Nineteenth Century Medical Guide

Chapter 75 72. Prosthetic eyes and operating room
If you just look at the appearance of Earl Morazzo strolling in the courtyard now, perhaps no one would have thought that the imperial general almost died in his "ditch" just a week ago.

Fortunately, Carvey's slightly rough debridement technique rescued him, and the Earl, who was over forty years old, was once again rejuvenated.

As Ignatz said, Morazo is a very beautiful man, even at a fat age, he still maintains his youthful figure.On the tall and straight body full of muscular muscles, there is a sharp and handsome face, which is a kind of military beauty different from Hans' neutral style.

He is the cousin of the king of the empire, and he is also a general who charged into the battle. Now he is at home with leisure and wealth, and he has everything in money and status.The most important point is that he is still single, so he is definitely a good marriage partner.

"The Count had several wives."

This is a topic that Ignaz often brings up when talking about Morazo with others. Regarding love, Morazo when he was young had a rare open-mindedness among nobles.Since the wife is disappointing, it is better to end this marriage early and replace it with a new one.

It was not until he had married several young girls, until now, that the Count realized what a woman was.

So he remained single for so many years after his last wife left him.Because in Moraso's heart, among so many women over the years, only the maid named Rita has truly loved him.

"Madam left early, the Earl is too lonely."

These days, they frequently come to change their dressings, and Kavi and the housekeeper are very familiar with each other, and they often talk about the Earl.Carvey just nodded, thinking about Ignatz's overturned car last night, he became less and less interested in love and love: "How is the Earl recently? Didn't he have a fever?"

"No, it's always been fine."

"Ah That's good."

The butler chatted and talked about the earl and his new love who were walking in the garden outside the house: "The lady-to-be and the queen look so much alike, no wonder the earl is fascinated by her."

queen?

how does it sound weird
Carvey sat on the sofa and tasted the afternoon tea specially prepared for him. While eating, he looked at the wedding invitation in his hand: "It turns out that the Earl is going to get married soon, but will it be inconvenient for me to come here?"

"It's inconvenient." The butler said with a smile, "This is the sixth marriage of the Earl. It won't be too extravagant. They are all from our own family. Mr. Carvey is a lifesaver. Please come here."

"Oh, definitely."

The wedding banquet was scheduled for five days later, which was definitely a flash marriage, but judging from the earl's tone and demeanor when he introduced it, it seemed that the love between the two had existed for a long time.

"During the time I was studying in Bavaria, I foolishly fell in love with a girl named Mariana and couldn't help myself."

Morazo looked at the woman beside him, held her hand tightly, and unreservedly narrated his love: "Maybe I was too exaggerated at the time, she didn't take a fancy to me and married far away Sicily. Knowing that she chose someone else, my heart was always aching, this feeling is amazing."

wonderful?

Carvey really couldn't compare the feeling of a heart attack with the wonder, but out of politeness, he still had to listen quietly to the two of them.

Mariana is slender, with long black hair, and should be about 25 or six years old.She didn't have any eye-catching accessories on her body, and she was wearing some ordinary shawls and skirts. She had been sitting beside Morazo, very quiet: "That was a wrong decision made by my father, and they are all past events that don't need to be mentioned anymore. "

"Yes, don't mention it any more."

Mariana changed her sitting position a little bit, and tidied up her skirt along the way. She didn't have the shyness of a young woman. Like the hostess here, she looked at Kavi, an outsider: "Mr. Kavi is so young at such a young age." Superb medical skills, I really want to thank you for saving Franz's life."

Carvey smiled and agreed: "It should be."

"Change your dressing, today should be the last time." Moraso didn't pay much attention. He lay down on the sofa and took off his pants, revealing the groin that was still wrapped with a thick bandage. The days of split lungs are finally coming to an end."

Moraso is very grateful to Kawei for saving his life.

There is no need to notify or make an appointment to enter the house. The whole process of changing the dressing will be picked up by a private carriage. As long as Kawei is willing, he can stay at the Earl's house to eat, take a bath, and sleep at any time, just like his own people.So Carvey can also carry forward his work habits wantonly, but today is a little different.

"Mr. Carvey, Mariana is my fiancee, it's all right."

Before the change, it was Kawei who decided to change the medicine.Except for the first debridement, Ignatz, Bergett, the old housekeeper, and even his own sister Elena had to avoid it when the dressing was changed several times afterwards.

But now, Moraso left the woman in the living room with a single sentence, a treatment that no one has ever experienced.

It is impossible for Carvey to use the norms of the 21st century to restrain people in the 19th century. Family avoidance is just a habit of daily work, but from this, we can deeply feel the status of Mariana in Morazo's mind.

"How is the wound?"

"Well, thanks to the Earl's strong body, the wound has recovered very well."【1】

Carvey gently pressed the skin around the wound with his cleansed fingers, reconfirming that there were no potential abscesses beneath the heavily pigmented skin. 【2】

He didn't use alcohol this time, and just changed into a clean bandage to end today's work: "There is no need to change it again, after two or three days, the Earl will be able to live normally after removing the bandage himself."

"Actually, I feel better now."

"Let's wait another two days." Carvey suggested, "I told you before that you can't bear weight, and you can't participate in heavy physical labor. Did the Earl remember it?"

"Remember, remember, if you do this, you will definitely relapse." Morazo lifted his pants, in a very good mood, picked up the "Daily" at hand and said to his beloved woman, "Look at the headlines of the daily , Now Mr. Carvey is a big hit in the surgical field, even Ignatz is overwhelmed by him."

Upon hearing this, Carvey immediately explained: "Master Earl, how can I compare to Mr. Ignatz."

"You are still humble when you come to me." Moraso stood up, patted his groin with his right hand, and said with a smile, "The wounds have been healed by you, what can't be compared, in my mind, you can be compared. Besides, so many newspapers in Vienna are saying that if Ignatz has any opinions, let him go to the newspaper to make a theory."

The speaker has no intention, but the listener does. Mariana is very interested in surgery: "Will Mr. Carvey also amputate?"

Carvey nodded: "Amputation is a relatively rudimentary operation. I saw my father do it when I was a child. As long as the main blood vessels and the flaps used for embedding are well controlled, this operation can be done well."

"His famous operation was cesarean section." Moraso suddenly mentioned.

"Just cut open the stomach and take out the child?"

"Correct."

"Too cruel."

"Mr. Carvey just had one done last night, and the operation was quite successful."

Mariana took the newspaper that Moraso handed over, glanced at it casually, still sighed, and said disappointedly: "Surgery always cuts off the useless or bad things, has Mr. Carvey considered letting him What was lost grows back."

"This is a bit difficult." Carvey suggested, "If the limb is disabled after amputation, we will provide artificial limbs."

"Prosthetics?" Mariana asked, "Does it mean that they can be attached to broken limbs?"

The other party was the count's wife-to-be, so Carvey couldn't be negligent, and quickly recommended some of Ignatz's masterpieces: "There are many types of prosthetics in the Municipal General Hospital, including upper limbs, lower limbs, prosthetic eyes, nose covers, and earmuffs"【3 】

"Eyes too?"

"Yes, various colors,"

"Any amber ones?"

"Sure, left eye or right eye?"

"Right eye."

Carvey wrote down these requirements, and made a circle with his fingers, "How big is it, about the size of No. 1, and the size of No. 2 will be a little bigger."

"It's too big." Mariana pinched her fingertips and said, "I guess it's only about this little."

Carvey felt strange: "Is it a child?"

"It has been with me for so many years, but it is still a child in my heart." Mariana said that she was emotional, and couldn't help picking up a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes gently. Left front foot."

forefoot? ? ?

Carvey looked at the length of about 10cm measured by her hand, and finally knew who received the prosthetic eye: "We are a hospital for saving lives, and there are really no artificial limbs for pets."

After dawdling until 3 p.m., he finally bid farewell to Moraso and returned to the embrace of the hospital.

After the operation last night, Carvey could clearly feel the changes in his surrounding vision.

Standing on the street, someone would recognize me and come forward to inquire about some surgical matters.And it became even more obvious when he entered the hospital. Some people who didn't pay attention to him before would rarely put on a smiling face after seeing him, and greet him enthusiastically like others.

Kavi doesn't like socializing at all, it's better to be quiet, but the current situation can't be decided by him.

"Kavi, congratulations." There was a crisp sound of heels hitting the ground behind him, "Hey! Why are you walking in such a hurry?"

Of course, Kawei didn't want to leave in such a hurry, but there was no way, because the person behind him was Elena who was still here and left home in a fit of anger last night.It wasn't until he was completely stopped that Carvey reluctantly opened his mouth: "Why did the teacher come to school today, don't you stay at home to rest more?"

"Break? Why rest? I need to go to work."

Elena also thought of a good way to relieve her distress: "You have caused such a big incident, Mr. Laszlo came here in the morning, hoping to expand the ward for the surgery department as soon as possible. Alas, in this way, the surgery department will have to close Man, can I, the director of the personnel department, not come?"

Carvey rolled his eyes. The couple are very similar in this point, another workaholic: "Since I met the teacher, I have something to discuss with you."

Alina walked straight to the third ward: "Tell me something, I'm going to the surgery right now, is Ignatz there?"

Carvey didn't know how to answer.

The matter has been exposed. In theory, Ignatz should restrain himself a little. Staying in the hospital and reflecting on it is the way to regain trust.Besides, there will be a special abdominal operation at night, and he will also be on stage with him, so he probably won't play this kind of tricks again.

But there are no absolutes in the world, so he made a compromise: "I don't know too well, I should be here."

Ignaz didn't run away this time, and sat quietly in his office seat, looking at the "Practical Abdominal Surgery Atlas" in his hand, which is considered the most available abdominal surgery book in Austria.

When Elena knocked on the door and walked in, he was not surprised, as if he knew she would go back to work in the hospital.

Like old colleagues who have known each other for a long time, the two exchanged their views on the expansion of the hospital: "At that time, there will be a fourth ward, which will be built next to the third ward. Will you move or the obstetrics department will move?" ?”

"Let's move. Their hands are full of pregnant women and newborn babies. It's very inconvenient to move."

"Okay, surgery move" Elena wrote down this sentence in a small notebook, and said at the same time, "Then your dissection room will also have to be moved, including the corpses stored in the antiseptic water tank in the dissection room, and all of you. The books, notes, and messy equipment all have to be moved!"

This is a big headache to hear, and Ignatz is no exception, but his attitude is very tactful, and his tone is not strong: "You have to give me someone."

"I knew you were short of people, so the list of interns for the new semester has come out." Alina took advantage of the situation and handed over her second purpose for coming here, "Let's accept people, the surgery that was agreed at the beginning needs to be recruited every year 3-4 interns, we are the teaching hospital of the medical school next door."

"Okay, leave the list, I will take a look at it."

Ignatz was exceptionally submissive today, and he didn't have a trace of temper during the conversation. Counting from the time Elena entered the door, he never said a word to his wife's request.

"I came to the third ward just for this matter. If the surgeon agrees, I will leave first."

"Wait, Teacher Alina!" Seeing that she was about to leave, Carvey popped up suddenly, but not for Ignatz, but for the hospital, "Since you are talking about the expansion of the campus, I I do have a suggestion."

"What advice?"

"Advice to make money, make money for surgery, and make money for hospitals."

"Make money? How do you make money?"

"Move the operating theater back to the hospital." Carvey's idea always catches people's eyes. "Britain and France are big medical countries, and their operating theater is built directly inside the hospital without division. Those who want to see it themselves Buy a ticket and go to the hospital to see it, and don’t come if you don’t want to see it.”

"You mean we handle the ticketing ourselves?"

"It's not just ticketing, but also the host and the cleaning staff." Carvey suggested, "Our surgeons and patients are the main body of the surgical theater. It's too unfair for the theater to earn so much profit just for a venue fair."

Alina was a little worried: "What if there aren't many people watching the show?"

"As long as the teacher and I are here, we don't have to worry about the surgery tickets being sold out."
