Chapter 838

The next day, Xu Wei took his father to the hospital for a detailed examination. Guo Xiang took a good look at the checklists and nodded, "intervention treatment should be possible."

"That's great!" Xu Wei was overjoyed and didn't think he could really do it.

"Then prepare for interventional therapy." Guo Xiang said.

I called Dr. Xing Ming. Although he won't, he is still a cardiothoracic surgeon. He can be an assistant. By the way, he can learn. Maybe he can treat alone in the future.

Xu Wei also applied to enter the operating room to watch. He was very curious.

When everything is ready, we should strictly abide by various disinfection procedures like ordinary surgery.

Xu's father was lying on the operating bed. Guo Xiang asked the anesthesiologist to give him local anesthesia.

Interventional therapy only needs local anesthesia, not general anesthesia, which reduces the risk of general anesthesia in the elderly.

In front of me is an X-ray machine with a monitoring screen on the side. From the screen, you can see how the catheter enters the blood vessels of the human body.

Make a small incision of a few millimeters at the femoral artery of the leg, and then insert the catheter through the incision.

People who see it for the first time may be shocked. Can they put things into their blood vessels? Doesn't that hurt?

The conduit is a bit like a wire. It looks scary.

From the screen, you can see that the catheter goes into the blood vessel bit by bit and slowly to the heart.

While staring at the screen, Guo Xiang sent the catheter in her hand. In fact, she has perspective to directly see the body, but now she is in treatment. Naturally, she should follow the formal method. Sometimes she will look inside by herself. After all, it is more intuitive to look directly.

Before the catheter reaches the coronary artery of the heart, it has been checked to know which is the stenosis artery, and the contrast agent is injected into the blood vessel. All aspects of blood flow can be seen under the X-ray machine to know the specific location.

When the catheter reached the target, Guo Xiang moved his hand and saw a thinner line in the catheter, walking into the blood vessel. Then she pressed something. The line was held up like an umbrella.

It turned out that it was not a line, or a very thin stent, but it was bound at the beginning. As soon as it was opened, the narrow blood vessels were propped up, and it was obvious that the blood flow increased.

In fact, after interventional therapy, it is used in many aspects, such as liver cancer, hysteromyoma and thrombosis.

In the case of thrombus, the equipment in the catheter is different. It will stretch out a line and open like a pliers to crush the thrombus, and then stretch out a straw on the side to suck away the crushed thrombus, so as to clean up the vascular obstruction.

It's hard to imagine that there are so many things in the catheter with only a few meters, so we should use microscopy and imaging equipment, otherwise we can't see it or do it.

The stent in the coronary artery was braced, and the thin line inside retracted. Then Guo Xiang slowly pulled out the catheter and made another place.

A total of two supports were placed this time.

Guo Xiang was relieved when he finished. In fact, he hadn't done it for a long time. Fortunately, his hands are not rusty.

After that, the incision is only a small wound, which is completely different from open chest surgery, so most people can't stand it.

Xing Ming and Xu Wei looked at Guo Xiang with admiration. President Guo really didn't brag. She really can do it.

They all sweated for her just now.

Although it's simple, they all know that it's not easy. Such a thin blood vessel and such a long catheter have to extend into it, but also into the blood vessels of the heart. The heart is still beating. In case of bad operation, they can't imagine the consequences.

"Can be sent to the ward." Guo Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. "You should stay in bed for 24 hours and can't move. The vascular sheath should be kept for 6 to 12 hours. Don't pull it out casually. After 12 hours, you should press and wrap it for 24 hours. Sandbags are pressed to stop bleeding. This leg can't move..."

Because it is the femoral artery, if it is not pressurized to stop bleeding, it is likely that the blood will not stop flowing out, and the consequences will be very serious.

Then Guo Xiang said some postoperative matters, such as adding 1000 to 1500 ml of rehydration. Because the blood is filled with contrast agent, only rehydration can accelerate metabolism.

There are anticoagulant hemostasis, pay attention to light diet and so on.

"When can I get up?" Xu Wei asked.

"You can move 24 to 48 hours after operation, but you'd better just stay in bed and walk slowly when you fully recover your strength. At least stay in hospital for more than half a month. " Guo Xiang said.

"Then ask for leave." Xu Fu said.

Because it was local anesthesia, he was awake.

"Ask your mother to help you. After all the operations, you will certainly be able to take leave. The unit will not be so unreasonable. Besides, you are about to retire, and they will not deliberately quarrel with you." Xu Wei said, "it's important for your body now. Don't worry about the rest."

Xu's father nodded. I didn't expect that he had been cured for so long?

"But in the future, we should pay attention to rest, don't do heavy physical work, have a light diet, less oil and salt, and live a regular life. People who do stents have about one percent chance of thrombosis in the future. They should take aspirin for one year to prevent... "Guo Xiang said.

"Yes, I will pay attention to all these." Xu Wei nodded. Just let your family pay more attention to what happened after the operation. It all depends on yourself.

Xu's mother was already waiting outside the operating room, worried that something might happen.

It's strange to see my wife come out or awake. Is she in such a good state?

"The treatment is very successful. Don't worry, mom. I'll tell you later." Xu Wei said.

Xu's mother was very happy, "thank you, thank President Guo!" Now they know that President Guo is really capable.

"You're welcome." Guo Xiang smiles.

When he returned to the ward, Xu's father also lamented that the hospital was really good. He was cured after such a long illness, and the conditions of the ward were good, like a hotel.

Because there are few patients now, he lives between two people, and he is also alone, like a private room.

Everywhere is clean and tidy. The nurses have a good attitude. They can't compare with the public.

There are too few patients now.

He is a little worried about Guo Xiang.

"Dad, now you know I didn't lie to you?" Xu Wei said.

"It's good here, but can you really get reuse here? I don't see many patients. " Xu Fu said.

"Dad, that's because many people don't know this hospital, and many people, like you, don't believe in the good here, so we need to publicize and advertise now. If more people are cured in the future, more patients will come. We won't be afraid to develop at that time..." Xu Wei said.

"Yes, I think the doctors and nurses here are so good that the patients will feel better when they come to see a doctor. It's not like that public hospital. It seems that they owe them 800 yuan..." Xu's mother also said.

"Isn't it cheap to cure this disease today?" Asked Xu Fu.

"About a few thousand dollars." Xu Wei said, "those equipment are imported, and the supports are through the mouth, as well as drugs. I have to live in the hospital for so long..."

"Well, then don't we take advantage of it?" Xu's father feels a little sorry. Thousands, not hundreds of dollars.

"President Guo can run such a big hospital without this money, so we have to cooperate with her to publicize it, so that more people can know and benefit from this treatment!" Xu Wei said.
