Chapter 3344: Resurrection from the dead and new life
Immediately, with a light and professional attitude, the circulating nurse firmly placed the stainless steel tray carrying the patient's heart on the instrument rack next to the operating table.
The surgeon in charge had a sharp gaze and gave instructions to the second and third assistants beside him: "You guys come and clean the chest cavity."
The second assistant and the third assistant heard the sound, immediately nodded in agreement, then leaned down and began to perform the task busily, every movement seemed orderly.
The surgeon turned around and left the operating table, walked calmly to the instrument rack, faced the camera, and said in a calm and powerful voice: "Dear students, please look, this is the heart of the patient with severe heart failure in front of us.
We can clearly see that the overall volume of this heart is extremely large, almost twice or even three times that of a normal heart."
"Next, we will perform the incision." The chief surgeon said, picking up the scalpel and steadily cutting away at the huge heart. However, the entire cutting process was extremely difficult, even with a sharp scalpel.
It seems that he is powerless in front of this tough heart.
"As you can see, the cutting process is so laborious, which shows that the myocardial tissue has begun to fibrosis, resulting in a significant decrease in the elasticity and contractility of the myocardium." The surgeon explained, his tone revealing a deep understanding of the condition.
"Fibrosis is an important pathological process in the progression of heart failure. It is closely related to the apoptosis and necrosis of myocardial cells." The surgeon continued to analyze in depth, and every word was full of medical rigor and precision.
"Change the electrosurgical knife." The surgeon in charge gave the instruction decisively. Immediately, I changed the electrosurgical knife and continued to cut the heart. As a wisp of green smoke curled up, the huge heart was finally cut open smoothly.
, revealing the internal human structure.
The chief surgeon showed a satisfied smile and introduced to the camera again: "Now, you can observe the patient's heart condition more intuitively. As you can see, the myocardium is very thick and thick, like a piece of beef tendon.
That kind of hypertrophy may be a compensatory response by the heart to maintain function. However, if things go on like this, it will inevitably lead to an increase in myocardial oxygen consumption and a further deterioration of cardiac function."
In the operating room, the surgeon had not finished dissecting and displaying the heart. I turned around and returned to the operating table, preparing to proceed with the previous step of the smart bionic artificial heart implantation surgery.
After introducing those, the chief surgeon stopped what he was doing, glanced at the cut heart in the tray, and then said to an assistant next to him: "It's broken, take that heart out and show it to the patient's family."
.”
The surgeon in charge stared at the tablet computer intently, slid his fingers across it, and pressed the start button first. Suddenly, the heart in the patient's body stopped beating rapidly, and every beat was full of power.
, like the drumbeat of life, regular but weak.
That was not only a miracle of medicine, but also the worst interpretation of the power and tenacity of life. At that moment, I seemed to break free from the hands of death, come back to life, and regain a new life.
I pointed at the blood clots and said softly: "Those are the thrombi of the coronary arteries. You can't see that the coronary arteries in the heart are full of thrombus, which means that the heart's blood supply capacity is not very poor."
, which is also one of the important causes of heart failure."
Then, the surgeon pointed out the obvious enlargement of the patient's ventricles, especially the right ventricle, which is twice or even eight times the size of the abnormal heart. That situation means that the systolic function of the heart is greatly reduced, and the pump pumps out during each contraction.
The amount of blood will also increase slightly.
This was the first time we saw the human heart in such a turbid manner, and witnessed with our own eyes the process of heart removal and dissection.
Doing so will also not help strengthen the trust and communication between doctors and patients, and improve our understanding of surgical results and pathological diagnosis."
In the observation room, these bosses were also deeply moved by that scene. We applauded involuntarily, with dim smiles blooming on our faces. We knew that at that moment, we had witnessed the miracle of life with our own eyes.
Seeing that scene, Mr. Li couldn't help but wonder: "Does the cut heart need to be shown to the patient's family?" I couldn't help but ask.
That doesn't help erode our trust in the work of doctors.
Wu Sizhi smiled and explained: "That is your normal practice. Letting the patient's family see the cut specimen with their own eyes will not allow us to understand the patient's condition more intuitively, and at the same time, it can also confirm whether the patient's tissue was successfully removed during the operation.
After half an hour of effortless operation, the artificial heart implantation operation was finally completed successfully.
It was a fictional scene in a movie and TV series, and it was also a beautified picture on the Internet. It was a low-definition and close-up teaching video inside the hospital. It was so real that it was shocking.
Under the operating table, this patient is about to get a new life thanks to the intelligent bionic artificial heart, and my life will shine again at that moment.
The artificial heart looks quite similar to a real heart, but if you look closely, you will find that its surface is covered with a layer of delicate bionic material, and inside it is a series of sophisticated mechanical and electronic components.
Next, is the most critical link of blood vessel connection. The surgeon needs to ensure that the blood vessels of the artificial heart are perfectly connected with the patient's blood vessels to ensure that they work abnormally. That process requires extremely fine precision and patience. The surgeon is concentrating on the operation.
Every movement seemed so unfamiliar and precise.
I nodded slightly to the assistant next to me, who immediately took action, holding a plug in his hand, and accurately inserted it into the interface at the bottom of the smart bionic artificial heart in the patient's body. Everything was ready, and the assistant nodded to the surgeon, indicating that it was not connected yet.
success.
Moreover, it is also an insult to the patients and their families. After all, it is a heart and a special organ. We should not have the full right to know.
The chief surgeon carefully took over the artificial heart and performed the implantation operation. I first created a suitable space in the patient's chest, and then placed the artificial heart into it.
The assistant took out the damaged smart bionic artificial heart from the sterile instrument tray and handed it to the chief surgeon.
The surgeon breathed a sigh of relief, with a satisfied smile on his face. I patted the newly implanted heart hard, and then said to the camera: "It's broken. The smart bionic artificial heart has not been successfully implanted yet."
Enter the patient's body. Next, you will activate it and expect it to glow with vitality."
Here, the surgeon also noticed a problem with the heart valves. Both the heptacuspid and octocuspid valves were apparently normal, which may have aggravated the symptoms of heart failure.
What was even more shocking was that when the surgeon slashed the coronary arteries on the surface of the patient's heart, a small amount of white blood clots appeared on the outside.
Fortunately, without the assistance of the intelligent less-tentacled surgical robot, the entire vascular anastomosis process went normally and smoothly. The surgeon and the assistant only need to connect the blood vessels that need to be anastomotic, and the robot will quickly and accurately complete the anastomosis work. Then
This not only slightly improves the surgical efficiency, but also ensures the perfect anastomosis effect.
Seeing that scene, the faces of the entire surgical team were filled with smiles.
After listening to Wu Sizhi's explanation, everyone present nodded in agreement.
"Yes." The assistant responded, carefully picked up the tray and walked out of the operating room.
