The Godfather of Surgery

The thrusters of Japan's Nozomi started inexplicably, and the International Space Station suddenly adjusted its posture.

The engineers at the ground control center in Houston were busy. The engineer called up the 3D structural diagram of the International Space Station on the computer and planned to use the remote control system to turn off the thrusters, but they could not be turned off, so they had to turn on another thruster to fight, so Only then can the mechanical balance be maintained and the space station be prevented from over-tilting.

The old International Space Station can't stand the toss. I don't know how many chain reactions this small accident will cause. In normal times, it may still be used for repairs, but now it is different, and a high-risk operation needs to be completed.

In the face of the so-called crisis, any loopholes will be infinitely magnified, as is the case with the International Space Station now.

Richard breathed a sigh of relief, and the space station finally stopped flipping, barely maintaining its balance, but still tilted 45 degrees.

This balance is temporary, and the reason must be found to turn off the two thrusters in order to achieve true stability.

Richard was so angry: David Hawley, help them check what happened!

Richard is really worried about his ally who can measure his height wrong, and asks David Hawley to find out the reason as soon as possible.

Richard connected to the Japanese cabin, and the astronaut looked innocent: I don't know anything, I've been resting in my sleeping bag, and I haven't touched anything.

Could it be that the snoring was too loud? The sound waves activated the thrusters? an engineer couldn't help saying.

No one knows whether the engineer is serious or deliberately making fun of him.

Richard said angrily: How is it possible, it's not a voice-activated switch, you guys conduct a remote inspection, last time they hoped that the ship leaked water, and they didn't say anything.

Fortunately, Yang Ping quickly withdrew the guide wire in advance, otherwise the guide wire would go deep into the blood vessel, these unstable factors would make the operation fail, and the failure meant that Steven lost his life.

Work with David Hawley to find the cause and shut down the thrusters together.

Richard ordered the Japanese astronauts.

——

The team of doctors in the ground control center were all in shock just now. The guide wire passed through difficulties and obstacles, crossed one fork after another, and just entered the intracranial vascular network. As they continued to penetrate, an accident suddenly occurred.

Yang Ping quickly withdrew the guide wire. This kind of withdrawal was by no means simply pulling it out. If so, the intracranial blood vessels would be severely damaged.

This kind of retreat is completely the reverse process of the guide wire advancement, but Yang Ping is familiar with the way back. When retreating, he used the fastest speed to cross countless forks and withdraw safely.

When the guide wire was completely withdrawn from the blood vessel, Johanneson clapped excitedly.

This kind of real remote surgery, once there is a problem, no one will save it, and the doctor needs to have extremely superb surgical ability and psychological quality.

For the operation to be successful, there is only one chance, and once there is a problem in the middle, there is no way to remedy it.

In conventional robotic surgery on the ground, once a problem occurs, the doctor standing by and the entire hospital can provide remedial and rescue. In the space station, there is only one doctor, Susan, who is also a general practitioner. Except for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, he does not have any other more Powerful rescue.

Is he afraid?

Massimo was still in shock, restraining his strongly fluctuating emotions, and finally found a step.

The world's No. 1 United States, the genius of Johns Hopkins, and the unrivaled Massimo in the field of global intervention.

It is even more ironic that a young Chinese doctor has surpassed him. His skill at home is orthopedic surgery. This kind of surgery is just an amateur play to cultivate his sentiments.

Johanneson knows that it is useless to talk too much: Dr. Yang is not afraid. During the operation, he is calmer than anyone, but every time he does a high-risk operation, the people watching the operation will be afraid, I am afraid, and you will be afraid, This kind of surgery drains our adrenaline.

Massimo touched his forehead, sweating, he pretended not to know. Johanneson glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, only to smile inwardly.

On the screen, the cerebral angiography image spread out like black fireworks, and the aneurysm was like a balloon, much larger than before. I don’t know how long the thin blood vessel wall can last.

Come on! He won't last until dawn, and his blood vessels will burst at any time! Yang Ping's voice sounded on the radio.

Everyone in the control center could hear it, but Jim Barca heard it most clearly.

It's expanding like a balloon, it keeps expanding! Massimo swallowed.

The balloon keeps blowing, and the end result must be an explosion.

The heart rate on the ECG monitor continues to slow down, and the myocardial depression becomes more obvious. This slight compression will cause such a big reaction. If it bursts, the compression of the blood will cause sudden death.

Steven's heart rate is still dropping!

Susan stared at the monitoring screen. The problem was not resolved, and the operation could not continue. I didn't know how long I would wait.

Hope's thrusters cannot be shut down right now, reported David Hawley.

Can't close?

At a critical time, how could such a thing happen? Richard thought for a while:

Using the emergency mechanical switch, the thrusters must be turned off, both at the same time.

The purpose of the thruster that has just been actively turned on is to balance the thruster that was accidentally started. If only one is turned off, the space station will tilt again under the action of thrust.

The Russians have passed, help them deal with it. David Hawley wanted to stay where he was.

The Russians lend a helping hand, things are much easier, and their experience is much better than the Japanese.

I've reached the Hope, and I'm about to flip the mechanical switch on the thrusters.

We work together, are you ready?

9-8-7——

OK, close!

Move the space station and regain balance. The aging International Space Station is usually tinkered with no problem. Once such an emergency occurs, problems abound.

Voltage is unstable!

The accidental tilt of the space station has just occurred, which may interfere with some old equipment in the power system, resulting in poor contact.

Why! The International Space Station is seriously aging, like a thatched hut in the wind and rain. Either air leaks here or water leaks there.

Richard was devastated: The voltage is unstable, which will cause the remote surgery system to go down. Hurry up and find out why.

David Hawley himself, an engineer, is familiar with these, after a painstaking investigation: Multiplexer-Demultiplexer (MDM), malfunctioning, one has stopped working, one is unstable.

Replace! Hurry up!

Richard now has a splitting headache. An accident has caused so many problems. To replace the MDM, he needs to go out for a spacewalk. It takes two hours to replace this thing.

The MDM weighs 23 kilograms on Earth and is only the size of a small microwave oven, but controls vital components such as the space station's radiator, solar panels and cooling circuit.

There are two such devices in space, and only one is working now. If there is a problem with this one, it may affect the safety of the astronauts' lives.

Remote investigation, the other one is just unstable in voltage, it can continue to work for at least 3 months. The ground engineer consulted the equipment log of the space station.

In case, if there is an accident on this station, and there is no backup, the people above will be in danger.

Even if you don't worry about accidents, this unstable voltage will seriously affect the operation. Once the critical time comes, the robotic arm will lose control and everything will return to zero.

I want to go out to check and repair, and I need an assistant. David Hawley decided to go out.

Let Russian friends help. Richard could only ask for help from the Russians, and the others lacked experience in going out of the cabin.

I just checked the spare parts inventory of the space station, and there are no spare parts!

Oh my God! Steven, you are so lucky.

Power failure, no MDM parts, emergency delivery takes eight hours. The engineer reported Richard anxiously.

Richard could only ask Jim Bassa for help, and Jim Bassa settled down: Is there any temporary way to keep the voltage stable, even for an hour.

I don't know, I want Dave Hawley to get out of the cabin and hope it can be repaired. Richard was not sure.

The two sides acted at the same time, let David Hawley out of the cabin for repairs, I will coordinate the emergency delivery, and I can only ask the Russians for help. They can complete the replenishment in just over three hours. We need at least eight hours, and they also have accessories.

No way, the Russian Soyuz rocket is more powerful than the Falcon 9. The Soyuz rocket was launched from Baikonur, Kazakhstan, and it only took more than three hours to dock with the International Space Station.

Ask Dr. Yang, what other substances need to be supplemented for medical treatment, and we will deliver them together. Jim Bassa will contact the Russians soon.

Yang Ping is sitting in front of the operating table of the remote surgery system. Under this voltage, the risk of surgery is greatly increased. If half of it is done, the machine will be out of control and it will be troublesome.

Ask them to get some tea and make a few cups of tea.

Yang Ping wanted to take a rest, and when they got the basic conditions for the operation ready, Steven should still be able to hold on for a few hours.

Yang Ping is really not interested in the coffee prepared by the Yankees. This kind of bitter thing is hard to drink even if it is sweetened.

Get some tea and make a few cups of tea to drink. This is Dr. Yang's habit. Old Cheng told Collins.

Tea, space city should be able to find tea, right? Collins wasn't sure.

But as long as Dr. Yang wants, it is an order.

It's better, West Lake Longjing, Anxi Tieguanyin, all are fine, don't be too bad! Old Cheng asked Collins to do it quickly.

When it comes to drinking tea, Lao Cheng is very excited. If he has a home, he will make a scene here.

Collins certainly can't find any good tea, but the police officers in suits outside should have a way, especially the FBI, and there are ways.

Drink a few cups of tea to ease the atmosphere, and when the surgical conditions are suitable, take it down in one go.

——

Dr. Yang just asked to send some tea, and a few of them want to have a tea break.

Someone whispered in Johanneson's ear.

Johanneson suddenly remembered that he didn't have the best Harney \u0026amp;amp; Sons there, he was going to give it to Dr. Yang, but he didn't bring it.

Does he still want to drink tea?

Massimo couldn't help laughing and laughing, this idleness was out of tune with the current tense atmosphere.

He was so nervous that he was sweating, and he shouted for tea.

Intervention is really his amateur field? Massimo still didn't believe it, thinking that Johanneson was deliberately mocking him.

Johanneson thought for a while and said, Strictly speaking, in the amateurs, Dr. Yang's intervention is similar to Jordan playing table tennis.

Massimo stared at Johanneson, his eyes spitting fire.

Johanneson shrugged: No way, you forced me to tell the truth.
