Nineteenth Century Medical Guide

Chapter 134 131. Fernand's Problem
Meadows' presence in the classroom serves three purposes.

One is that he originally wanted to wait for Carvey to report in the office, but he didn’t, so he wanted to confirm it; the other is that he was too impatient to wait for the details of the cesarean section for several days; the third is that the separate laboratory given by the school has been prepared .

In fact, according to Meadows's personal opinion, Carvey didn't need to take anatomy class.

With his surgical performance these days, his two speeches at the School of Surgery, and the discovery of drugs that are likely to change the medical landscape, he can stay in the laboratory and only take the classes he wants.

So when he saw him actually sitting in the classroom, Meadows still felt very strange: "According to your surgical ability, your knowledge of anatomy is no worse than that of Professor Lange, why bother to go to class?"

Carvey walked beside him with a bag in his hand: "I heard that the school's application for exemption is very troublesome. I just came here for the first day, so it's not good to just skip classes."

"You can come to me first."

Meadows replied first, and suddenly Langer's bad temper felt inappropriate, so he gave Carvey an inoculation in advance: "However, those department directors in the medical school are indeed very strict. Professor Langer is a typical example. The requirements for class It’s too high. Of course, you have such a solid surgical foundation, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

"So... the class is still on?"

Of course, Carvey doesn't want to take anatomy class, but he is a transfer student, and the initiative is not in his hands.In addition, Bergett and the others have been exaggerating the rigorous teaching attitude of those teachers in the school, so he wants to find time to discuss with Meadows about the exemption without skipping classes.

Now it seems that it is not easy to get an advanced standing in a certain subject.

"The main reason is that there is no precedent in the college." Meadows led Carvey into the experimental building, "Let's take a look at what the school has prepared for you. You must know that undergraduates in the first two years of the university are not eligible to use it alone. Laboratory."

"I just mentioned a sentence in the letter last time, but I didn't expect it to be approved so soon?"【1】

"The effects of those two drugs are real. The school is very aware of your potential and is willing to give resources a preference."

Meadows said this, but when he saw the stairs, he didn't choose to go upstairs, but turned around and opened the safety door on the side.

In fact, the college's resources are tight, and it is impossible to be as generous as the dean said.Carvey's laboratory is not upstairs in the sun, but in the basement.The environment here cannot be compared with the large room upstairs, and the equipment is also very old. The light can only rely on a few oil lamps and glass transoms built on the ground.

"Don't think the environment is bad, it would be great to get you this basement." Meadows took out the key, took Carvey downstairs and opened the door of the second room, "Here is the key. It’s up to you. The experiment must be safe, and if necessary, you can find me or the administrator here.”

Although Carvey had already prepared for the harsh environment, he did not expect the conditions in the laboratory to be so simple.Flasks, spirit lamps, test tubes, and other simple glassware are probably all that can be used: "Don't you have a microscope?"

"This..." Meadows looked around and did not see a microscope, "I will get you one in two days."

"Okay, thank you Dean."

"Thank you, anyway, the funds have just arrived, and the school's new experimental center will start construction soon, and it is not difficult to allocate a basement." Meadows smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I will explain the operation to me later. Just don’t miss the details.”

"Of course." Carvey was thinking about the laboratory in his heart, but he had already found a sketch in his hand, "I have learned anatomy books these days and drew a few simple diagrams of surgical operations by myself, and it will be easier to explain them. Be intuitive."

"Okay, very good." Meadows was in a good mood, "I'll have a good talk with Professor Lange in a few days. Exemption shouldn't be a big problem."

Carvey has inherited the drawing skills of the original owner of the body, and the operation pictures are not bad. It took the whole morning to make Meadows fully realize how many details there are in the cesarean section.

I had a meal at noon, and in the afternoon I had a basic chemistry class.

Meadows and the chemistry teaching and research section specially greeted each other, but the result was not ideal. Exemption of students is a major issue, and it cannot be solved by a simple opening of the dean.Carvey had no choice but to sit in the classroom with a book for more than 2 hours, and made a lot of cold meals during middle school and college.

Chemistry in this era does not have a periodic table of elements, and the teaching content is still very confusing. Classes are still mainly based on thesis code words.

At 03:30 in the afternoon, after the end of the day's classes, Carvey left school and returned to the Municipal General Hospital.

Although students are mainly academics and the medical school has a lot of courses, his job is still a doctor.Decades of clinical work have allowed Kawei to develop the habit of going to the hospital for rounds every day. If he doesn't go for a day, he will feel uncertain.

The main purpose of ward rounds is still those patients recovering after surgery.

Carvey is most concerned about Brenda, who has just undergone a cesarean section. Perhaps because of excessive bleeding, her surgical incision did not grow well.There was obvious ulceration in the lower incision, but fortunately, the ulceration did not completely collapse the incision, and her body temperature was normal.

"We must continue to change the dressing strictly." Carvey said after carefully inspecting the incision, "and keep the wound dry."

Standing next to him are two interns sent here by the medical school. They are the juniors of Bergett, Sarson and Melen. Because it is the internship teaching required by the school, they are more capable than Bergett and the others. Health is worse.

There is no clear concept of what Carvey said about "keeping dry", and he is even more ignorant about "changing dressings".

"You haven't seen my surgery?"

"No."

"Then when Bergett comes back and asks him to do it, you all have to watch carefully."

"it is good."

Carvey continued: "How's the bleeding underneath her? How much?"

"Not much, these two days have been very few."

"Well, that's good." Carvey stepped forward and glanced at the child [2] who was lying on his side and drinking milk beside Brenda, "How is the child?"

"child?"

"Well, how's your appetite? Did you sleep well? Are you energetic? Are you crying hard?"

Carvey has no illusions about pediatrics in the 19th century, but these are the most basic observations of newborns, and there is no mention of them in the medical records.The two young men who made the ward rounds didn't know anything about the child's physical condition. In the end, Brenda replied, "His skin was a little yellow two days ago."

Carvey looked at the child carefully, "It seems to be a little bit now."

"Ah."

"Change her hospital bed." Carvey looked back at an empty bed by the window, "Change it there, it can get some sun, it will help."【3】

"Okay, change the 11 beds to 7 beds."

"Pay attention to protecting the child's eyes when basking in the sun. Just dry the hands and feet." Carvey gently touched the child's head, then took the small medicine bottle from the cabinet, "Let him drink more milk, don't eat it." This is not good for his body and yellow skin symptoms."

This is "Tranquility Syrup" [4] bought from a pharmacy outside. The main raw material is tincture of ya tablets. Although the hospital does not give it to children, there is no mandatory rule that parents cannot give it.There are many mothers who have prepared syrup early, just waiting to reduce the difficulty of bringing a baby in the future.

"Can't drink?"

"Well, it's not good for children born by cesarean section." Carvey made up a reason casually, "and many doctors have realized that children seem not suitable for drinking these, and they are prone to many other symptoms, including jaundice."

"But what if he cries?"

"Because of jaundice, because of hunger, because of peeing, because the sleeping place is uncomfortable, because there is no one to hug, he can only express his request by crying." Carvey explained, "We need to meet his request, Instead of just putting the child to sleep."

Brenda was a little embarrassed because raising children was a chore.

She not only has to take care of the newborn baby next to the bed, but also thinks about the incision on her stomach, and takes care of the older baby when she gets home.Calm Syrup does calm the baby and get her through the early childhood years.

But since it was Carvey's request, she would definitely do it: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The next one was Alphonse, who was almost better.

It is indeed not easy to grow the hemorrhoid surgery incision under such nursing conditions, which shows that he has been doing what Carvey said.Do not smoke or drink, reduce standing time, keep the incision dry, and defecate smoothly
"You can leave the hospital tomorrow."

Alphonse is very confident in his butt, and his attention is all on the corner not far away: "Where is that one?"

"Mr. Li Ben may not leave so soon." Carvey calculated the time, "I guess we have to wait another three to five days."

"The body is really bad enough."

"Amputation is like this." Carvey knew what he was thinking, but the situation is different now, "I guess your duel is going to fail."

Alphonse was a little surprised: "Why?"

"He is useful to the empire now, and someone will come to pick him up in a few days." Kavi knew Mick's power well, and persuaded him, "The other party has approached me several times, and I have been stopping him all the time. It's his recovery that keeps him until now."

Alphonse doesn't understand why a German is so important to Austria: "Last time you also said that someone protected him"

Carvey made a silent gesture: "Don't ask any more, the other party is a ruthless character. Recently, work has not been going well, and he is in a very bad mood. He can do anything. If you mess with this kind of person, the result is often not very good .”

"Nora is still waiting for me to avenge her."

"I can only talk so far, and it's up to you whether you want to listen or not."

Li Ben has a title, and it was Mick who came to find him on his own initiative, hoping to exchange a lot of information for money.Mick valued this chess piece very much at first, so he wanted Carvey to save him when he was injured.

But Mick is not a fool, he can't be fooled for a while, and soon he realized that Li Ben didn't seem to have much useful information.It was nothing more than a down-and-out baron who went bankrupt in Germany and had to come to Austria to make a living.

And the first job I found seemed to be "providing intelligence."

After getting the news, Mick was disgusted with him, and even felt ashamed of himself.But as a member of the Austrian military, he couldn't just kill a Prussian nobleman for no reason, so after the amputation, Mick's choice was to let him fend for himself.

But who knows that Joseph received the news that Prussia was actively preparing for the war, and Austria also had the same intention, which was regarded as a hard-up for Li Ben.Even if this guy is really worthless, it doesn't take too much resources to guarantee his survival before the war is over.

What if it's really useful?

As long as everything that can benefit him, Mick will firmly hold it in his hands.

Thinking about Nora who left the Municipal General Hospital a week ago, in fact, Alphonse could have been discharged from the hospital a long time ago.It was only in order to get back the so-called "honor" that was taken away before that he stayed in the hospital ward for a few more days.

Now it seems that it really can't be messed up.

"Actually, a duel is just like that. It's a matter of life and death." Alphonse said, "When I think of the way the people around me looked at me back then, an unknown fire will be born in my heart, and I really can't bear it."

"How long has it been?" Carvey wrote his medical history, heard Fernand calling himself in the distance, and quickly replied, "You wait, I'll come to you after I finish the investigation here, don't worry."

"You do not understand"

"That's right, I don't know how to fight, but I know how to eat, so you should go back and open a restaurant." Kawei persuaded again, "The Roshshuart restaurant has been closed for a month, and I'm still waiting to eat your new dishes Woolen cloth."

Li Ben was considered Alphonse's heart knot. If it wasn't for Kavi and Ignatz who solved his hemorrhoids together, I'm afraid he couldn't bear the bad mood and shot Li Ben with a pistol.

However, what Kavey said just now did not completely dispel his decision to declare war with his mortal enemy. Since things did not develop in the direction he thought, everything can only be handed over to God.

The last thing Carvey needed to look at was Fernand who had been lithotripsy.

Ever since he entered the ward, the butcher has been restless: "You have found me."

"Mr. Fernan, what's the matter?" Carvey took the medical record given by the intern, flipped through two pages, and said, "You recovered well after the operation, and you should be able to leave the day before yesterday. In the ward?"

"I have something to do with you."

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Fernan looked at the students behind Karvey, and said in a low voice, "I'm a bit...can I just talk to you?"

"You should know that this is a teaching hospital." Carvey emphasized, "If it is an ordinary medical problem, they have the right and I have the obligation to let them stand by my side and listen."

Fernan was in a bit of a dilemma, because he didn't know whether he encountered a general medical problem or some other special problem, and he didn't even know if it was a problem.But watching the thing slowly swell these days, Fernan couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep, and couldn't even drink anymore.

"What's the matter?" Carvey didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, "If you don't tell me, I can leave."

"Hey, don't go, don't go."

Fernan had no choice but to cough lightly twice, and when the surroundings were not paying attention to him, he unbuttoned his jacket.

He used the hem of his clothes as a cover, leaned down and said quietly: "Look, this thing started to get bigger not long after the operation. I thought it was nothing at first, but after a long time. I don't know why. It has become what it is now.”
