Chapter 643: Clinical medicine? No, it’s clinical medicine(2/2)
After a while, Director Cao put on surgical clothes, a headgear and a mask, and walked in with his head held high.
He was just over 1.8 meters tall, with bulging arm muscles and a body as majestic as a bear. He sat down in front of the console and instantly blocked the entire screen.
Fortunately, there was another big screen in the operating room, and everyone roared and gathered around it.
The operation began.
Director Cao first turned on the navigation system on the robotic arm, took an image of the patient's pelvis, and uploaded it to the robot's imaging system.
After some precise processing, the three-dimensional image of the fracture was intuitively presented to him.
Director Cao quickly analyzed and planned the surgery based on the 3D images in real time. Based on his rich experience, he soon determined the best nail placement channel in the system.
After the surgical plan is planned, the robot's robotic arm moves again.
According to the planned route, the machine first accurately positioned and made three incisions of only 1 cm in the patient's abdomen.
Then, the configured screws are accurately driven into the narrow pubic bone and sacrum one by one.
The screw placement process was very short, taking less than 5 minutes to install three screws.
During the operation, the patient's bleeding volume was very small, only a few ml, less than the size of a bottle cap.
Before the end of the operation, the robotic arm scanned the patient's abdomen again to confirm the position of the screws.
After realizing that it was exactly the same, he slowly retracted.
Director Cao's forehead was beaded with sweat, and he exhaled slowly.
In ten minutes, he completed three minimally invasive incisions and successfully placed the nails.
Together with the post-operative scan confirmation and fully automatic wound suturing, it only took less than 15 minutes.
The whole process is as easy as eating and drinking.
What consumes the most time and energy is the preoperative surgical planning.
Just based on the operation time and the amount of surgical blood loss, the surgical robot instantly beats traditional surgery.
It would be unimaginable to replace it with the traditional open surgery.
You must know that the anatomy of the pelvis is very complex. Once a serious fracture occurs, a long incision is often required to expose the broken end of the fracture.
Traditional surgery involves a lot of bleeding and trauma, and relies heavily on the doctor's experience. If it is not handled properly, disastrous consequences will occur.
Switching to a surgical robot to assist in surgery not only allows minimally invasive surgery, but also reduces bleeding, infection and complications, and patients can return to normal life faster.
The most important thing is that such a simple operation can completely lower the threshold for major orthopedic surgery.
As long as an experienced doctor plans a good surgical route, an ordinary attending doctor can independently complete such a difficult orthopedic surgery.
"It's time for those bastards to understand the true meaning of clinical medicine and experience what clinical medicine is."
Thinking of this, the corners of Director Cao's mouth curled up slightly, and he had already thought of the eighteen training postures for Xiao Su and other attending doctors in his mind.
At this moment, a burst of thunderous applause came from not far behind.
It was also accompanied by bursts of exclamations and cheers.
"Well done!"
"Lao Cao does have a few brushes, and he can complete such a difficult operation so well."
"It takes 45 minutes to complete a major operation, which is amazing."
“Orthopedic surgery can now be minimally invasive, awesome!”
"According to the previous method, a 10-centimeter long incision had to be left in the patient's abdomen before the nail could be inserted. Now it only takes 1 centimeter."
"It has accurate positioning, less bleeding, less trauma, and good prognosis. It is indeed worthy of promotion."
"Be good to patients and be good to doctors. It's really good to you, me, and everyone."
"I looked at the operation manual and found that this robot can not only perform pelvic fracture surgery, but also perform trauma surgery on full-segment spine and limb fractures. It can be said to be a decathlon."
"The robotic arm is really stable. It is said that the accuracy can reach the sub-millimeter level. I saw it today. There is no difference at all when driving a nail."
“The most awesome thing is the main control computer system, which is just like the brain of a robot. It can not only help doctors make suggestions, but also track the patient’s movement during surgery, control the robotic arm to make automatic position compensation, and ensure that the surgical path is consistent with the planned path.
.”
"Yes, it is very sensitive. I noticed that when the head end of the robotic arm leaves the surgical field of view, the system will also give feedback."
"The robot also has fluoroscopy eyes. The scanning system is really easy to use. It can not only see through the depths of the muscles and bones, but also monitor every surgical link in real time."
"Three major problems in orthopedic surgery have been solved in one fell swoop: poor vision, difficulty in precision, and instability. We can no longer laugh at the orthopedic surgeons who perform surgeries so crudely that they are so rough."
"That's right, now that there are surgical robots, everyone is on the same starting line. I'm afraid it will be difficult to establish a chain of contempt for surgery."
"Such a good surgical robot must be very expensive."
"No matter how expensive it is, can it be as expensive as Leonardo da Vinci?"
"In terms of price, you have to have confidence in domestically produced equipment."
"No matter how high-end or expensive the equipment is, as long as it is made locally, it will be sold at a cabbage price."
"I heard that nuclear magnetic resonance equipment is also made in China, and the price is only one-tenth of the imported product. You can take home one of the 30 million MRI equipment for less than 3 million. You say it's awesome or not."
"It is estimated that in two years' time, domestically produced MRIs will be everywhere, and MRIs can be done for only a hundred yuan."
"So, I would say that Sanqing's surgical robot is similar. In two years, everyone in any department will be able to use it."
"I never thought in my life that a surgical robot could be used to cut the appendix. The incision is automatically sutured by the robot. The most hurtful thing is that the suture is better than mine."
A male general surgeon suddenly sighed, his tone as resentful as a middle-aged woman who had been a widow for twenty years.
"Brother, I'm afraid you're not good at your basic skills. You need to practice more."
"No chance. The director said that my stitches were too bad and were as crooked as a centipede's legs. He will lose all his face for the rest of his life. I am strictly prohibited from suturing patients anymore and will let robots do all the work."
The male general surgeon added, the sadness almost overflowing from his face.
"Hahaha~ No, I can't hold it in anymore. Let me have a good laugh."
