Valve replacement surgery, this kind of surgery to repair "doors and windows" in the heart, has been around since the 1960s.
After so many years of development, it can be considered very mature.
But after all, it is an operation that must be performed to extend life.
So the risk is still there.
According to big data statistics, the surgical mortality rate is about 5%.
This is still the statistics for single valve replacement.
As for the replacement of four valves, there is no data.
Because there are too few cases of this kind of surgery in the country.
Without enough cases, statistics are meaningless.
Take Qin Zhong as an example, there has never been a similar total valve replacement surgery in history.
The reason why so few are done is not only because of the difficulty, but also because there are not many patients who need all four valves replaced.
Heart transplant surgery can be said to be extremely difficult.
However, hundreds of this kind of surgeries are performed across the country a year.
However, in history, there have never been hundreds of valve replacement surgeries.
High difficulty and unfamiliarity are the two biggest problems faced by cardiac surgeons in this surgery.
These problems are nothing to Zhou Sheng.
In reality, few patients require this kind of surgery.
But in the dungeon, as long as Zhou Yisheng is not proficient in doing it, the dungeon will arrange a large number of such surgeries for him to make him familiar with it.
It's difficult, it's okay.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. If you do more and have the guidance of "veteran experts" around you, Zhou Yisheng's level will rise like mushrooms after a spring rain.
Copy of the eleventh surgery, multiple valve replacement.
In order to replace these four broken "doors and windows".
The surgery lasted more than 6 hours on Monday.
I was educated by "veteran experts" in the middle, and I tried it over N times, and finally completed it.
The final result, of course, was that it didn’t get likes.
But Zhou Sheng was not depressed at all.
Zhou Shengsheng knew that if he wanted to get thousands of likes for a perfect surgery, it would be impossible without performing thousands of surgeries in a copy of the highly difficult cardiothoracic surgeries.
Anyway, you don’t know about fatigue and hunger in the dungeon. Just one sentence and you’re done.
One surgery followed another on Monday.
It wasn't until the 101st surgery that he got his first like.
With this like, Zhou Yisheng began to gradually enter a better state.
When Zhou Yisheng completed the 2100th operation in the dungeon, a heart transplant operation, it was a perfect success.
Zhou Yisheng finally completed an advanced copy of Cardiothoracic Surgery.
At this moment, a full 12 hours have passed in reality.
Lying in bed on Monday, I went straight from early morning to evening.
The retreat training is completed.
Upgrade successfully!
Although I was a little tired on Monday, I felt mentally refreshed.
In one day, Zhou Sheng has reached the pinnacle of cardiothoracic surgery, including heart transplantation and multi-valve replacement. Zhou Sheng is full of confidence in these surgeries.
This feeling is simply exhilarating.
But after a brief period of excitement, Zhousheng's belly issued a warning.
Zhou Sheng, who had already cleared the dungeon many times and was full of experience, immediately took out the prepared food and had a hearty meal.
Eat and drink enough, take a short nap, and refresh yourself.
On Monday, he faced the darkness and drove to the Central Hospital to work the night shift.
Arrive at the emergency center.
Change your clothes and hand over your shift.
The first thing I did was go to the ICU to see how the young patient who had undergone two thoracotomies was doing.
After arriving, I found that Su Quan and Cao Xin were both there.
Zhou Sheng briefly asked the two of them.
I learned that the patient was in better condition today, and the ECG monitoring showed everything was normal.
Feel a little relieved on Monday.
As usual, system scan should also be enabled.
Give the patient a comprehensive examination and evaluation on Monday.
The results also show that everything is normal now.
However, Zhou Yisheng still did not dare to be careless.
He told Su Quan and Cao Xin to pay more attention to the patient's condition. The next week would be a critical period for the patient. If anything happens, they must notify themselves in time.
Zhou Sheng's worries are not unreasonable.
Treatment after surgery is sometimes more important than the surgery itself. For example, rejection treatment after organ transplantation is often more dangerous than surgery.
Of course, Su Quan and Cao Xin obeyed Zhou Sheng's doctor's orders.
The two knew that they had a heavy responsibility, and with serious expressions on their faces, they unanimously replied: "Understood!"
The post-operative follow-up visit for this heart patient is over.
Zhou Sheng returned to the clinic and started today's night shift emergency work.
The night shift is generally quite relaxing.
Until it was almost dawn, a small episode happened.
Cao Xin hurried into Zhou Sheng's clinic.
As soon as Zhou Sheng saw Cao Xin's nervous expression, he knew something had happened again.
As soon as Cao Xin saw Zhou Sheng, he immediately said: "Team Leader Zhou, there is a patient with chest trauma in the emergency room. Dr. Bai and Dr. Su are handling it, but the patient's condition does not seem to be particularly good."
Zhou Sheng stood up and said, "Let's go and have a look."
Arrive at the emergency room.
Bai Mingming and Su Quan have already performed closed chest drainage on the patient.
This operation is a puncture operation to deal with the pressure on the lung tissue caused by air or fluid accumulation in the chest.
To put it bluntly, it is almost exactly the same as a thoracentesis examination. However, this is not for examination, but for treatment.
This puncture is much simpler than pericardiocentesis and arterial puncture.
A very minor surgery, local anesthesia with lidocaine and thoracentesis.
Place one end of the drainage tube into the chest cavity, and connect the other end to a water-sealed bottle lower than the drainage tube to expel gas or collect fluid in the chest cavity so that the lung tissue can reopen and resume function.
This surgery is a commonly used minor surgery to treat pneumothorax and pleural effusion caused by chest trauma.
Cao Xin will be a little unfamiliar with this kind of surgery.
It is not difficult at all for Bai Mingming and Su Quan to operate.
So at the beginning.
Bai Mingming and Su Quan didn't look for Zhou Sheng either.
In addition to closed chest drainage.
Pleural effusion caused by chest trauma compresses the lung tissue and makes the patient unable to breathe.
To be on the safe side, Bai Mingming and Su Quan performed a tracheotomy on the patient.
Tracheotomy is classified according to the surgical location and was originally a surgical subject of the Department of Otology.
However, emergency surgery is widely used, so it can be considered an emergency surgery.
Again, this is a relatively simple operation.
As long as you have been on the operating table and been the chief surgeon, there is no one who can't do it.
Bai Mingming and Su Quan naturally have no problem.
The tracheotomy was performed, intubation was performed, and the injured was placed on an auxiliary ventilator.
After this operation.
Originally, the two of them thought that the patient's biggest problem with chest trauma was that his lungs were compressed by pleural effusion, so they performed thoracentesis and intubation for respiration.
The patient's condition should improve immediately.
But the actual situation is that the patient still has chest tightness and difficulty breathing.
I have been treated symptomatically, why is it still like this?
