"Doctor Li and Doctor Jin are discussing it. Don't worry, our doctors here will do their best to treat the patients." Xie Wanying said this mainly to Mr. Zhou who was present at the scene.
"Did Dr. Li say that this patient needs surgery?" Dr. Xu asked.
"This patient may not be suitable for bypass surgery. Dr. Xu, you should know this better than us." Xie Wanying said frankly.
She had heard Brother Jin and others discussing the patient's condition in the office before. To be fair, she thought that after being asked by the patient's family, Dr. Xu probably followed the family's lead and tried all kinds of medical treatments in desperation.
Family members can act recklessly, but doctors must never act recklessly at any time.
It is okay to have some distrust in the skills of your peers, but you must make a rational analysis of the patient's condition based on science and actual conditions. You cannot use the assumption that a peer's skills may be unreliable as a starting point to analyze the condition. If the starting point of thinking is wrong, how can you come to a correct conclusion? Xie Wanying knew that the other party's words could affect the decision of the patient's family, and hoped that the other party would remain rational and not biased.
"You——" Doctor Xu was shocked by her words, "What do you mean?"
"Guo Xie may not be as well-known as Guo Zhi in the field of PCI surgery. However, as a cardiovascular doctor, he will definitely give the most reasonable medical advice based on the patient's condition."
"I see. You are a cardiovascular physician from the National Association. You want to speak for your hospital and your department, so you blame me for this? You said that I asked the cardiac surgery department to come when I knew I shouldn't. My move to help the patient has caused you trouble, right?" Doctor Xu became more and more angry as he spoke. "As you said yourself, your hospital's technology is inferior. Am I wrong? Your technology is inferior, but you still have the courage to say that your judgment is wrong about mine?"

Xie Wanying did not follow the other party's words and argue with him. In fact, the other party said that he had never come into contact with the cardiovascular department of the National Association. His understanding of the cardiovascular department of the National Association was hearsay. Without being familiar with the cardiovascular technology of the National Association, he made a completely self-judgment and concluded that all the cardiovascular doctors of the National Association were not good.
As she had guessed, the other party's judgment was irrational. In this case, as a doctor, of course, you should seek truth from facts. No matter how the other party questions our technology, you should only discuss the patient's condition scientifically.
Xie Wanying thought so, remained calm and communicated: "Doctor Xu, let's analyze the specific situation of this patient."
"I know what his situation is."
"You knew during the last surgery that he might have arteriosclerosis obliterans. Now you suggest that his family and friends ask the surgeon to perform a bypass surgery on him. A bypass surgery requires selecting suitable arteries and veins from the patient's own body as bridges. In his case, the vascular materials that doctors can choose are limited, and there is a high possibility of re-stenosis afterwards. He is not in a very serious and urgent situation where a bypass surgery is necessary. You can try PCI first, and then switch to cardiothoracic surgery if it doesn't work. Isn't it a bit reckless to go straight to a bypass surgery without trying anything else?"
Doctor Xu was stuck, knowing that what she said was right. Basically, nowadays, patients are advised to undergo coronary artery bypass grafting only when there is no other choice. If PCI is possible, it should be done first, so that bypass surgery can be used as a backup, so as to avoid the doctor's having to use up all the means in a short period of time.
