Reborn Wife Strikes Back in the 80s

Chapter 1046: Heartbeat Surgery

Guo Xiang and Xing Ming discussed how to do the operation.

"The child is too young, and the operation is very difficult." Xing Ming said, "It is necessary to use an extracorporeal circulation machine to stop the heart, otherwise it will be too difficult to do such a small heart."

Guo Xiang frowned, "Because the child is young, I think it is even more difficult to stop the heart, and perform surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass with the heart not beating to avoid myocardial ischemia and reduce the impact on heart function. It is beneficial to the recovery of cardiac function in children after surgery.”

"But it is very difficult. The heart is already so small, and it is still beating while performing surgery. How to do it?" Xing Ming said.

In many cases, cardiac surgery is performed when the heart stops beating, such as heart bypass surgery for coronary heart disease. The heart is a relatively sophisticated organ, and it is relatively complicated. There are various venous arteries.

I used to do it when my heart was beating, but it was too difficult. Later, with the extracorporeal circulation system, it was easy to perform surgery when the heart stopped beating.

However, cardiac arrest surgery is prone to complications, and there are cases in which the heart stops beating and not restarting during the operation, which is also dangerous, not to mention such a small baby.

"But the child is so young, the cardiac arrest surgery has a great impact on the recovery of her cardiopulmonary function after the operation." Guo Xiang shook his head.

"You want to do it when the heart doesn't stop beating? It's too difficult to operate. Originally, this operation was not easy, and it was even more difficult." Xing Ming frowned, "The heart is so small, a little careless child may die!"

"But we have to do a good job in the prognosis, and don't bring any worries to the child, which will affect the child's life." Guo Xiang said, "I will hold another meeting to make a good plan, me, you, Xu Wei, the anesthesiologist, etc. Hold a meeting with the relevant medical staff and discuss it carefully."

After that, Guo Xiang spent another two days discussing the operation with everyone, and where to pay attention and where to be careful.

After all, the child is still too young, and it is the first time they have performed surgery on such a small baby.

"The diameter of the vena cava in cardiopulmonary bypass was changed from 7 mm to 2 mm in diameter." Guo Xiang said, "This can effectively reduce circulating blood volume, increase hematocrit, reduce lung damage, and improve cardiac function."

Everything has to be applied to small babies.

After making a plan, Guo Xiang called the parents of the child and told them about the operation.

As for the pros and cons of off-pump surgery and non-pump surgery, I also told them and listened to their opinions.

But how do the two know this,

Do what the doctor says is good.

"The operation is still risky. If there is an accident during the operation, the child may not be able to get off the operating table." Guo Xiang said, showing the operation informed letter to the child's parents.

"Then..." The couple looked at each other, didn't expect the possibility of death after surgery?

"No doctor can guarantee that the operation will be 100% successful, and there will be some accidents. We only use instruments for inspection, and in some cases, the instruments are not clear, and the actual situation may be worse than the inspection, which may not be the case." Xiang explained.

The child's father gritted his teeth, "Let's do it, or you will die if you don't do it."

Besides, people do it for free, and they don't ask for anything else, they won't deliberately smash the operation, they don't need it.

"Okay, do it!" The child's mother also nodded.

After signing, Guo Xiang began to prepare for the operation.

The operation started the next day, and the preparations for the operation were well-prepared. Guo Xiang was the chief surgeon, Xing Ming was the first assistant, Xu Wei was the second assistant, and there were about ten other medical staff. Everyone was very nervous.

This is the first case of pulmonary valve stenosis with beating heart under cardiopulmonary bypass and repair of room defect since the hospital was built. If the operation is successful, the hospital's medical level can be further improved.

But once it fails, the reputation of the hospital will still be affected.

The child's parents waited anxiously outside the operating room.

Xing Ming opened the chest, the child is too small, and the heart is pitifully small, like an egg, trembling slightly.

"Let's start!" Guo Xiang said, and the operation began.

Tang Le also ran over, knowing that Guo Xiang was going to operate on this child, he was also very concerned, these children were taken from him, and he also hoped that every child would be able to recover and return without leaving any regrets .

At the beginning of the operation, everyone stared at Guo Xiang's hand.

The scalpel fell and slashed on the small heart. The heart was still beating, and everyone's heart was lifted.

However, Guo Xiang's expression was very calm, his hands were steady, and he was not panic at all.

Everyone admires it very much. President Guo's medical skills are really amazing.

The operation took more than two hours. The pulmonary artery correction and the repair of the atrial defect were completed. The baby's signs were still stable, and everyone was very excited.

Xing Ming did the finishing touches.

When Guo Xiang came out, the child's parents hurriedly greeted him, "Doctor, how are you?"

"The operation was a success!" Guo Xiang took off his mask and smiled.

"Thank you, thank you so much!" The couple held Guo Xiang's hand with tears in their eyes, it was great, it was great.

Guo Xiang explained some precautions after hand, and the couple nodded in response.

Guo Xiang returned to the outpatient clinic and felt very tired. The operation spirit was highly concentrated. After relaxing, the whole person felt very tired.

"Sister, hard work!" Tang Le poured a cup of tea for Guo Xiang, "Sister, you are the only person I admire most in this life, no matter what."

That's why he was willing to do things for her, not the job assigned by the state, not only to repay his gratitude, but also because he could learn things that could not be learned elsewhere, whether it was being a person or doing things.

"You still have a long life, don't jump to conclusions." Guo Xiang smiled.

In fact, the main reason is that I came from later generations, knew many opportunities, and obtained many medical skills that were only available in later generations. In fact, in later generations, there are many people who are better than myself.

"Is there any other surgery to apply for?" Guo Xiang asked.

"Yes, but some cases are still being verified. There is also an application for cleft lip and palate this year, are you still doing it?" Tang Le asked.

"Do, these can be distributed to other doctors. I don't do it myself. I mainly do serious illnesses or some complicated operations. If there is such a thing, bring it to me." Guo Xiang said.

"Okay!" Tang Le nodded.

"Sister..." Tang Le hesitated.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Guo Xiang asked after taking a sip of tea.

Tang Le blushed and summoned up his courage, "I want to marry Guo'er!"

"Now?" Guo Xiang was stunned, "Wouldn't it be killing people?"

"No, no!" Tang Le waved his hands hurriedly, his face flushed, "I just want to marry her and be together soon..."

Guo Xiang chuckled, "I can't wait like this? Guo'er graduated in just one year, so anxious? Are you afraid that she will run away?"

Tang Le smiled embarrassedly, "Well, I love her very much, I just want to be with her and see her every day!"

Guo Xiang smiled, "My mother-in-law may not agree, and neither does your brother-in-law. Don't be in a hurry, just wait another year!"

Tang Le pursed his lips, well, in fact, he was mentally prepared, but he still wanted to try it, as expected.

It's just that he and Guo'er ate the forbidden fruit early, fearing that their family would find out and criticize them, and if they wanted to get married earlier, they could be together openly.
