A doctor who travels through two eras

Ta-ta-ta~~
When Lin Qiaozhi heard someone knocking on the door, she thought it was a patient, so she quickly straightened up, smiled and greeted the person.

"Hello."

Lin Sanqi nodded and bowed quickly: "Hello, Dean Lin, hello, let me introduce myself. I am Lin Sanqi from the Capital Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and this is my fiancée Pan Ye."

Although Lin Qiaozhi was old, she had a very quick mind and immediately realized who the person was. She stood up and said:

"It's Dean Lin. Hello. I know you, Comrade Pan Ye. We were in correspondence a few days ago."

Pan Ye nodded excitedly: "Yes, Dean Lin, uh, well, the two Deans Lin met, hehe. This time, Sanqi and I came here with the medical records and wanted to consult you."

Lin Qiaozhi had a lot of experience, but she was very humble:
"What's the point of asking for advice? We are all in the same industry, so let's discuss this together. Dean Lin..."

Lin Sanqi quickly laughed like a little eunuch:

"No, no, no, you are Dean Lin, I am Xiao Lin in front of you, you can call me Xiao Lin or Xiao Qi."

Although Lin Qiaozhi was polite, she was not a pedantic person and did not like to be too polite, so she pointed at the stool next to her:

"Okay, Xiaolin is Xiaolin. We are from the same family, so I won't be polite to you, old lady. When I saw you two, I felt the meaning of young and promising. There will be successors for our country's medical and health care. By the way, Xiaolin, I heard that you are working on a tuberculosis project now?"

“Yes, this is what I am currently working on.”

"How is it going? The health system is telling you that you have a secret recipe passed down from your ancestors, using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment? How is the efficacy now? What is the cure rate?"

The old lady's repeated questions sounded very straightforward, and Lin Sanqi also heard that the old lady seemed to have doubts about the ability of traditional Chinese medicine to cure tuberculosis.

It's no wonder. The old lady graduated with a doctorate from Peking Union Medical College and studied decent "modern medicine" (Western medicine). Later, she studied obstetrics and gynecology at Manchester Medical School, London Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, and University of Chicago Medical School.

So the old lady has seen the world, and understands the harm of tuberculosis better than others, and knows how tuberculosis is treated abroad better than others.

Because of this knowledge, I doubt that TCM can cure tuberculosis. (Cure, not treat)
Lin Sanqi was not going to beat around the bush, so for the first time he revealed some internal information of the Chinese medicine hospital to outsiders.

"President Lin, it is like this. Currently, our hospital has effectively managed 7800 tuberculosis patients through outpatient and inpatient services. This number is more than I originally planned. Our ultimate goal is 5000 effective cases.

The more patients there are, the more credible the data will be in the future. We are now very close to it. We estimate that after the Chinese New Year, next spring, we will be able to collect enough data, and relevant papers will be produced accordingly.

At present, 4900 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis have been cured. Of course, this does not mean that our cure rate is not high, but the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis requires a period of 3 to 6 months, and some refractory pulmonary tuberculosis may require an extension of 12 months. "

Ordinary people of this era had not experienced the baptism of antibiotics, so the quadruple therapy was very effective.

A disease that used to take at least six months to cure, now tuberculosis bacteria can be found in just three months.

When the old lady heard this, she narrowed her eyes:
"You have treated 7800 people in half a year? This data is very solid. The key is that 4900 people were cured. Xiaolin, this data surprised me. Do you mean cure?"

Lin Sanqi nodded and answered very seriously:

"Yes, it means a complete cure. No tuberculosis bacilli can be found in the sputum. We check each patient three times. In addition, we also take X-rays of each patient throughout the entire process, from admission to cure, and use evidence to speak for the entire process of disease evolution."

Old Mrs. Lin was a little confused. She blinked and asked another question:
"That's not right, Xiaolin. You are a Chinese medicine hospital. Shouldn't you use the traditional Chinese medicine method of observation, auscultation, inquiry and palpation to treat tuberculosis? Why do I hear you talking about sputum culture and X-rays? Aren't these our Western medicine methods? What are your medications?"

Lin Sanqi glanced at Pan Ye, feeling a little proud:
"Director Lin, it's not stipulated that only Chinese medicine can be used in Chinese medicine hospitals, right? In fact, the four drugs I use are isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol, all of which are pure Western medicines. But at present, I only have patents for rifampicin and ethambutol, so I made a workaround and directly made all the drugs into a four-in-one drug, which I announced to the public as the tuberculosis pill. It is currently the mainstream drug used in the treatment of tuberculosis in our Chinese medicine hospital."

Old Mrs. Lin was delighted when she heard this, and now she looked at Lin Sanqi with a different look:
"I see, I see. No wonder you were able to become the vice president at such a young age and become the youngest director of a provincial and ministerial hospital in the country. Xiaolin, you value patents. From this detail, we can see that you are not limited to this small piece of land in China."

Don't tell lies in front of a real person. Lin Sanqi knew that Mrs. Lin was a very reliable person, so he told her his plan.

"I invented a drug to treat tuberculosis. From the perspective of medicine, I want to benefit not only the 600 million compatriots in China, but also the billions of people around the world. In the words of Western medicine, it is fraternity."

Old Mrs. Lin graduated from Union Medical College, which was originally founded by Americans. Naturally, she strongly agrees with the concept of "universal love".

"Well said. As doctors, we should be kind and compassionate, cultivate ourselves and help others. This is our responsibility."

Lin Sanqi sat up straight and continued with his true intention:

"While being philanthropic, I also want to consider our national conditions. Dean Lin, I think our country is still in great difficulty and there is far from enough food. On the premise of being healthy, people need to have living supplies to ensure their survival.

So I hope that my country can become the number one country in tuberculosis treatment. We should not only export our clinical research and treatment concepts, but also export a large number of tuberculosis drugs in exchange for more food and foreign exchange.”

When Mrs. Lin heard this, she slammed the table excitedly:
"Okay, Xiaolin, you're right. Just based on what you said, you should be the leader of the health department. You have ideas, methods, and vision. You are truly a rare talent."

Lin Sanqi was so proud of being praised by this legendary old lady in the medical field that he was almost cocky.

"Hehe, no, no, this is just my personal ambition. Whether I can accomplish this or not depends on the cooperation of the country. I definitely can't do it with my own ability."

Mrs. Lin waved her hand:
"Xiao Lin, I'm glad you can tell me the truth. Others don't understand, but I do. If you can really cure tuberculosis and hold the patents for two drugs, if you go to Europe and the United States, luxury cars and villas will be no problem at all, which will be more beneficial to you personally.

But you still stayed in China, did not go abroad, and did not seek personal benefits. Because of this, I admire you even more. How many of the Peking Union Medical College doctors who were in the same batch as me are still staying in China now? Alas. "

The old lady looked at her watch and stood up.

"Oh, it's almost 1pm. Sorry, it's all my fault for being so long-winded. Let's go to the cafeteria of our obstetrics and gynecology hospital today. I'll treat you."

Lin Sanqi also stood up, and Pan Ye quickly followed suit.

"Okay, then today we will try the cooking skills of the chef in the cafeteria of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital."

Mrs. Lin was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Xiao Lin, you can't have a reception dinner in our obstetrics and gynecology hospital."

More than ten minutes later, Lin Sanqi finally understood how the director of an obstetrics and gynecology hospital entertained guests.

Including old lady Lin, each person was given a bowl of "double-steamed rice", a plate of Northeastern pickled cabbage, and another person was given a sweet potato.

Lin Sanqi was a little surprised: "Dean Lin, do you usually eat this?"

He finally understood why the old lady was so skinny. Literally, she looked extremely frail.

Mrs. Lin said indifferently:
"Xiao Lin, don't underestimate this double steamed rice. It was invented by Tsinghua University. As you just said, Tsinghua University has the patent. I promoted double steamed rice when I was in Union Hospital. Last year, I was transferred to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital and brought double steamed rice with me." (End of this chapter)
