Chapter 1663: 【1663】Critical medicine that burns money
The cardiopulmonary circulator was born in cardiac surgery at first, so he is usually selected from the cardiac surgery team. In the case of a shortage of people in some small hospitals, only a surgical anesthesiologist or a nurse in the operating room can do this job part-time through simple training. It is conceivable that the domestic cardiopulmonary bypass division seems to be a position that does not receive much attention. This is not the case in developed countries abroad. Cardiovascular circulators must go through strict special practice and training before they can take up their posts.
In some respects, medical education in China is more outdated than in foreign countries, mainly because some systems are always half a beat behind. This has led to some medical students wanting to study specialized medical sub-fields and employment, which are not provided by this channel.
Foreign countries will attach importance to cardiopulmonary bypass, which is inseparable from the more advanced critical care medical technology in developed countries. Cardiopulmonary rescue is the most important part in the field of critical care medicine. The death of the human body in the end is the death of failure, basically the death of heart and lung failure. Cardiopulmonary bypass is just one of the most effective means to save the heart and lungs.
In China, ordinary people have no money to enter icu, so the hospital does not dare to set up more icu beds and will lose money. For example, the ECMO extracorporeal membrane oxygenation technology, which is more commonly used in foreign countries, has not been studied and used in China. This thing is going to cost money. The common people in developed countries can afford it, but the common people in our country generally cannot afford it.
Because of the wealth and the business volume of this wealthy patient, Guozhi can set up an independent cardiopulmonary bypass department for the first time in the country, and later the cardiopulmonary bypass center. There are many benefits for specialized hospitals to subdivide their specialties. Guozhi\'s cardiopulmonary bypass division is managed by the director of the cardiopulmonary bypass department, and there are a large group of colleagues in the same profession who brainstorm ideas and give the surgeon the greatest support, so that the surgeon can concentrate more on the operation. As a result, it has become a leader in this specialized field in the country.
Cardiovascular disease, to put it bluntly, is also a semi-rich disease.
The National Association and other hospitals are not. They have to draw doctors from their own departments to train their own cardiopulmonary bypass specialists. There is no independent cardiopulmonary bypass specialist, and the surgeons themselves need to lead and worry about these matters. There is no special department in professional cardiopulmonary rescue, and it must be half behind Guozhi in terms of business ability. The National Association teacher thinks of these words, and it is estimated that he will suffer from heart disease again.
Dr. Pang is a cardiopulmonary circulator working in the cardiopulmonary bypass department. He routinely takes care of critically ill patients who need cardiopulmonary bypass support in the department ward. At the same time, he will be responsible for the operation of cardiopulmonary bypass in today\'s cardiac surgery and support the surgical team.
It was such a rare learning opportunity, Xie Wanying immediately went over to apprentice.
Dr. Pang led her to the next operating room to prepare.
Mr. Pang is a very nice person. While busy with her work, she gave her a brief introduction: "This is an extracorporeal circulation machine, an artificial heart-lung machine."
There is a difference between an artificial heart-lung machine and an ECMO. Basically, artificial heart-lung machines are used in surgery.
Thank you for your support! ! ! Good night dears~
