Chapter seven hundred and sixty third hemp boiling powder
Lin Yuan could only hold these words in his stomach because he really didn't want to hurt the old man.
"Mr. Zhou, this is your family's business. I don't dare to speak nonsense. However, Mr. Zhou, forgive me for being arrogant. Traditional Chinese medicine has been developing for a long time since ancient times. There is no such thing as a golden rule. I think some of Brother Zhou's ideas may not be wrong.
, I hope you and Brother Zhou and his son can have a good communication, and it is best to give Brother Zhou a chance to explain."
Zhou Chuanting waved his hand and said: "Forget it, let's not mention this. Anyway, my old man can't live for a few days. Who can take care of the things behind him? Xiao Lin, I asked you to come here because I actually have something to talk to you about.
discuss."
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Senior, it doesn't matter. As long as the junior can do it, I will try my best."
"This is not asking you to do something, but I want to ask you something. Xiaolin, do you know Ma Fei San?"
Lin Yuan was stunned. Ma Fei Powder is so famous. Those who study Chinese medicine, even those with low education, will have heard of this name.
The general definition of Ma Fei San is associated with Hua Tuo, the miracle doctor during the Three Kingdoms period.
Why is it said to be a general definition? Because Ma Fei Powder is understood in the traditional Chinese medicine community as the anesthetic used in the earliest surgical operations in China.
There is such a record in the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty* Hua Tuo Biography": "If the disease occurs internally and cannot be reached by acupuncture, the patient should first take alcoholic beverages to make him feel numb, and he will be so drunk that he will not realize it.
, to cut away the accumulation.”
The accumulation here is what we call tumors today. This record is a very clear surgical process.
Lin Yuan clearly remembers that in the TV series based on Hua Tuo, Hua Tuo and his young son Feier went to the mountain to collect medicine, but Feier accidentally ate wild fruits and died.
Hua Tuo tried the fruit his son ate and found that although it was toxic, it had a very good anesthetic effect on the human body as long as it was controlled properly.
So, on this basis, Hua Tuo devoted himself to developing a powder that could cause deep anesthesia in people if taken with wine, without causing any major side effects.
This powder is a good medicine to relieve pain for people undergoing surgical operations.
This prescription was given by Hua Tuo because of his young child's illness, so it was named Ma Fei San by Hua Tuo.
Of course, these are all artistic processing of film and television works, and it is impossible to know what the real situation is.
Later, Emperor Wu of Wei Cao Cao had a migraine attack and asked Hua Tuo to be treated. Hua Tuo diagnosed that Cao Cao had a tumor in his brain and suggested that Cao Cao undergo a craniotomy.
This suddenly made Cao Cao suspect that Hua Tuo was plotting to kill him, so he put Hua Tuo in jail.
Hua Tuo knew he was going to die, so he gave the medical books he had learned in his life to the jailer. As a result, the jailer's wife burned the medical books and told the jailer that even if his medical skills were as good as Hua Tuo's, wouldn't the consequences be the same as his death?
It is said that the formula of Ma Fei Powder is in this medical book that was burned.
Based on research, later generations have speculated on two prescriptions.
One is composed of Datura flowers, Angelica dahurica, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum chuanxiong and other medicinal materials. The other one is composed of amphorae, jasmine root, Angelica sinensis, and calamus.
But these two prescriptions are not the original prescriptions of Huatuo Ma Fei Powder.
In addition, there is another voice in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, which believes that Ma Fei Powder was not created by Hua Tuo, but was a prescription inherited by Hua Tuo from the achievements of his predecessors.
The basis for this statement is that Bian Que, the miracle doctor who recorded the results of the war, once performed heart replacement surgery. These two patients were unconscious after drinking a poisonous wine, and Bian Que performed the surgery.
The effects of Ma Fei San and this poisonous wine are so similar that they may have been passed down from the same line. It is possible that Hua Tuo improved the formula of this poison wine and formed the prescription of Ma Fei San.
These are all historical cases, and no one can come up with a convincing explanation until now.
Lin Yuan was interested in why Zhou Chuanting was so interested in Ma Fei Powder.
"Mr. Zhou, this junior has something unclear. Although Ma Fei San is very famous, its symbolic meaning is far greater than its practical significance. Contemporary Western medicine anesthesia seems to be as effective as Ma Fei San. When seniors talk about this matter, is there any
What’s the deep meaning?”
"Xiao Lin, you probably haven't had detailed contact with patients who have undergone Western anesthesia surgery. For example, testicular cancer patients, after surgery, wait for the anesthesia to wear off. In their words, the pain is simply worse than life."
Death. There are many patients who ask me to solve this pain."
Lin Yuan nodded, he knew this kind of thing. In some surgeries, you won't feel anything during the operation. After the anesthesia wears off, you will feel severe pain.
After all, anesthetics cannot change the stress response of the body damaged by surgery. Once the drug wears off, the pain of the stress response will come immediately.
Zhou Chuanting said: "I have paid attention to this aspect after being exposed to the pain of too many surgical patients. Xiaolin, you are right. The anesthesia technology of Western medicine is indeed very systematic, but it must be done after surgery."
For pain relief, Western medicine does too much harm to the patient's body."
Lin Yuan agrees with this.
After the operation, the patient's body was already extremely weak, and coupled with the pain caused by synthetic western medicine, the damage to the human body was extremely great.
"So what Mr. Zhou means is that he wants to revive the ancient recipe of Ma Fei San and use it to anesthetize patients?"
Zhou Chuanting sighed: "That's what I mean. The efficacy of Ma Fei Powder is recorded in historical books, but it is also unclear in Chinese medicine books. No one knows what kind of effect Ma Fei Powder has, but we always have to think about what the patient is thinking.
, are you making some progress in this area?"
Lin Yuan thought for a while and said: "Mr. Zhou, Ma Fei Powder may not be better than Western anesthetics, but we know that Chinese patent medicines are far less harmful to the human body than Western medicine synthetic drugs. If Ma Fei Powder can be used
Clinically speaking, I dare not say anything else, but the harm to the patient's body should be reduced to the minimum level."
"Yes, sometimes it really makes us ashamed. It is said that when the United States was studying acupuncture, they discovered the analgesic effect of acupuncture and proposed whether acupuncture can be used to replace anesthetics for surgery. Although it is still under research, this kind of thinking
, but it makes us Chinese medicine practitioners feel ashamed.”
Lin Yuan was also sighing. In fact, not only traditional Chinese medicine, but also many traditional things were almost forgotten in China, but foreigners dug them out from nowhere. After some research and development, the almost disappeared traditional classics were able to bloom.
light.
Especially South Korea and Japan. These two countries have absorbed so much precious wealth from the Chinese tradition, not only in terms of material benefits, but also in terms of spiritual enlightenment. As Chinese people, we really feel ashamed of our ancestors.
.
Lin Yuan's heart suddenly moved: "Mr. Zhou, what you mean is that you want to restore Ma Fei Powder, and you want to find a way to relieve the patient's pain and at the same time reduce the patient's physical harm. Mr. Zhou, that's what I think.
, the more damaged and fatigued the human body is, the stronger the pain will be. On the basis of restoring ancient prescriptions, and adding Yang and Zheng methods, can we further increase the patient's ability to resist pain? "
Zhou Chuanting's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands and said: "That's right, the pain itself is the patient's stress response. The more resistant the body is, the greater its tolerance for pain will be. Correspondingly, the pain will be reduced. This
That’s why strong people are more resistant to beatings than weak people.”
Having said this, Zhou Chuanting stood up and paced back and forth, unable to conceal his excitement: "I have been studying the prescription of Ma Fei Powder for more than ten years. One of the biggest confusions is what practical significance does this thing have in replacing anesthetics?
Now, I figured it out."
Zhou Chuanting's persistence in Ma Fei Powder really shocked Lin Yuan.
In order to research the original formula of Ma Fei Powder, Zhou Chuanting went to Bozhou, Hua Tuo's hometown, and radiated outward little by little. Zhou Chuanting followed Hua Tuo's footsteps and found that he could study different medicinal materials.
Ma Fei Powder should have medicinal materials.
For this reason, Zhou Chuanting tried no less than hundreds of formulas. Once, he failed to grasp the dosage correctly and fell into a coma for three days.
Today, the Mafei powder developed by Zhou Chuanting can be compared with the original ancient prescription, but he feels that it has no practical significance.
Because the pain that patients experience after surgery cannot be eliminated.
After listening to Lin Yuan's words, Zhou Chuanting suddenly understood that the function of Mafei Powder is similar to that of an anesthetic, but the effects of the two are completely different.
Mafei San will not cause serious side effects on the human body. In other words, the pain when you wake up after surgery is inevitable. However, in terms of postoperative medication, Mafei San is many times more powerful than anesthetics.
Zhou Chuanting was extremely excited. After sitting down, he discussed with Lin Yuan the recovery medication after surgery.
Although Lin Yuan didn't want to disturb the old man's mood, he still said: "Mr. Zhou, this matter can be used as academic research, but if it can be truly realized, I'm afraid it won't be feasible within ten years. Let's discuss and demonstrate this matter slowly.
, as an academic question for everyone’s reference.”
Zhou Chuanting's smile suddenly froze. He could understand what Lin Yuan said.
Clinical surgery is a top priority in contemporary medicine. It is closely related to human life. All procedures and medications are determined after long-term clinical trials.
Let’s not talk about the long-standing prejudice between Chinese and Western medicine. Even if the competent authorities want to use drugs like Mafei San for clinical use, they must first go through academic discussions, submit for approval, and then conduct clinical observation.
No matter how good your idea is or how perfect your plan is, this process is essential. In this regard, there is no problem with strict supervision because it involves human lives.
When it comes to human life, whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, the principle is that human life is as big as the sky.
