Chapter 171: Strong Medicine for Serious Illness
Li Quan quickened his pace and rushed to the obstetrics operating room.
As soon as I got there, I found several family members waiting outside the operating room, all with worried looks on their faces.
"Doctor, when will the miracle doctor you invited arrive?"
The family member pulled him aside and asked.
"I'm sorry, I just got here too and I don't know what's going on inside. Please make way." Li Quan pushed aside the family members with an expressionless face and rang the doorbell outside the operating room.
The door opened quickly.
"Doctor Li, you're finally here, hurry in and help with the rescue!"
It was Doctor Ren who opened the door.
She is the attending physician of obstetrics and one of Professor Liu's favorite students. Naturally, she is very capable.
When Dr. Ren saw Li Quan appear, he felt like he had seen a savior.
"Ah... Doctor, doctor, could it be that the miracle doctor you invited is this young doctor?"
The family members came to their senses, their faces changed drastically, and they asked more questions outside.
"Family members, please wait patiently outside. Both the mother and the child are in great danger now, so please don't make things more serious." Doctor Ren is much more authoritative than Doctor Li Quan.
With a cold face, he directly drove the family members away.
The lives of the mother and child are still in the hands of the doctor. The family members are honest and no one dares to say anything.
Li Quan entered the operating room, changed into disposable sterile surgical gown according to the procedure, and then entered the inner room after the disinfection procedure.
On the cold operating table under the shadowless lamp, lay a very young pregnant woman.
Logically speaking, such a young woman should rarely experience problems such as difficult labor.
"Xiao Li, please come quickly and take a look. This woman has marginal placenta previa. She is currently 37 and a half weeks pregnant and has signs of heavy bleeding. She is also unable to give birth and the fetus is in a transverse position. If you can perform a uterine pushing operation to help the fetus get into the correct position and then assist in the birth, and if the birth goes smoothly, there is no need to perform a cesarean section on her."
Professor Liu quickly explained the patient's condition to Li Quan.
"Doctor Li, this is the color ultrasound of the patient." After Professor Sun Limin added Li Quan, he has not yet taken the initiative to chat with Li Quan.
I don't know if he's busy or what.
Li Quan didn't dare to disturb her.
At this moment, she handed the color ultrasound report to Li Quan for review.
"Let me try it first! Marginal placenta previa should be able to be treated with a cesarean section. Why not?" Li Quan asked curiously.
"The woman is very young, only 19 years old. Her family is worried that the scar left by the cesarean section will be detrimental to her future marriage..." Doctor Ren only said this and did not continue.
Li Quan already understood.
This is another ignorant and naive victim girl who became pregnant after being deceived by a scumbag.
In fact, in situations like this, one should decisively cut losses and terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible.
Who will raise the child now? When she gets married in the future, she will have to bring the child with her. Even if someone wants her, it will be difficult for her to find a good man.
Li Quan shook his head and sighed.
A nurse had already put disposable medical gloves on him.
Li Quan began to touch the mother's belly to feel the condition of the fetus in her womb.
Tuigong technique may seem to be just a simple massage, but it actually requires both technique and experience.
The fetus is extremely fragile and is separated from the belly and the uterine wall, so accidental injury may occur if you are not careful.
"The fetus is weak. It's either due to lack of oxygen or because it was born too early and has not yet fully developed." After feeling around for a while, Li Quan told the professors his diagnosis results with a serious face.
“Do your best!”
Professor Liu gave the order.
Li Quan nodded and began to perform the uterine pushing technique to correct the fetal position.
He was very careful during this process.
As time passed, the mother's bleeding began to worsen.
Everyone's breathing became much lighter, and their expressions were solemn and full of worry.
Even become anxious.
"Monitor the fetal heart rate!"
Professor Liu did not expect that it would take Li Quan so long to perform the palace pushing technique this time.
The combination of severe bleeding in the mother and a weak fetus can be life-threatening.
"The fetal heart rate is still normal."
After Professor Sun Limin personally measured the fetal heart rate, he said to Professor Liu.
"Continue to push the uterus to assist in the birth!"
Professor Liu felt a little relieved. If the fetal heart rate deteriorated, there would be no more delay and a cesarean section would be necessary to get the baby out immediately.
So much time has passed, and Li Quan sometimes massages very hard, but the fetus is not harmed.
This is enough to show that Li Quan's palace manipulation skills are very advanced.
"Okay, the fetal position is correct! We can start delivery." Li Quan breathed a sigh of relief, his forehead already covered with sweat.
The nurse wiped him with a tissue.
This is a treatment only the chief surgeon and the second assistant can enjoy.
Li Quan, the innocent young boy, was still a little uncomfortable with being served so gently by the nurse.
However, he did not dodge, but tried to remain calm.
"Do your best to assist in the birth! If there is anything we can do or the mother needs cooperation, just give us instructions. You will be in charge of this delivery operation." Professor Liu trusts Li Quan very much.
Unlike Dr. Fu from the general surgery department, who was afraid that Li Quan would cause trouble for him.
They didn’t even dare to give Li Quan a chance to talk to the patient.
"I will do my best!"
Li Quan felt his teacher's deep trust in him and his mission as a doctor, which made him decide to give it his all.
The woman's name is Zhao Meili.
She has a sweet and pretty appearance, but unfortunately she is too innocent and was cheated by a scumbag.
"Ms. Zhao, I will push your belly from top to bottom. You must cooperate and push hard to give birth. Also, you have already experienced heavy bleeding, so the labor process must be accelerated."
Li Quan said to the woman in labor.
"good!"
Zhao Meili nodded weakly, with an oxygen tube inserted in her nose.
“Use more strength…”
Li Quan said to the woman in labor while pushing the fetus downwards.
The mother was very cooperative, but unfortunately she was already very weak due to her excessive physical exertion, and continued bleeding made her even weaker.
Under normal circumstances, it doesn’t matter even if the mother is weak.
Because the fetus also wants to come out, and it will try hard to get out.
Now the fetus is weak and the mother is weak, so you can imagine how difficult the delivery will be.
Almost entirely relying on Li Quan's Tuigong technique.
"I can already see the top of my head, that's great!"
Doctor Ren Lili said loudly and excitedly.
There was a smile on everyone's face.
The head came out first, which meant that the fetal position had been corrected by Li Quan.
“Push harder!”
Li Quan encouraged the woman again, and at the same time, he also tried his best to carry out the next round of uterine pushing to assist delivery.
After several attempts, the fetus' head still did not come out.
It seems to be stuck.
"Since it is a premature baby, the fetal head cannot be too large. So there are only two reasons why it got stuck. First, it was the mother's first time giving birth, and the birth canal was very tight. Second, the fetus was weak and could not get out."
Li Quan's brows were furrowed.
Serious cases require drastic measures and cannot be delayed any longer.
Helping the fetus to be born one second earlier can greatly improve the safety of the mother and the fetus.
"Use the needle to prick the Yongquan acupoint on the sole of the woman's foot at the same time."
Li Quan ordered the doctors and nurses.
"Will this work ?" Ren Lili and the nurse were both a little embarrassed.
