Many people mistakenly believe that there was no cesarean section in ancient China, but in fact there were. They often asked the maternal family members at the last critical moment whether to protect the adults or the children. When he asked the intention of cesarean section implicitly, it would only hinder the moral integrity and would not really say it.
If the maternal family said to protect the child, then immediately the fact of cesarean section.
Let's not say whether the operation can be carried out under aseptic conditions, only the hemostasis and blood transfusion are the problems. There is also how to drain the amniotic fluid. If the amniotic fluid is not handled well, the pregnant woman will surely die after embolization. Even in modern times, the mortality rate of amniotic fluid embolism is as high as 60%, let alone in ancient times?
Thinking about it, Gu Qianxue shook his head. Although she likes Zhang Jieyu very much, she still can't do more trouble because of her operation on Zhang Jieyu.
So, is there anything else besides surgery? Unfortunately, she is not a gynecologist, otherwise there must be good measures.
Not to mention Zhang Jieyu and the eunuchs of Fanxu palace, it is Xiangju and Xiangqi who are puzzled. What is the matter with Princess Qianxue, just like the evil spirit. Either frequently distracted, or do not know what to think, a while shaking his head, a frown.
Gu Qianxue suddenly had an idea, "I have a way!"
Zhang Jieyu didn't understand, "what can I do for you, princess?" In my heart, I was looking forward to it, though I couldn't believe the teenage girl in front of me.
"Madame, please bring in the doctor who has been treating you before. I want to know your exact fetal position." In ancient times, there was no color Doppler ultrasound machine. The fetal position of pregnant women depended on the hands of experienced doctors.
Zhang Jieyu was still hesitating, but Caixia, a maid in the palace behind her, urged, "Niang, you should listen to the princess. She has not heard of her ability?"
“……” Gu Qianxue is speechless. What is her ability? In the heart exclamation, the outside world does not know how to spread her.
Zhang Jieyu finally moved her heart and nodded, "you go and invite doctor Zhao to come."
Caixia got the mark and quickly walked out of the palace with Zhang Jieyu's brand. She wanted to go to the hospital.
Although medical women are called "doctors", in fact, they can't catch up with the great doctors in terms of medical skills and status. In Nanyue, men were superior to women, and women were not allowed to work in many industries. Because of the special situation in the harem, the position of medical woman was set up, but the medical skills of medical women were the most, and the apprentices were almost the same.
After a while, doctor Zhao, who is specially for Zhang Jieyu, came.
Zhao was dressed in the navy blue uniform of Taiyuan hospital. She was about 40 years old. She was thin, medium-sized, respectful and capable. "I have seen lady Jieyu and princess Qianxue."
"Get up," said Zhang Jieyu. "It's because Princess Qianxue wants to know about the situation of this palace. It's hard for Princess Qianxue to come here so late." With that, she motioned to the colorful clouds on one side and offered a rich reward.
Doctor Zhao thanks for the reward, but there is no smile on her face. Her face is full of melancholy. "Your mother is polite. It's the duty of a servant to serve her." She couldn't laugh because she knew the special situation of Zhang Jieyu. She was afraid of two lives for one corpse in this kind of fetal position.
Later, several people went into the bedroom. In addition to Caixia and Mingzhu, Zhang Jieyu's confidant, Xiangju and Xiangqi were left.
To leave Xiangju and Xiangqi is Gu Qianxue's meaning. In other words, no matter what she does, she will take them with her. They are the people sent by the emperor to watch her, and they are also a double-edged sword. On the one hand, they report her every move, every word and deed to the emperor truthfully; on the other hand, they can also serve as witnesses to remove many suspects from her mind.
Zhang Jieyu lay flat on the bed, taking off her coat and wearing only a negligible tulle.
Zhao, on the other hand, was standing by the bed, reaching out to touch Zhang Jieyu's high pregnant stomach. She felt it clockwise. For a while, the room was quiet and the needle could be heard.
About five minutes later, Zhao medical woman straight up the waist, carefully pointed out its fetal position, Gu Qianxue clearly - breech position!
According to Zhang Jieyu's situation, at this time, the fetus should be in the head position, that is, the head downward so as to facilitate the smooth production, while the breech position is just the opposite. This situation is extremely serious. If we put it in modern times, it is not ambiguous to operate immediately.
It has to be said that Gu Qianxue was in a cold sweat.
Seeing Gu Qianxue's pale face, she was relieved. After all, the legendary princess Qianxue was just a nutmeg girl. How could she trust a teenage girl?
"In view of Zhang Jieyu's situation, what measures can doctor Matthew take?" Gu Qianxue asked doctor Zhao seriously. Her voice was calm and calm. How could a teenager be tender and tender.
But this rigorous tone of voice makes people can't help but respect, "back to the princess, Ma Taiyi's medical advice in addition to ordering the empress to rest, also use moxibustion therapy."
"Moxibustion therapy?" Gu Qianxue doubts.
"Yes," said Zhao, "hot herbs are used to stimulate important acupoints in the body. The specific method is to ignite wormwood at the acupoint near the little toe to stimulate the fetus to increase the activity and eventually change the fetal position."
Gu Qianxue was slightly surprised, "this method Is it reliable? " Although her intuition told her that she was unreliable, she had experienced so many strange things that she had deep doubts about her knowledge.After struggling for a moment, Zhao finally chose to tell the truth, "go back to the princess, this method can only change a little, but I'm afraid this situation like Niangniang is..." The implication is very clear, "of course, it has also improved some."
Gu Qianxue nodded and his heart was clear. She looked at Zhang Jieyu, but she found that she was just listening quietly, tears streaming down her face, and her face looked like dead gray.
She finally knew why Zhang Jieyu still insisted on activities even in the ice and snow. Maternal activities can promote the fetal movement frequently. According to Ma Taiyi's statement and the principle of moxibustion, as long as the fetus moves frequently, the fetal position may be straightened.
It sounds reasonable, but in fact, it's the same as drinking more water for a bad cold. It's far from enough to hydrolyze your thirst.
"Zhang Jieyu, if you believe me, take a rest from today and don't go out for a walk blindly." Gu Qianxue said, "if you really give birth early, you should know the danger yourself."
"What should we do? Is this palace just waiting to die?" Zhang Jieyu put her hands on her abdomen and got up with the help of the maid in law. Then she gave a clear smile. "Well, the worst plan has been done. As long as the little prince is safe, it doesn't matter what happens to the palace."
The worst plan is to keep the small house big.
Gu Qianxue shook his head, "no, I'll teach you a set of gymnastics to see if we can turn the situation around."
"Gymnastics?" Zhang Jieyu was stunned, and Zhao's medical daughter also looked curiously at Gu Qianxue.
"Take paper and pen," Gu Qianxue said to the maiden, drawing the gymnastic posture with paper and pen, and then to Zhao Yinv, "I'll teach you another set of massage techniques. Although I'm not sure it will work, we can try it."
