godfather of surgery

Chapter 438 Aviation Rescue
Since Zheng Baosheng was admitted to the hospital, Yang Ping has not talked with Zheng Baosheng's family members individually.

He called Zheng Baosheng's parents to the consultation room. For such high-risk patients, they had to talk repeatedly before the operation, with the patient and their family members.

Zheng Baosheng's parents, 50 years old, have gray hair and black eye circles. They used to open a restaurant in Qingdao, Shandong. Doctor, turned around in a big circle.

I have gone to several big hospitals, and the doctors have almost the same caliber. This kind of scoliosis is already very serious and daunting, and the organs and blood vessels in the chest cavity and abdominal cavity may have some kind of exudative inflammatory lesions of unknown cause in the past. , resulting in extensive adhesions and contractures of the adhesions, leading to the displacement and deformity of the organs and blood vessels, and there are still many anatomical variations in the blood vessels. No one dares to perform this kind of operation.

In the past year, Zheng Baosheng's stomach began to swell, and his breathing was a bit laborious. He felt a little powerless when he moved a little bit. When he slept in a wrong posture, he would experience dizziness, chest tightness, nausea, vomiting, and cold sweats.

The couple were anxious, and took their son to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University to see a doctor. The doctor said that it was very troublesome, and the inferior vena cava syndrome had already appeared. position, it will cause more serious consequences, it is recommended to go to the imperial capital.

They had no choice but to close the restaurant, take stock of their savings, and prepare to take their son on the road to seek medical treatment again.

Zheng Baosheng's father said that he never expected that Professor Liang from Xiehe Hospital would call him at this time. Over the years, some professors kept his phone number, but he never dared to change the phone number. he.

Professor Liang called him, saying that there was a glimmer of hope, and asked him to go to Dr. Yang Ping of Sanbo Hospital. Among Dr. Yang's successful spinal correction cases, some cases were more serious than Zheng Baosheng, but he was not sure. How to deal with abdominal organ problems.

After receiving the news, Mr. Zheng immediately took his wife and children, bought a train ticket, and rushed to Sanbo Hospital in Nandu Province.

But Yang Ping did not go to the clinic, so he called Professor Zhang Zongshun. After learning about the situation, Professor Zhang said that it was very difficult, but there was hope, and he was hospitalized.

Lao Zheng and his wife held their hospital certificates and were so excited that they didn't sleep all night.

"Professor Liang recommended it. Didn't I hear you say it?" It was the first time Yang Ping heard Father Zheng say that.

Father Zheng blushed: "In the past few days in the hospital, every time Dr. Yang came to make rounds, there were many people. I was afraid that telling this would affect Professor Liang's reputation. Professor Liang is a great professor. He helped me like this. I have to worry about people's reputation."

It is rare for a patient to think this way. Professor Liang's medical ethics is really admirable. He holds a high position and always thinks about his patients. He even calls them personally to guide them to see a doctor.

Thinking of the old professor coming and going in a hurry, Yang Ping was very moved.

"Doctor, I know that the success rate of his operation is very low. If he doesn't do it, he won't live long if he continues like this. The child himself knows that he is waiting to die now. Waiting to die like this is too cruel. If there is a glimmer of hope, even if there is a glimmer of hope A little bit, we are all willing to take risks, even if we fail, we will try our best." Father Zheng said excitedly, he did not want to give up this last glimmer of hope.

Zheng Baosheng's mother nodded aside, this is what she wanted to say.

Go all out, there will be no regrets, the parents' idea is as simple as that.

Poor parents all over the world, all efforts are for this child.

"I'm just here to talk to you about the operation. There is no model for this operation, because his anatomy has completely changed, and the positions of many blood vessels are uncertain. During the separation of large blood vessels, damage will occur, and the entire internal organs have to be re-arranged. I I have never done this kind of operation, no one else in the world has done it, and there is no case to refer to, but I have carefully analyzed Xiao Zheng's case information, I think the operation is feasible and the risk is great, but there is hope, how much hope there is, I really dare not make any guarantees, if you are willing to take the risk with me, I am willing to go all out!" Yang Ping said every word, any operation, except rescue operation, pre-operative communication must be in place, whether it is legal, or Ethically, that should be the case.

It is best to stay away from doctors who pat their chests and guarantee [-]% success of the operation.

"I know, a doctor once said that this operation is like rebuilding in a pile of ruins." Father Zheng said.

And the mother sat by the side and kept silent. Obviously, she listened to her husband on this matter.

"I'm talking to you today, just to tell you that you have to be mentally prepared, he—may have cardiac arrest on the operating table." Yang Ping finally got to the point.

After a brief silence, the mother sobbed, and the father buried his head, touched his tears, and raised his head: "Understood, we are mentally prepared."

"Okay, then we will fight side by side, take risks together, and give Xiao Zheng a hope. We still need to give him further examinations, especially the organs and blood vessels in his chest and abdominal cavity, so as to obtain more comprehensive information. , we have to prepare blood for him before the operation. In addition to allogeneic blood, we also need to draw his own blood to store for use in the operation. His situation is a bit special. His blood type is RH negative, which is very rare. In my country, people with Rh-negative blood account for about 0.34%. As for his AB-type RH-negative, the proportion of the population is only 0.034%. We need to contact the blood bank and ask volunteers to donate blood in advance to increase the reserve. A lot of blood, everything is ready, when the time comes, we will arrange surgery."

Regarding surgery, Yang Ping has always tried his best to be as tight as possible.

A fluke mentality is an invisible killer!
"I know, there will definitely be a lot of blood. He has donated a lot of blood before and saved many people. Now that he knows that he will have an operation, many people have asked when the operation will be. If they need blood, they can come here at any time." Father Zheng's eyes The light flickered, as if with blood, his son's operation would be successful.

If so, the matter of blood will be much easier to handle.

"How many people with AB type RH negative blood can be called to donate blood?" Yang Ping had to be sure.

"Dozens should be fine!"

If there are dozens of people, each donating [-] milliliters, more than [-] milliliters of blood can be collected.

"These people, can you notify them to come now?"

"Yes, someone has already come and lives near the hospital, saying that he will leave after his operation is completed."

I am for everyone, and everyone is for me.

Yang Ping was quite moved: "How many people are here?"

"There are fourteen, and there are twenty more. If the blood drawing time is confirmed, they will come right away."

"With the support of these people, the confidence of the operation will be much improved. You let them come over as soon as possible and draw blood in advance. We need a lot of blood." Yang Ping felt a little more chance of winning.

No one can guarantee that there will be any accidents during the operation. Any preparation is to deal with accidents. It may not be used, but it must be prepared.

"Go back, I will keep you informed of the preparation progress." Yang Ping began to prepare for the operation.

Lao Zheng and his wife heard Yang Ping say that there was hope, and they kept bowing in excitement.

Disease is an eternal threat to human beings. From ancient times to the present, with the advancement of science, diseases have been continuously overcome, but new diseases will appear again.

Therefore, human beings will always be on the way to conquer diseases.

Once this kind of threat falls on a specific individual, it is sometimes a disaster.

Just after Lao Zheng and his wife were sent away, Yang Ping received a call from Huang Jiacai, saying that Gan Fengyi's mother was ill and critically ill!The case information has been sent to Yang Ping's mailbox, and Yang Ping is asked to look it up.

Yang Ping quickly opened the mailbox on his mobile phone. There was a document with many attachments in it. The screen was too small to read the pictures on his mobile phone. Read the film.

The ependymoma of the upper cervical spinal cord at the junction of the skull base has already caused quadriplegia. Because of the paralysis of the ventilator, the ventilator is now used to maintain breathing. Surgery must be performed as soon as possible to remove the tumor and relieve the compression on the nerve tissue.

Compared with Feng Lao's tumor, this is much easier.

"It's urgent, transfer to Sanbo Hospital as soon as possible!"

Yang Ping immediately called Huang Jiacai. In this case, even if he flew there, without the cooperation of the corresponding team and the assistance of sophisticated equipment, there was no way to perform the operation. He had to be transferred, but the risk during the transfer was also very high.

"I contacted Lao Cheng and asked him to ask Mr. Zhu to come forward and help connect a medical plane to Chengdu. Here, the hospital ambulance will send the plane to Nandu Airport. Please send an ambulance to pick it up." Huang Jiacai contacted Yang Ping, one side is already arranging for transshipment.

If a fixed-wing medical aircraft is arranged for special transfer, the safety factor will be much greater.

"Well, as soon as possible! I will arrange a helicopter to pick you up at the airport and keep in touch."

Yang Ping hung up the phone, and immediately called Lao Cheng again: "Old Cheng, how is the preparation for the plane?"

"Old Zhu came forward and transferred a medical plane in the name of Anning Insurance. I'm rushing to Nandu Airport." Lao Cheng was in a hurry and was leaving for the airport.

The relationship between Lao Cheng and Huang Jiacai is very good now, and they went to the United States with Yang Ping last time.

"Go to Sanbo Hospital first, and I'll take some people there for you." Yang Ping was going to order some people for Lao Cheng to take on the plane.

An Ning Insurance has a cooperative relationship with the China Red Cross 999 professional aviation medical rescue fleet. It happened that 999 had an aircraft that completed its mission and temporarily parked at Nandu Airport. The aircraft that Lao Zhu helped call was this aircraft, an aviation rescue aircraft modified from a Gulfstream G550.

This professional aviation medical rescue fixed-wing aircraft has a maximum range of 12501 kilometers and a cruising speed of 980 kilometers per hour. It only takes a few hours to go to and from Chengdu.

The aircraft cabin is divided into four cabins: service cabin, medical cabin, family cabin, and captain’s rest cabin, with a total of 13 fixed seats and a multi-purpose medical stretcher bed.

The plane is equipped with four complete sets of ICU rescue and transfer units, including infusion pumps, micropumps, ventilators, sputum suction devices, monitoring and defibrillation all-in-one machines, vacuum negative pressure plastic stretchers, blood gas analyzers and other equipment, and four sets of general patient transfer equipment , up to 8 patients can be transferred at the same time, 4 patients in lying position and 4 patients in sitting position.

The aircraft is also equipped with medical equipment such as ECMO extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system, on-board blood bank, baby incubator, heating and cooling blanket, medical film viewing lamp, laboratory operation table, remote consultation wireless WIFI digital image transmission system, etc.

The multi-purpose medical bed in the medical cabin can be moved laterally to the middle of the cabin during the flight to ensure that the medical rescue personnel can rescue patients at any time.

At the same time, the top of the medical bed can be replaced with an on-board baby incubator or a negative pressure isolation cabin to meet newborns and patients who need negative pressure isolation. There are 4 large oxygen cylinders with a volume of 21.5L and 4 oxygen cylinders with a volume of 8.4 L's portable oxygen cylinder can meet the uninterrupted oxygen supply of patients on board during the transfer.

There are also several professional doctors and nurses on the plane, as well as routine emergency medicine.

This plane, it can be said, is equivalent to a small mobile ICU ward, and it is currently the most powerful medical transport vehicle.

Yang Ping was still worried, so he immediately called Song Zimo, borrowed a doctor and a nurse from the director of the ICU, and asked Song Zimo to bring the ICU doctors and nurses to follow Lao Cheng on the plane.

The plane picks up people, and once they return to Nandu Airport, the helicopter from Sanbo Hospital will pick them up.

Yang Ping calculated the time and immediately called Xiao Su to ask her to prepare surgical instruments.
