Chapter 724: What's the background of you doctors?

Director Tao was a bit disoriented outside the operating room at this moment.

What did I just see?

Zheng Qian, President Zheng?

Taking President Wei Haicheng with him—the one in charge of the liver tumor specialty—he went in?

Due to her intense emotional fluctuations, Xu Shuyun hadn't seen what just happened.

When she came back to her senses, she realized Zheng Qian was gone.

Suddenly, her heart was filled with even more anxiety and unease, and she searched eagerly for his figure.

"Um, President Zheng just, went, went in."

Director Tao said with a hint of embarrassment.

Huh?

Xu Shuyun: ???

"Sis! I'm here. How is Dad doing now?"

Just then, Zheng Qian's brother-in-law, Xu Huateng, arrived in a rush, looking travel-worn.

Seeing Xu Shuyun's distracted state, his heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Sis, you, don't scare me!"

Xu Shuyun forced a smile, "It's okay. Just now, the Dean said it's not a big problem."

This was clearly just an excuse.

Xu Huateng shook his head and asked again, "Where is Brother-in-law? I heard Brother-in-law also returned to Yebai. Have you... met?"

He looked at Xu Shuyun tentatively, still remembering the sad past events that happened in Shanghu last time.

"Yes, we met. Your brother-in-law, went, went in." Xu Shuyun answered bitterly.

Oh, he went in.

Huh????

He went in???

Xu Huateng was nearly scared out of his wits. He quickly grabbed his sister's hand tightly, "He went in? What did Brother-in-law do wrong?"

Huh???

Xu Shuyun only then realized her phrasing was ambiguous.

"Oh my, what are you thinking? Your brother-in-law just went into the operating room with the Dean!"

...

Fortunately, there was still hope.

Zheng Qian entered the operating room and first glanced at the incredibly panicked Deputy Director Wang.

Then he immediately checked Chairman Xu Chengye's condition and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although this Deputy Director Wang was a bit unreliable, he was probably just too anxious. He was someone who had performed many surgeries, so he did have the skills, and he hadn't let his father-in-law stop breathing.

"Why are you still doing tracheal intubation and extracorporeal membrane lung?" Zheng Qian asked.

First Assistant: ???

Nurses: ???

Who is he? Could he be the expert who arrived from the province just in time?

"Hurry up and answer Dr. Zheng... er, Professor Zheng!" Wei Haicheng quickly said. He forced the words "Dr. Zheng" back, thinking that saying Professor Zheng shouldn't be a problem, right? He had heard many people call him Professor Zheng.

"The extracorporeal membrane lung is on its way. Just now, we were performing emergency cardiac massage to maintain hemodynamics..."

The First Assistant answered subconsciously.

Zheng Qian asked questions while simultaneously assisting with the rescue work.

His movements were so proficient that he didn't look like a layman at all, which greatly surprised Wei Haicheng.

He quickly asked Deputy Director Wang to leave the operating room, otherwise, he was really worried that if Zheng Qian held a scalpel, he might not be solving the problem for Chairman Xu Chengye, but rather accidentally stab it right into his stomach; such things should be avoided.

After the extracorporeal membrane lung was delivered and connected, Chairman Xu Chengye's breathing finally stabilized a little.

His various vital signs were no longer as extreme as they had been just a moment ago.

At the same time, Zheng Qian also activated the Hua Tuo Model.

"The patient has a severe allergy to the contrast agent, resulting in severe laryngeal edema, which in turn caused systemic ischemia and hypoxia. Although it is very dangerous, as long as we maintain his breathing, it won't be a big problem. The most important thing right now is how to perform the intervention."

"In the absence of a contrast agent, it is impossible to see the inside of the blood vessels, so sometimes you have to rely on experience."

"However, we can also use the Hua Tuo Model. Let me demonstrate it for everyone."

Seeing that Chairman Xu Chengye's basic condition had stabilized, Zheng Qian breathed a sigh of relief. Saying this, he directed the young nurses to use the equipment that the Hua Tuo Model relied on, while simultaneously starting the teaching mode.

The First Assistant, Second Assistant, and Third Assistant listened with great interest.

The young nurses also looked at Zheng Qian in confusion.

Under Zheng Qian's direction, the young nurse connected Chairman Xu Chengye's various data, real-time ECG, and other physiological indicators to the Hua Tuo Model equipment. Very quickly, almost instantly, it provided a detailed surgical plan.

Everyone was suddenly shocked. This... is miraculous!?

It even judged beforehand that Chairman Xu Chengye might experience a contrast agent allergy?

And it even provided countermeasures in advance!

More importantly, with the help of intravascular ultrasound, it formed several pathways leading to the heart. These areas were very delicate and microscopic; the direction of the blood vessels and the positions of the internal catheters and guidewires could not be seen with the naked eye.

It would be fine if there was a contrast agent, but in a situation where imaging was impossible, the Hua Tuo Model undoubtedly pointed out a broad path.

Just then, the operating room door was pushed open.

It was Director Tong Zhengting, the cardiology expert from the province.

"President Wei." He had already made pre-operative preparations, and upon entering, he first nodded to Wei Haicheng. Then, he saw Zheng Qian instructing everyone and assumed he was the hospital's lead surgeon, but... he looked a bit too young, didn't he?

Seeing the savior arrive, Wei Haicheng was overjoyed.

He immediately prepared to let Tong Zhengting take over.

"This is... Huh? The patient is allergic to the contrast agent? Then what is this?" Tong Zhengting understood the situation as soon as he came in. When he saw the screen of the Hua Tuo Model, he immediately frowned and said suspiciously, "Isn't this very clear?"

"This is not a contrast result. This is simulated using model analysis combined with intravascular ultrasound. Can you handle it?"

Zheng Qian said as he was about to hand over the tool.

Tong Zhengting hesitated.

First, he didn't know Zheng Qian's identity. Second, he didn't have 100% certainty. This image was simulated, so there was bound to be a possibility of error. Actually, if he forced it, he could proceed, but the chance of failure was also very high.

He knew well that the mortality rate of this kind of allergy was extremely high; 50% would be considered conservative.

Based on his experience, it was basically close to 99%.

Without a contrast agent, relying purely on technique and experience to perform an intervention, it would be impossible for anyone who wasn't a true master to achieve it.

Zheng Qian sighed, "I'll do it. You all watch carefully how I use the Hua Tuo Model."

As he said this, he began the intervention.

The moment it was probed into the blood vessel, a simulated image immediately appeared on the screen of the Hua Tuo Model equipment. One could clearly see the needle-like object entering the blood vessel and moving forward continuously.

One could see more macroscopically where it was in the body.

This was more vivid than the X-ray fluoroscopy screen!

That screen only showed the microscopic vascular state of the "needle" area.

Zheng Qian became more and more proficient. He inserted the guiding catheter and guidewire, then sent the balloon to the location of the diseased blood vessel, then glanced at Tong Zhengting, signaling him with his eyes to come and help quickly.

Tong Zhengting was stunned. This look... why was it so familiar?

It was just like the look his mentor gave him when he was an intern back then?

However, since Wei Haicheng seemed so respectful to Zheng Qian, he must be a master, right? Not thinking too much about it, he quickly took the position of the First Assistant and began to assist Zheng Qian in pressurizing the balloon with a pressure pump.

Zheng Qian nodded with satisfaction. The balloon was expanded just right. It seemed this Tong Zhengting had true talent.

Then he began the stent placement work.

Hmm, cobalt-chromium alloy, not bad.

Then Zheng Qian gave the doctor next to him a look, and that person quickly stood in the position of the Second Assistant and began to help withdraw the balloon and guidewire.

Wei Haicheng was in despair.

Even the thing that Tong Zhengting hesitated to do, Zheng Qian actually did it without hesitation? And his hands were so steady? He could understand Tong Zhengting; it was mainly the fear of failure. If no one else stepped up, Tong Zhengting would definitely have stepped up without hesitation.

But, wasn't Zheng Qian too decisive?

"Holy crap..." "Holy cow..." "Damn..."

Just when Wei Haicheng was already considering how to deal with the aftermath.

Three "holy craps" in different tones appeared in his ears, making his heart skip a beat. Oh no, is he gone?

"Director Tong, this..."

"A miracle! My gosh, who is this young doctor? His hands are so steady! And what is this device?"

Tong Zhengting was trembling with excitement. Fearing that he might disturb Zheng Qian, he quickly asked in a low voice.

Wei Haicheng: ???

Huh?

Could it be, it succeeded? Really, for real?

"He managed to complete the precise positioning of the stent diameter and length relying solely on intravascular ultrasound and this device! I... I don't know if he is too awesome, or if this device is too awesome. Old Wei, what kind of background does this doctor in your hospital have?"
