Big Doctor Live Room

Chapter 1409 Dopamine Stimulation
Chen Qun turned around and called Jiang Ming, telling him everything that happened on the operating table. He made it clear that it was because of the earthquake that the instrument he was operating pierced the patient's brain dura. The patient became conscious during the operation.He also repaired the mistakes just now as quickly as possible, and sent the patient out to meet his family.

"I think the patient is definitely related to the leakage and infection of the cerebrospinal fluid, so I have begun to analyze the difference between the patient's cerebrospinal fluid and her original body fluids. And I can't guarantee whether this wakefulness is normal or abnormal. , so I need you to come and see what happened."

When Jiang Ming heard the news about Chen Qun, he was almost not surprised at all. He even thought it was just an unexpected and reasonable thing.

Chen Qun woke up the patient during the operation. Most doctors, including himself, guessed that this might happen.But now that it really happened, Chen Qun, who was the chief surgeon, was not so spontaneous, thinking that it was just an accident, an accident for which he didn't know the specific reason.

This is simply a very rare thing.

It's just that Jiang Ming almost wanted to reprimand Chen Qun for his reaction.

Your invincible luck is not a joke, it is already so invincible that you have been nominated for one more Nobel Prize in Medicine. If it weren't for the current situation and a lot of nonsense profit distribution, he would have been the youngest winner in real terms.But even if you don't win an award, double nominations are considered the greatest honor.

What's more, there is one biggest difference between Chen Qun's double nomination and other double nominations, that is, the industries nominated by Chen Qun are actually in his hands, with great influence and countless benefits in his pocket .

Money is the boss, this is the development model that all doctors dream of.

Of course, Jiang Ming also understood Chen Qun's worry, that is, he rescued another vegetative patient, not again and again, but again and again, no matter from the point of view of luck or science.Chen Qun has the ability to awaken vegetative patients, which will become a dazzling light that runs faster than light and spread to the whole world.

At that time, the number of patients sent here was not just a few, but countless times more.

But for doctors, the field of the brain can only be regarded as a virgin land that has just opened up, and knows very little. Chen Qun naturally knows his bottom line and ability range, and he is unwilling to be burdened by a false name. It is also very understandable to talk about things in the name of scientific experts.

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Ming said directly to Chen Qun.

"This patient is from my department, and I am the attending doctor. You are just the co-operative surgeon who assisted me. I will take the blame. As for your surgical error, I am afraid no one will blame you, not even your family members. Thank you for your mistake this time. This is a natural disaster that cannot be resisted by humans, so don’t blame yourself. I will come over right away to discuss this issue with you."

However, Jiang Ming still considered that Chen Qun became famous at a young age and never made any mistakes. Now that a good situation happened due to an accident, he felt that he still needed to report to Liu Yang.As for doing ideological work, letting Old Ghost Yang go is enough.Anyway, Old Ghost Yang is an old man, coupled with high prestige, it is completely qualified to encourage young people to relieve their psychological pressure.

This matter will give Liu Yang a headache.

When Jiang Ming came to the new hospital here by subway, he saw Chen Qun standing in the operating room in a daze. Dozens of different data appeared on the big screen in front of him. It seemed that Chen Qun had already solved the problem.

"Xiao Chen, have you found the reason why the patient woke up?"

"Yes, if the theory is not wrong, it should confirm what I feared, that is, this old grandma who has been sleeping for many years, because of my operation error, the paraganglioma in her body caused a rupture. Paraganglioma It’s all dopamine in there, and there’s a little bit of leakage, which is the root cause of the tumor you found there.”

As soon as Jiang Ming heard Chen Qun's reasons, he immediately understood that what Chen Qun said was completely correct.

Qi Hong who was sorting out the data on the side also took out the data to speak.

"The tumor ruptured and released a large amount of dopamine. The patient's spinal puncture just now showed that the concentration of dopamine in the spinal fluid exceeded 1.2 micrograms, that is, her brain was immersed in dopamine. These high concentrations of dopamine can stimulate the brain and make People wake up. This is also the most effective way to forcibly wake up a vegetative person in the past, injecting a high concentration of adrenaline to stimulate the brain to produce a large amount of dopamine."

As soon as Jiang Ming understood this truth, he told Chen Qun dumbfounded.

"So, it's still a matter of luck, it's just an accident. It's the equivalent of a mistake during an earthquake, it's the equivalent of injecting a lot of hormones into the patient's head. As soon as the dopamine wears off, the patient's brain returns to normal. Stop all brain activity."

"No, the situation is not limited to this aspect. The concentration of dopamine in the patient's body that wakes her up is also harmful to her body. It also means that we cannot reproduce the surge of dopamine, and she will fall into a deep sleep again. If we continue to maintain If the dopamine concentration is high, the patient will die."

Jiang Ming laughed and waved to Chen Qun and the other young people.

"Let's go see the patients! Even though you think this is nothing to discover and study a loneliness, it is actually very useful. It can reunite the family for half a day. I think that this half-day reunion, It’s already hard to find.”

When Chen Qun and the others came to the intensive care unit, they saw that the room was already crowded with seven or eight people. It seemed that all three generations of grandparents and grandchildren had arrived.

As soon as these family members saw Jiang Ming bringing a few doctors over, they immediately stopped their movements, quietly stepped aside, and let a few people walk to the old lady's bed.

Jiang Ming took a deep breath and calmly explained the situation to the surrounding family members and patients on the bed.

"I'm very sorry, I came here to disturb you when your family was happy, because we have some bad news to inform you. The old man's sobriety is temporary. She has a strong eczema due to the dopamine in the tumor entering the brain. She woke up after being stimulated. But as time went by, the dopamine level in her body dropped sharply, and when it returned to a normal state, the patient would fall into a deep sleep again."

"Doctor, can't we keep injecting this substance and keep my grandma awake?"

"No, high-concentration dopamine stimulation is very harmful to the body. If the stimulation lasts for more than 72 hours, it is almost irreversible, and it will lead to complete paralysis of the entire nervous system and hormone system, which is brain death."

"Then after she fell asleep, will she wake up again in the future?"

"This was actually just an accident, an accident caused by many factors. If dopamine is used for similar stimulation next time, the patient's body can no longer bear it. In other words, she will not be able to wake up after falling asleep again."

"Then how long will my grandma be awake?"

"It's only four or five hours, I won't bother you!"
