Beijing First People's Hospital.
Traditional Chinese Medicine Inpatient Department.
Su Zhengnan and his fifth senior brother Li Huai'an were busy all morning, and only after they had examined all thirteen patients did they finish their busy morning.
After a detailed diagnosis and careful study of the symptoms and medical history of these thirteen patients, Su Zhengnan discovered that the illnesses of nine of them were closely related to Sha syndrome!
As for the remaining four patients, their conditions were all different.
However, Su Zhengnan still examined the four patients as usual. Fortunately, their problems were not too serious, and they would be fine after acupuncture and taking Chinese medicine for a period of time.
..............
noon.
After lunch.
Su Zhengnan sat down with his fifth senior brother Li Huai'an and several attending physicians from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and they discussed the topic of 'sha syndrome'.
Of course, this research project was mainly led by Su Zhengnan, and the other TCM doctors were just participating.
From diagnosis to treatment of Sha syndrome, there are currently only nine patient cases.
However, this was sufficient for the initial establishment of the "Sha syndrome" research topic.
After explaining the diagnostic and treatment criteria for Sha syndrome to them, Su Zhengnan smiled and said:
"That's all I'll say for now regarding the diagnosis and treatment of Sha syndrome. I don't know how much of it you all understood?"
"If there is anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask, and I can explain it again."
"Well....."
Li Huai'an, still dazed, glanced at the attending physicians present and said:
“Junior brother, I understand most of what you said. I think this 'sha syndrome' you mentioned can definitely be studied as a separate discipline. Let's find more clinical patients to collect data later!”
"Then I'll have to trouble you all with this matter, senior brother. Winter break is about to start, and I'll have time then. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me anytime."
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded slightly to everyone present.
Seeing this, the other attending physicians from the Traditional Chinese Medicine department all smiled and responded:
"Hehe, Dr. Su, you're too kind!"
"Yes, yes, Dr. Su, you don't need to be so polite with us. Since Director Li approved this project, our department will naturally give it our full support."
"You are Director Li's junior, so you are also our junior. We will definitely give our full support to this project."
"That's right, that's right. Besides, if this project succeeds, it will be a good thing for our department!"
“We are also doctors of traditional Chinese medicine. Although we don’t know much about this 'sha' syndrome, we can understand it after listening to what you’ve said, Dr. Su.”
"Moreover, there are so many medical records here, I think this research topic should be fine."
Clearly, Li Huai'an has served as the director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine for so many years, and he enjoys a high level of prestige here.
Therefore, as long as it's a research topic he approves, the entire department will generally not object.
Moreover, people have become more familiar with Su Zhengnan during this time, and they all know that he is Director Li's junior brother and also Elder Gu's last disciple.
Therefore, they naturally did not object to the topic of "sha syndrome" brought by Su Zhengnan.
Everyone knows that if this project can be completed...
Both they and the entire department can benefit from this, so who would object to it?
Seeing that everyone supports the "sha syndrome" research project I want to undertake.
Su Zhengnan said with a smile, "Then I would like to thank you all. If this project can be perfected, I believe it will be a great honor for the entire field of traditional Chinese medicine."
"I'm not very good at saying nice things. Next, I'll be collecting all sorts of clinical data related to sha (a type of skin ailment). I'll have to trouble you all for that."
As he spoke, Su Zhengnan bowed slightly to the attending physicians of traditional Chinese medicine present to express his gratitude.
If this project could actually be completed...
The benefits are undoubtedly enormous.
This is one of the reasons why he chose to collaborate with his fifth senior brother's Traditional Chinese Medicine department instead of seeking collaboration with other hospitals.
It was a little after four in the afternoon!
The discussion about "sha syndrome" has finally come to an end.
As the meeting concluded, Su Zhengnan's reputation in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at the First People's Hospital grew.
Everyone in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at the First People's Hospital knew that Su Zhengnan was conducting research with their department director, who was also Director Li's junior colleague, and whose background and status were in no way inferior to their director's.
After all, he is Master Gu's apprentice; how could his background be weak?
At least in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, it is definitely superior to all of them.
After the discussion.
Li Huai'an led Su Zhengnan back to his office and said with a smile, "I knew you were hiding your talents from me, junior brother. Look how well you spoke just now! Even I felt enlightened after listening to you. It seems your medical skills are about to surpass your teacher's!"
Li Huai'an was generous with his praise for his junior brother, especially regarding the treatment of sha (a type of skin ailment).
Li Huai'an felt that his junior brother's knowledge in this area had surpassed that of their teacher.
"Senior brother, you flatter me. I just happen to have some knowledge of sha syndrome."
Su Zhengnan smiled modestly and said, "Actually, I should thank you for your support, senior brother. Otherwise, this research project would not have been able to proceed smoothly."
"Alright, junior brother, stop being modest."
Li Huai'an waved his hand and said, "By the way, speaking of this topic of sha syndrome, I have an idea. Perhaps we can invite TCM experts from other hospitals to join us and expand the scope of our research. What do you think?"
Su Zhengnan's eyes lit up, and after a moment of contemplation, he said:
"Your idea is good, but it would be best to find a trustworthy hospital to join us. Otherwise, I would prefer that we do this research ourselves."
Afraid of others stealing the credit!
This kind of thing happens in every industry, so we should be careful.
Li Huai'an couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "Don't worry, since you've agreed, I'll definitely find a trustworthy hospital to cooperate with. I'm not stupid."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhengnan nodded and said, "Alright, you can decide this, Senior Brother."
"Okay, I'll make the contact."
A faint smile appeared on Li Huai'an's face. He glanced at the time and said, "Let's go eat first. It's getting late. We can talk about other things after we eat."
"Okay!"
Su Zhengnan nodded and followed Li Huai'an toward the hospital cafeteria.
It looks like he'll have to stay here and work the night shift with his senior colleague tonight.
Because those patients with sha symptoms had all taken medicine.
Su Zhengnan and the others can find out about the changes in their condition after taking the medication as soon as possible here, and they can also have a follow-up examination tomorrow before heading to work at the Beijing Film Academy.
As for the matter of collaborating with the TCM departments of other hospitals.
Su Zhengnan trusted that his senior brother could handle everything, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.
After all, Li Huai'an wasn't just a nobody in the Beijing traditional Chinese medicine circle.
Even if we don't involve the teacher.
He can still find suitable hospitals to cooperate with, without worrying about others taking credit for his work later.
