Doctor Peerless

Chapter 763 Upper Extracorporeal Circulation

Zhou Yisheng made up his mind to fight this tumor to the end without compromise.

Although Zhou Sheng could choose an easy and risk-free surgery plan, to partially remove the tumor and deal with the surgery in front of him.

But Zhou Sheng did not approve of this perfunctory plan.

Zhou Sheng decided to perform extracorporeal circulation on Jing Xinghai to make preparations for the next step of completely removing the tumor.

Zhou Sheng looked at Jing Xinghai who was in a coma, and thought, if Jing Xinghai was sober at this time, with his character, he would definitely support his decision.

Extracorporeal circulation is also known as cardiopulmonary bypass.

This is an important life support method that started in the 60s and matured in the 80s and 90s.

In some complex heart surgeries, it is necessary to ensure that the heart cannot beat in order to operate.Because if the heart is beating, a large amount of blood will be ejected when the heart is cut, and the surgical field of view will not be able to see the situation at all, and there is no way to operate.

But if the heart stops beating for 5 minutes, the brain will die. Even after the operation, the person has become a vegetable. In this case, the meaning of the operation is lost.

For this reason, the technology of extracorporeal circulation was born.It drains the purple hypoxic blood in the body into the machine through the superior and inferior vena cava cannula, and then the blood turns into bright red arterial blood through the "oxygenator" connected with oxygen, and the blood is pumped through the roller pump. Go back to the aorta to supply the needs of the whole body tissue.

It can be said that the human heart is temporarily replaced by artificial equipment through surgery.

You can know it through a simple introduction.

Although this is only a life support technology.

But its difficulty can be said to be the most difficult of all life support projects.

In simple terms, this is a simplified version of the heart transplant technique.

Use an artificial heart to replace the human heart.

Although it is a simple version, the difficulty can also be imagined.

Want to master this technology proficiently.

Without a skill that has been honed outside the mind for more than ten years, it is difficult to do this operation.

For example, at this moment, Wang Xiaoming and Zhao Feihu are standing on the operating table.

Wang Xiaoming has worked in the Central Hospital for six or seven years.

As long as the heart surgery does not involve extracorporeal circulation, he can basically do it independently.

But this extracorporeal circulation, he has not done independently.

I just tried it under the guidance of Director Cao and Director Tian.

As for Zhao Feihu, he was considered to be the old attending with the deepest qualifications outside his heart.

It has been more than ten years since I came to the Central Hospital.

In an emergency, he has the ability to independently complete the operation of extracorporeal circulation, but in reality, he has not completely operated independently.

Generally speaking, heart surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass is a difficult heart surgery.

These surgeries were basically monopolized by cardiologists at the level of Director Cao and Director Tian.In this kind of operation, Zhao Feihu can only do soy sauce and help out.

Zhou Sheng said that the doctor ordered extracorporeal circulation.

The entire operating room immediately became busy.

This is an operating room dedicated to heart surgery.

All the equipment needed for cardiac surgery is basically available.

The equipment nurse quickly pushed over the extracorporeal circulation equipment.

The entire device is on a trolley that is as tall as a person.

It seems that the pipeline above is somewhat intricate.Seeing it for the first time, it makes people feel dazzled.

When Cao Xin saw the launch of this device, his heart was very heavy.

Outside of his heart, he also stayed for nearly a year.

Taking advantage of his uncle Cao Xiangwen's face, although he didn't have many opportunities to operate, he visited and learned a lot of unexpected operations.

Whenever the device is pushed out during surgery.

Cao Xiangwen knew that the operation would not be over in less than five or six hours.

And there was no time when this device was launched.

Often the operation only takes three to four hours to end.

From the time of operation, the difference between the two can be clearly distinguished.

From the operating personnel, we can also see the difference.

When using this equipment, the chief surgeon is generally at the level of an uncle.

Those who didn't use this equipment were basically at the level of Wang Xiaoming and Zhao Feihu.

If he was usually in the operating room, Cao Xin would still like to see this device appear.

This means that I am going through a difficult heart surgery.

As a newcomer seeking knowledge on the path of a doctor, Cao Xin certainly hopes to experience the most difficult surgery.

Just like several interns at the moment.

When they heard Zhou Sheng said that he was going to undergo extracorporeal circulation, several people had obvious excitement on their faces.

However, at this moment, Cao Xin's mood was quite different from usual.

Lying on the operating table was Jing Xinghai, his friend. He hoped not to use extracorporeal circulation equipment at this moment.

He even hoped that after Zhou Sheng could incision of the pericardium, he would simply remove the tumor with a few cuts, and then declare the operation a success.

But he also knew that it was impossible for Jing Xinghai's condition to be like that.

Not many doctors like to overdo it, especially in the operating room.

After undergoing extracorporeal circulation, Cao Xin understood that Jing Xinghai would face the test of life and death.

Thinking of this, Cao Xin's heart suddenly constricted. Suddenly, he felt his heart beating violently, and his hands and feet were also a little cold.

Cao Xin knew that he was nervous.

This feeling is like the feeling when I entered the operating room for the first time.

At that time, I was a complete rookie. Although I was only visiting and studying in the operating room, I was inevitably nervous.

However, Cao Xin has not felt this nervous feeling for a long time as he often goes in and out of the operating room.

Today's nervousness is entirely because the people on the operating table are too familiar.

At this time, Cao Xin thought of one thing.Zhou Sheng also knew Jing Xinghai. If he performed an operation on Jing Xinghai, would his knowledge of Jing Xinghai affect his judgment on the operation?

to be frank.

Because of these few times of getting along, Zhou Sheng and Jing Xinghai are also familiar with each other.

Although it doesn't feel like an old friend, it can still be regarded as a friend.

The feeling of operating on someone you know is definitely different from operating on a stranger.

Surgery requires the operator to be very calm.

But emotion is the thing that is most likely to affect people's judgment.

There is a saying that is good, machines will never make mistakes, but people will always make mistakes.

People have emotions and feelings, and are often influenced by emotions to make wrong judgments.Machines, on the other hand, are cold and unforgiving.

Just like Zhousheng's system, it diagnoses each patient's condition without any emotion. In it, it will never say sorry to the patients and their families, we did our best.

That's what makes it so powerful.

Zhou Sheng will never be able to do this.

Just now, Zhou Yisheng hesitated whether to give Jing Xinghai extracorporeal circulation or not.

But Zhou Sheng has a heart to save others.

The equipment for extracorporeal circulation was ready, and it came alive on Monday...
