Returning to '90s, She Became Famous in Major Surgical Fields

Chapter 1017 : Use terms to comfort the boss

Even so, it is not enough for a doctor to speak empty words to patients, especially in the face of Mr. Lu who has rich medical knowledge.

"Teacher, don't worry too much." Xie Wanying told Teacher Lu again that when a doctor is not only presenting cruel facts, he also needs to bring new hope to patients so as not to make them despair, "Medical technology has new changes all the time. So The two difficulties I mentioned earlier, regarding the first point, our hospital already has this three-dimensional TEE esophageal echocardiography."

  TEE.

   A group of people suddenly heard her mention this relatively unheard of technology, and they were a little confused.

  TEE, is transesophageal echocardiography, which originated in the 1980s, started as two-dimensional, and developed to three-dimensional in the early 1990s, and now some are studying four-dimensional. This technology has been limited in clinical application from the very beginning. Most doctors are not optimistic about the prospects of the technology itself. Because its operation is like inserting a gastric tube, it needs to be anesthetized for patients, which is a troublesome thing for patients and doctors, so it has never been widely promoted in clinical practice.

   "I seem to have heard people say what you said. Are there few people who do this test?" Teacher Lu asked her, "Is it the same as an echocardiogram?"

  Teacher is a pharmacy boss, so he may be relatively unfamiliar with clinical examination items. It's not that the specialists in this field have never thought about it, but they can only think of TTE, which is also an echocardiogram, for the first time.

"The teacher said TTE." Xie Wanying explained, "TTE is widely used in clinical practice. Basically, patients with suspected structural heart disease will do this examination for further investigation. TTE is a transthoracic echocardiography. Probe the inside of the heart against the chest wall. TEE is to go into the esophagus and use the probe to probe the heart. Comparing the distance between the two and the heart, TEE must be that the probe is closer to the heart. So TEE has several advantages here. If you want to Exploring cardiac structures further from the chest wall, such as the great atrial vessels, clearly has the advantage of TEE over TTE and will illuminate it more clearly."

  Mr. Lu seemed to be fascinated by what she said. He kept listening, his eyes focused on her face and he hardly moved.

   This child seems to have a magic power coming from her mouth when she speaks of knowledge.

  Teacher Lu thought about it, maybe her speech was concise and to the point, with the depth and confidence of her understanding of medicine, which was enough to convince people.

   If it was a big boss talking like this, no one would think about it. The problem is that this child is only a medical student, so she can only be deeply surprised.

  The people around were astonished to hear Xie Wanying speak. There were many people there.

"The probe can be rotated, and it can detect important structures such as atrial appendages, pulmonary veins, and atrial septum from an angle. There is no anatomical lung tissue between the esophagus and the heart, and it is not afraid of affecting the lungs. Higher frequency Probes are used to detect. These advantages are not available for other inspection items such as TTE.” Xie Wanying said the last sentence to summarize the main points, “The probe is in the esophagus, which means that intraoperative continuous monitoring can be performed in cardiovascular surgery, which is very important for Cardiovascular physicians and anesthesiologists are of great significance.

Is that right? People from other departments look at people outside their hearts?

   Some even looked at Zhang Tinghai who was doing anesthesia.

   Zhang Tinghai was completely stunned. They are engaged in anesthesia, but they have never thought of using cardiovascular equipment for intraoperative testing. Is this a new research direction?

   Never heard her mention it? Zhang Tinghai glanced at Xie Wanying's face, and began to suspect that she had some attainments in anesthesiology.
