Half an hour later, Zhou Can finished treating the patient’s other four coronary segments with lesions.
During the procedure, he acquired a new skill.
In the past, whether it was inserting a stent or a metal coil, the most he could do was accurately place it in the intended blood vessel or tissue location.
Just now, while operating, he could clearly feel the stent expanding optimally.
Inserting a stent involves overing puncture, guiding the wire from the femoral artery to the heart’s major vessels, passing through the diseased segment, and precisely placing the stent, along with one extremely important technical parameter.
That is the choice of size and length for the stent.
Usually, based on different vascular segments, doctors can choose the appropriate vascular stent based on their surgical experience.
Choosing too large a stent can easily cause the vessel to rupture or lead to other unexpected problems.
If the stent is too small, it won’t achieve the ideal surgical effect, the lumen remains narrow, and circulation is affected. Also, a too small stent may not be stable within the vessel and may shift.
Therefore, the selection of stent size and length is extremely critical.
Additionally, before placing the stent, it’s often chosen to use a drug balloon first to dilate the occluded vessel, achieving the ideal lumen diameter.
It’s best if the diameter of the diseased vessel is close to a normal vessel to avoid affecting circulation.
Many of the technical requirements can only be felt and continuously summarized by the surgeon to gradually improve.
A skilled cardiovascular interventional surgeon can spare the patient from much pain. A doctor lacking skill may require the patient to undergo a second drug stent dilation, have stent issues, or even face severe consequences like death.
After Zhou Can finished placing all the stents for the patient, the patient’s circulation was restored to an ideal state.
Heart rate returned to normal, pulse was strong and vigorous, circulation throughout the body was smooth, especially the symptoms of chest tightness and fatigue were significantly improved.
"Alright, the surgery was very successful! Congratulations on your heart’s good recovery, please take care of your body in the future."
After pleting the surgery, Zhou Can let out a long breath of relief.
Today, there’s finally no chaos.
In the live broadcast, who knows how many people hoped for him to fail, but things didn’t go as they wished.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhou! Thank you!"
The patient thanked him excitedly and repeatedly.
Zhou Can was like his rebirth parent, pulling him back from the brink of death.
"Dr. Zhou, many fans are requesting, could you remove your mask and say hello to everyone? They all want to see the face of a top cardiac surgeon."
"Alright!"
Zhou Can pondered briefly and agreed to the live audience’s request.
He removed his mask, waved to the camera, and said, "Hello everyone, I am just an ordinary surgeon at Tuya Hospital. Thank you all for watching this surgery, I’m delighted to meet you. If any of you have cardiovascular issues, feel free to visit Tuya Hospital for a consultation. Of course, I hope each of you stays healthy and never needs to visit a hospital."
This was said very skillfully.
In introducing himself, he was very modest, pulling business for Tuya Hospital while also considering the audience’s standpoint, hoping each of them remains healthy.
This is the true embodiment of high medical ethics.
Some hospitals even post shocking slogans wishing for prosperity and wealth. Others hang ’Wele Patients Again’ with ’Warm’ words.
Even more so, some directly shout slogans in internal hospital meetings, aiming for doubled business volumes and revenue goals.
Without exception, these hospitals treat medical care as a business.
It’s not wrong for hospitals to survive, to want more patients for treatment, and to generate more revenue to improve staff ines. But they betray the healer’s initial intent by tying patients to profit, turning something sacred into mercial behavior.
Patients and their families surely feel anger and disgust towards such actions.
It’s like the owner of a coffin shop hoping for deaths every day.
To put it bluntly, it’s unscrupulous.
Because of Zhou Can’s speech being very appropriate, it made the audience feel quite fortable. The live chat was filled with pliments, with people continuously offering gifts to cheer for Zhou Can.
"Benevolent heart and skill!"
"No wonder he’s a top surgeon, just his medical ethics wishing for a world without illness is admirable."
"Salute!"
...
After greeting the audience, Zhou Can didn’t continue looking at their ments but rather left the operating room.
The entire surgical process lasted for nearly three hours.
It’s now eleven o’clock at night, and he should head home.
Tomorrow will surely be another beautiful day.
Tuya Hospital is bound to make waves domestically due to the great success of today’s surgery, making a name for itself far and wide.
Vice Director Ye, Dean Zhu, and others must be in high spirits right now.
ing out from the interventional operating room, unexpectedly, Vice Director Ye was waiting outside.
"Xiao Zhou, tonight’s performance was excellent! My promise to you will be fulfilled, and you need to keep working hard, strive to bee even more outstanding."
He waited here just to praise Zhou Can and give him a promise.
Of course, this is also an attitude.
It shows the importance placed on Zhou Can.
"Thank you for your guidance, Dean Ye! I will work hard."
Zhou Can gave a diplomatic response.
