zhao Yuan looked thin, but his hands were big and powerful.
Collison and Zhao Yuan took the initiative to introduce the situation, "First of all, I'm sorry to have you rush to us despite your busy schedule. The main reason is that the patient's condition is very bad and he can no longer travel long distances. Secondly, we have invited some top international hospitals.
The team has conducted consultation and analysis, including Mayo Clinic, Cleveland, Hopkins, Wellington, Lille Medical and Tokyo Hospital."
A smile appeared on Zhao Yuan's lips, and he thought to himself, I am grateful that hospital teams from all over the world are here.
"Is there a team from China?"
"Yes, aren't you a Chinese doctor?"
Collison smiled.
Zhao Yuan understood what Collison meant. In fact, they looked down on China's medical care.
Today, the country with the strongest medical capabilities is undoubtedly the beautiful country, followed by the big goose country, Germany and the island country.
Although China's medical strength has been greatly improved, as a European country, it still cannot compare with China's medical level. Even India is ranked ahead of China.
Mainly, China has been demonized too seriously in the Western world.
First, the propaganda of China was still in the 1970s and 1980s. Not only was China poor and backward, but it was also very unsafe. When walking on the road, you might be pulled directly to a remote place to have your back.
Second, although China’s GDP ranks among the top three, its per capita income is very low and it is still a developing country.
Citizens of developed countries naturally have a sense of superiority. It's like if a big boss in the country is seriously ill and invites doctors from Chao or Lan to treat him, would you like him?
For Collison, there is no need to hire ordinary doctors from China. No matter how good they are, can they compare to the teams at Mayo or Cleveland?
The main reason why Zhao Yuan was invited was because he was the first person to treat this disease.
Except for him, no other team had ever come into contact with living patients with pulmonary artery dissection.
The key point is that both surgeries performed by Zhao Yuan were successful, and they were performed recently.
Collison took Zhao Yuan to see the patient first.
Before entering the patient, disinfect the patient first and then put on protective clothing.
Zhao Yuan frowned, knowing that this was not to protect himself, but to protect the patient. He was a little unhappy in his heart, and he didn't dare to take himself for anything, but he was content with what he had come. Who allows others to have money and power?
Zhao Yuan followed Collison into the ward. The old lady had her eyes closed and was resting.
Zhao Yuan and Collison whispered, "It's best to sleep on the left side."
Sleeping on the left side can prevent the heart from being compressed, reduce the burden on the heart, and help gas exchange in the body.
Collison was slightly startled. As a cardiothoracic surgeon, of course he knew these basic common sense.
But he told the old lady once, she felt uncomfortable, and then gave up.
However, from here, it can be seen that the young Chinese doctor in front of him still pays great attention to details.
Four or five doctors were on one side responsible for monitoring vital signs, and a group of nurses were on standby.
Seeing Collison's arrival, these doctors immediately became busy.
Many people think that Chinese people are very smooth and like to fish. In fact, that is a prejudice. Only when you go abroad do you realize that fishing can be found everywhere.
Even if Chinese people are trying to catch fish, they will find ways to make it invisible to others.
But foreigners are different. They are very clumsy at fishing, as if they are afraid that others will not notice.
Several doctors are discussing the data on the instruments, chanting various professional terms and discussing various possibilities. In fact, if you listen carefully, you will find that it is all nonsense.
To be honest, with the old lady's current situation, you don't need any instruments, you just need to check the individual to know what's going on.
Zhao Yuan asked the nurse for a stethoscope, approached the old lady, and said softly, "I'll do a physical examination with you."
The old lady just closed her eyes and slowly opened her eyes when she heard Zhao Yuan's voice.
Although the old lady's face is full of wrinkles, her skin is obviously more than ten years younger than her age, and her eyes are clear. It can be seen that she has lived a good life and has not suffered much.
In many doctor novels, the protagonist goes abroad to treat some young princess or queen, and then goes back and forth, and the relationship develops further.
However, although Zhao Yuan also met a princess, it was a pity that she was an old princess in her seventies. Although she had been widowed for many years, the possibility of a further relationship was slim...
The old lady blinked at Zhao Yuan to express her approval.
Zhao Yuan began to conduct a detailed examination on the old lady.
The old lady discovered that the doctor in front of her was doing examinations differently from others.
Other doctors are a bit rude, but Zhao Yuan's movements are very gentle, just like a massage, which not only does not make people feel rejected, but also makes people feel very comfortable.
The lips are not cyanotic, the jugular veins on both sides are full, the breath sounds in both lungs are slightly thick, and the lower limbs are edema...
Zhao Yuan silently recorded this information in his mind.
It can only be said that the old lady was very lucky. It was a typical symptom of pulmonary artery dissection. If it were an ordinary person, it might not be diagnosed at all and she would suddenly become ill and die.
The old lady has a professional medical team, and their examination methods are very comprehensive, so they can detect hidden dangers in time and prevent the condition from getting worse through various means.
Compared with aortic dissection, pulmonary artery dissection does not have multiple exits and inlets like aortic dissection. Once formed, it is more likely to rupture and break into the pericardium and mediastinum, causing cardiac tamponade.
Pulmonary artery dissection is a rare macrovascular disease, with only 63 cases reported in the literature in the past two decades.
According to literature statistics, the natural course of the disease generally does not exceed three days from onset to pulmonary artery dissection, tear, and death from cardiac tamponade. The old lady in front of me had already exceeded five days.
It can only be said that although the power of money cannot change the situation, it can at least delay time and give the patient more chances to survive.
After Zhao Yuan finished the examination, he gave Collison a look.
Collison understood what Zhao Yuan meant.
The old lady asked softly, "Is my condition particularly serious? Will I die?"
Zhao Yuan smiled lightly and said, "Your condition is a bit serious, but with active treatment, there is a high probability that you will recover."
There was a complex look in the old lady's eyes, "I'm actually mentally prepared. But I'm afraid of pain. I'm afraid of pain. It's scary to think about making a big hole in the chest and taking out the heart."
Zhao Yuan understood the old lady's mood.
For a person who has never suffered any sin in his life, he still has to suffer from illness at such an old age. This kind of psychological worry and fear far outweighs everything else.
Zhao Yuan said gently, "You don't need to worry too much, keep a good attitude, and leave other problems to us."
The old lady's biggest problem now is not physical, but mental.
I have a world-wide problem, but my condition has not worsened. My mentality is not good, and I am worried every day. It has a huge impact on my heart. To put it in an exaggerated way, it scares me to death.
