As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being fat.
After the opening of Four Seasons Hospital, not only did the number of outpatient visits set a new record for domestic hospitals, but the cure rate also set a new high, which is amazing.
Is it that the doctors at Four Seasons Hospital are just too skilled? Or do they have some other secret tricks?
For example, for the simplest case of pneumonia, Four Seasons Hospital mainly provides outpatient treatment. For minor cases, they will prescribe oral medications, while for more serious cases, they will give you a few bottles of fluids. Generally, hospitalization is not required.
As for other hospitals, when pneumonia is encountered, they generally recommend hospitalization, and the minimum stay is one week.
This is where the gap comes in.
For example, the postoperative infection rate in other hospitals is basically around 50%, while that in Four Seasons Hospital can be controlled within 15%.
Infection is a difficult hurdle that must be faced in hospitals, whether it is surgery, internal medicine, pediatrics, ENT or ophthalmology.
The mortality rate of infectious diseases in other hospitals is so high, but the mortality rate of Four Seasons Hospital is so low.
The "abnormal" data of Four Seasons Hospital naturally attracted the attention of other domestic hospitals, and then visiting groups and inspection teams came in droves under various banners.
Everyone wants to explore what is so magical about Four Seasons Hospital?
In fact, all of this depends on the "antibacterial drugs" that Chen Xia took out from the space hospital.
In 1991, domestic antibiotics were still limited to common penicillin, oxytetracycline, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and the like.
What do Four Seasons Hospital use? Even if they use β-lactam antibiotics, they don’t use ordinary penicillin. At least they use amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium. How can other hospitals compare?
There are also other second-generation and third-generation cephalosporins, such as cefuroxime, ceftriaxone, etc.
There are also third and fourth generation quinolones, such as levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, gatifloxacin, etc.; macrolides such as azithromycin, etc.
If even these antibiotics are ineffective, Chen Xia also prepared imipenem/cilastatin, meropenem, tigecycline, vancomycin, etc.
Well, once these special restricted antibiotics were available, what bacteria could not be killed in the 1990s? What infection could not be treated?
After all, patients of this era have not experienced the baptism of large amounts of antibiotics in later generations, and have not developed drug resistance. They are as pure as blank paper.
Inside the outpatient hall of Four Seasons Hospital
Kang Chengde, the deputy director of business, is receiving a delegation from the capital's health system.
These visitors were basically Kang Chengde’s former colleagues and friends, so they were extremely enthusiastic when they met him.
"Hey, Lao Kang, look at your rosy complexion. Isn't this like an old tree coming back to life in Yuezhou?"
"Go away, Qi Minghang, you're still a dog with no ivory in your mouth. Why did you all come here together this time? You were someone I couldn't invite before."
Kang Chengde was joking with President Qi of Peking University Third Hospital while looking at other old friends around him.
Dean Liu Junlin of Tiantan Hospital stood in the hospital's outpatient hall, his eyes filled with wonder.
"Magnificent, truly magnificent! The area of just this outpatient building at Four Seasons Hospital is equivalent to the size of our entire hospital. Hong Kong people are truly wealthy, truly wealthy."
The others also nodded, looking as if they had never seen the world before.
Chen Xia just called someone a "rich dog" and the next moment he was called a "rich dog" by someone else. This is really retribution.
Kang Chengde laughed out loud. After he retired, he ran to Yuezhou, a small place, to be a vice president. Many people didn’t understand why. Wasn’t this devaluing himself?
No matter what, you are the director of the No. 1 Hospital in China, a dignified bureau-level cadre. How could you go to Yuezhou to be a slave?
There were all kinds of comments, most of which were sarcastic, showing the arrogance of the people in the capital to the fullest.
Doesn’t Kang Chengde feel aggrieved?
Money was a very important factor in his decision to work at Four Seasons Hospital, but there was another factor: Four Seasons Hospital was not an ordinary regional hospital, but a large international hospital.
How many visiting groups from top hospitals around the world has Kang Chengde received recently? They include those from America, Europe, and Japan.
They also took the initiative to propose pairing up with Four Seasons Hospital and becoming strategic partners. This treatment is what domestic hospitals dream of.
Others are only good at home, but Four Seasons Hospital is good at international level. Can the level be the same?
Now seeing his old friends and subordinates drooling, Kang Chengde felt so happy.
"Haha, I've already put aside all my commitments today and am here to entertain you old friends. If you have any questions or want to know anything, feel free to look for the answers at Four Seasons Hospital. I'll definitely give you the green light."
Qi Minghang pushed his glasses and asked impatiently:
"Old Kang, I won't hide it from you. We came here this time to inspect the antibacterial drugs in your hospital. You can't hide anything. If you have any good medicine, you have to bring it out for us to see."
Fang Jifei, the new president of Union Hospital, also quickly agreed: "Yes, President Kang, you are my old leader. If there is any benefit, you should think about our Union Hospital."
When Kang Chengde heard this, he felt a little embarrassed, because the antibiotics used in Four Seasons Hospital were all unique in the world.
As a clinical doctor, he certainly understands the importance and uniqueness of these medicines. They are the "foundation" or "secret book of martial arts" of Four Seasons Hospital.
If these drugs were to be spread out and all hospitals adopted them, wouldn't Four Seasons Hospital's biggest advantage be gone?
Chen Xia has been reluctant to release these antibiotics for so many years, just to have exclusive use of them.
When Qi Minghang saw that Kang Chengde was in trouble, he felt even happier.
I thought to myself that this hospital really did have some unknown secret, or maybe Pumpkin Vine must have invented a better antibiotic for use only in Four Seasons Hospital.
If we can get these "miracle drugs", not only can we use them in our own hospitals, but we can also imitate the drugs and have domestic pharmaceutical companies produce them.
In this way, domestic patients can use the best and most advanced drugs, and domestic pharmaceutical companies can also take the opportunity to make a fortune, and maybe even export them to earn foreign exchange.
As for whether it would harm the interests of Pumpkin Vine Pharmaceutical Company or Four Seasons Hospital, he didn't care.
Before he left the capital, he had a long secret conversation with Li Xiang.
Who is Li Xiang? He was once Liu Minghang's student, is now the owner of the Mingzhong Biopharmaceutical Factory in Peking, and is also the behind-the-scenes sponsor of this medical delegation.
Oh, he has another identity, the older brother of Li Jun, the former director of Yuezhou Hospital...
