Chapter 1066: A new solution to burns

"Xu Qiu, is something wrong?"

Facing this clinical doctor's thigh, Dean Wang Shengde had no airs at all.

Even the sitting posture is quite upright, and it is obvious who is the real boss.

"What's the plastic surgery level of the clinic?" Xu Qiu asked bluntly.

Wang Shengde couldn't help but stretch his neck, his eyes flashing with joy: "Do you want to have plastic surgery?"

Which department is the most profitable in the hospital?

There was no doubt that it was the surgical department. The so-called golden eye department and silver surgery department, and the emergency department where you would never go to the emergency department came from this.

But with the implementation of medical reform, many things have changed.

A large number of surgical instruments that can generate income cannot be earned at all now, and sometimes hospitals even have to reimburse them!

But, one thing hasn't changed.

Regardless of whether it is done before or after surgery, plastic surgery is extremely lucrative.

A suture costs tens of dollars for surgical suturing, and the doctor gets a few dollars for hard work.

But a few centimeters of sutures in plastic surgery can cost an extra two to three thousand, and the amount a doctor can earn is quite exaggerated.

Of course, the emergency department hasn’t changed either.

Whether it is before or after the rectification, it is still the same hardship...

People like Xu Qiu, who use surgery as a living, can make their salary reach an incredible amount.

Excluding the special case of Xu Qiu, the salary level of the clinical emergency department is at the lower end of the hospital.

but.

Clinic plastic surgery is really not that good.

After all, the entire Linhai First Hospital took off holding Xu Qiu's thigh, and Xu Qiu's surgeries were mostly high-precision surgeries for various emergencies.

There are few procedures specific to plastic surgery.

And if plastic surgery can be practiced...then the financial resources of clinical medicine can increase even further!

So Wang Shengde got a little excited at the moment and said: "To be honest, although the plastic surgery department of Linyi has been established, it probably doesn't exist...

"Many patients would rather go to some private clinics than come to our hospital!"

It’s not easy to reimburse anyway.

The clinical doctor is a top three, and he is not able to perform various operations.

Small clinics set their own prices and can adjust preferential prices internally. In comparison, some private clinics have a price advantage.

and!

The most important thing is actually the service!

Those who can go to plastic surgery are mostly wealthy ladies with a lot of money and little space.

Going to a private high-end clinic for plastic surgery, and going to a top-tier tertiary hospital...the two target groups do not match.

And these people value service more!

It is impossible for clinical doctors to provide any excellent services. The urgent medical resources are not enough. How can there be time to care about the spiritual pursuits of patients?

but.

Seeing Wang Shengde's somewhat excited look, Xu Qiu remained calm as always, shook his head and said: "Plastic surgery is required, but our main focus is 'surgery', not 'plastic surgery'."

Wang Shengde was stunned.

Immediately I understood.

What clinical doctors want to establish is a plastic surgery department for "patients", not a plastic surgery department for "rich ladies" to adjust their appearance.

Such as Tian Ling.

For someone like her, who had skin burns all over her body and was completely disfigured, private plastic surgery couldn't handle her.

Their doctors could only make minor adjustments to their otherwise beautiful faces.

But what about plastic surgery in large hospitals?

It’s a makeover job!

The plastic surgery department that the clinic wants to establish is naturally a department prepared for patients like Tian Ling, in order to give patients a chance to regain their normal appearance.

In a sense, it is a subject of "putting oneself to death to survive"!

Xu Qiudao: "Bacteriophage therapy can be popularized in burn surgery. But it is not enough to save people. The pursuit of 'living like normal people' is the ultimate goal of treatment."

He said it as a matter of course.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

When replanting a severed finger, the most basic requirement is to reattach the finger. The higher requirement is to ensure the availability of functions. The higher requirement is to "take into account both appearance and function."

Although burn patients and patients who were disfigured due to illness survived, they must rely on plastic surgery if they want to face a more difficult life after recovery.

Just right.

Xu Qiu also happens to have a lot of surgeries and experience that can be classified into plastic surgery.

Compiled into a volume, it can be used as one of the cornerstones of the rise of clinical plastic surgery.

Xu Qiu said: “The pattern of plastic surgery has basically been formed, and it is basically impossible to suddenly emerge.

“But this time the doctor happened to encounter a patient like Tian Ling.

"If plastic surgery can be used to restore part of her appearance, this would be a huge opportunity for clinicians."

Wang Shengde was stunned when he heard this. He patted his thigh for the last time and suddenly realized.

This is why it is said that "disasters are unfortunate for hospitals, but sometimes they are also a huge opportunity."

Every disaster will inevitably lead to the emergence of a large number of excellent hospitals and outstanding individuals. In normal times, a doctor who has worked hard for decades may not be able to wait for such an opportunity!

But as long as you seize the opportunities in disasters, you can even reach the sky in one step!

Now is the best opportunity to practice plastic surgery!

Xu Qiu's goal is also here.

Phage therapy can only save one person.

But if her treatment experience is summarized and promoted across the country and even the world, an unimaginable number of patients can be saved!

and,

Xu Qiu used more than just phage therapy in this rescue operation.

There is also the stamp skin grafting method!

Conventional burn surgical skin transplantation is mostly large-scale allogeneic skin transplantation, or simply using tilapia skin and other xenogeneic skin for processing.

There are two defects.

First, the skin utilization rate is very high, which makes it impossible to find a source that can supply such a large number of skin slices.

Second, the transplantation of the entire skin is destined to use the same transplantation method for all parts of the body, and it is often impossible to "adapt to local conditions".

But Xu Qiu used a completely different method on Tian Ling.

First, abandon the practice of large-scale transplantation!

Change the large skin slices into small pieces of allogeneic skin, and finally sew and connect them together like stamp collecting!

This method solves the problem of the source of a large number of skin slices!

Because in this way, skin can be taken from different donors!

Take 20 centimeters from this patient, and another piece from another patient... This method is efficient and highly acceptable.

After all, asking family members to donate the bodies of their deceased relatives is too easy to choose between stripping the entire body of skin or letting the doctor take one piece of skin.

The people of Daxia are particular about resting in peace. They can donate all kinds of organs in their bodies, and it doesn't matter if they have their intestines emptied, but they will never let doctors peel off the patient's skin...

Before this, the treatment plans for different skin grafts were always a thorny issue.

However, this time, the treatment experience Xu Qiu gained from Tian Ling can be generalized and bring new solutions to burn surgery.

As for the second point, its importance even exceeds that of stamp-shaped skin grafts, and can even directly determine whether the patient can recover!
