"Are you doing oxygen therapy?" Zhou Yuan asked with a sinking face.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a disease of unknown origin characterized by diffuse alveolitis and structural disturbances of the alveoli leading to interstitial fibrosis of the lungs.

After idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, it will cause dyspnea, cough, and later respiratory failure and right ventricular failure.

According to Chu Chu's previous statement, Chu Chu's mother has reached the middle and end stages, and the only treatment is a lung transplant.

However, this lung disease is more common in older men who smoke, and women in their thirties and forties are rare.

"I'm doing oxygen therapy, but the effect is not very significant. Lu Chenxi nodded.

"What about pirfenidone and nintedanib?".

This is a commonly used drug in the international fight against idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, both drugs can only delay the decline of lung function, can not stop the development of the disease, the biggest effect is nothing more than hanging life and other lung sources.

"Always using it. In order to hang Chu Chu's mother's life, Chu Chu's father worked hard to make money, and his restaurant was busy from early morning to late at night, all by himself, and he never rested. Speaking of this, Lu Chenxi felt a little sympathetic.

"What about the lung source?" Zhou Yuan asked.

"Too many people are waiting for their lungs. Not to mention the difficulty of lung transplantation, there is not even a legal source of lungs... Such a cute child, if he didn't have a mother at such a young age, he would definitely be ridiculed by other children, right?" Lu Chenxi said, her eyes a little moist.

Zhou Yuan also lowered his head, and his mood was a little low.

The reason why lung transplantation is difficult is not only because of the low success rate and high mortality rate, but also because there is no waiting for a lung source.

At least 10,000 patients in country Z need lung transplants every year, but only about 200 cases are performed every year, and countless lives that could have been saved have lost their chance of survival.

In terms of hospitals, only 36 hospitals in Kankan are qualified for lung transplantation, and only half of these hospitals have actually carried out lung transplant surgery.

Because this is a surgery that requires the hospital to pay for it, it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, consumable, and the success rate is low, and it requires the close cooperation of a team including surgeons, respiratory surgeons, anesthesiologists, ICU doctors, etc., which is thankless.

Among them, the main one is the low success rate, which has undermined the confidence of many hospitals to perform lung transplant surgery.

"How long can the junior mother last?" Zhou Yuan said.

"At most... a month ..."

Zhou Yuan was silent for a long time, and finally said: "If you wait for the source of the lungs, contact me, I can help." "

Lu Chenxi's eyes flashed with surprise.

However, considering that the difficulty of lung transplantation is too high, only 36 of the countless tertiary hospitals can obtain lung transplant qualifications, and the requirements for doctors can be imagined.

It can be said that unless you are a one-legged doctor who specializes in lung transplantation, you will not dare to undergo lung transplantation!

So, she didn't think about the main knife, she just thought that she would help with stitching and stopping bleeding.

"I hope she can wait for the source of the lungs..."Lu Chenxi clasped her hands together.

After a while, Chu Chu came back with Sun Meng.

The little girl was still holding candy in her arms, jumped next to Lu Chenxi, and gave Lu Chenxi a few candies.

"Thank you, Chuchu. "

Lu Chenxi touched Chu Chu's head.

The latter grinned and ran to Zhou Yuan's side again, leaving five pieces of candy in his hand at the end.

"Brother, stretch out your hand!" Hatsuchu ordered.

Zhou Yuan stretched out with a smile.

She counted five and gave Zhou Yuan two, hesitated for a moment, and gave Zhou Yuan another one.

"Okay!" Chu Chu put Zhou Yuan's hand together and said contentedly.

Several people held back their tears and looked at Chu Chu, who was playing with the candy in his hand.

"Alright, let's go back. Zhou Yuan finally said.

Before parting, Zhou Yuan stopped Lu Chenxi again, "Remember, you must contact me then!"

Chu Chu, who was holding Lu Chenxi's little hand, broke free and rushed towards Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan hurriedly squatted down and hugged Chu Chu.

"Brother Zhou Yuan, don't tell my sister about them, I'll secretly give you another one!".

As he spoke, Chu Chu quickly put his little hand into Zhou Yuan's hand, put down a candy, and ran away quickly.

On the return trip, Zhou Yuan kept clenching his fists and was silent.

"What's wrong with you?" asked Sun Meng, who rarely saw Zhou Yuan so sad.

Zhou Yuan didn't speak, spread out his hand, and there was a candy of red candy paper in his palm.

Sun Meng was stunned for a moment, biting her lip, and couldn't speak.

After driving for a short time, the two suddenly found that the road in front of them was half blocked, and several cars were parked there, and a large group of people were still around.

Sun Meng slowly slowed down, preparing to pass by.

Suddenly, desperate and anxious cries came from outside the car window.

"Is there a doctor?

"Is there a doctor here?

Zhou Yuan and Sun Meng glanced at each other, the latter immediately stepped on the brakes, and Zhou Yuan quickly opened the car door and rushed over.

"Get out of the way, I'm a doctor!".

Zhou Yuan shouted and squeezed into the crowd.
