godfather of surgery

Chapter 557
After the operation, Cui Shukai, who was equipped with an external fixator on his lower back, was sent back to the ward like a robot soldier.

This external fixator will follow him for about three months. During this period, he can walk normally, but he can't lie flat when sleeping, he can only sleep on his side.

But it was nothing to Cui Shukai, because of the deformed spine, he could not lie down normally before the operation.

Cui Xubing and Guo Liu stayed by the bed, staring at the strange device on the son's back. The nurse explained to them the precautions during the treatment of the external fixator.

If one day, my son's spine was successfully straightened by this thing, how happy it would be.

Because of their son, the husband and wife have always been unable to hold their heads up in front of relatives and friends, and they have often been pointed behind their backs.

After the operation, the head nurse Cai returned the red envelope to Cui Xubing, and 2 yuan was handed over to Cui Shukai's hospital account. The original large envelope contained the payment receipt.

When Cui Xubing received the returned red envelope, his face was cloudy, and his heart began to beat. I am afraid that his son failed the operation?
This father, who has a strong brain power, immediately drew a mind map in his mind, with the return of the red envelope as the core, and his thoughts spread in all directions.

Then think about the rules and regulations of the pre-operative conversation and signature, what kind of pinhole infection, what kind of damage to the spinal cord and nerves.

Pinhole infection is the pus in the pinhole, and the pus will flow out.

Damage to the spinal cord and nerve roots can cause paraplegia.

After brainstorming for a while, Cui Xubing shuddered. Every exposed nail was covered with gauze where it came into contact with the skin, and nothing could be seen. He quickly lifted the gauze to see if there was any pus.

As soon as he reached out his hand, his wife Guo Liu slapped the back of his hand: "You just finished the operation, can you touch it randomly? Are you afraid of causing infection? Just now the doctor told us not to mess with the external fixator for the time being."

It was difficult for Lao Cui to express his worries, so he let his son move his feet.

But the son was a little dazed and wanted to sleep all the time, and he didn't cooperate with Lao Cui at all. Lao Cui pulled the chair closer and fixed his eyes on his son's feet to see if they could move.

"What do you want to do?" Guo Liu felt that something was wrong with her husband, but her husband's suspicion was not a daily thing, and Guo Liu was used to it.

After observing for more than ten minutes, my son's feet started to move.

Where is the problem?Old Cui kept thinking about it.

"Are you afraid that there is something wrong with the surgery because they returned the red envelope?" Guo Liu sneered and asked her husband softly.

Old Cui looked disdainful, and lowered his voice: "What does a woman know, who in this society can't live with money? There must be something wrong with it."

"Do you think that everyone is just like you, staring at money all day long?" Guo Liu felt that her husband was a bit "the heart of a villain, and the belly of a gentleman."

Old Cui stared hard: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't make money for this family."

If he was at home, Lao Cui would definitely give his wife a good fix. Whether it is IQ or social experience, he feels that he is a bit higher than his wife. Cui calls the shots.

Guo Liu was too lazy to argue with him and stopped talking.

Cui Xubing spent several days in the hospital in anxiety. He sometimes went to Yang Ping’s office to ask about his son’s condition. It is a gradual process, just like the growth of a sapling. It grows every day, but you can't see this change every day.

Although Yang explained clearly, Cui Xubing was always uneasy. He came to the door of Yang Ping's office several times, walked back and forth in the aisle, and returned to the ward sighing and frowning.

On the 7th day, the external fixator on Cui Shukai's lower back started to rotate the knobs to move the bone, 1 mm per day, and completed it in four times, with 0.25 mm moved in one time.

This work is very simple, that is, four times a day, turn each knob on time and according to the amount.

Although simple, it also requires dedication and persistence.

If the knob is screwed wrong, or if you often forget to turn the knob, it will directly affect the surgical effect.

In hospitals, this work is performed exclusively by nurses and is registered in real time.

After discharge from the hospital, this work is handed over to the family members to complete.
-
Yasmeni from Oman has already been able to walk back and forth in the corridors. She and Dr. Feida have mastered the content of rehabilitation training. In a few days, they plan to be discharged from the hospital and return home.

Xiao Minmin had her stitches removed and was discharged from the hospital. Grandpa and grandma sent a pennant to thank everyone for their care.

Cui Shukai's spine model stands on the desk, and the external fixator is installed on the model.

This model was specially designed by Ruixing Company and placed in Yang Ping's office as a souvenir.

Yang Ping sat in the office, thinking about his next plan. After Cui Shukai's surgery was successful, he would get a large sum of system points.

In this way, he can carry out the experiment of cultivating muscle with stem cells. The scale of this experiment is huge, and the points consumed need tens of millions of points, which exceeds the point consumption of any previous project.

Yang Ping took an inventory of the equipment in the system space laboratory, and there was still an electron microscope missing, which was a necessary equipment.

Stem cells to cultivate muscles, if you go in the direction of 3D printing, I am afraid it will take a lot of time to catch up with others.

3D printing is actually a relatively low-level route. It uses stem cells to grow into cells of the target organ, and then uses these cells as raw materials to print out the three-dimensional shape of the organ.

The organs harvested in this way can obtain functions similar to the target organs, but it is absolutely impossible to obtain complete functions.

Because this combination of cells is passive and very rough, it cannot simulate the complex connections between cells in real organs at all.

The best way to truly grow muscle is to simulate how muscles develop and form when the human body develops from a fertilized egg to a human body.

Why are the same stem cells, some can differentiate into the heart, some into the lung, some into the bone, and some into the muscle? What exactly guides these cells to undergo precise differentiation.

If you can find out the mystery, using stem cells to directly cultivate muscles, which is several generations behind bio-3D printing technology.

Someone knocked on the door, and Yang Ping immediately put down his work: "Please come in!"

It was Cui Xubing again.

Yang Ping is a little disgusted with this entangled person. If it is not a doctor-patient relationship, he must face him. Yang Ping doesn't want to talk to this person at all.

The same question has been explained many times, but he still asks it repeatedly, presumptuously.

"Professor Yang!"

Cui Xubing accompanied him with a smiling face, he was too embarrassed to bother Yang Ping all the time.

"What's the matter?" Yang Ping asked him.

Cui Xubing was a little hesitant: "Professor Yang, there is nothing wrong with my son's operation, why is there no progress these days?"

This question has been explained no less than five times, and now it is the sixth.

"I explained it to you yesterday, have you forgotten?"

Yang Ping was also polite, how could he have so much time to spend with him, he struggled with a problem over and over again, at least half an hour, sometimes more than an hour, Yang Ping can do a lot of things in one hour.

At this time Song Zimo saw Cui Xubing was in Yang Ping's office again, so he came over immediately.

"Old Cui, Professor Yang is very busy, let me explain to you."

Cui Xubing was unwilling and said, "I'll just delay Professor Yang for a few minutes."

Speak for a few minutes each time, no less than half an hour each time.

Cui Xubing closed the door of Yang Ping's office by himself, and Song Zimo had no choice but to drive him away. Xu Zhiliang said, "Only Zhang Lin can handle this person. If Zhang Lin was here, I'm sure he wouldn't have the guts to turn around at the door."

Zhang Lin is now on maternity leave, and no one can lower his face like Zhang Lin and yell at him, making him doubt his life.

Cui Xubing came out of Yang Ping's office and left quickly, with an expression as if he had succeeded in doing something bad.

Yang Ping picked up the phone and called head nurse Cai.

"Hey! Why do I have to accept this red envelope? I gave it once yesterday, but I refused, and I sent it again today."

Yang Ping pointed to the envelope on the desk, and the weight was estimated to be another [-]. This person still has some money.

"Who is so persistent in giving red envelopes?"

Yang Ping asked head nurse Cai to take the red envelope to register and return it.

Head nurse Cai smiled: "Professor Yang, you didn't see that after the red envelope was returned, this family member kept frowning, and caught a nurse and asked, there should be no problem with this operation. It seems that if the red envelope is not accepted, his knot will be resolved." No? The treatment process will take another three months, and it is estimated that during these three months, he will be depressed."

"You can't refund it to him after three months?" Yang Ping really didn't want to be bothered by this kind of thing.

Don't accept red envelopes, and people suspect that the operation is not done well?

Why is this person's thinking a little sick?
Head nurse Cai shook her head and said, "I definitely can't retreat after three months. In case something goes wrong halfway, you can't clear up the misunderstanding even if you jumped to the Yellow River. Now there are a lot of family members taking photos and videos. This kind of thing happened before. The patient’s entrustment in a small county is related to the imperial capital asking the professor to perform the operation with a flying knife. The family members pay the labor service fee according to the price negotiated in advance. The professor in the imperial capital is dumb and eats Coptis chinensis, so he had to refund the money. From then on, the patients in this county wanted to go outside for expert consultation and surgery, but none of the experts dared to go, who would jump into the shit hole for a little labor fee?"

Head nurse Cai continued: "You don't have to take care of his feelings. Whether he is worried or anxious is his business. You can't take the risk of being bitten back just to take care of his feelings."

"Okay, you go and get this done, don't let him keep pestering you, there's no end to one problem."

Yang Ping doesn't want to spend his time on these boring things. Of course, his principle of doing things is to stick to his duty.

What is the duty, it is the duty to do the operation well and do our best to cure the disease and save the patient.

He didn't want to pay attention to things outside his duty, let alone take care of them.
