Chapter 1249 Success Rate
Manbao was silent for a moment before saying, "If you calculate it comprehensively, about 30%."
This possibility is very small, but it is better than Doctor Tan directly concluding that it is impossible.
Li Sanlang, standing by, looked haggard. He asked, "If we open the abdomen to retrieve the baby, is it possible to save only you?"
Manbao immediately said, "If the only way to save you is to open your abdomen and take the baby, then I have a 60% to 70% chance of success."
This was a bit beyond everyone's expectations. Han Shangshu asked doubtfully, "Shouldn't the child's survival rate be higher?"
Manbao shook his head. "If you don't want to perform a laparotomy, then it's impossible to save the mother by performing an abortion. But if you are willing to perform a laparotomy and only want to save the mother, then I have a lot of medicine to use. For example, I can prescribe a large dose of Ma Fei San."
Minister Han and Minister Li: ...
The two of them understood immediately.
The two of them hesitated for a moment, and Li Sanlang, who was standing by, immediately said, "Then let's protect the lord. Father-in-law, if the child is gone, then it's gone. We can take a concubine and have the child born, and then we can bring it to Sanniang's knees."
Upon hearing this, Han Shangshu sighed and said, "Alright, let's do this."
Madam Han said, "Madam Zhou, if possible, please try your best to keep the child."
She said, "Wu Niang has suffered a lot for this child. If she knew she couldn't keep the child, I don't know what she would do."
Manbao nodded and said, "I will try my best."
Then we discussed what preparations to make.
Of course, Manbao couldn't do such a big thing as a laparotomy alone. She wanted to ask the imperial doctors for help, but she was not sure whether the Han and Li families would accept the imperial doctors into the delivery room.
The Han and Li families are not so pedantic. Human lives are at stake, so what else can be said or not?
However, Madam Han thought that they didn't think it was a big deal, but Madam Han Wu might not agree, so she asked, "Madam Zhou, aren't you doing it? In that case, why don't you let the maids wait on you while the imperial doctors help outside the door?"
Manbao asked, "How many doctors can your family hire?"
Mrs. Han looked at her father.
Han Shangshu then said, "Besides Doctor Tan, there is also Doctor Liu."
Man Bao nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll see if I can ask the female doctor for help. Then I'll ask Minister Han to invite the two imperial doctors to discuss the matter."
On that day, everyone had to discuss what they were responsible for, and she also wanted to ask the two imperial doctors how they usually treated such illnesses.
If the operation goes well, there will be follow-up treatment, which is also very important.
Then, she had to prepare various things for the operation, and the Li and Han families also had to prepare some medicines...
Manbao's little head started to plan, and then she listed a series of things. For example, she needed an empty room with nothing in it, just a wooden couch for the patient to lie on, and some tables and chairs.
These things can be prepared slowly, including various medicinal herbs, but she decided to go back and discuss it with Teacher Mo later, and then go to Dr. Tao and others to discuss it tomorrow.
She is now full of fighting spirit, but the Han and Li families are not in a good mood because the success rate she gave is too low.
But apart from Zhou Man, they had no other choice, because no one else had even her success rate.
Manbao did not give Han Wuniang any more massages. Since she was going to have an abdominal surgery, there was no need to let her suffer that pain. However, she still asked her to do the corrective movements the next day. She also instructed the midwife and explained some precautions. She only left after making sure they had learned them.
It is always good to exercise more, and this exercise is also good for her body.
It was still Mrs. Han who sent Manbao out. This time, Mrs. Han did not give her any medical fees, and Manbao didn't care.
She was now very familiar with the ways of these wealthy families and knew that they would not treat doctors unfairly in matters of money.
Manbao asked Xiaoshao to take her home directly. She first went to the stable to cultivate her relationship with Chiji and fed it a handful of beans. Then she went back to the house, put down her bookbox, and went to find Mr. Zhuang to attend the class.
Today is the day for her to learn a new lesson.
After she finished learning the new lesson and finishing her homework, she went back to the room to find Teacher Mo.
Teacher Mo had much more time and resources than Manbao. He gave Manbao several prescriptions, all of which were for anesthesia. He said, "These are all from ancient books. I'm also doing experiments here, but I don't have many of the herbs used. Can you find a way to buy them and send them to me so I can see the results of the experiment?"
He said, "Because some medicinal materials have been lost in the long river of history, these medicines have not been recorded in the anthropomorphic model's system, so it cannot give you medication recommendations..."
"But I've never heard of these herbs." Manbao replied to Teacher Mo while looking at the prescriptions in his mailbox, "I've memorized all the names of the herbs, but I've never heard of these."
Teacher Mo didn't expect that they didn't have it either. After a long silence, he asked, "Then give me your anesthetic prescription. I'll find someone to discuss your prescription."
Manbao agreed, thought about it, and then wrote down two prescriptions.
These two prescriptions, one was obtained from Doctor Fan, and is basically the one commonly used in this era, except for the dosage.
Another one was found in a book on the history of the development of traditional Chinese medicine in the encyclopedia. It is said to be the most effective traditional Chinese medicine anesthetic prescription handed down from ancient times and has been verified.
Of course, Mr. Mo also knew this prescription. It was he who recommended the book to Manbao.
He asked, "Do you have all the herbs on this prescription?"
"Both." Manbao had studied it, and although the two medicines had different names, she still found it. She had originally planned to use this anesthetic when she connected Xiang Mingxue's tendons.
Teacher Mo was very satisfied and said, "I'm short of four medicinal herbs that we don't have here. Please find them for me. It's difficult to conduct the experiment at your place, so I'll do it."
Manbao agreed and wrote down the name of the medicine he sent.
Teacher Mo kept sending information to Manbao, the system dinging. He said, "Due to the lack of medicinal materials, the data on the effects of these medicines has not been input into the anthropomorphic model. Therefore, we cannot determine the impact of these medicines on pregnant women and fetuses at the moment. Have you decided to have a cesarean section?"
"The patient's family has agreed."
"Then you have a lot to do." At this moment, Teacher Mo also felt that the main system had too many restrictions, otherwise he would have just given Manbao an anesthetic bracelet, and there would be no need to worry about this now.
Unexpectedly, their biggest obstacle was not during or after the operation, but preoperative anesthesia.
Teacher Mo sighed and continued, "I'm sending you some information on acupuncture anesthesia that I found in an ancient book today. You can take a look. It's not very detailed, but this technique is a non-drug anesthesia method that has been widely used in the 22nd century for drug addiction treatment, cancer pain, rheumatic pain, and even depression."
