The direction of the internal carotid artery has been roughly described in Dr. Hu's previous case. It originates from the common carotid artery and branches into the important ophthalmic artery. It can be imagined that its anatomical location on the body surface is partially in the ear.
The doctors at the scene only needed to think about the knowledge in the anatomy textbooks to clearly understand that the danger Xie said was not nonsense, and her speculation was in line with medical theory. Her speculation might be almost 100% accurate. Her colleagues at the scene who knew her ability all nodded in their hearts and said: This situation is really bad.
This piece of glass is like a sharp poisonous needle in a martial arts novel. The most obvious damage is physical damage. If the fragment is contaminated with other substances, it may cause chemical damage.
If it is not removed in time, it will fall into the human body and cause infection. As Xie pointed out, the knife-like foreign body is located near the aorta, which is the most urgent situation faced by patients and doctors.
You can probably imagine a small knife cutting into the aorta in your head.
The doctor told the firefighters about the risks of these patients in such simple and popular words.
The firefighters gasped and gasped, and when their minds were filled with the scene of blood gushing out of the brain arteries, they all turned pale and sweated profusely, making them want to vomit.
"What to do, doctor?"
"Are we going to perform surgery on the spot to remove the fragments now?"
...
...
Many people consulted medical staff and begged them to save people quickly.
How to save it? When a foreign body is inside the human body, the most straightforward solution that an outsider can think of is to pull it out.
Is it okay to pull it out by force? Considering Wu Lixuan's case, it is never recommended by doctors.
When removing foreign objects, the human body must be opened and removed slowly to avoid damaging important tissues such as nerves and blood vessels inside, so as to avoid causing greater harm that endangers life or causes irreparable sequelae.
Emergency surgery is needed.
We have talked about many cases of emergency surgeries being performed in non-hospital operating rooms before, such as emergency cranial surgeries that were performed before the hospital. However, this surgery cannot be performed nowadays.
Whether or not pre-hospital emergency surgery can be performed depends on the situation. Simply put, it depends on whether the conditions allow it. Some equipment is only available in the hospital operating room, and it cannot be performed outside without this equipment. The brain surgery performed in the hospital mentioned before is simply to drill a hole and put a drainage tube, and a surgical microscope is not used.
At present, the wounded man needs to have his skull opened to search for foreign bodies in the brain tissue, which requires the assistance of a surgical microscope. No doctor's eyesight can reach the level of a microscope to replace a surgical microscope.
Everyone has high hopes for Xie, can't her eyesight replace the surgical microscope? She can guess the location of the injured person's internal carotid artery, as if she can completely control her hands with her brain, so why can't she replace the surgical microscope to operate the knife?
If you ask Xie, she would say don’t create any misunderstanding.
When she performed surgeries with her eyes closed, she actually opened her eyes from time to time to scan and remember the location of the nerves and blood vessels in the surgical field before proceeding. If her brain had not collected enough information, she would not dare to move her hand holding the scalpel.
In this case, the internal carotid artery is a large artery, and there is a vast amount of research data and summaries for reference on its direction and location. These allow her to observe the body surface mapping based on the valuable data provided by predecessors, and then make a relatively accurate inference diagnosis.
