Chapter 1278: Cesarean Section
Even though he was well prepared, when the time came, Minister Han still hesitated. It was a laparotomy to get a baby, and the baby was his daughter.
Minister Li sat aside and did not disturb him. He could not persuade him in such matters, as he was still alive or dead. All he could do was to say, "Doctor Zhou, if you need anything, please tell me. I will have my servants go and get it immediately."
Manbao nodded to him, still looking at Minister Han.
Minister Han was silent for a long time, but finally nodded and said, "Thank you, Doctor Zhou."
Manbao stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first and come back to your house early tomorrow morning."
Han Shangshu was startled and asked quickly, "Isn't Doctor Zhou staying at home?"
Man Bao said: "The patient also needs to rest. Let her sleep after taking the medicine. Remember not to let her eat. She can drink some water. As long as she is not stimulated again, she will be fine."
Minister Han then looked at Doctor Tan and Doctor Liu.
The two imperial doctors looked at the sky outside and nodded, saying, "Then we will both stay at your house tonight."
Minister Li quickly said, "The guest rooms have been prepared for the two imperial physicians."
The two ministers looked at Manbao, then at Bai Shan who was waiting on the side, and they also knew that it was not appropriate for Zhou Man to stay here, after all, she was still a little girl.
So Han Shangshu didn't force it anymore and asked, "What do we need to prepare at home?"
Manbao thought for a moment and asked someone to bring him some writing brush and ink. "I'll write down some medicine for you. You'll need it tomorrow. Prepare it first. You'll also need to prepare a well-lit, empty room. You don't need to prepare too many things in it, just a bed or a wooden couch."
Doctors Old Tan and Liu came forward to look at the medicines she had listed. Seeing that she had requested a lot of Atractylodes lancea, they asked, "Do you want to use Atractylodes lancea to fumigate the house?"
Manbao nodded. "The wound on the abdomen might be a bit large. Even though it's winter now, it's better to be safe."
Doctor Tan continued his comment, "The amount of anesthesia is too little. Will it be enough to numb the patient?"
Doctor Liu said, "Young Doctor Zhou is also very skilled in acupuncture and anesthesia. Otherwise, a large dose of medicine would have a serious impact on the child."
Doctor Tan nodded, and when he saw that she had listed some emergency medicines, he felt that there was nothing more to add.
Manbao handed the written list to Minister Han, gave him a few instructions, and then said goodbye and left.
Minister Han quickly sent someone to escort them back.
Sitting in the car, Bai Shan glanced at the guards following behind him from the car window, closed the car window and asked: "Are you sure about tomorrow?"
Manbao said: "I think there is a 90% chance."
After all, she has performed twenty cesarean sections using Han Wu Niangzi as her model, and has also simulated other emergencies during this period. As long as she doesn't encounter any specific emergencies, she is still very confident.
Although he already had experience, Manbao still made good preparations. For example, he told Teacher Mo when he got home at night, and then did nothing but lay down on the bed to rest.
Early the next morning, she took her medicine box and went to Jishidiang first. After Daji sent Bai Shan and the others to the Imperial College, she went to report to the manager Zheng and asked him and Doctor Zheng to deliver a message, and then took Xiaoshao to Li's house.
The medicines that the Li family lacked were finally replenished from Jishidiang.
Their family cleared out a well-lit wing room and, following Manbao's instructions, fumigated the room with Atractylodes lancea. They only placed a wooden couch and some shelves inside.
Not long after, Doctors Liu and Xiao also arrived. They received a message from Manbao that Doctor Zheng brought this morning, so they asked for leave to leave the palace.
Because Manbao had already told them and taught them some things, and also got the Queen's consent, it was not difficult for them to leave the palace.
Mrs. Han Wu was a little nervous. It should be said that everyone was a little nervous, including the two imperial doctors and Manbao, but they did not show it on their faces.
Obviously, they have the professional ethics of doctors. No matter who is panicking, they cannot let others see that they are panicking.
Mrs. Han Wu was so nervous that she even forgot to ask for food. Li Sanlang, who had been crying out for food in her ear since morning, breathed a sigh of relief.
Manbao said they would start at noon, but in fact they had everything ready before noon.
Manbao also took out the blood-drawing device and tested the blood on the fingers of several maids that Han Shangshu had brought. After confirming their blood types with Han Wu Niangzi's, he selected three people who were compatible and instructed, "If the three of you have the same blood types, wait outside until you are called. If necessary, we will give you a blood transfusion."
No one understands what direct input is.
Man Bao said: "It means that there is no need to draw it into a jar, it can be directly injected from one person's body into the patient's body."
The three maids were worried and didn't dare to ask how much blood would be drawn. Manbao had already spoken to comfort them, saying, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it. It won't be a lot of blood drawn from each person."
The three maids breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that she had even considered this and was fully prepared, Minister Han felt relieved.
He did not go to court or the government office today, but came here to guard.
There were quite a few people coming to the yard to watch the fun. Several men and women from the Li family came over quietly, but under the gaze of Minister Li, they did not dare to disturb the two imperial doctors and Zhou Man. They just stood aside and watched honestly.
The female relatives surrounded Han Wu Niangzi, and no matter whether their feelings were sincere or not, they just kept saying words of comfort as if they were free.
Mrs. Han Wu was already nervous, and this made her even more nervous. She felt a dull pain in her stomach.
When Mrs. Han saw this, she immediately changed the subject and sent the man aside in a few seconds.
Manbao arranged everything. Doctor Tan was in charge of the blood. Manbao and Doctor Liu went forward to feel Han Wu Niangzi's pulse. After nodding, they said, "It's OK, Wu Niangzi, do you want to go change your clothes?
Mrs. Han Wu hesitated for a moment and then nodded. When she came out of the room, Manbao let her into the delivery room.
Two huge screens were erected in the delivery room. The wooden couch was placed inside the screens, and a table and two chairs were placed outside. Doctor Tan and Doctor Liu sat there waiting.
Minister Han did not come in, but Li Sanlang was standing outside with him. Madam Han changed into clean clothes and went behind the screen.
The prepared medicine was brought up, Han Wu Niang drank it, and Man Bao began to use acupuncture.
After more than a quarter of an hour, when he was sure that she was asleep, Manbao tied a string to Han Wu Niang's hand and pulled her out to Doctor Tan and Doctor Liu.
Manbao had only heard of the technique of diagnosing the pulse by hanging a thread, but he had never seen it himself, let alone knew how to do it. However, before coming here, Doctor Tan told him that he could do it.
After the three of them confirmed that the patient was truly asleep, Manbao looked at Dr. Liu and Dr. Xiao, nodded slightly, and said, "Let's begin."
The surgical instruments had already been sterilized. Man Bao washed his hands and shook them. After the water on his hands dried naturally, he took out the scalpel, felt around her belly, and then calmed down. He found the right spot and gently cut...
Blood flowed out, and Madam Han covered her mouth with her hand to prevent herself from screaming. She stared with wide eyes as Zhou Man cut open her sister's belly, then cut open another layer of something, then stopped and looked at something...
Doctors Liu and Xiao were also a little nervous. They used gauze to wipe away the flowing blood to prevent it from blocking Doctor Zhou's sight.
After two cuts, they were stunned. They saw a big round lump, vaguely in the shape of a child...
Their eyes widened, and then they saw Manbao gently cut open a layer of something with a knife, and they vaguely saw the child's feet.
The two of them opened their eyes even wider.
