Taking the child in front of you, you said that the family did not understand the doctor's treatment plan and directly asked someone if they needed to donate bone marrow. Do you think the parents are in a hurry to donate to the child? You are overthinking. The doctor is clinically
I have watched too many ethics dramas.
You may also know that even if parents love their children very much, they must at least make some plans for their children. For example, do the parents need to pay for the children’s subsequent treatment? How can parents continue to raise their children if they become weak after donation? These are practical problems that normal parents all have.
You need to think carefully before making a decision. Besides, everyone has good intentions, and ordinary people will definitely have concerns for the sake of the donor. This is human nature.
These people can know the benefits of bone marrow transplantation to patients, and they must also know the risks of bone marrow transplantation to donors. As a result, they rush to ask doctors to perform bone marrow transplantation. It is conceivable that it goes against people's instinctive reaction.
A question mark. If you look carefully, you will find that the marriage relationship in this kind of family is generally unequal. The one who has been anxious must have thought about it and asked the other party to donate. Or he thought that he could donate.
For other people, it is impossible for him/her to donate by himself/herself.
When the internal medicine students said this, several surgical students suddenly understood what it meant.
"Who is asking this in a hurry? Is it the child's father or the child's mother?" asked classmate Wei Shangquan.
"I don't think they think they need to donate." Zhao Zhaowei and Zhang Desheng shook their heads.
"How do you know?"
"Do they need to make a phone call if they want to donate on their own? One phone call after another, all to mobilize their family members to come to the hospital for examination."
"Hey, do they know that if this donation is made, the child will have no siblings? The probability of a successful match between the parents and the child is the highest, maybe 50%."
"Do you think they don't know? They know that their blood type is different from this child's. So they think they won't be the first in line."
Classmate Wei touched his chest: "I think about this-"
"Don't worry," the two internal medicine classmates said sadly to the surgical classmates, "We can foresee that this family will definitely make a noise in the hospital next."
Classmate Pan Shihua couldn't help but add a scientific comment: "You need to educate these parents in advance. Hematopoietic stem cell matching does not depend on blood type."
The official scientific name of bone marrow transplantation has now been changed to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. According to the source, it can be divided into bone marrow transplantation, peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and umbilical cord blood transplantation. Bone marrow transplantation has become a category of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. It is just a word of mouth and habit among ordinary people.
It has not been changed for the time being, so it continues to be called bone marrow transplantation. From the beginning, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was only for bone marrow transplantation, and the matching was not based on blood type, but mainly on leukocyte antigen HLA.
As mentioned before, the most fearful thing about transplantation is rejection. Rejection is a natural attack by the human body’s immune system on foreign matter that enters the body. Since the human immune system is not very intelligent, it can only analyze whether it is a foreign matter or not. It cannot analyze it.
Whether a foreign body is good or bad, foreign bodies will be attacked indiscriminately. Because of this, whether it is a disease or a doctor wants to implant a foreign body into the human body, the human immune system must first recognize the foreign body. HLA can be regarded as a human immune system to determine whether it is
