Doctor: It's reasonable to perform surgery on yourself.

The patient's condition is very critical. There is a saying in the field of burn medicine that "burns over 60% of the area are lifeless", and Tian Ling's burns are over 80%!

Although this data was summarized in the last century, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to save this kind of extremely severe burn.

Moreover.

Putting all this aside, the biggest problem at present is the cost of treatment!

After giving the initial instructions, Xu Qiu finally had a breath, and he took this time to call the family members over.

"Doctor..."

At this time, Tian Ling's mother's voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes were filled with deep fear, as well as a glimmer of hope that could never be erased.

Xu Qiu had seen this look too many times.

However, when he faced her again, he still wanted to sigh "Life is difficult"... After a short wait, seeing that the other party was controlling his emotions, Xu Qiu said directly: "There is one thing I have to tell you, about the cost of the treatment process..."

As a doctor, saving people is the end of the matter.

However, treatment itself is not something that can be accomplished by both doctors and patients.

Among them, family members, funds, etc. are indispensable.

If the family members are unwilling to save the patient, then no matter how skilled the doctor is, there is nothing he can do.

Xu Qiu doesn't mind saving a few people for free occasionally, and he is not really short of that little money.

But the problem is that human nature cannot withstand temptation.

Once the free treatment is started, more and more people will try their best to get the qualification of "free treatment" in the future.

Let alone Xu Qiu, even if the entire Baiyun Province's finances are used as a pillar, even if the national treasury is fully opened to provide clinical medicine, this money is not enough!

"Doctor, how much does it cost?" Tian Ling's mother asked after a brief silence.

She was not weighing whether to save or not.

She only had one daughter, and she had to save her daughter even if she had to sell everything she had.

She was just worried that if the cost exceeded the limit of what she could do, if she couldn't afford it even if she sold her house and car...

Xu Qiu thought about it.

To be honest, the preoperative cost estimates of this type of treatment are basically inaccurate, and most doctors can only answer casually with a "it depends on the situation".

Because the fact is that almost no doctor can predict what will happen after the treatment begins.

Everything is based on the patient's physical indicators.

Even Xu Qiu can only roughly estimate and give a range he thinks.

The only difference is that he can almost imagine the entire treatment process and rehearse possible unexpected situations in advance, so that there may be fewer detours and fewer trial and error in the actual treatment.

"At least, it will be in the millions."

"If there are more repeated infections in the middle, this number may be around two million.

"In addition, these are just treatment costs, without adding the later rehabilitation treatment."

In short, if everything goes well, it starts at one million, but if there is a problem, it may double.

And this is just the cost of "saving lives", and the later rehabilitation of burn patients is also a lot of money...

This life is difficult to save.

But what is more difficult than treatment is money.

The only good news left now is that this is a public event, and the medical expenses are theoretically paid by the Internet addiction treatment center, but... when it comes to money, who cares about "theoretically"?

To be honest, the Internet Addiction Center would definitely prefer a one-time death compensation rather than the bottomless treatment costs for severe burns.

The hospital doesn't care about the twists and turns, nor does it care who pays.

As long as the money is received, it has nothing to do with the hospital as to how the family gets the money and whether they can get this part of the compensation from the Internet Addiction Center in the future.

"Doctor, please save my daughter, I will definitely pay this money!" Xu Qiu responded with a firm word.

...

Since the family is mentally prepared, the hospital doesn't have to worry about anything.

In the past, it might have to weigh the family's financial resources and whether it could get money from the Internet Addiction Center.

But this time the situation is actually a little special.

Because the accident was too serious, the fire was noticed by many departments, and even the top leaders issued a notice requiring Baiyun Province to make every effort to treat it.

Even several national-level top experts and academicians in the field of burns were mobilized to come to help.

The purpose is to ensure that as many people as possible can be saved and reduce the negative impact of this social event.

At 1:00 p.m., before the lunch break was over, a group of burn experts had arrived in Linhai City. These experts transferred from all over the country were dispersed to various hospitals that admitted patients to guide treatment, and the two with the highest status came to Linhai First Hospital at the same time.

No other reason, now the most seriously burned people have been sent to Linhai Hospital.

At this moment, in the meeting room of the emergency department.

Kong Lan, a surgical expert in the field of burns and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and Cheng Pingsheng, director of the Institute of Burns, have already taken their seats. Both of them are flipping through the patients recorded in the department, and their expressions are getting more and more solemn.

Both of them are authorities in the field of burns. They have been engaged in this field for at least 30 or 40 years and have saved quite a lot of patients. However, when they see these medical records, they still frown.

Difficulty in saving is one aspect.

Including the pain and cost of the treatment process, the quality of life in the later stage and psychological counseling, etc., which are things that a doctor can think of, the two see more troubles in details.

For example, during the treatment, there may be drug-resistant bacterial infections, and how to identify drug-resistant strains, etc. ...

And in this process, they have been evaluating patients with more detailed indicators to restore more functions.

For example, except for experts, no one has thought of the cooling system.

When it comes to burn patients, everyone can talk about infection and skin grafting, but few people know that summer is a "death season" that these patients need to be on guard against for life.

Their cooling system is almost completely destroyed, and the newly transplanted skin can only play the role of a "protective barrier", which only reduces the chance of infection, but there is really no way to dissipate heat!

Therefore, ordinary people can still dissipate heat through the body's own regulation, while burn patients will really be killed by heat!

If the temperature is slightly high, if they do not use external objects to actively cool down, they will suffer from heatstroke and die in a very short time!

Many people say "It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death".

But for these patients with extremely severe burns, not only is treatment a hurdle, but every day of life after recovery is a challenge.

And.

In fact, the hospital does not want to encounter such patients.

The reason is very simple. If one comes, most of the department will not be able to rest for at least a month.

The other patients in the department are fine. They have experience in handling them, but it is not easy for this patient named Tian Ling to survive.

Disfigurement and disability are certain.

Moreover, her temperature is getting higher and higher, and there is no trend of control at all. It is hard to say whether she can survive the shock period!

Seeing this, Kong Lan and Cheng Pingsheng raised their heads at the same time. After noticing each other's movements, they looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Facing such a patient, you can only leave it to fate. No matter how excellent the treatment method is, it feels a bit helpless.

Unless, you can come up with a method that exceeds the current level of burn medical research!

Thinking of this, the two turned their heads at the same time and looked at Xu Qiu who was sitting opposite.
