After hearing Meton's explanation, the young lady let down her guard and allowed Black Five to start the measurement.
"Eh!"
Black Five looked at the value on the blood pressure monitor over and over again in disbelief.
Then, he took out a strange object and hung it around his neck. He put one end on his ear and the other end on his chest.
"This is a stethoscope! It can amplify the sound of a person's breathing and heartbeat by more than a hundred times. It is more helpful for doctors to diagnose the illness. "
Before the doctors present could ask, Meton took the initiative to explain that this was the first time the stethoscope was used in the Tang dynasty.
"Amplify it by more than a hundred times!"
Sun Simiao was shocked. Compared to a simple tool like the blood pressure monitor, the stethoscope was much more useful.
One must know that Chinese medicine was based on the four diagnostic methods, which were looking, listening, questioning, and feeling the pulse. Listening was listening to the breathing. If this stethoscope could amplify the breathing by more than a hundred times, it would be of great help to the diagnosis of the illness.
Sun Simiao was overjoyed. With his experience, he certainly knew that these two things were the best news for doctors. In the past, doctors made diagnoses based on their experience. With the addition of these tools, the accuracy of the diagnosis would be greatly improved.
Perhaps the blood pressure monitor was too simple and could not be compared to pulse reading, but it had an incomparable advantage. It could be used by an ordinary apprentice.
And the stethoscope in front of them was a magical tool that even a famous doctor like Sun Simiao was moved by.
"What's more difficult is that these two things do not allow doctors to touch the body of the patient."
Being in contact with the human body will make it easier to diagnose women. "Morton tossed out another shocking explanation.
"Ah!"
Liu Mingcheng and his son's faces turned ugly. The biggest customers of the silk thread pulse reading were the noble ladies. These ladies were very conservative and generous. The Liu Family Clinic became rich because of this.
Now that Mo Hospital had introduced the stethoscope and blood pressure monitor, it had eliminated the biggest advantage of the silk thread pulse reading.
The doctors in charge of the clinic started to ponder. As doctors, it was the most difficult thing to do when a woman was sick. Although doctors had the heart of a parent, the separation between men and women was still very serious in this era. Especially in Chang 'an City, where there were many noble families, these wealthy families were especially concerned about this.
After all, not every doctor knew how to take a pulse. A large number of customers flocked to the Liu Family's Clinic.
If his own clinic could also have a blood pressure monitor and a stethoscope, wouldn't the number of customers in the future increase by at least 50%?
"I wonder how much these stethoscopes and sphygmomanometers cost. Can you sell them to us?" Zhang Ling, the chief physician of the Zhang Family Clinic, could not help but ask.
The father and son of the Liu Family looked at the traitor angrily. He was the one who had supported them in the beginning. Now that he saw that things were going in the wrong direction, he immediately changed sides.
Zhang Ling did not care about the angry glares of the Liu family's father and son. Before Mo Hospital became popular, the Zhang family's clinic and the Liu family's clinic were rivals. However, the Liu family's father and son relied on the silk thread pulse diagnosis to suppress the Zhang family. Now, the Zhang family's opportunity had come. The invention of the stethoscope and sphygmomanometer made Zhang Ling realize the end of the silk thread pulse diagnosis.
However, before the father and son of the Liu Family could do anything to Zhang Ling, Meton's words struck them like lightning.
"Sell! It's not possible now. That will have to wait until Mo Hospital is fully equipped. However, before you leave, I will give everyone a set of sphygmomanometers and stethoscopes. "
"Thank you, Young Master Mo!" Zhang Ling and the other doctors thanked him.
Even Sun Simiao revealed a satisfied smile. He specialized in gynecology and pediatrics. Of course, he knew the biggest problem for women.
Only the Liu Family's father and son were embarrassed. Seeing that the Mo Family's son said that this thing could be mass-produced, didn't that mean that their Silk Thread Pulse Diagnosis was no longer the only choice for the rich and noble ladies?
"Everyone, don't be too happy. We don't know if these two things are useful. Who knows, they might not even be helpful in diagnosing illnesses!" Liu Mingcheng sneered.
Everyone was stunned. However, they quickly threw this worry to the back of their minds. Based on Mo Jiazi's legendary past, this kind of thing could not be faked. Moreover, weren't they in use right now? Was it real or fake? The answer would be revealed very soon.
Mo Wu was forced to do something beyond his ability. This was his first time practicing medicine. He was extremely nervous. In order to prevent any mistakes, he took a few measurements.
"Does Miss have headaches and dizziness? When you wake up in the morning, you feel tired and powerless. You also feel a faint pain in your chest?" Mo Wu asked.
"Yes, yes! The faint pain in my chest is only recent. "The lady nodded her head.
Mo Wu thought for a while and said with certainty, "Miss, you are not sick. These symptoms are caused by low blood pressure. In other words, low blood pressure!"
"Low blood pressure? Little apprentice doctor, do you even know medicine? How can you treat patients so carelessly! "Liu Mingcheng was ecstatic as he scolded loudly.
All the doctors were in an uproar. Which one of them wasn't well-read? They had never heard of low blood pressure.
However, the lady wasn't angry at all. She had heard enough of the long term treatment of other doctors. Now, she finally had a different diagnosis. Moreover, it was easy to accurately diagnose her symptoms.
"Then tell me how to treat it. What medicine should I take?" The lady asked.
Mo Wu shook his head and said, "There is no need to take any medicine. As long as you practice the Five Animal Frolics Technique for two hours every day, it will definitely improve your symptoms."
"Low blood pressure. That is clearly a symptom of a weak body. If the Five Animal Frolics Technique can cure a weak body, that would be the biggest joke in the world." Liu Licheng sneered. He had absolute confidence in his judgment.
"Doctor Sun, please uphold justice!" Liu Mingcheng and his son echoed each other. They cooperated very well.
"Doctor Sun!" The lady reached out her hand to Sun Simiao expectantly.
Sun Simiao placed his finger on her hand and carefully checked her pulse. He also asked about her usual symptoms and the medicine she had taken in the past.
After a long time, Sun Simiao nodded his head and said, "It is indeed a weak body."
"Hahaha!" Liu Mingcheng and his son laughed wildly.
Mo Wu's face was instantly filled with despair. He looked at Meton helplessly.
"It's fine! You have to believe in your own judgment! "Meton encouraged.
"Believe in yourself. Even Doctor Sun said that it is a weak body. You guys still don't know how to repent. Little medical apprentice, you should learn for a few more years!" Liu Mingcheng said proudly.
Sun Simiao nodded his head and said, "This is indeed a weak body. All this while, we did not know the cause of the weak body. Now, we finally have a conclusion. It is low blood pressure!"
"Uh, uh!" Liu Mingcheng and his son were like a male goose that was choked by the neck.
Mo Wu was instantly overwhelmed with ecstasy. His first medical practice was actually acknowledged by Sun Simiao. He was so excited that he could not control himself.
The people from the other medical centers were also shocked. They looked at Mo Wu and Sun Simiao in disbelief. They did not doubt Sun Simiao's position and medical skills. After all, Sun Simiao's status was there.
They were shocked by Mo Wu and the magical blood pressure meter and stethoscope in his hands.
The next scene completely shocked everyone. After a few more patients went on stage, Mo Wu and Liu Licheng took turns to go on stage. The results made everyone's eyes wide open.
A little medical apprentice relied on a simple blood pressure meter and stethoscope to take the pulse without falling behind. Everyone realized a serious problem.
