Chapter 621: Both are treated, one move affects the whole body
"Haha, Director Zhou, you are always welcome to visit us as long as you have time. However, the technology in all aspects is still being perfected, so I am afraid that Director Zhou will be disappointed after seeing it."
The thing that Du Leng is most proud of is the digital operating room project.
This was a clever idea he came up with after he discovered that he had no chance of competing with Zhou Can in the field of artificial surgery.
It's a bit sad to say.
After he entered Tuya Hospital, he had high expectations and a dazzling halo, so for a long time he was not good enough. He did not calm down and study and practice down to earth, so that he was left far behind by Zhou Can and others in the initial competition.
In addition, Zhou Can has the bonus of the system, he is also very hardworking, and his talent in surgery is also not bad.
The end result is predictable.
Du Leng became a speck of dust, while Zhou Can became the rising star of Tuya Hospital.
Under such circumstances, it became almost impossible for Du Leng to surpass Zhou Can in diagnosis and surgery.
He did not waste his innate high intelligence. After much reflection, he finally came up with the idea of using technology to compete with Zhou Can.
It's like the top chess player cannot beat a low-level AI.
He believes that as long as the digital operating room is fully built, he will be able to compete with Zhou Can again.
Moreover, after experiencing setbacks and major blows, Du Leng has become more calm and humble.
"Don't say that. A nine-story tower is built from piled earth, and a ten-thousand-foot-tall tree grows from a tiny seed. Dr. Du's digital operating room is considered to be an extremely advanced black technology in China. As far as I know, only a few large hospitals in China are currently carrying out this kind of construction. As a human being, you have to keep pace with the times. I have to learn more from Dr. Du, otherwise I will be eliminated by the times!"
Zhou Can said seriously.
Digital surgery is still a rare technology in China, and even abroad, it is not perfect.
It is being continuously improved and upgraded.
As long as it can be initially applied in clinical practice, it will surely usher in great development.
Just like the surgical robots, when they were first developed, they were terribly expensive, but now their prices have come down, haven't they?
"Director Zhou is worthy of being the youngest and most promising doctor in Tuya Hospital. His thinking is very good!"
Du Leng gave Zhou Can a thumbs up.
This should also be the first time that he lowered his posture and began to appreciate and learn from Zhou Can's strengths.
"I definitely don't dare to claim to be the youngest and most promising doctor. There are too many outstanding young doctors in Tuya Hospital. I am at best just one of you guys, and I am at the bottom of the list."
After Zhou Can finished speaking, he looked at Wu Baihe.
This time I have come all the way to ask Wu Baihe for advice. I cannot leave the real master aside and keep bragging with Du Leng, the second-rate guy.
"Director Wu, I brought the child's medical records here. Please help take a look after you finish teaching them!"
Although the appointment has been made, Zhou Can will never take the spotlight.
"I'm just discussing a few medical cases with them. We've almost finished discussing them. Don't stand there. Sit down and have some tea. I'll discuss with you after I finish reading the materials. This is a good opportunity for them to learn along with me."
Wu Baihe took the information and began to check it with a serious expression.
A petite female medical student stood up sensibly and poured Zhou Can a cup of tea.
"We are drinking green tea, and we don't know if it suits Director Zhou's taste!"
She smiled and placed the tea in front of Zhou Chan.
"I'm not particular, thank you!"
Zhou Can smiled and nodded in response.
This female doctor obviously wanted to take the opportunity of pouring tea to get to know Zhou Can.
After pouring the tea, he didn't rush to sit back in his seat.
Instead, he asked, "Just now I heard Senior Brother Du chatting with you. Director Zhou should be a very famous young doctor in our Tuya Hospital. Could it be that you are the doctor Zhou Can who is known as a general practitioner?"
When Zhou Can heard this nickname, he almost spit out the tea he had just drunk.
Who gave these nicknames?
A master of all subjects, is that really an exaggeration?
"My name is Zhou Can, but I'm not an expert in all subjects."
Being a general practitioner is nothing.
Almost no doctor has the confidence to be a general practitioner.
Many doctors feel that they have never learned enough even if they study one sub-field of medicine throughout their lives. If they want to study all fields of medicine, it is estimated that their life span would have to be increased by more than ten times.
The normal life expectancy of a person is only about 80 or 90 years old, and that is already considered a long life.
In fact, many people die in their sixties.
"Oh, it's really you! I've heard a lot about you. I and many young doctors regard you as our idol and learn from you silently. Can I take this opportunity to get to know you?"
Look, people who know how to deal with things always get more opportunities than those wooden lumps.
Through a series of proactive actions, the female doctor got to know Zhou Can and at least became familiar with him.
"It's my honor to meet such an excellent and beautiful female doctor like you!"
Zhou Can smiled and nodded happily.
"Haha, you are really good at talking! Talking to you is like a spring breeze. Oh, by the way, my name is Cheng Yaxin. I just graduated this year. Fortunately, I got a special training quota given by Director Wu. I am currently studying systematic neurosurgery knowledge with Director Wu. If there is a chance in the future, please take care of me, Director Zhou."
She took the initiative to extend her right hand and wanted to shake hands with Zhou Can.
When the two shook hands, Zhou Can discovered that her right hand had six fingers, and eleven of them were long.
Polydactyly is relatively common in hospital clinical practice and is a congenital malformation.
Zhou Can just looked at him with a little surprise and didn't ask any more questions.
After all, this is someone else's physical defect.
However, according to clinical experience, there are many types of polydactyly. If it is just an extra deformed finger or syndactyly, these will cause trouble to the patient.
Not only does it have no benefits, it can also cause certain obstacles to the patient's motor function of the hands or feet.
The female doctor in front of me, Cheng Yaxin, has an extra finger on her right hand that is no different from a normal finger. When shaking hands, you can feel that the bones of that finger are normal. Some polydactyls have no bones.
It's a deformed sarcoma.
Having an extra intact normal finger is actually beneficial to the motor function of her hand.
Everyone knows that there is strength in numbers.
The same goes for fingers.
An extra finger will be more advantageous when grasping objects.
I believe many people have heard of the story about the Six-Fingered Demon.
Zhou Can subconsciously glanced at Wu Baihe.
To be eligible to be selected by Wu Baihe as a special training student, one must be extremely outstanding in the field of neurosurgery.
This female doctor has six fingers on her right hand, which may be one of the reasons why she was chosen.
Neurosurgery is known as the ceiling of surgical operations and is an extremely delicate operation.
I am really looking forward to what kind of achievements this six-fingered female doctor will make in the field of neurosurgery?
After a brief exchange between the two, Cheng Yaxin knew when to advance and retreat and sat back in her original seat.
Her purpose was to get acquainted with Zhou Can and have a preliminary understanding of him.
As for wanting to make significant progress on the first meeting, and even asking for Zhou Can's phone number, that was pure wishful thinking.
Wu Baihe finished reading the information.
"Are the child's pupils dilated?"
"No. Are you trying to determine whether the sympathetic nerves are normal by looking at the patient's pupils?"
As Zhou Can answered, he instantly understood Wu Baihe's purpose.
The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system and has an important distribution in the spinal cord.
"good."
Wu Baihe looked at Zhou Can with an appreciative look.
In terms of talent and ability, Zhou Can is an excellent choice. Unfortunately, this good seedling will never be available to neurosurgery again.
Director Xie's choice of Du Leng was a miscalculation.
Digital surgery is a very novel project with great development prospects. However, it is very difficult to achieve major technological breakthroughs and widespread application within 10 to 20 years. Moreover, many neurosurgery operations can only be performed manually.
The operation requires the doctor's comprehensive abilities such as touch, experience, and keen prediction to perform.
These cannot be replaced by current artificial intelligence at all.
After all, whether it is digital surgery or robotic surgery, the precision is indeed very good, and it can be done stably and meticulously, which are all advantages.
Lack of flexibility, tactile judgment, and diagnostic prediction are all things that digital surgery cannot match.
"This child is infected with tuberculosis, and there is definitely damage to the spinal cord. I think we can achieve ideal results by treating him from two aspects. One is anti-tuberculosis treatment, and the other is surgery."
Wu Baihe analyzed seriously.
"Do you also think that the patient's spinal nerves have suffered some damage?"
Zhou Can came to ask Wu Baihe for advice because he was unsure about this point.
If you are infected with tuberculosis, you cannot undergo surgery and need to undergo anti-tuberculosis treatment first.
Through multiple assessments, Zhou Can was unsure whether the child's spinal nerves had suffered traumatic injury.
"Through the tests you did on the patient, I can basically conclude that there is trauma to his cervical spinal nerves. However, the trauma is probably minor, so some nerve functions still exist. Let me put it this way, the patient's high paraplegia is still caused by spinal nerve trauma, and the sensory nerves continue to decay from the neck down, which is caused by tuberculosis infection. It is very simple to verify this clinically. First, give anti-tuberculosis treatment, and then test the sensory nerve function."
He is worthy of being a top expert in neurosurgery.
The judgment and diagnostic skills are first-rate.
He gave a final conclusion on the diagnosis that Zhou Can was unsure about in just a few words.
"After successful anti-tuberculosis treatment, do sick children still need surgery? Or will it delay the timing of the surgery?"
Zhou Can asked again.
"Whether it will delay the surgery or not, the conditions for surgery are not met now. Let's start with anti-tuberculosis treatment. Spinal nerves don't necessarily have to be transected or ruptured to cause nerve dysfunction. If they are stretched to the limit when damaged, or if they are hit hard, conduction disorders may occur. This patient may have problems in this regard, so you should be prepared."
"I must remind you that even if you do the surgery, it will be hellishly difficult."
After Wu Baihe solemnly warned Zhou Can, he looked at him deeply.
"I know that you have always wanted to help Lao Xu turn his life around. You are so active in treating this sick child. You must want to use this opportunity to enhance the influence and reputation of the field of neurosurgery, and at the same time accumulate successful experience in spinal nerve surgery."
I didn't expect that although Wu Baihe seemed to be devoted to studying medicine, he actually knew a lot of things clearly.
Zhou Can never told anyone about his idea of helping Dr. Xu get rid of his crime.
But Wu Baihe guessed it.
Those who can become doctors all have extremely high IQs.
The competition for medical majors was fierce. Students with low IQ and lack of self-discipline were all ruthlessly eliminated.
Currently, the most recognized high-knowledge professions are doctors, civil servants, and scientific researchers.
The teaching profession also requires high knowledge, but there is a certain degree of compatibility.
For example, doctors, when they grow to a certain level, will have teaching tasks.
Zhou Can is about to be promoted to chief physician, but Director Tan has already pulled him into the teaching team and forced him to become a teacher.
And the students he teaches are all graduate students and doctoral students.
"I have a deep relationship with Lao Xu, so I can't help you much. I can't lead the troops into battle. At my level, a small move can affect the whole body. I believe you can understand this. I can drum up support for you, give you a push from behind, and provide logistical support. These are no problem."
Wu Baihe said this to Zhou Can in front of so many students.
This shows that he trusts these students very much, and at the same time he also wants them to know some of the hardships and dangers of being a doctor.
On the first day that every doctor enters the clinic, I believe that the more responsible senior doctors and teachers will teach the same thing, which is to let these novice doctors learn to protect themselves.
Wu Baihe also wanted to use this conversation to help these students understand the cruelty of society.
He is now the chief physician of neurosurgery and a famous figure.
It also represents the position of Tuya Hospital.
It can be said that the family is large and the business is great.
The patient with whom Dr. Xu had the accident had an extremely special and distinguished identity.
If Wu Baihe came forward to treat the patient and succeeded, everyone would be happy. But if he failed, the consequences would be disastrous.
By then, the neurosurgery department of Tuya Hospital will be severely damaged or even disbanded.
This is no joke.
There are some powerful people, and ordinary people are really like ants in front of them.
In fact, the human world has always been like this throughout history.
Wu Baihe holds a high position in Tuya Hospital and enjoys a lot of power, but in front of those powerful people, it is nothing at all.
So, he wanted to save Dr. Xu but didn't dare to do it himself.
The spinal cord is known as a neural forbidden area, and surgery in this area is extremely dangerous.
The probability of failure is frighteningly high.
Now that Zhou Can is doing this, things are much different.
Even if it fails, the loss is only Zhou Can, not a department of Tuya Hospital. Of course, for Tuya Hospital, this is still a huge loss.
Top talents like Zhou Can are unique and hard to find again.
