Chapter 1918 [1918] More and More Important
It shows that the condition of other parts of the patient is not serious, which is really a very good result.
Geng Yongzhe's hand was about to touch his relieved heart, and he nodded: "Thank you, Brother Cao."
"You're welcome. This is our job. If you have any questions, you can ask Dr. Chang now. He should be the chief surgeon then."
As for the department of orthopedics, none of the students in their class have been assigned to the department of orthopedics for the time being. The main reason is that orthopedics is a special specialty. The non-medical education department designates the department that medical students must study in the internship stage, but it is also a major business. Therefore, medical schools sometimes set up orthopedics classes for this orthopedics department to train subsequent students.
For example, the National Association has undergraduates, postgraduates and doctoral students majoring in orthopedics, but they have nothing to do with their eighth-year class. Orthopedics has never trained specialist students in their eighth-year classes. It is very rare for the seniors in the eighth grade to finally go to the orthopedics department. The reason is that orthopedics actually has high technical requirements for doctors.
The top student in the eighth-year class, the one with the best academic performance likes to go to neurosurgery and cardiothoracic surgery, two well-known surgical specialties, followed by hepatobiliary surgery, who makes Guoxie hepatobiliary surgery No. 1 in the country. If those with mediocre academic performance want to go to the orthopedics department, it is the turn of the orthopedics department to be picky about medical students.
The Department of Orthopedics of the National Association of China now mainly absorbs students not only graduate students and doctoral students recruited by its own medical school and then trained locally, but more importantly, it directly absorbs students trained by other medical schools. For example, Beidu. Orthopedic students in Beidu are very famous.
For example, when Dean Wu hired Fu Xinheng back then, he hired Chang Jiawei together, precisely because the spine surgery department of the National Association of China was very weak and needed talents from Beijing to supplement it. Spine surgery will become more and more important in the domestic medical business in the future. One is because people become rich and start to pay attention to their appearance. This appearance not only refers to facial features, but also body shape. The spine is the pillar of the human body, and it is impossible to say that it is not important. Second, it is also because the people are getting richer. In terms of cancer treatment, it is not limited to the excision of the primary lesion, but any secondary lesion surgery that can prolong the survival period will be tried.
The spine is a common site of recurrence for many cancers. If the bone metastases in the spine can be perfectly resected at an early stage and the spine function is reconstructed, the patient's survival time can be greatly prolonged and the quality of the survival period will be directly improved.
The most painful thing for many patients with bone metastases is not that the death period of cancer metastasis is approaching, but that the person is directly incontinent and paralyzed, making the patient's life difficult in the final stage of life is tantamount to death.
The purpose of medicine is not only to prolong the survival time of patients, but also to improve the sense of well-being of patients before death.
In the orthopedic department of the National Association of China, more than half of the cancer patients live there, with primary cancer and recurrence and metastasis, each accounting for half of the proportion. This business is booming. I heard that Dean Wu wants to recruit orthopedic students from Beidu again.
When digging people, you can't dig casually. If you want to dig, you must aim at the seedlings. Who will help Dean Wu be the hunter's eyes.
Xie Wanying recalled that during this time, she could see Senior Chang going to Beidu three times, and it seemed unreasonable to say that it was only for academic exchanges. She had never heard of any large-scale academic exchange meetings held in Beidu recently.
Senior Chang may be helping Dean Wu as a spy, because after the new year is the time when major hospitals start poaching outstanding medical students in advance.
