A doctor who travels through two eras

Chapter 205: Invention of the Broad Street Suture

Lin Sanqi was a professional, and although he obtained a miscellaneous diploma in 59, in another era, he was a regular student of a five-year prestigious university and had solid theoretical knowledge.

So when he thought of suture, N different suture methods appeared in his mind, as well as the corresponding indications and advantages and disadvantages.

Nowadays, many people in society look down on the five-year undergraduate program, as if they were looking down on technical secondary school students. This is actually wrong.

A five-year undergraduate program requires one more year of study than other subjects, especially in prestigious universities. The level of these medical students is very high.

However, the subsequent expansion of enrollment led to the "devaluation of diplomas". The minimum requirement for county hospitals was a master's degree, the minimum requirement for municipal hospitals was a doctorate, and overseas study experience was required for hospitals at the provincial level and above.

In fact, this may not be of great significance.

There was a hospital that was exposed, where more than 20 doctors had diplomas from a fake university in the Philippines, and even if they had a background of studying abroad, they could work in a provincial hospital. (There are many domestic universities and hospitals with similar diplomas)
How good is this doctor? Would you dare to let a doctor who graduated from a fake university see you?

Outsiders have no idea. They see the man sitting there in a decent manner and the introduction at the door looks impressive, so they think they have met a miracle doctor.

For example, undergraduates from Peking University and Tsinghua University are more outstanding than postgraduates from other schools. Why is that? You will know if you think about it carefully.

The biggest difference between Lin Sanqi and the graduate students is that he has too little practical experience.

After one year of internship, you have seen everything you should see and learned everything you should learn. Some teachers are bold and dare to let you be the main operator, while some teachers are timid and only let you be an assistant.

Unlike graduate students, who follow their supervisors every day and have many opportunities to get started, the supervisor will be willing to cover for you if something goes wrong, after all, they have a master-disciple relationship.

Undergraduate interns and their teaching teachers have a temporary cooperative relationship and have no emotional connection with each other. If something goes wrong, they will be fooled by their teaching teachers. There are many interns who have been framed by their teaching teachers, and Lin Sanqi is one of them.

As for scientific research, they are all similar. Graduate students' thesis are also pieced together.

Medicine is such an advanced field. Not to mention a master's degree, even if you have a doctorate, how many people can come up with anything?

There are so many papers published in China every year, and the total number has surpassed that of the United States, ranking first in the world. But how many of them have international influence or groundbreaking significance? Has anyone ever won a Nobel Prize in science and engineering?

The entire domestic medical community conducts scientific research just to cope with promotions and graduation. Most of the papers are bought and can be published as long as money is paid.

So don’t underestimate undergraduates. As long as they make up for their shortcomings in thesis writing, they can also be very awesome.

For example, Lin Sanqi made an unexpected discovery 59. As long as he was brave enough, he would have plenty of opportunities to take action.

Although the operating room was temporary and could not meet the operating requirements, Lin Sanqi was ready to show off his skills in front of everyone.

The first needle he chose was to insert a needle horizontally about 1 cm away from the tendon section. He then put the needle into the coil, tightened it to lock a small amount of tendon epithelium and tendon bundle, then inserted the needle longitudinally into the tendon and inserted the needle from the palm side of the tendon section.

Then pierce the opposite tendon end, insert the needle on the palm side in the same way, pull out the needle about 1 cm away from the end, and pull it tight to make the two ligament sections fit together. Cut one end of the loop, and pass another needle horizontally nearby. After removing the needle, tie a knot with the cut thread.

Others may not understand the significance of Lin Sanqi's acupuncture, but they felt that the boy's movements were a little unfamiliar at the beginning, but he quickly adjusted himself and became as easy as flowing water.

But from Ye Yongan's professional perspective, he was surprised to find that Lin Sanqi's ligament suture was completely different from that of their Union Hospital.

Not only were the techniques different, Ye Yongan also noticed that Lin Sanqi's suturing method seemed to be more scientific and could better keep the ruptured ligament stable.

How can this be?

Could it be that in the past ten years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a lack of communication between the medical communities at home and abroad, leading to a technological gap?

The more Ye Yongan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. His strong curiosity made him ask directly:
"Comrade Xiaolin, is there any particular reason for the way you sew? Why do you insert the needle here first? What's the difference with the Bonnell suture?"

Lin Sanqi had just sewed a palmar carpal ligament and was very happy. He felt that he was a real genius and could do it on his own without the guidance of a teacher.

Now hearing that the famous vice president of Union Medical College wanted to ask him for advice, Lin Sanqi's vanity became even stronger.

"Dean Ye, the Bonnell suture you mentioned has a high tensile strength at the tendon and ligament joints, but it is very easy to cause strangulation at the tendon joints, which has a great impact on local blood circulation, is not conducive to tendon healing, and can also cause extensive adhesions to surrounding tissues."

(Bunnell suture is a transliteration. It was invented by a foreign doctor named Bunnell in 1918. It was also the mainstream ligament and tendon suture method in the world at that time. Readers should not question it and think that it is impossible for a foreign name to appear in China, otherwise it would be an enemy spy or something.)
Ye Yongan nodded after listening to this. As a senior surgeon in China, he was more familiar with the disadvantages of the Bonnell suture method.

"So the Broad Street suture you mentioned is an improved method you invented? Why do you think it is better than the Bonnell method?"

Lin Sanqi knew the future development of medicine and knew that the real Kuanjie suture method was actually called the "Tsukishita suture method", which was the mainstream suture method in the future, so he started to brag without blushing: "President Ye, you see, the Bonnell suture method is to pass two threads through the broken ends on both sides, and then tighten and tie them, so that the knot sinks into the surface of the tendon. This knot is the weakness of this suture method, because the knot sinking into the tendon will cause the tension to decrease, affecting the efficacy.

The Broad Street suture we invented has the same firmness as the Bonnell suture, but the needle is inserted here to anastomose the broken ends. This not only has the best effect on preventing the broken ends from splitting, but also has the least effect on the blood supply in the tendon, and will not cause the broken ends of the tendon to get stuck, making it easier to recover. "

Vice President Ye's eyes brightened after listening to this. For such an old expert, many technical problems can be understood with just a little understanding.

At the same time, Ye Yongan's curiosity grew stronger:
"Comrade Xiaolin, your method is great. Oh, why do you call it the Broad Street Stitching Method? Is it the latest international invention?"

Who is Dean Shen? He is an old fox. When he heard the word Kuanjie, he thought of "Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital". Since Lin Sanqi has already started bragging, he will naturally brag to the sky.

"Old Ye, you don't understand. What do these two words 'Kuanjie' mean? Think about it, where are you now?"

"Kuanjie, Kuanjie? Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital?" Ye Yongan's face changed when he said this.

At this time, Dean Shen's mentality was very good. Instead, he said with a smile:

"That is the suturing method invented by our Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital. Of course, it should be named the Kuanjie Suturing Method. This is our first invention and it is internationally leading, hehe."

Lin Sanqi quickly added:

"President Ye, our Broad Street suture method can not only be used to suture tendons and ligaments, but can also be widely used in neurological surgery. It has a wide range of uses."

Vice President Ye was already stunned, muttering: "How is this possible, how is this possible?"

The Chinese people during this period had a strong sense of national honor and always wanted to invent or create something and then bring it to the international arena to win glory for the country.

The same is true in the medical community. Everyone hopes that our country will invent a miracle drug or a new surgical procedure that will become internationally famous.

But how can creation be so easy? Even top western medicine hospitals like Peking Union Medical College Hospital don’t have the ability to do this, but a traditional Chinese medicine hospital has invented a completely new suturing method?
Vice President Ye Yongan could not accept it either emotionally or rationally.

Dean Shen was even more proud, and he stood there with his legs shaking:

"How can it be impossible? The facts are all in front of us, Comrade Ye, now you know the gap between your Union Hospital and our Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital, right? Our Chinese medicine is better than yours, even our Western medicine is better than yours. I really don't know why the country allocates so much funding to you every year! Humph."

Ye Yongan suddenly thought that if this "Kuan Street Suture Method" was really invented by himself, then he must catch the young man in front of him.

As long as Dr. Kobayashi is transferred to work at Union Hospital, and the paper is packaged and submitted to international medical journals, Union Hospital will be proud.

So Ye Yongan looked at Lin Sanqi with eager eyes:
"Comrade Xiaolin, on behalf of Union Hospital, I formally invite you to work at Union Hospital. You must have heard of our Union Hospital. We have the most advanced equipment and technical strength in the country, which will definitely give you more power.

Talents like you shouldn't stay at Kuanjie Chinese Medicine Hospital. You see, Chinese medicine hospitals don't even have an operating room, and they don't have antibiotics. Chinese medicine is completely different from our Western medicine. Come to Union Medical College Hospital, and we will satisfy any requests you have."

Dean Shen's beard stood up in anger when he heard this:

"Bullshit, Ye Yongan, are you a human being? Comrade Xiaolin is a talent trained by our Chinese Medicine Hospital, how could he possibly go to your Union Hospital?"

When the people outside heard this, they were all outraged:

"That's right, Xiao Qi is from our Kuanjie Hospital, what is your Union Hospital?"

"Vice President Ye, I think you should just join our Kuanjie Hospital!"

Lin Kucan said nothing. In fact, he was a little confused. A top western medicine hospital like Union Medical College invited his son to work there, but their Lin family was a family of traditional Chinese medicine. Five generations ago, all of them were traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. When had they ever learned western medicine?
Dean Shen cursed while glancing at Lin Sanqi.

He would never let Lin Sanqi go, not only because of Lin Sanqi's medical skills, but also because Lin Sanqi was a talented person who could get food. Letting such a talented person go? Unless Shen Guoming had a problem with his brain.

Lin Sanqi didn't want to leave either, as he knew his mediocre level.

Peking Union Medical College is a monument in the domestic medical community. If I go there, I will be exposed. I don't have the confidence.

"President Shen, don't worry. I am a Kuanjie person in life and a Kuanjie ghost in death. I will never go to Union Hospital."

Before Dean Shen could be happy, Section Chief Quan asked weakly:
"Stop arguing. Have you forgotten that there is a patient next to you who urgently needs surgery?" (End of this chapter)
