Chapter 793: Lost

At noon, when it was almost time to get off work.

The patient's husband came to the doctor's office and expressed his willingness to have surgery to Gu Xinyue.

The surgery must be done!

The child must be saved!

"The surgery is complicated, and the minimally invasive treatment may not be very effective." Gu Xinyue said, "According to the patient's condition, it is likely that a surgical thoracotomy will be required."

"Thoracotomy?" The patient's husband was stunned, "Then the risks involved..."

"There are many risks, and it is a test for both the mother and the fetus." Gu Xinyue said in a deep voice, "This kind of heart disease is more difficult, especially for pregnant women. If the surgery is not performed as soon as possible, the bacterial vegetation in the heart may fall off at any time, causing embolism of other organs, and heart failure will continue to worsen. If the opportunity for surgery is lost, both mother and child will face fatal risks."

"I know, Professor Lu has told me." The patient's husband lowered his head, his eyes were already red, "We... agree to the surgery."

"Okay, we will notify the cardiac surgery department for consultation immediately." Gu Xinyue said.

Ten minutes later, the cardiac surgery consulting doctor arrived.

He gave the patient a detailed physical examination again and checked the patient's relevant medical records.

The cardiac surgeon also had a serious expression, "Fortunately, it was discovered early. If the infection worsens, there will be no chance for surgery!"

Gu Xinyue nodded slightly: "We have always asked patients to come to the outpatient clinic for regular checkups. This time it was discovered in time."

The cardiac surgeon continued: "At present, the main purpose of our surgery is to remove the vegetation and infection in the heart, and then replace the artificial valve!"

"Our Director Lu also thinks so." Gu Xinyue echoed, "It may be necessary to operate as soon as possible! We have communicated with the patient's family. They are willing to take the risk and protect both mother and child!"

"Okay, just your words are enough. I will communicate with the patient's family again." The cardiac surgeon nodded, "I will notify the operating room and our director that this patient may need emergency surgery."

Valve vegetation, infective endocarditis, delaying for one more second will pose a threat to the patient.

...

The pregnant woman was soon arranged to enter the operating room.

Cardiac surgery, cardiology, anesthesia, obstetrics and gynecology, multiple departments conducted joint diagnosis and treatment to treat the patient.

The leaders of Guanghai First Hospital did not give up this great opportunity for publicity.

They planned to arrange for the surgeon to visit immediately after the operation was successful.

The operation was open-chest surgery, and congenital heart disease and valve replacement were all performed by the surgery department.

Although the tavr operation is good, the life of the valve is not long, at most ten years.

For these young patients, open-chest surgery is far better than tavr surgery.

As a representative of the Department of Cardiology, Gu Xinyue came to the operating room to escort the patient's operation throughout the whole process.

What happened next had nothing to do with Lu Chen.

…

The operation process was extremely long.

Open chest, remove vegetation, and then valve replacement...

The operation lasted from noon to night.

During this period, the patient's vital signs were unstable.

However, relying on the surgeon's calmness and the patient's desire to survive, it finally stabilized.

After the cooperation of multiple departments to escort the operation, the final result of the operation made everyone happy.

The operation was successful, and the mother and child were safe!

After the operation, the patient was transferred to the ICU ward for care.

The patient will be transferred to the general ward only after the condition stabilizes.

In the talent apartment.

Lu Chen was reading the literature. After getting the news, he was also happy for the patient.

However, he was happy for only a few minutes when he received a call from Professor Ouyang Ming.

"Hello, Professor Ouyang?" Lu Chen asked.

"Yes, it's me." There was a hint of hesitation in Professor Ouyang's tone.

Lu Chen felt an unusual atmosphere, "Professor Ouyang, what's the matter?"

Usually, Professor Ouyang rarely called him on his own initiative.

"It's about the review of the National Natural Science Foundation project." Professor Ouyang said in a deep voice, "The internal results have just come out."

Hearing Ouyang Ming's hesitant and hesitant voice, Lu Chen's heart tightened, "I... I was rejected?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time before he slowly said: "Lu Chen, you are still young, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future..."

Ouyang Ming didn't say it directly, but Lu Chen already understood.

He was not selected!

Lu Chen took a deep breath, and it was hard for him to accept the result.

"Lu Chen, I have watched you step by step get to where you are today. You are less than 30 years old, deputy chief physician, deputy department director, and chairman of the Guanghai City TAVR branch. These titles are already very impressive."

"Professor Ouyang, I want to know who of my competitors has made it?"

Lu Chen adjusted his mood and asked softly.

"Li Hengzheng, Fang Qiao, and Zhou Mingzhu." Ouyang Ming slowly said these three names.

Lu Chen smiled.

These three people are well-known, and he knew them before the review.

Li Hengzheng, a disciple of a Chinese academician.

Fang Qiao, the son of the dean of Kyoto University Hospital.

As for Zhou Mingzhu, she is the niece of a well-known cardiologist.

Everyone's background is very profound!

"Lu Chen, how old are you?! They are at least 40 years old." Ouyang Ming said earnestly, "In a few years, this future will be yours. Don't be anxious, take your time."

"Thank you Professor Ouyang for your teaching, I understand." Lu Chen nodded.

Ouyang Ming was also kind-hearted, otherwise he would not have told him the results as soon as they came out.

Just as Ouyang Ming said.

Li Hengzheng and others are already around 40 years old.

Compared with them, he is still young and has a lot of time to struggle.

However, for Lu Chen, the National Natural Science Foundation project is not just a step for promotion.

All his scientific research ideas need the support of fund projects.

He alone cannot complete the establishment of the tavr database.

"Okay, then think about it yourself, I won't bother you."

Ouyang Ming hung up the phone, and Lu Chen fell into deep thought.

...

All his original scientific research plans were interrupted in an instant.

As for applying for a master's supervisor, he is not qualified for the time being.

Lu Chen was really unwilling in his heart.

But he could do nothing!

The scientific research circle is a small society. It is not black and white. It is not that whoever is good will get the job.

The application for the National Natural Science Foundation of China failed, but life must go on.

Scientific research only occupies a small part of Lu Chen's life. Next, he still has a lot of things to do.

However, a week later.

The results of the application for the National Natural Science Foundation of China were officially announced to the public.

When Lu Chen saw the National Natural Science Foundation of China project books of the other three people, he couldn't help but laugh.

If these projects can produce something substantial, they are also good.

The news that Lu Chen failed the exam was also known to everyone.

Many people are still not convinced by this young deputy chief physician.

Some people sighed, some people regretted, and some people gloated.

Many people who have never seen Lu Chen think that he came to Guanghai First Hospital through connections or backdoors.

Sometimes, jealousy can make people unrecognizable.

But for Lu Chen, these are all laughed off.

His time should not be wasted on these boring things or people.

In the vast world of medicine, he still has a lot of things to explore, and the pathophysiology and diagnosis and treatment methods of many diseases have not been figured out.

In the ward, there are still many patients waiting for him to diagnose and treat.

After getting his mood right, Lu Chen continued on his way. 　　16377/10545439
