Both Qian Gang's team and Gao Qian's team represent the highest level of thoracic and cardiac surgery in Guangdong Province.
Both surgeries will be successful if nothing unexpected happens!
What the judges need to evaluate is who showed better ability during the entire operation.
Ability includes many things, such as equipment innovation and technological innovation.
Equipment innovation mainly includes new stents, new artificial blood vessels, new artificial valves, etc.
Technological innovations include access methods, arterial reconstruction methods, replacement, and stent implantation procedures.
After discussing with the team's attending doctor, Qian Gang quickly determined the patient's condition.
Qian Gang walked to the operating table and whispered a few words to the assistant.
Soon the assistant communicated with the circulating nurse, and the circulating nurse operated in the system.
The instrument nurse walked out of the operating room, and after a while, she had something in her hand.
Everyone quickly saw what that thing was.
"It's a bracket!"
"Who didn't know it was a stent? Judging from the shape, it's not a stent that has ever appeared on the market."
"Could it be the new stent that has just been successfully developed?"
"If it is really a new bracket and can solve the shortcomings of other brackets, the outcome of this game has been decided!"
"Nanxie has done a good job in scientific research in recent years, especially every team has maintained a good relationship with equipment manufacturers. Therefore, the annual invention patents far exceed those of Tianhua Hospital."
"Well, that means Nanxie Hospital is sure to win?"
“This is Nanxie Hospital’s trump card!”
"Will the game be one-sided?"
People watching the live broadcast are basically people in the industry. Even if they are not majoring in thoracic and cardiac surgery, they can still see who has the advantage from the details on the scene.
Although Qian Gang did not pay attention to external evaluations, he knew that as long as he came up with this new type of bracket, it would be enough to determine the direction of this competition.
Qian Gang was able to gain a foothold in Nanxie Hospital, but it would definitely not be possible without hard power.
In recent years, he has been researching device innovation for cardiovascular diseases, and two inventions have received special support from the government.
As for the "three-branch covered stent" in front of me, it is one of his important achievements in recent years, and it has appeared in public for the first time.
Of course, this is also because the "three-branch covered stent" has passed relevant approvals and no longer needs to be kept secret.
Although Pan Qing has hosted health columns for many years, she does not know much about such professional knowledge.
So, she asked Luo Ning for advice.
"The bracket used by the South Asian Association team has caused a lot of heated discussion. What is Professor Luo's comment on it?"
Luo Ning said with emotion, "Qian Gang is very talented in equipment design. He has already embarked on a unique path. After accumulation, he will go further in the future."
Pan Qing understood what Luo Ning meant, "The emergence of young doctors with characteristics like Dr. Qian in the Guangdong Province competition area is in line with the purpose of the competition."
Luo Ning nodded and said: "That's right! The team from Nanxie Hospital still grasped the essence of the competition and came up with something eye-catching. Tianhua is now at a disadvantage, and their opponents are very strong. If they don't find another way, just
It's very difficult to get a high score if you perform the surgery step by step."
Pan Qing's eyes were fixed on the operating room where Tianhua was located, "Tianhua will analyze from the positions of several doctors whether they are ready to let young medical students serve as first assistants!"
Luo Ning frowned, "It's too risky to use newcomers in such a large event."
The words just left my mouth.
Luo Ning was stunned.
"Teacher Luo, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Ning's eyes widened with disbelief, "Tianhua Hospital chose an unconventional surgical plan."
Pan Qing looked at Luo Ning inexplicably, "Did you make a mistake?"
Luo Ning picked up the patient's information, looked at it carefully, and shook his head, "It's not a mistake. It should be an innovation in the surgical technique!"
"New technique?"
"Tianhua and Nanxie both plan to perform endovascular surgery to treat their respective patients. However, endovascular surgery also involves many techniques. Although Nanxie uses new stents, there is nothing special elsewhere."
Pan Qing asked: "Is there any difference in Tianhua?"
Luo Ning's eyes flashed, "In vitro pre-opening technology!"
"Is this technique very difficult?"
"It's not just difficult?" Luo Ning shook his head and sighed, "It's equivalent to designing an exclusive treatment plan for the patient. You know, this is a competition, which is different from ordinary treatment. In normal times, in order to find the most suitable treatment plan for a patient
Several experts may sit together to discuss the treatment plan. This is a competition, and it is impossible to have so much time and energy to discuss an exclusive treatment plan."
"Isn't that a risk?"
Luo Ning nodded slightly, "That's why people look forward to it."
Speaking of this, Luo Ning's eyes overflowed with light.
Compared with designing a stent, extracorporeal pre-fenestration technology is not only a simple device innovation, but also requires on-the-spot performance based on the patient's condition to establish an exclusive stent solution.
Pan Qing noticed it.
The balance in Luo Ning's heart was originally tilted towards Nanxie Hospital.
However, at this moment, along with the changes on Tianhua's side, the direction was adjusted.
No matter what, this will be an exciting game.
Nanxie Hospital and Tianhua Hospital have come up with unexpected things.
The number of viewers in the comments section of The Lancet website is also continuing to grow.
Originally there were only more than a thousand people, but now it is about to exceed 10,000.
As a professional website, such a large amount of traffic exceeds expectations.
The reason why Zhao Yuan and Gao Qian decided to use in vitro pre-window technology was not to show off their skills.
Instead, something happened to their patient.
The anatomy of the patient's left vertebral artery is different from that of ordinary people.
Most of the vertebral arteries of ordinary people should originate from the left subclavian artery, but this patient's left vertebral artery opens directly into the aortic arch, located between the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery.
In the past, conventional surgical methods, stent implantation would cover branch blood vessels, obstruct blood flow, and cause cerebral infarction, limb ischemia, and even loss of function.
In vitro pre-window technology is the best choice at the moment!
However, this requires precise measurement and trimming of the stent before surgery to form a "window".
This "window" is to ensure that after the stent is implanted, the blood flow of the left subclavian artery and vertebral artery can flow smoothly to avoid blood supply obstruction.
"Our luck is really bad!" Gao Qian smiled helplessly.
"Patients with Marfan syndrome have vascular malformations, so no one can predict the internal conditions." Zhao Yuan was not discouraged, "In fact, for us, the more difficult it is, the better it is."
Gao Qian was slightly startled and looked at Zhao Yuan in confusion.
Zhao Yuandao: "We must believe in the professionalism of the judges. The more difficult the patient's surgery is, the higher the score we will get. Just like in a diving competition, only the more difficult movements will have a higher starting score."
Gao Qian suddenly realized and said with a smile: "After you said that, I feel a lot more relieved."
Zhao Yuan held an ordinary bracket and began to evaluate before pruning.
Luo Ning and the judges outside the venue had surprised expressions on their faces.
The most critical aspect of extracorporeal pre-fenestration technology is the “tailor-made” stent for the patient.
Logically speaking, shouldn't captain Gao Qian be responsible for this key part?
