The Godfather of Surgery

On the third day after the operation, Yasmeni began to try to walk upright with the help of a walker and a special brace.

The brace acts like a pair of boots, protecting the fused ankle and orthopedic arch, allowing her to walk upright and protecting the fused ankle and orthopedic arch from gravity until the bone heals.

Yasmenie had never stood up and walked, never taken a step upright in her life.

When Yasmeni was mentally prepared, Dr. Che and the nurse in charge of rehabilitation helped her stand up from the bed.

Supporting her body on trembling legs, Yasmenie stood up slowly, she couldn't believe it was real.

Due to the posture, Yasmeni felt a little dizzy, and Dr. Che told her to persevere, allowing her heart to slowly adapt to the upright circulation.

After about ten minutes, Asmeni felt a little more comfortable.

Dr. Che asked her to hold on to the walker and take the first step boldly.

Yasmeni looked at the doctors and nurses around her, and then at her own lower limbs, trying to take the first step, but her strength was a bit insufficient, and she didn't know how to take a step.

Dr. Che demonstrated three times before she mastered how to take a step, and finally took the first step trembling.

This is the first step she has taken since she was born.

It turned out that walking upright with such a wide field of vision made Yasmeni feel good instantly.

The ward thought of a burst of applause, and everyone encouraged her to keep going. As long as she took the first step, a new life would begin.

The muscle strength of both lower limbs is still not enough, and every step is very tiring and very difficult.

Asmeni took a deep breath and took another step.

One more step!

Dr. Che led the way in front, making a guiding gesture with both hands.

After adjustment and strength preparation, Yasmeni took the third step.

how do you feel?

Yang Ping asked Yasmeni.

She nodded excitedly: I can stand up and walk. You see, I really stood up.

The little girl was so excited that tears flowed down her cheeks. How many times she dreamed that she could walk upright like a normal person.

Now that the dream has really come true, Yasmenie cries louder and louder. The nurse and the interpreter stroke her back together to calm her emotions.

Yang Ping observed her gait carefully. Although her muscle strength was insufficient, her gait was still relatively good.

If you can train for about three months, the muscle strength of both lower limbs will be enhanced, and you can walk without a walker completely.

In the past, Asmeni's lower limbs only carried half of her body weight, so her lower limbs were thinner than normal and her muscle strength was also poor.

The upper limbs of normal people do not need to bear weight. Her upper limbs participate in crawling and bear the other half of the weight, so they are thicker and stronger than normal people.

This is the result of the fit of anatomy and function.

Yang Ping asked Dr. Che to teach Fei Da and Yasmeni the content of rehabilitation training during the hospitalization, so that Yasmeni can continue to carry out rehabilitation exercises after returning to Oman.

There are two organs in the human body that can be shaped, muscles and the brain, which is the medical basis for why fitness can obtain thick muscles.

Walking for the first time, Asmeni walked six steps and was already drenched in sweat.

Yang Ping asked her to rest, and she should not act too hastily, as recovery is a gradual process.

Xiao Minmin's grandmother was transferred from the CCU to the general ward of the Department of Cardiology. She saw her granddaughter taking out thirty-four needles, and she felt very complicated. The old couple began to worry about Xiao Minmin's future.

Couples in their 70s don't have much time. If Xiao Minmin continues to hand over to her father or mother, it is already impossible.

The mother has refused to accept it, and even if the law forced her to accept it, the result will not be much better than following the father.

As for the current situation of the father, if the child is handed over to him again, there is no guarantee that the next time it will not be a hundred needles.

None of the relatives were willing to take him in, so he could only find a way to send him to some welfare institutions, or ask someone to find someone willing to adopt him.

At this time, some relatives came to visit Xiao Minmin's grandma one after another. There were many people talking. Some relatives suggested that the old couple should go to the hospital for trouble. No matter what the reason was, the hospital was responsible for spending so much money. I have to bear the part at my own expense, it shouldn't be.

Some relatives even expressed their willingness to come forward, but were rejected by the old couple.

There are also relatives who testified: I was shopping for vegetables and passed by the street in front of a restaurant. I accidentally fell down. to the amount of compensation.

This relative guarantees the tickets. In the case of Grandma Minmin, if she makes a fuss with someone, she will definitely get the money.

Not only the medical expenses are free, but you can also have a sum of cash yourself.

The old couple said that people can’t be without a conscience. If they accompany their granddaughter in the hospital for treatment, and they get sick in the middle of the night, the doctor saved them.

The relative still didn't give up, and encouraged her to say that people should not be so stubborn. Now that the granddaughter's surgery has been done, there is no need to ask the hospital for anything. It’s okay to use this matter to earn a sum of money for the elderly, or to keep it for the granddaughter. Anyway, at such an age, I can’t earn money.

The relative finally confessed that there is no need for the old couple to come forward, as long as she nods, the relative asks her son to come forward to find the hospital, and then pay some activity fees according to the proportion afterwards.

The relatives said angrily, how could the hospital not be responsible for what happened to someone in the hospital?

The old couple hurriedly stopped them, they must not do this, otherwise they would not feel at ease until they died.

The relative left the ward angrily, very disappointed, and scolded the old couple, saying that they were behind the times and would not earn money if they had money.

The old couple have their own ideas. Although they have worked hard all their lives, they have never done anything immoral and unconscionable except for raising a son who is a bastard. It is impossible to do such a wicked thing.

If you do this, will any doctors dare to save people if similar things happen in the future?

It is very likely that whenever the elderly go to the hospital with their children in their arms, the hospital will avoid them and make excuses to delay the treatment.

Most of the elderly are in poor health, and many are at risk of potential sudden diseases.

By extension, in the future, restaurants, shopping malls, stations, etc., in various public places, in order to avoid taking responsibility, will put up a sign prohibiting the elderly from entering.

If the matter is further expanded, anyone who goes to a public place in the future must provide a health certificate from the hospital and sign a waiver agreement.

It's like the old man who fell to the ground and dared not help him for a reason.

The hospital saved himself, and went to blackmail the hospital for money!

What is this called?

Without a bottom line, pigs and dogs are inferior.

Is there a difference between being a human and a pig or a dog?

After the relatives left, the old couple cursed fiercely.

Cui Shukai, a six-year-old boy, came to Sanbo Hospital under the leadership of his parents. His father, Cui Xubing, heard that his son was receiving a new method to treat scoliosis, which was minimally invasive. He was very happy.

Cui Xubing asked for a month's leave from his work unit, and came to Sanbo Hospital in Nandu Province with his wife and son.

They trusted Yang Ping very much, especially the last time at Sanbo Hospital, they saw with their own eyes the affirmation of Yang Ping by the academicians of the Imperial Capital, and the couple put all their hopes of treating their son on Yang Ping.

After returning home last time, Cui Xubing did a lot of homework, searched for information about Yang Ping everywhere on the Internet, and asked local doctor relatives to check Yang Ping's information.

According to the results of the final investigation, Yang Ping, a young professor, performed more serious and complicated surgery for folded human spinal deformity than his own son.

My son's spinal deformity is just a routine operation in Professor Yang's hands.

It's just that Professor Yang considers six-year-old children and uses minimally invasive methods as much as possible without interfering with the normal growth and development of the spine, so he uses innovative techniques for treatment.

Cui Xubing's family is from Yan'an, an old revolutionary area, and they came all the way to Nandu. In order to express their gratitude, they brought some special products from their hometown, Yan'an red dates and Luochuan apples.

After going through the hospitalization procedures and settling down in the ward, he handed over the special products he brought to Head Nurse Cai, and then went to the office to find Yang Ping.

After sitting down, Yang Ping explained the details of the new technology to him, telling him that the data of the animal experiments were very gratifying, and now Cui Shukai is the first clinical trial patient of this technology.

This technique does not require fusion of the spine, and a normal functioning spine can be obtained after correction.

But any surgery has risks, especially new technologies, which are more uncertain.

Yang Ping told him the risks of the operation one by one. The biggest risk is pinhole infection, but the probability is very low.

This risk is nothing compared to a normal functioning spine.

It is much safer than surgery with a big knife.

Cui Xubing is still very familiar with scoliosis and surgery, and he expressed his willingness to accept clinical trials.

Scoliosis is divided into functional and structural. Functional scoliosis is not finalized. It is caused by certain reasons, such as incorrect posture, lumbar disc herniation, etc. Kyphoscoliosis can be corrected if the cause is corrected.

Structural scoliosis is already finalized, and structural is divided into idiopathic and congenital.

Congenital is a deformity that is present at birth.

Idiopathic, no specific exact cause has been found in medicine. Most medical terms with the word idiopathic mean that no clear cause has been found, such as idiopathic hypertension.

Most people face this kind of idiopathic scoliosis.

Generally, scoliosis within 20 degrees can be observed without special treatment. X-rays of the entire length of the spine are taken every year for measurement. If the annual increase exceeds 5 degrees, intervention treatment is required.

Conservative treatment has been proven to be effective with orthopedic braces. Wearing orthopedic braces is laborious, but effective.

There is currently no evidence to support other methods such as manipulative correction, but if you must feel effective, then it is effective, just be happy.

If the scoliosis reaches 30-40 degrees, surgical treatment needs to be considered.

Regardless of whether it is thoracic scoliosis, thoracolumbar, or lumbar spine, surgery is generally required to achieve this degree, and thoracic scoliosis will relax a little more than the latter two indications.

Surgery is generally required for thoracic curves above 40 degrees, and for thoracolumbar and lumbar scoliosis above 35 degrees.

Cui Shukai is a congenital scoliosis.

Cui Xubing still understands these basic knowledge. As for the risks of surgery, the notification of clinical trials, and the notification of ethics, he has learned about these in advance and understands them very well.

I'm signing it now!

Cui Xubing didn't want to waste Professor Yang's time.

Yang Ping told him: There is no rush, the operation will be arranged after the preoperative examination is completed, and the doctor in charge will ask the couple to sign before the operation.

Surgery for scoliosis is relatively concentrated. There are only a few front-line hospitals, including Xiehe, 301, and Nanjing Drum Tower. He has been to them all, and he has also checked relevant information on the Internet.

Cui Xubing got up, saw no one was outside, closed and locked the door of Yang Ping's office, and then secretly stuffed a bulging envelope to Yang Ping.

Thank you, Professor Yang, I will trouble you about Shukai.

Yang Ping originally wanted to decline, but Cui Xubing was very persistent: No one will see it, don't worry, no one will know, our husband and wife are sincere and sincere, thank you.

The 20,000 yuan was prepared by Cui Xubing a long time ago, and they are indeed sincerely grateful to Yang Ping.

Well, Yang Ping didn't want to push back and forth, it's pointless.

It is common for a patient to send a red envelope. Yang Ping has a standardized process, accepting the red envelope on the spot, and handing the red envelope to the head nurse after the patient leaves. The head nurse will count the amount with another doctor and record it.

The head nurse will help to deposit the money into the patient's inpatient account before the operation, and then hand over the receipt to the patient or family members after the operation --- the person who gave the red envelope.

In fact, many patients just want to ask for peace of mind when they give red envelopes. If they refuse on the spot, it will waste time to push and pull, and it will make patients or family members think wildly, such as worrying about whether the operation is not sure?

Therefore, Yang Ping usually accepts it first to reassure the patient and family members, and then follow the procedure.

Cui Xubing came out of Yang Ping's office feeling comfortable and at ease.

To give red envelopes, what you want is to be down-to-earth.

Sending out this red envelope shows that my son's illness has been relied on, and Professor Yang will definitely do his best.
