Chapter 1469 A New Treatment Method for Heart Surgery (Planet Watcher Leader’s Update 2)

"What? Will you still be paralyzed? Will you die?!"

The old dwarf sat up in shock when he was dying of illness. He was originally lying like a salted fish, but now he couldn't help but bounce a little on the bed. Gretel looked at him sincerely, and with a slight hook of his fingers, the three-dimensional model of the heart appeared again:

"Look, here and here should have been sealed, but you made a hole here. When you make a hole, there will be a long tunnel, and the blood will condense here..."

As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and the light and shadow flashed in the room, and a winding, wide and narrow river appeared, and the sandy river water was tumbling in the river:

"Look, is it easy for sediment to accumulate in such river channels, where they turn and change in width? The same goes for blood, which has a natural ability to coagulate. In such a long and slender tunnel, it is particularly easy to coagulate..."

In fact, a colleague from Shenwai once boasted to him that he had indeed seen a small thrombus in the foramen ovale tunnel during cardiac ultrasound.

There was a sound of gasping around him. The dwarfs exchanged glances with each other, their faces pale, and some of them had raised their hands to press their temples——

I don’t know if headaches are a common phenomenon among this group of people.

Even the cloud giant Lum listened. He was ordered to run errands for Gretel, hoping that he would cure the old dwarf's disease with a pat of his hand, and then continue working for his master.

Who knew that Grete had completed one examination after another, one dwarf after another. At the end of the investigation, he simply explained the cause of the disease to the old dwarf in a friendly manner, without feeling bored at all...

What's there to say to these guys? Treat it however you want, how dare you not treat it?

The cloud giant Rum listened with some boredom, but because Gretel was the superior and could not interrupt his explanation, he directly kicked the dwarfs out. It was only now that I heard it, and I got a taste of it:

Alas, if the dragon master can be so patient when treating me, it would actually be very good...

He thought silently. And Gretel has already manifested a blood vessel, winding upward from the heart and entering the brain. And a tiny blood clot is flowing along the blood vessels to the brain:

"If such a blood clot flows into your brain and blocks the blood vessels in your brain, this piece of brain will die... Then, you will either be paralyzed or die...

When a blood clot enters the brain, the result is self-evident, a stroke.

The old dwarf's complexion has turned from white to green, from green to purple, from purple to white, and is slightly transparent. He trembled: "Then, then...how will you treat it?"

If it were a few years ago, or when he first arrived on Evermeet Island, Gretel might have used vines to guide healing. But now, thanks to the changes in the little snake, Gretel has a better way.

"Don't worry, it's very simple. Look -"

He raised his hand and hooked it, and a three-foot-long snake with black stripes on a white background wrapped around his arm and slowly appeared. Grete stroked the little snake's head and said softly:

"This little snake can switch between the physical and incorporeal bodies. I will let it enter your body in its incorporeal state, guide my healing spells, and make this place in your heart grow well.

It's very convenient, fast, and almost painless and dangerous. "

As he spoke, he spread his palms and gave orders with his mind, letting the little snake penetrate into his palms in an incorporeal state, and then poke its head out from the back of his hands. Demonstrate this several times, stare into the other person's eyes, and say seriously:

"This is currently the most convenient and most effective method. Do you want to give it a try?

——I don’t mean to start the treatment right now, but I want you to try it and let the incorporeal snake pass through your body. If you confirm that this is painless and not terrible, let's move on to the next step..."

"No, come on!" the old dwarf suddenly interrupted. He lay back straight, closed his eyes, and pushed his chest up. After a pause, he opened his eyes again and said sincerely:

"My lord, you are very considerate of me for being willing to tell me so much. At this point, I still have to ask questions and try again and again, but I don't know what to do. Sir, please do it!"

This "please do something" doesn't sound like treatment, but rather like asking me to amputate my limbs with an axe... Gretel silently complained. Not far away, the cloud giant Rum had already snorted:

"That's pretty much it!"

Gretel: →_→

Hey, don't mock my patients!

I'm still here! Don't make fun of me in front of me or disrupt the medical order!

Gretel gave the other person a warning look. Seeing Giant Yun lowering his head and bowing, he took two steps back meaningfully, thought about it to himself, and sighed quietly:

Maybe Lum’s thoughts are the norm in this world?

Let alone this world, it was the same even in his previous life. People have the same mind and the same principles.

If it weren't for the repeated propaganda of medical ethics and the constant restrictions and beatings from hospitals, superior doctors, medical offices, and health bureaus, in fact, doctors would often feel this way:

I’ve already told you how to treat it, so why don’t you just pay the money, sign the signature, go for an examination, and then come over for treatment?

What are you waiting for?

I am a doctor, I wish you the best, and I will not harm you! Hurry, the longer you delay, the worse the situation will be!

Especially young doctors who are just starting out are more likely to feel impatient. Only after you have experienced a lot, seen a lot, seen all kinds of life, all kinds of misery and helplessness, can you slowly understand:

Although good health is a universal need of human beings, not all needs in this world can be realized. No money, no time to see a doctor, no one to accompany you, and don’t want your loved ones to be burdened with debt...

Any reason may cause the patient or family members to say "he died" or quietly leave the hospital.

——At this time, doctors who have not been repeatedly beaten by society will become angry and resentful, and they will catch patients and persuade them repeatedly, and even quarrel with patients.

What will happen if "patients have the right to know and decide" is not made an iron rule?

If the decision-making power rests with the doctor, who can guarantee that the doctor will not take the patient for treatment on the grounds of "I am doing it for your own good" or just to practice his own skills?

In his previous life, when there was no restraint from medical ethics, all kinds of incredible events occurred...

No matter what, he himself still has to adhere to medical ethics. In the future, it is best for the students he teaches to fix certain practices in the form of oaths.

Gretel took a deep breath and let it out. When he turned around to face the old dwarf Matt, he had become pleasant again:

"Don't be afraid. This kind of treatment should not cause any pain. But in order to prevent you from being nervous and moving around, I will first release a tranquilizing spell so that you can't feel any pain and can't move;

Then I started therapy. Just lie down and relax, close your eyes, and take a nap, I will do everything..."

The old dwarf nodded. Soon, he remembered Gretel's words again, closed his eyes quickly, and lay down straight.

Grete smiled reassuringly at him and waved everyone around to exit. No one was allowed to come in without his call. Then, first a tranquility spell was thrown, followed closely by the vital sign monitoring magic, which was fully launched;

Then, the little snake rose up from his arm, silently, and sank into the old dwarf's chest. Grete closed his eyes slightly, and what he saw in the little snake's eyes quietly unfolded in his meditation world:

Skin, muscles, bones, pleura. Enter the chest, enter the pericardium, enter the heart... the ventricles, the atria...

The left atrial appendage, pectinate muscles arranged one by one, and then the smooth left atrial sinus, the openings of the pulmonary veins on both sides of the posterior wall...

Search from the place opposite to the pulmonary vein, opposite to the right atrium, between the right atrium and the left atrium. Search carefully on the diaphragm to find the location of the fossa ovale...

found it!

There is no normally closed foramen ovale, right here!

Gretel gave the order quietly in his heart. The very small part of the snake's head changes from virtual to real.

Not four hollow, venomous snake teeth, but a small row of sesame-like, thin incisors like humans. The incisors close together and bite off a very fine layer on the diaphragm of the oval fossa...

Bite, swallow, bite again, swallow again. The little snake's work was carried out extremely quietly and very quickly. Gretel had been watching the electrocardiogram closely, but he did not notice any violent disturbances in the old dwarf's heart work.

The wound was bitten here, and the healing technique on Grete's hand immediately followed.

In the dim white light, the septum secundum and septum primum of the interatrial septum, a thin layer of fibrous tissue that is constantly swinging, and a layer of thicker muscular tissue, continue to grow towards each other.

The little snake finished its bite, and in the illusory vision, the two layers of the fossa ovale had grown together. Gretel patiently guided him for a while, making sure that the two layers of membrane had grown densely, and then quietly communicated to the little snake:

"Swallowed it all?"

"Swallow it."

"Won't it stay in your veins?"

"No~~~"

Speaking of which, this is also a special ability of the little snake. As long as there is not much of the things swallowed up in the target's body, such as blood clots or some tissues, it can be digested immediately and then brought out in the form of a weak body:

Surgery boss!

Thrombolysis King!

Treating myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, etc. is more convenient than digging in with vines, and there are no further consequences! Even if it was a thrombectomy in the previous life, there still had to be a pocket underneath to carry the debris, and the little snake didn't need that!

"Okay, cured." Gretel recalled the little snake, released the monitoring spell and tranquility spell, and clapped his hands. The old dwarf slowly opened his eyes, touched his chest, and pressed it hard:

"Hey, it's not broken?"

It must not be broken... The only cut was made when shaving my chest...

Grete snickered and threw in a tool to treat minor injuries, including the bloody wound from shaving his chest:

"Okay, everything is cured. If you want to stay here, just stay here for observation for a few days. If you don't want to stay, just go back and come back every six months or a year to see if the headache is gone."

"This... Sir, how should I repay your kindness..."

Grete waved his finger directly, signaling Rum to come on stage and negotiate for him the treatment fee. As for Gretel’s own needs:

"If the people you know have any incurable diseases, tell them and ask them to come to me?"

He just gave the instructions casually, not expecting the old dwarf to attract any strange patients.

Unexpectedly, this old man really had some connections and prestige. Not long after, he actually introduced an unexpected patient to him:

"Sir, look, I also have a headache...can you treat me too?"

"...Which one of you has a headache?"
