The patient burst out laughing when he heard this.
After joking around to cheer the patient up, Cao Yong then examined the 40-something male patient and gave him the necessary instructions: "After you are discharged from the hospital, you must go to the rehabilitation department and continue with rehabilitation training."
"I know, Dr. Cao. It's better not to come to see you again in the future, right?" the patient asked with a smile.
"You need to take your medicine well and monitor your blood pressure at home. Don't let it happen again like this time." Cao Yong was nagging the patient like an old mother.
Who says that surgeons are done with surgery? Patients need to continue to do follow-up work. It's like a nanny taking care of a child.
This patient has almost recovered and can be discharged. The bed needs to be vacated to receive new patients. Huang Zhilei made some notes on a piece of paper and then reminded his subordinates that a discharge record and discharge instructions should be written. During this time, Cao Yong chatted with the patient for a few more words.
Seeing his handsome smiling face, Xie Wanying seemed to understand why he loved to laugh.
Because laughing can bring joy to patients. Unlike patients in other departments, patients in neurosurgery need too much psychological adjustment in the later stage. These patients will have to face a dysfunctional body for the rest of their lives. Therefore, the most patients with depression are in neurosurgery.
After talking to Patient No. 22, Cao Yong led his team to Patients No. 23 and No. 24, who were conscious after the operation but were lying in bed and unable to walk.

On the first day of ward rounds after returning to the department, Cao Yong personally examined the patients to make him feel more at ease.
Physical examination in neurosurgery has its own characteristics. Simply put, the treatment is for the brain, and all functions related to the brain need to be checked. For example, it is necessary to check how the patient speaks, how he eats, whether he has pain in the head and face, whether he can move his limbs and have any feeling, etc. These are popular explanations, but there are actually a lot of professional terms.
There are muscle strength tests to detect limb dysfunction, consciousness scores to check the patient's mental state, memory tests, etc. Smell, vision, hearing, etc. These seem to be matters of the ENT department, but in fact they involve certain neurosurgical diseases and need to be checked.
It is common for hemiplegic patients to stick out their tongue to one side. The swallowing action of the patient is related to whether the patient can eat by himself. If the patient has difficulty swallowing, a gastric tube must be inserted, otherwise the patient may suffocate.
A detailed examination of all aspects is very important, as any negligence may cost the patient his life. Although these patients are inpatients and the comprehensive examinations that should be done have already been done, the ward rounds are equivalent to re-examinations, which are relatively simple, but it is necessary to pay attention to the progression and outcome of the patient's condition.
The senior doctors are responsible for teaching. For example, if they have some free time today, they can ask the medical students to come up and do physical examinations on the patients, ask questions to the medical students, and when the medical students answer the questions, you can discuss with the students below.
Today, Xie Wanying was responsible for carrying the medical records behind her senior brother. When she came out of the ward with her senior brother, she was carrying a total of eleven medical records.
Senior Brother Huang must have wanted to train her. It was true that carrying medical records during ward rounds was a job for medical students. However, medical records were usually carried by several people. Xie Wanying thought that Senior Brother Huang probably went through the same thing back then, and was trained to carry more than a dozen medical records, so he followed suit to train her.
Medical students hold medical records in their hands so that they can easily get them when senior doctors need to check the medical records during rounds. Therefore, Xie Wanying must adjust the order of the medical records before and after the senior doctors check each bed, so that the senior doctors can take the top medical record from her and find the one they want at any time.
