Chapter 598 Intervertebral Disc Replacement

This time, Chen Qun worked very hard to operate the manipulator remotely. Both physically and mentally, it was more tiring than doing it for three days and three nights. He was afraid that if he made a slight mistake, the patient would die directly on the operating table.So his movements are very "slow" and he strives for stability. Even if the signal suddenly disappears, nothing out of the ordinary will happen.

But for Victor, he was in charge of remotely directing his doctor on the Caribbean island to assist Chen Qun to complete the operation.In the beginning, Chen Qun couldn't cooperate with him a little bit, but he is the most powerful neurologist in the world. After adjusting his mentality a little, he understood the root cause of Chen Qun's operation.

Chen Qun tried his best to ensure that the operation could be completed, and at the same time, he would not screw up the operation due to machine or system errors.In fact, in this kind of remote surgery, the signal has a little delay, the interval is about half a second, and Chen Qun directly positioned this time as a one-second delay, try to slow down as much as possible, so that the doctors over there can also keep up.

The most reassuring thing is that every time Chen Qun performs a key action, he will remind him to let the doctor assisting over there get ready, so he slows down his rhythm by three or four beats.

Of course, this feeling is only for those who are familiar with Chen Qun. For others, Chen Qun's remote operation is a little faster than that of ordinary doctors, and it is as accurate and stable as a living person, without any mistakes. .

"Scraper, give 1 minute to prepare for the replacement and repair of the third vertebra."

Chen Qun gave instructions to doctors thousands of miles away in calm English with a pure London accent.The heart that was originally tense gradually calmed down and returned to its usual best state.

In the picture that appeared on the big screen, an equipment nurse wearing a mask couldn't help but say something in front of the camera.

"This is simply incredible. After replacing two biochemical discs, the bleeding did not exceed 20CC. The machine is indeed more accurate than humans."

Victor also laughed out loud at the camera when he heard his nurse's praise.

"You're wrong, it's because the person who operates the machine is amazing, and it has nothing to do with the machine. It may be unimaginable to other people. But for Chen, in his operation, everything is possible. Possibly. He is a miracle worker. For Charlie, he also needs a miracle. Prepare the third intervertebral disc, check the data on your side again, and test the patient’s pulse and blood pressure by himself. result."

There was a data display problem just now. Chen Qun noticed this phenomenon and found out that the data transmission on both sides was different.I don't know what went wrong, but Sir Victor simply adopted the most primitive method to solve this problem.

Chen Qun also had a feeling of sympathy for Victor's improvisation. In many cases, electronic equipment is not so reliable.But the cornerstone of his operation is the remote operation of electronic information.As long as there is no problem with the robot arm, everything else can be solved.

Victor arranged manual testing, which not only gave people peace of mind, but also ensured that the operation was foolproof.

"Replace the NO.12 scalpel, turn on the brightness of the shadowless lamp by one more gear, and tilt the angle by about [-] degrees, so that I have a clearer vision."

Chen Qun made a slight adjustment, causing Victor to look up at him involuntarily.

As Chen Qun, who changed the scalpel temporarily, he naturally knew why Sir Victor was looking at him, and immediately gave a small explanation.

"Two intervertebral discs have been done, and I am more used to this rhythm. It is more suitable to use the NO.12 scalpel, and the wound should be smaller."

After Chen Qun's manipulator was fitted with a surgical blade, he gently adjusted the angle of the manipulator, and slowly cut open the gap in the vertebrae, exposing the spinal cord capsule wrapped in the bone, and the white spinal cord exposed a trace of off-white under the blade.

Creatures like humans are really miraculous. They have evolved a protective device called bones, which protect the spinal cord inside and ensure that the operation of the whole body will not cause interruption of information transmission even if it is subjected to a large impact.

Chen Qun also admired Sir Victor's genius surgical plan.He knew that if Sir Victor operated on the operating table himself, it might be possible to complete it.But if it is replaced by a robot, the probability of completion is no more than [-]%.

But for me, hundreds of hours of training are necessary to ensure that the completion of the operation can reach 3 to [-]%.Perhaps it can be said that for any talented surgeon in the world, there is no habit of doing surgery with real patients.The best one is the simulated organ printed by Hojo Hojo with a [-]D printer, which can help a little.

But for surgeons, there is a huge gap between such practice and real surgical practice.

The fundamental reason why Sir Victor chose him was not to set any world record, nor to demonstrate a new operation.He just wanted to save his loved ones and ensure the success of the operation.

He is Sir Victor's best choice.

Chen Qun suddenly remembered that his operation was purely free, not even charging a penny. Even Hojo Hiroun agreed to provide a satellite signal channel, which was actually free of charge.

This is just a private operation.No other factors were mixed.

Chen Qun operated the mechanical arm, accurately and slowly placed the imitated intervertebral disc made of a special material into the original position of the spine, and suddenly understood.For Wolverine's bone replacement surgery in the movie, it's theoretically possible.But it takes a superhero with Wolverine's natural healing powers to ensure the patient is alive when the surgery is done.

Otherwise, he has already replaced four intervertebral discs, so it is theoretically possible to replace all of the spine.This is about decades of continuous accumulation of technological levels, and it is possible to reach that day.Just for the replacement of human organs, if the spine, the second device of the nerve center, is conquered, then the next step is to replace the brain and skull.

Perhaps, after 200 years, human beings can really complete the replacement of the brain and skull, and perhaps the brain-in-a-cylinder depicted in horror science fiction may also appear.At that time, the setting of RoboCop will also become a reality.

Suddenly, Chen Qun felt that the easiest technology tree for human beings to achieve immortality was probably mechanical immortality rather than biochemical immortality.No matter how biotechnology develops and how DNA is deciphered, it still cannot solve the problem of cell aging. This is a physical law that no one can compete with.

But uploading thoughts and turning yourself into data may be the easiest way to live forever.But how to ensure that the data is uploaded by yourself?

Chen Qun was a little distracted thinking about it, and quickly stopped the movements in his hands.

His pause immediately attracted Victor's attention, and he quickly asked.

"Chen, what's the problem? Did you stop the surgery?"

Chen Qun thought for a while, pointed to the appearance of a vertebra exposed on the screen, and made a suggestion.

"Mr. Victor, look at the last vertebra, which is actually intact. It's just a piece of hyperplastic bone that grew out and covered it, causing lesions in CT. We only need to cover a small piece of the outside If the bone tissue is removed, there is no need for replacement surgery. If there is no replacement, then no replacement, this is the guiding principle of surgical transplantation.”

While the two were talking, George Kate, who was sitting behind the glass, suddenly had an unprecedented idea in his mind.In many cases, the operation of the robotic arm is more stable than that of the human body, which can just solve his biggest shortcoming in surgical skills. If he uses the robotic arm to perform surgery after a period of training, wouldn't it be more stable?

Especially after using the manipulator, the cost of his surgery can be greatly increased.This may allow him to find a more reasonable economic growth point.

Besides, I heard from people here that Sanjing Hospital’s robot has no intention of publicizing it to the outside world.Perhaps, I can act as the spokesperson for this instrument, free of charge this time, and see if I can get the North American sales rights for this instrument?

Thinking of this, George felt a headache, knowing that standing in front of him was not Chen Qun, a not-so-famous Chinese doctor, but Sir Victor, a distinguished professor of the Mayo Clinic, who had his own hospital and client system.

He is the one who stopped himself from getting rich!
Perhaps, there is some way to give up or lose the right to sell this robotic arm!
