Why is Su Yun looking for me? His adrenaline shot through the roof as he read the missed calls.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the patient after the surgery? That was Zheng Ren's first thought.
As he called back, Zheng Ren went through the 912's postoperative patients.
Come to think of it, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Boss, where did you go? Do you have a lover? " Su Yun's lazy voice came from the phone, and Zheng Ren's adrenaline level instantly dropped to normal.
It was good that he was fine.
"Don't talk nonsense. Come to the Imperial Capital's Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery with Chief Kong." Zheng Ren was very strict with his words so that Chief Kong would not be embarrassed.
"Has it been recorded in the medical administration division? Without a record, even if it's to save the stage, it's illegal. "Su Yun spouted nonsense.
However, this was true. Zheng Ren knew that strictly speaking, it was against the rules for him and Department Chief Kong to come to the Imperial Capital to rescue the patient.
"Department Chief Kong is here. What does it have to do with me? You're thinking too much! "Zheng Ren said." Why are you looking for me? "
"There's an email in your mailbox. It's a consultation for 100,000 dollars. I'll take it for you," Su Yun said happily. "Guess where it came from?"
Recently, he had received a lot of requests to learn TIPS surgery, so he handed his email to Su Yun. After all, they usually contacted each other through WeChat and mobile phones. Only foreigners were used to using email.
"Mayo?" Zheng Ren's heart skipped a beat.
Why would Su Yun be cheering for a hundred thousand US dollars? It must be because the level of the hospital that sent the consultation was particularly high. That was why he felt so good.
"Oh, boss, you really know how to calculate. It's a consultation from Mayo. Come back, take a look at the radiographic films, and give them a reply, "Su Yun said.
"That simple?"
"Hey, can't you have some self-awareness?" Su Yun was very impatient and directly said, "You're a candidate for the Nobel Prize. 100,000 US dollars for a consultation. Lil Fugui said that this price is on the low side."
"Oh, okay. What are we having for dinner? Are you sure? "
"Just a bite. Let's earn the consultation fee first." Su Yun chuckled and hung up the phone.
Zheng Ren did not ask about the patient, nor did he ask about the illness.
Since he had said so, he would just return to the 912.
After getting a car, Zheng Ren rushed back to the 912. On the way, he saw Su Yun chatting with many girls in the group, showing off Mayo's request for a consultation.
Zheng Ren did not think much of it. The Mayo Clinic was just that. It was a paradise for the rich. It was said that many big shots in the domestic business world regularly went to the Mayo Clinic for a physical examination every year.
In fact, rather than making a long journey to the Mayo Clinic, it was better to look for him. The System's accuracy was much better than Meio's, Zheng Ren thought to himself.
Soon, he returned to the 912 and Zheng Ren strode upstairs.
The white coat was left in Chief Kong's car. Fortunately, there was nothing in the pocket of the white coat. Zheng Ren did not think about it and walked into the office.
"Boss, Mayo has sent a consultation request and needs your confirmation," Professor Rudolf Wagner said to Zheng Ren.
"How do I confirm it?" Zheng Ren asked.
"Your agreement is confirmation." The professor looked at Zheng Ren, trying to recall if there was something wrong with his context and thoughts.
Alright … Zheng Ren was also very helpless. Then, he asked, "What patient? Where are the medical records? "
"In the mailbox," Su Yun said lazily. "The translation software has been downloaded. You can just look at it directly."
"Ding dong ~" The sound of the System's mission was heard the moment Zheng Ren clicked on the mailbox interface.
Eh, there was a mission.
Zheng Ren had 'wasted' fifteen hours of surgical training time today and was feeling distressed. However, the System was very considerate and issued a mission. Zheng Ren felt that the System was really understanding.
[System Mission: Request from a Distance
Mission Content: Complete the treatment of a case of bilateral renal artery stenosis after RDN.
Mission Reward: 100,000 experience points, 5,000 skill points, reputation + 1.
Mission Time: 1 month.]
Reputation?
Zheng Ren saw the reward of reputation + 1 at a glance.
Perhaps this was a special reward from the consultation application sent by the Mayo Clinic, Zheng Ren guessed.
Overall, the highlight of this mission was that the mission time was one month. If he could complete it ahead of time, there would be a lot of surgical training time left.
However, this was an application from the Mayo Clinic. Zheng Ren was still more cautious.
RDN was an experimental surgery that used radiofrequency ablation to remove the renal sympathetic nerves to treat high blood pressure. Zheng Ren had read similar literature reports in the System library.
This project was funded by Medtronic, an international medical supplies manufacturer.
Many projects were not initiated by doctors but by these large manufacturers. For some reason, they were also willing to spend a lot of money to research similar projects.
Nine out of ten projects failed. It was not scary. The patent period, huge income, and huge profits would make up for all the losses.
Of course, if they failed continuously, no matter how rich a multinational company was, they would not be able to bear it.
"Boss, are you thinking about the 100,000 US dollars?" Su Yun saw that Zheng Ren was stunned for a moment, so he asked with a smile.
"No, I'm thinking about the problem that Mayo can't solve. Why did they throw it to me for consultation?" Zheng Ren said perfunctorily.
After saying that, he clicked on the case file.
The patient was an Indian male, 42 years old.
She was diagnosed with refractory essential hypertension 6 months before the operation. Combined therapy.
Antihypertensive drugs to maintain blood pressure at? 150/80
mmHg。
Later, he received treatment four months ago.
Treatment.
Before treatment, 64-slice CT scan.
Vascular imaging showed that there was no bilateral renal artery stenosis, and renal function was normal.
However, four months after the surgery, transient pulmonary edema was complicated with acute renal failure, and severe hypertension was admitted to the hospital for treatment. The patient's blood pressure was as high as 220/140 under the maintenance of antihypertensive drugs.
mmHg。
Zheng Ren looked at the brief description of the patient's condition and was stunned.
Did pulmonary edema appear so frequently? There were also complications such as acute renal failure.
In the auxiliary examination, Doppler ultrasound showed that the peak systolic flow rate of the right renal artery was
Cm/s. The left renal artery was
cm/s。 At this peak, Zheng Ren was afraid that the blood vessels would burst at any time and blood would spurt out.
The 64-slice CT and MRI provided favorable evidence that the patient had bilateral renal artery stenosis after the surgery.
The condition was very simple. Zheng Ren estimated that the heating of the RDN during the surgery caused changes in the renal artery that could not be predicted by current science, resulting in stenosis and hypertension.
This disease …
Zheng Ren frowned as he looked at it.
"Boss, is it difficult?" Su Yun asked.
"Why do I feel that the Mayo Clinic is hiding something?" Zheng Ren said softly as he looked at the radiographic films with his chin in his hand.
It was as if he was answering Su Yun's question, but also as if he was talking to himself.
"Hiding?"
"From the looks of it, it's not difficult. It's just that the process of radiofrequency heating caused the blood vessels to deform and the complications of bilateral renal artery stenosis. As long as the stent is placed on both sides, this problem will be solved. " Zheng Ren pointed at the 64-slice CT image and said, "What's so good about asking me for a consultation?"
"Maybe Medtronic is taking this opportunity to give you money."
