【2507】All-round prevention of omissions
Medicine needs to conduct rational and scientific analysis to prove this. After many medical scientists' research, consensus in the medical circle has been reached. After removing the machine, the patient whose self-respiratory heartbeat cannot be restored, it turns out that the most important brain stem of the human brain dies and cannot be reversed by medical means, so it is called brain death.
Medical scientists have discovered again that ischemia and hypoxia can lead to brain death. If rescued in time, the brain can get blood reperfusion for a certain period of time and it is possible to restore functions and avoid brain death.
To sum up, there is a time difference between brain death. It is correct to go to the machine to rescue brain cells during rescue. If the machine has been on for a long time but the patient cannot recover his self-respiration and heartbeat, it is the brain that dies, and always the human that dies.
The argument about brain death is so back to how long is the time difference. This time difference is the cause of the collision of various opinions in society. If you cannot determine the time difference of a specific individual, you may misjudgment the patient's death.
Statistical big data cannot be classified into individuals. Some people have a longer time difference, while others have a shorter time difference. Don’t underestimate that this time difference of minute and second can really determine life and death.
To have sufficient factual arguments for brain death, we must return to the starting point. Doctors must find evidence to prove that the patient's brain is dead, rather than just looking at time to speak.
In the past, neurologists had professionalism in this regard, and were the ones who were most suitable for finding evidence to determine whether a patient was brain-death. The problem is that the problem of insufficient clinical labor is too common. In order to make up for problems such as insufficient labor and inconvenience, the international practice is to set the criteria for judging brain death. There is no need for a specialist, only a clinician, and after passing the qualification examination, you can be competent.
Some people may wonder whether non-neurologists can judge brain death.
There is no need to worry about this problem. In fact, brain death is a process, and it is a process like judging cardiac death patients. In the criteria for judging brain death, there is a rule: the cause of the patient must be clarified, and it is clear that irreversible brain damage leads to brain death.
This level requires the in-depth participation of neurosurgeons and cannot be ruled out.
Speaking of this, we can understand why Cao Yong insisted on sending his child to a specialized hospital like Fang Ze. It was obvious that he wanted to prevent omissions in all aspects. There was a team of most professional neurologists to make judgments, so as to maximize the medical inaccuracy that leads to miscalculation of the child's situation.
This answered some of Cao Zhao's suspicions, and at the same time, he heard an answer from his younger brother's words that he thought but didn't want: "Do you think this child might have had brain death at that time, right?"
"I was at the scene at the time. What could I do with the tools on hand besides flashlights and cotton swabs?" Cao Yong was amused.
Didn’t he say it at the beginning? It was very rigorous to do medical diagnosis. Although he was a doctor, he did not have a perspective, so where could he see through the child’s brain damage?
"You have to do ct, and do ct more than once." Cao Yong tapped the key points he had said again.
