"Director Zhang, you said that not only will the patient's fever subside, but he'll also regain consciousness quickly?"
Xiang Xingye was puzzled. "I can understand why the patient's fever subsided, but how could he regain consciousness so quickly?"
Liu Kexiang smiled and replied, "Xiao Xiang is the new chief resident of our department. He's a very studious young man. Old Zhang, why don't you tell him about it?"
"I see. Xiao Xiang is asking this for you, Old Liu, right?"
Zhang Haihua smiled and said, "In that case, Yun Heng, tell Director Liu about this."
“Oh my god…”
Liu Kexiang glanced at Zhang Haihua unhappily and said, "It's enough for you to know it, why do you have to say it out loud?"
As the director of the department of Tanghua Hospital, don’t I have any dignity?
The two most difficult aspects of this patient's condition are high fever and coma.
In the past few days, the emergency department has been treating the patient's two conditions, performing craniotomy and decompression, and using a lot of nerve-nourishing drugs and treatment plans with the effect of opening the orifices and refreshing the mind, but the patient's condition has not improved at all.
Two such difficult problems were solved by Yun Heng and his group of students in the teaching class. Liu Kexiang still had a lot of doubts in his mind.
Liu Kexiang is a doctor, not a patient's family member. For the patient's family members, as long as the patient gets better, they don't really care about the reason. But as the director of the emergency department, Liu Kexiang still wants to find out the reason.
Everyone was amused by the expressions of Zhang Haihua and Liu Kexiang.
Normally in the hospital, Ye Yingyun and others rarely joke with their department heads. Now, at Tang Hua's side, since they are not from their own department and because of Yun Heng, Zhang Haihua and Liu Kexiang also seem to be more easy-going. This makes Ye Yingyun and others feel that Liu Kexiang and Zhang Haihua seem to be easy to get along with.
Yun Heng thought for a moment and said, "From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, the Yangming meridian is rich in Qi and blood. Excessive Yangming heat often disturbs the mind, causing irritability at the mildest and coma and delirium at the worst. However, once the evil heat is dissipated, the mind will be free of disturbances and will naturally return to normal."
After a moment's thought, Yun Heng continued, "The patient is in a coma and has a high fever after a cerebral hemorrhage. From a modern medical perspective, this is likely due to damage to the nervous system, which has suppressed gastrointestinal function and altered the intestinal microenvironment, causing intestinal bacteria to become displaced. These bacteria release toxins into the bloodstream, stimulating the vascular endothelium to release more inflammatory factors. These bacterial toxins and inflammatory factors can then cross the blood-brain barrier and cause further damage to the brain."
“Isn’t this just inflammatory response syndrome?”
Xiang Xingye was surprised and said, "Oh my god, Doctor Yun, you are amazing. You have explained the treatment ideas of Traditional Chinese Medicine using modern medical terms."
"I majored in integrated Chinese and Western medicine at the Provincial University of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
Yun Heng smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine each have their own strengths. Because Traditional Chinese Medicine started earlier, some of its theoretical explanations are actually a bit crude. Such crude explanations are often difficult to convince the public, and are also difficult for some Western doctors to accept. Speaking of the facts, some discoveries and understandings in modern medicine actually provide some evidence for some theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine to a certain extent."
Zhang Haihua nodded, agreeing with Yun Heng's statement. "Junior Brother, I'm really surprised that you have such an understanding. Although we are doctors of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we shouldn't look at modern medicine with hostility or aversion. Instead, we should view it with a positive attitude."
"Although the theories and infrastructure of traditional Chinese medicine are different from those of modern medicine, both aim to cure diseases and save lives. In some ways, they actually have the same goal, so there are areas where we can learn from each other."
"Junior Brother?"
Wang Jibo and Yue Shaojiang were both quite surprised by the way Zhang Haihua addressed Yun Heng.
For so many days, Lin Yonggang, Ye Yingyun and others have already known that Yun Heng is Qu Tongwen's student, and even Liu Kexiang knows it too. However, Wang Jiebo and Yue Shaojiang, because they are not sociable, have never known this situation.
Just now, Zhang Haihua suddenly said "junior brother", which made Wang Jiebo and Yue Shaojiang stunned.
Zhang Haihua is Qu Tongwen's student, and Zhang Haihua calls Yun Heng "Junior Brother"?
It turns out that Yun Heng is Qu Tongwen’s student?
"Damn it!"
Wang Jibo couldn't help but curse in his heart.
I guess he and Yue Shaojiang were the last to find out, right?
If he had known that Yun Heng was Qu Tongwen's student, he would have gone over to him even if it meant offending Yue Shaojiang.
"I agree with Lao Zhang's idea that different paths lead to the same destination."
Liu Kexiang smiled and said, "As far as modern medicine is concerned, its understanding of many things is still very superficial. Although Traditional Chinese Medicine has developed for many years, it is still limited by the times and has a lot of room for improvement in some aspects. The reason why the two appear different now is that they have chosen different directions. There is still a large blank area in between. If the two continue to develop and progress, and overcome the gap in between, they may really be able to merge into one."
"Director Zhang, you are absolutely right."
Yun Heng himself agrees with Liu Kexiang's statement.
Whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, they are both for curing diseases and saving lives. To be frank, they are actually in the same field.
Whether starting from traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, the purpose of both is to understand all symptoms and cure all diseases. The reason why the two are different is because of the different starting points.
With the development of medicine, Western medicine may reach the same level as traditional Chinese medicine in the future, and traditional Chinese medicine may also understand this level of Western medicine. By that time, there will be no need to distinguish between the two.
As Liu Kexiang said, modern medicine still knows very little, and Chinese medicine is actually similar. They just have their own strengths, but the purpose is the same, and they reach the same destination through different paths.
"That makes sense, bullshit. Old Liu is just loving the whole house and the whole family."
Zhang Haihua said with a smile: "Junior brother, you don't know that Lao Liu has never said such a thing before."
"Old Zhang, you are right."
Liu Kexiang smiled and said, "I just love the house and the dog."
As he spoke, Liu Kexiang glanced at Yun Heng.
Liu Kexiang had met powerful traditional Chinese medicine practitioners before. Ji Fengwen was much stronger than Yun Heng, and Zhang Haihua was also much better than Yun Heng. But whether it was Zhang Haihua or Ji Fengwen, they were either of higher status than him or of similar status, so he could not afford to consider them.
It was Yun Heng, who was young and attracted Liu Kexiang. Liu Kexiang was also willing to learn more about Chinese medicine, and he would always agree with Yun Heng when he talked about Chinese medicine in front of her.
Zhang Haihua and Liu Kexiang sang in unison, naturally performing in front of Yun Heng.
However, the performance of the two was like playing the lute to a cow, and Yun Heng seemed to not understand anything at all.
