Lu Chen began to perform cardiac ultrasound examinations on pregnant women.

Today, his proficiency in cardiac ultrasound has reached 92.98%.

In the field of ultrasound, this level of proficiency is comparable to that of an ordinary deputy chief physician in the ultrasound department.

Even in the field of cardiac ultrasound, Lu Chen's ability is better than that of regular sonographers.

As the ultrasound probe was placed on various sections of the patient's heart, Lu Chen's frown deepened.

When people around him saw Lu Chen's nervous look, they didn't dare to express their anger.

Lu Chen carefully examined every section of the cardiac ultrasound, including left ventricular short axis, left ventricular short axis, three-chamber heart, four-chamber heart, etc.

About ten minutes later.

Lu Chen finally put down the ultrasound probe in his hand.

He raised his head slightly, and the solemn look in his eyes flashed past.

"Director Lu, what was the result?" Gu Xinyue immediately stepped forward and asked.

Because the patient was a young woman, all the men except Lu Chen and the patient's husband had stayed out of the way.

"The results are okay." Lu Chen said calmly, "Um... the patient's family members come out with me, and I will tell you about the follow-up treatment issues."

Hearing this, the pregnant woman became a little nervous instantly.

The husband on the side squeezed her hand and whispered: "Professor Lu said everything is fine, so you can rest assured."

"Yes." The pregnant woman nodded slightly, but her eyes were slightly uneasy.

However, if nothing really happened, Professor Lu would not be able to communicate with the family members alone!

…

Come to the doctor's office.

The patient's husband couldn't wait to ask: "Professor Lu, how was the result just now?"

Lu Chen shook his head slightly, "The patient's fever may not be as simple as a cold!"

"Ah? Is the problem serious?" The patient's husband looked nervous and asked quickly.

"The cardiac ultrasound I just performed on her showed vegetations on the aortic valve and tricuspid valve." Lu Chen said slowly.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Gu Xinyue beside her was shocked.

Valve vegetations, isn’t this infective endocarditis?

If this is really the case, that would be troublesome!

And it’s big trouble!

"Professor Lu, please make it simpler." The patient's husband swallowed his saliva and looked nervous.

Lu Chen paused and organized his words a little, "Last time the patient was hospitalized, you also knew about her condition and she was diagnosed with congenital heart disease."

"Yeah, I know this."

Lu Chen continued: "Congenital heart disease is actually an abnormal shunt in the deformed tract inside the heart, which can easily cause blood turbulence."

"This is like a river. Suddenly a stone blocks a certain place. The river water hits the stone and forms a vortex. The speed of the blood or river water slows down, and microorganisms in the blood are deposited to form vegetations."

"In this way, vegetations will form in the valve defect, which may induce systemic infection. This is infective endocarditis."

"What kind of creature is this? Is it serious?" What the patient's husband is most concerned about is whether the condition is critical.

Lu Chen nodded slightly, "In addition to anti-infective treatment, the vegetation is too large to be removed by conservative means, so surgical cleaning is required. Otherwise, this kind of infective endocarditis infection is difficult to Completely remove the root of the disease.”

As soon as he heard that surgery was needed, the patient's husband became silent.

After a while, he came back to his senses and looked at Lu Chen, "Professor Lu, if you don't do surgery..."

Lu Chen said slowly: "Without surgery, the infection will spread and develop into sepsis, and both the mother and fetus will be severely damaged. Moreover, this surgery needs to be done as soon as possible. The longer it is delayed, the greater the risk! Of course, surgery The risk is also very high! Even if you can’t get off the operating table, there are situations like this.”

"Thank you, Professor Lu." The patient's husband said slowly, "I will go back to discuss it and give you an answer at noon."

"Okay, as soon as possible." Lu Chen nodded slightly, "Besides, I am not a professional in ultrasound. What I just told you is all based on my ultrasound diagnosis. To be on the safe side, we will make arrangements for the patient later. A cardiac ultrasound examination in an ultrasound department, waiting for the sonographer’s final results.”

"good."

When the patient's husband heard this, he hoped for the first time that Lu Chen's judgment was wrong.

He was thinking in his mind, now that the specialty is so sophisticated, how could a cardiologist still do ultrasound?

The patient's husband walked out of the doctor's office and asked several nurses whether Lu Chen used ultrasound frequently.

The answer is always "a few times".

This made the patient's husband feel even more lucky.

However, the final outcome was destined to disappoint him.

…

The inspection was scheduled quickly.

The sonographer's final examination results were almost the same as those performed by Lu Chen himself.

The patient's ultrasound showed: congenital heart disease combined with infective endotitis, tricuspid valve vegetations, multiple aortic vegetations, moderate to severe aortic valve insufficiency, and moderate tricuspid valve regurgitation.

When he saw the result clearly, the patient's husband's last hope also dissipated.

He told his wife the final result.

All subsequent treatments must be informed to the patient himself, otherwise he will not be able to cooperate!

It is impossible to continue to hide it.

"Wife, otherwise... we don't want this child." The patient's husband said slowly, "I will do my best to operate on you and take good care of your body. We can have another baby in the future. Your body is the most important!"

It is a very difficult operation to preserve the size and size at the same time.

But if the child is abandoned, the damage to the mother will be minimal.

To put it simply, before pregnancy, although the patient had congenital heart disease, there were no symptoms at all.

After becoming pregnant, UU read www. uukanshu． net Symptoms of heart failure gradually appeared, and even infective endocarditis appeared.

This is the heart burden that children bring to the patient himself.

"No!" The patient shook his head firmly, "I want to give birth, I must give birth! If I miss this opportunity, no one knows what my body will be like in the future. It may be worse. "

"But, the risks of surgery..." The patient's husband was about to say something, but was interrupted.

"Husband, don't worry, this is the best hospital in Guanghai and one of the top hospitals in China. You have to believe in their medical skills." The woman comforted her husband in turn and touched her belly, "It's already I have been tortured so much by this little guy, and I am not willing to give up now. This is also unfair to him. "

"well……"

The patient's husband opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he swallowed it again.

As a husband and a father, it is cruel and difficult to think of giving up on anyone. ​16377/10545438
