Chapter 1003: [Lecture 1003] Another Lecture
Luo Jingming took out his cellphone from his pocket and saw that it was a call from a professor in his departnt. His eyes narrowed slightly as he said, “Professor Nie, I’m outside at the mont, attending a conference to learn.”
Hearing that it was a call from Teacher Nie, Xie Wanying listened quietly.
“Are there colleagues from other departnts in our hospital who ca to the conference to learn? Yes, Hepatobiliary Surgery sent Xie Wanying over.”
“Oh—” The sigh from Nie Jiamin on the other end of the line was quite long, as if this situation was sowhat within his expectations.
Luo Jingming told him, “She’s sitting with right now.”
“Mmm.” Nie Jiamin expressed his approval of Luo’s actions, saying, “Report back to when you return.”
Acknowledging the instructions from the other end, Luo Jingming ended the call.
Xie Wanying asked, “Is Teacher Nie interested in this lecture?”
The words from Nie Jiamin on the phone were clearly about him reporting back regarding her, not about any lecture. Considering Nie Jiamin’s overseas study and dical experience, he really looked down upon these dostic lectures. After all, the current state of clinical technology in the country is basically adapted from abroad.
Catching Senior Luo’s glance, Xie Wanying thought so too—since Teacher Nie ca from abroad, there was no need for him to co here since the technology he learned was more advanced than dostic techniques, like Senior Cao, who went abroad for several years just to specialize in foreign technology.
Why was Senior Luo attending the lecture?
To spy on the situation of colleagues and do research for the developnt of his own hospital’s pediatric surgery departnt.
If Guoxie wanted to develop pediatric surgery, they would certainly have to benchmark against the most famous Capital Pediatric Hospital dostically first.
After the applause started, the main speaker took to the stage. Expert Li and Professor Hao were about the sa age, in their forties. At this point in their careers as surgeons, they were reaching a peak, which lent a certain depth to their lecture.
“Today’s report is about pediatric liver transplants.”
Pediatric liver transplantation seems to be conducted only by Shou’er in the Capital, and apparently no other hospitals across the country. The main reason for its rarity—is it the liver source? Parents who donate livers for their children should be far more than children donating livers for their parents or spouses for each other. After all, the people who love children the most in the world are their parents.
“Our country has very few independent pediatric surgery departnts. Pediatric liver transplantation, just like adult transplantation, has high requirents for the ward conditions. Our hospital has a dedicated pediatric intensive care unit, which many general hospitals, including third-tier hospitals, lack. Only maternity and children’s health care hospitals and our hospital have this. However, it seems that recently, quite a few hospitals have beco a bit interested in specialized pediatric surgery,” said Expert Li, his gaze sweeping over the audience as if on guard against colleagues like Luo Jingming who ca to gather intelligence.
Luo Jingming lowered his head and opened his notebook to take notes.
“First of all, most adult liver transplant patients suffer from cirrhosis or liver cancer, whereas children, especially newborns and young children, often undergo transplants due to congenital hepatobiliary diseases from related donors. It is very rare for children to receive liver transplants due to liver tumors. Additionally, the post-operative rejection challenges that children face are even greater than those for adults. Therefore, pediatric intensive care units are extrely important.”
Listening to Expert Li’s advice, the audience below rustled continuously with their pens.
This ti, Xie Wanying listened more than she took notes.
“Do you have any thoughts?” Luo Jingming noticed her unusual behavior and asked.
