Chapter 2678

Xiang Heping carefully pulled out the catheter, but was stunned to find that the catheter was broken.

what the hell! MLGBD!！

On the green grassland in director Xiang's heart, countless alpacas galloped past and crushed a lot of grass.

I've done thousands of cases of epidural anesthesia in my life. Why did I have an accident here?!

No way!

Director Xiang took the catheter and carefully observed the broken end, trying to deny his previous ideas.

But facts have proved that there is no dazzle and no mistake. If it is broken, it is broken. Xiang Heping is an old anesthesiologist for 20 or 30 years. He can't be wrong about this.

The assistant is also confused. What's the situation? Is it the new technology that director Xiang learned in DIDU? But it doesn't look like the director's state.

Just subconsciously wanted to pat a rainbow fart, he still swallowed all his words.

Because he saw director Xiang's hand trembling.

"Find director Zhang!" Director Xiang said immediately.

"Oh, good." The assistant immediately picked up his cell phone and dialed director Zhang of orthopedics.

The hospital is not big, but orthopedics is one of the largest departments. Because trauma and car accident involve some simple fracture fixation operations, orthopedics is one of the most surgical operations.

There are several directors Zhang, but at this time, the only director Zhang to look for is the orthopedic one.

It took nearly half an hour for director Zhang to drive home and turn back because he was off duty.

Seeing the situation, he and director Li of general surgery changed their positions together, local anesthesia and incision to see what happened.

Cut 3cm of skin along the neck and puncture point, blunt separate the subcutaneous tissue with tissue forceps in turn, and look for the stump of epidural catheter.

But the result is disappointing. Although we have been very careful not to touch the stump, there is no residue of epidural catheter in the skin and subcutaneous tissue.

Originally, Xiang Heping had some luck. If a trace of the broken end of the epidural catheter was left outside, it might be clamped out with pliers.

But the truth told him that it was all a dream, and all the catheters fell into the epidural cavity.

Xiang Heping was pale and sat in the back chair. It's not that he doesn't want to stand, but that his legs are a little soft.

"Director Xiang." Director Zhang of orthopedics stood up and shook his head slightly.

Others in the operating room didn't dare to speak at this time. Everyone kept silent tacitly.

"Peace." A voice with a strong local accent and familiar with his bones shouted.

"Ah, Dad, what's the matter?"

"Why don't you have an operation? I'm tired." Asked the old man.

"There's something small. Lie down first."

Hearing what the old man said, the head nurse immediately stepped forward and comforted him with warm words. She was very interested in finding a sterile sheet to cover the old man so as not to reduce the temperature too quickly.

At this time, I really don't know what to do. The head nurse added a sterile sheet to the old man.

"Director Xiang." Director Zhang of orthopedics department winked and motioned to go out and say.

Although the patient is Xiang Heping's father, some words are not good in the operating room. Once the patient is nervous, at such a big age, he will make myocardial infarction worse.

Xiang Heping nodded, tried to control his emotions, and walked out of the operating room with weak legs. At this moment, he felt that there seemed to be foreign body compression in his spinal epidural canal, which made walking a problem.

When he came to the corridor, director Zhang of orthopedics asked, "Lao Xiang, are you sure the catheter fell in?"

"Yes." Director Xiang nodded.

"How much did it fall off?"

"More than 6cm, probably like this..." director Xiang almost cried.

"That's it." Director Zhang said, "you know better than me that the epidural space is blocked and the brain is blocked, and we always pass the aseptic operation. We are not afraid of foreign bodies, and there is little possibility of nerve compression and secondary infection. Normally, there is no surgical treatment, so we should observe it conservatively."

Conservative... Xiang Heping is a little confused. More than 6cm catheters are in the epidural, so they just leave it alone?

Although he would have made this choice if he had a clear mind, how can he keep calm now. At the thought of foreign bodies, he felt uncomfortable all over.

"Old item." Director puwaikeou said, "I asked. Some students have encountered this situation."

"And then?" Xiang Heping asked hurriedly.

"Because the patient had no symptoms, he was ready to fool like this. As a result... Later, he was unlucky and explained the situation to his family. The family refused to say anything, so let's just forget it. The operation was taken out, and there was something wrong with the operation..."

This is a typical aggravation. But from another perspective, who wants to leave a medical residue in the spinal canal?

Saying this can only increase psychological panic. Director Ou of general surgery felt very boring and stopped his mouth directly.

In fact, he felt a little lucky that he shouldn't have. This is the old man of Xiang Heping family. What if he meets other patients he doesn't know? Although the operation has not been done and has nothing to do with yourself, there is always an indirect relationship.

The smell of shit is inevitable.

"Alas." Director Ou sighed and stopped talking. He is a general surgeon and has never seen an epidural catheter left in his body, let alone any complications.

Still don't talk. The more you say, the more wrong you are. Anyway, you don't know what to do.

"Lao Zhang, do you think my father will be paralyzed?" Xiang Heping asked with a sad face.

"Not in theory." Orthopaedic director Zhang began to analyze, "I think the position may have shallow hypoesthesia below the anterior superior iliac spine on both sides. It's just hypoesthesia. There should be nothing wrong."

"Xiang Heping's mind has begun to stop turning.

"This is the most optimistic analysis. If the severity is concerned, it may cause the movement of spinal nerve or the connective tissue of the catheter fibers to compress the corresponding segment of the nerve and the aggravation of previous basic diseases, leading to the increase of the disease..." Zhang said.

He said a lot, and Xiang peace's mind was almost blank. More clinical experience is useless. It's only a matter of probability whether there is a problem or no problem.

Really TMD, how can you spread it on your own head! Director Xiang kept saying this sentence in his heart.

Director Zhang found that Xiang Heping didn't listen to himself, so he simply said two words and shut up. This kind of thing still depends on the choice of the patient's family. And in front of us, not only the patient's family, but also the first responsible person, how to choose?

"Director Zhang, director Ou, you two give me a suggestion." After a long silence, director Xiang pleaded.

"Suggest..." they looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Any suggestions!
