Chapter 2570 Blood Drawing (New Year's Day Update)
Manbao entered the room and found it very quiet. Xiao Yuan was leading people to feed medicine to people, but the medicine was difficult to feed in, so they used reeds to feed the medicine.
Seeing Zhou Man, Xiao Yuanzheng turned aside to let her see the patient and explained the patient's condition in detail. "He was hit on the head with a stick. See the concave part on the side? The skull is fractured and concave, and there's bleeding inside."
Manbao walked forward and stared at it, and waited until they finished feeding the medicine before carefully reaching out to touch it. Doctor Xiao carefully walked forward and held her head.
The two of them slowly moved his head so she could get a closer look. "The wound has been treated. There's only slight bleeding from the external wound, but you can't see it from inside. But I pressed lightly, and judging by the color of the flesh, he's bleeding inside his brain as well. What they just gave him was hemostatic medicine."
Xiao Yuanzheng paused and said, "This is already the second bowl."
Manbao asked, "Didn't he wake up?"
"He woke up for a while, but his eyes were dull and he passed out again after a while. We called him many times, but he would not wake up."
That's why he asked someone to tell the emperor that something bad was going to happen.
The thing that people with brain injuries fear most is drowsiness and unconsciousness.
Manbao frowned. Teacher Mo had said that patients with craniocerebral injury and bleeding should be most wary of brain hernia. She felt his pulse and it looked very bad.
Xiao Yuanzheng's two hands were still holding his head. Manbao glanced at the pillow and said, "Put it higher."
Doctor Liu at the side immediately asked someone to bring another soft pillow.
Xiao Yuanzheng slowly lowered his head, revealing the injured side of his head, and asked her, "Can you bleed him?"
Manbao had never done anything manual, not even on an anthropomorphic model. She had performed a craniotomy before, but it was obvious that a craniotomy could not be performed here.
She didn't know whether he would die if she didn't perform a craniotomy, but she knew that in the current environment, if she performed a craniotomy, he would definitely die.
"Bleeding with a needle?"
"This is the only solution now," Xiao Yuanzheng said, "The needle you use for blood transfusions might be useful to drain the blood clots in the brain."
Manbao asked, "How sure are you?"
"Less than 20%," he said. "Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate."
The main reason is that we can't see inside the brain, so no one knows where the bleeding point is, and the needle may hit somewhere else.
The human brain is very peculiar. Once it is damaged, no one knows what the consequences will be. Even Dean Xiao has never dealt with such a patient and can only make a decision based on his years of experience.
But this matter cannot be made public, otherwise it will not only cause panic in the Imperial Medical Service, but also give outsiders an excuse to attack the Imperial Medical Service.
But Manbao and Doctor Liu, who were equally skilled in medicine, understood the meaning of these words.
The two looked at each other, thought for a moment, and since there was no better way, they nodded.
Manbao added: "Send someone to get some ice and give him a cold compress."
Xiao Yuanzheng, "Cold compress? Yes, it can slow down the bleeding."
Manbao wants to lower brain pressure.
The imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau ran back and got the blood transfusion device. When the emperor saw it, he thought it was a blood transfusion, so he looked at the Prince of Hejian. The Prince of Hejian understood and immediately rolled up his sleeves to indicate that he wanted to draw his blood. He was willing to donate blood to Zheng Erlang.
The people in the room ignored him. Manbao rolled up his sleeves, took the needle and sat on a high chair, "I'll do it."
Dean Xiao and Doctor Liu stood by to help.
Manbao paid Keke a lot of points in one breath. The head in front of her slowly became three-dimensional. Manbao blinked and subconsciously scanned the head that Keke had just scanned in her mind. She compared it and slowly found a position. She said to Keke, "Scan it again."
Keke was very happy. He deducted points while scanning. The real-time scene appeared, and even Manbao's hand was scanned in.
Manbao compared the two and gently moved down a little bit, "Sweep again."
Keke cooperated well and another point was deducted. At the same time, another image appeared in Manbao's mind.
Normally, she could just scan a picture and then compare it slowly, but now she obviously doesn't have that time.
She adjusted her position slightly, then said to Koko, "Scan a 16x image. It should be more detailed, right?"
"Yes, even the points are high."
Manbao was very proud, "Am I the one who is short of points now?"
Koko deducted the money without hesitation.
A clearer scan image appeared in Manbao's brain, even the location where bleeding was happening in the brain was clearly shown.
Manbao looked at the position, confirmed that he had found the most suitable position, and then gently inserted it.
She didn't dare to pierce it too deep, so she estimated it a little bit, and then asked Keke to scan it again. She would decide whether to pierce it deeper based on the scanned image...
Dean Xiao and Imperial Physician Liu watched as she kept moving a needle, each move being very small, circling around the same spot, not inserting the needle for a long time...
Xiao Yuanzheng thought she was afraid and was about to take over from her, but she plunged in.
Xiao Yuanzheng: ...
He paused, waiting for her to calm down before asking why she chose this place. Then he saw her gently insert the needle a little further. At the same time, red appeared in the transparent goat intestine connected to the tail of the needle. Xiao Yuanzheng was stunned, then picked up the scissors and cut it, leaving only a piece of goat intestine.
A drop of bright red blood fell, and a medical assistant brought up a copper basin to collect the blood.
Xiao Yuanzheng took a look and said, "Add some water and record how many drops of blood have dripped."
The medical assistant agreed, filled the copper basin with water, and squatted aside to count.
Manbao gently pressed the needle and let Koko scan it before he breathed a sigh of relief. The injection did not damage the brain.
With the help of points, Manbao drew blood from three different locations, and through constant comparison, he gained a more intuitive understanding of the damage in his brain.
Man Bao took note and after making sure that no more blood could be drawn out, he took out the needle and said to Xiao Yuanzheng, "I think we should shave his head to reduce the risk of infection from the trauma."
Xiao Yuanzheng was also planning this, but he thought that he should wait until his condition improved before taking action. Otherwise, he was doomed to die, so why bother with his beautiful hair?
So he asked, "Now that the blood has been drawn, how confident are you?"
Manbao now has a good understanding of the situation inside his brain. There is a swelling and two bleeding spots, but the bleeding is not fast now. With the addition of medication and acupuncture treatment...
Manbao weighed the pros and cons and said, "Fifty percent?"
When Xiao Yuanzheng heard this, he immediately said, "Then shave it."
When it comes to shaving hair, the only people who can do it besides the barber are the surgeon.
And who is the most famous surgeon in the Imperial Medical Bureau?
Everyone looked at Zhou Man.
Manbao: ...
There was no other way, she could only take the scissors and cut the man's hair close to the scalp in two clicks, and then carefully shaved his head with the help of Xiao Yuanzheng and Doctor Liu, of course, focusing on shaving the injured area and the edges.
The emperor who was waiting outside first saw someone bringing out a basin of blood. When he heard that it was drawn from Zheng Erlang's brain, the emperor felt a little disappointed.
Then someone brought out a roll of hair. The emperor looked at it, and Gu Zhong stopped the person and asked. He heard that it was Doctor Zhou and his colleagues who shaved the hair to make subsequent treatment more convenient. The emperor's heart revived.
See you tomorrow
