Chapter 465: Confirmed Dissection!

Remember [New] in one second!      Upon hearing this, Lu Chen immediately rushed to the ward.

Mei Youjun followed closely.

Chest pain recurred, this is not a good sign!

…

Arrived at the ward, the patient was lying on the bed, closing his eyes tightly.

Lu Chen looked at his life value, which dropped by two points!

This is really difficult!

"Give me some more painkillers!" Lu Chen said in a deep voice.

If the pain is severe, it is very likely to excite the body's stress response and cause adverse effects.

Pain relief can minimize this risk.

However, not all pain can be treated with painkillers!

For example, some unexplained abdominal pain cannot be relieved, otherwise it may cover up the symptoms and cause more serious consequences.

"Don't just relieve pain." Mei Youjun said, "Hurry up and lower the blood pressure, and then do a bronchoscopy!"

Lu Chen frowned and said nothing.

The cause of the patient's chest pain is not clear at present.

It may be the inflammatory exudation of pneumonia, leading to pleurisy, causing chest pain.

It is also possible that it is cancer pain caused by lung cancer.

It is more likely that it is chest pain caused by other fatal diseases.

…

After taking painkillers, the patient's left chest pain gradually eased.

After Lu Chen carefully asked, he found that the patient had pain in the past few days, but it did not worsen, so he did not pay special attention to it.

Back to the doctor's office.

Lu Chen handed over the patient's condition to the doctor on duty at noon.

After changing his white coat, he was about to leave, but Mei Yejun suddenly appeared.

"Junior sister, what's wrong? Your father is not in pain again, right?"

Mei Yejun shook his head and stared at Lu Chen closely, "Senior brother, do you think my father really needs to do aortic CTA?"

Lu Chen looked into Mei Yejun's eyes, his eyes were unusually firm.

"Do it!"

He had already thought about it. If the final result was not aortic dissection, he would at most bear the stigma of a quack doctor.

But if it was really aortic dissection... that was a living life!

Mei Yejun bit her lips gently, and the hesitation and helplessness in her eyes suddenly disappeared.

"Brother, then take my dad down for a checkup!"

Lu Chen was stunned, thinking he had heard wrongly.

"You don't listen to your uncle?"

This girl is really sentimental, not listening to her relatives, but listening to herself?

Mei Yejun shook her head: "Brother, I don't care what my relatives think, I care about my dad. As you said before, if there is no problem after the checkup, everyone is happy. If there is a problem, it must be dealt with as soon as possible!"

Lu Chen nodded, "Okay, then I will put on a white coat now and take your dad for a checkup!"

"Yeah." Mei Yejun nodded, "By the way, brother, there is actually another reason. I have heard of you before."

"Ah?" Lu Chen was stunned, "When?"

"I am very familiar with Sister Yao Jie. We were assigned to the same dormitory before." Mei Yejun said softly, "Before she went to Kyoto, she kept mentioning you in front of me."

...

Got a positive answer from Mei Yejun.

Lu Chen immediately put on a white coat and took Wang Defa, who had not left yet, to push the bed to the CT room.

Mei Youjun also followed everyone.

Along the way, his face was not very good.

His niece did not listen to him, but listened to an outsider!

And he was a cardiologist. If he told this to others, he would lose face.

"Xiaojun, why don't you listen to me?"

Mei Youjun asked in a low voice.

Mei Yejun shook his head and said, "Uncle, if there is no problem with the examination, it can be regarded as excluding a disease. I will admit that I have spent the examination fee! But what if there is really a problem after the examination?"

Hearing what Mei Yejun said, Mei Youjun shook his head helplessly and did not say much.

Everyone came to the CT room, and the nurse who gave the injection was ready.

CTA is different from ordinary CT.

CTA requires the injection of contrast agent and then imaging in the blood vessels.

So it is necessary to inject an injection into the patient's artery and then inject contrast agent.

After Lu Chen and Wang Defa pushed the patient into the CT examination room, the two came to the operating room.

"What's the patient's condition?"

"High blood pressure, chest pain, suspected aortic dissection." Lu Chen said.

"Wow, there are so many aortic dissections in recent years!" The technician in the operating room shook his head and said, "I can diagnose one every few days."

"Was this disease rare before?" Wang Defa whispered.

"It was very rare before!" said the technician.

Lu Chen said, "Now the living environment has changed, and many types of diseases have also changed. In addition, there was no CTA examination equipment before, and many aortic dissections were treated as acute myocardial infarction."

You know, aortic dissection and acute myocardial infarction are two diseases with completely different treatment methods!

Myocardial infarction is a blockage of blood vessels, which requires anticoagulation.

Dissection is a rupture of blood vessels, which requires hemostasis.

The outcome of treating aortic dissection as acute myocardial infarction can be imagined!

...

After the nurse gave Mei Yejun's father an injection, the technician began his own operation.

On the screen in the operating room, the cross-sectional image of the patient began to appear.

Lu Chen stared at the screen closely, afraid of missing any section.

“We’re almost at the aortic arch!”

Lu Chen's heart was in his throat.

The patient's aortic arch was intact, without any signs of dissection!

But dissection is not just in the aortic arch, but also in the thoracic aorta, abdominal aorta and other locations!

As the image moved down, suddenly, at the junction of the aortic arch and the thoracic aorta, Lu Chen saw a torn blood vessel shadow!

"This is... dissection!" The technician also said.

Although the technician was not qualified to issue a report, he had been working on the front line of CT for many years, so he had naturally seen many similar films.

Lu Chen did not have the joy of a correct diagnosis now.

Thinking of Mei Yejun outside the operating room, he still felt a little heavy in his heart!

"Okay, we're done. Go to the examination room and help the patient down." The technician whispered, "Be careful with the patient with dissection!"

"Okay, thank you, teacher."

When Lu Chen came out of the operating room, Mei Yejun immediately came up to him and asked anxiously, "Brother, what's the result?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Lu Chen shook his head slightly, "Send your dad back first."

Seeing Lu Chen's expression, Mei Yejun's heart sank.

Mei Youjun on the side was also stunned. Could it be that this kid really got lucky?

...

Everyone carefully pushed the patient back to the ward. UU Reading www.uuｋａnshu.net

Along the way, no one talked much, as if they all understood something in their hearts.

After settling the patient in the ward, Mei Youjun and Mei Yejun came to the doctor's office.

Lu Chen turned on the computer's examination system and called up the patient's aortic CTA image.

When the patient's thoracic aorta image appeared, Mei Youjun's face became extremely ugly.

Mei Yejun still couldn't understand this image, but when he saw his uncle's expression, he understood everything.

"Brother, is it really a mezzanine?"

Lu Chen nodded slowly.

At the same time, a prompt appeared on Lu Chen's system panel.

"Congratulations, the system upgrade completion rate has increased!"

However, Lu Chen did not feel the slightest bit of joy.

On the contrary, when everyone learned the diagnosis of mezzanine, Lu Chen could clearly feel the sadness in Mei Yejun's heart.
