Chapter 1377: 【1377】Touching the Teacher
There is postoperative restenosis in bypass surgery, but the interval is longer compared to after PCI, although it varies from person to person and depends on the surgical outcome. Eventually, if a second surgery is not possible, a PCI stenting will still be needed.
Xie Wanying continued what the other person left unsaid: "Even if bypass surgery is ultimately chosen, it's best to first perform an angiography, providing the thoracic surgeon with a solid reference from a good examination result to minimize the operation time as much as possible. The patient is older and has many underlying diseases, making bypass surgery a major battle with high risk. At this stage, the surgery is only an initial treatment. What he needs most is post-operative adjustment, awaiting the emergence of new antiplatelet drugs and new therapies. These are cutting-edge research developments internationally, and Doctor Seo, as an industry insider, should be somewhat informed."
The three male students who followed stood at the door, looking at Student Xie who, as always, was so engrossed in discussing academic issues that she seemed to forget where she was, oblivious to her surroundings. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: the female top student from their class was arguing the hospital doctor almost to silence.
Doctor Seo, on the opposite side, needed to think deeply, and after a long while, he muttered, "As you said, he has a very poor vascular condition and there are risks even with bypass. But the biggest question now is, do you think you can accurately perform a radial artery puncture given such poor vascular conditions?"
"Doctor Seo, you can't assume we can't do it because you heard that our skills seem lacking, nor can you decide that the patient should go for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery just because you believe we can't do it," Xie Wanying honestly pointed out the flaw in his logic.
This remark hit him hard, causing him to be at a loss for words even longer.
Feng Yicong and Pan Shihua exchanged glances: it's exactly as Student Xie said.
Yue Wentong's stern brows furrowed as if he sighed. Student Xie's words were standing up for the teachers of Guoxie, and hearing it, the teachers and senior brothers on-site didn't know how they would feel. Would they possibly think she was being too talkative and reckless?
Someone doggedly never overthinks. As to whether or not she was standing up for Guoxie's teachers, Xie Wanying believed it depended on who was right. If her teacher wasn't right, she wouldn't defend them.
Two senior brothers, Yu Xuexian and Jin Tianyu turned their heads.
As Xie Wanying initially speculated, they originally considered the act of family members handing her the phone as absurd, so they ignored it. Unexpectedly, Doctor Seo engaged in a serious academic debate with her and was about to lose.
It's likely that Doctor Seo, talking on the phone, wouldn't have thought he was speaking with a medical student, otherwise, he wouldn't have wasted words and would have hung up in a hurry. It's more probable that he, like Professor Han and others, mistakenly thought she was Expert Xie.
Thinking of the events in the afternoon and evening, Yu Xuexian adjusted his gold-framed glasses. He was genuinely impressed with Junior Xie Wanying, who wouldn't consider anything else once she started discussing academics. Then he glanced at Jin Tianyu standing opposite: oh, his expression was subtle.
Jin Tianyu's eyes flashed a touch of complexity. If he didn't know she was a surgical student, given how passionately she advocated for their cardiology department, he would have thought she wanted to stay in their cardiology department.
It should be known that she did not need to say these things; as a student, there was no need for her to stand up for the teachers, yet she intervened and was reprimanded.
Such a student seems to have the ability to touch the teachers deeply.
Jin Tianyu exhaled, adjusting his breath.
