The subsequent patent application, clinical trials, review, compliance with relevant US regulations, production and sales, including the establishment of a new subsidiary, Zhou Qiao was used to being a shopkeeper, so he naturally left them all to Jess Shepard Virtue takes responsibility.
Maybe Zhou Qiao will participate in the clinical trial, and other Zhou Qiao is too lazy to work hard.
Of course, Zhou Qiao gave this opportunity to Jace, and it was up to him whether he could do well. If the performance is unsatisfactory, Zhou Qiao can still be replaced.
Luoya Group now has a lot of talents in reserve. There are elites recruited from all over the world. It shouldn't be a problem to find someone who is qualified.
As for Zhou Qiao himself, he naturally devoted himself to the operation.
Leave professional matters to professionals. If he is not familiar with the business field, leave it to Jess. As for surgery, he will naturally take the lead.
Boston Medical was very efficient and sent the samples within two days. The other party used the popular 3D printing technology, so it was very fast.
Clinically, each patient's specific tissues, organs and lesions are unique, but traditional medical devices generally have standardized shapes and sizes and cannot truly meet the needs of each patient.
The 3D printing technology used by Boston Medical Company this time can quickly provide relatively low-cost device manufacturing based on the specific parameters provided by Zhou Qiao, and is very suitable for widespread application in medical customization.
This kind of medical 3D application, not to mention the United States, even in China, has already had relevant regulatory support, such as the "Customized Medical Device Supervision and Administration Regulations" that were officially implemented on January 1, 2020.
Zhou Qiao’s customized samples this time also went through clinical trials. After he communicated with the patients and their families, the patients and their families expressed their willingness to accept this "clinical trial."
In fact, it is not a test, but a specially made life-saving thing. The reason for taking this route is just for compliance.
Patients and families are particularly understanding.
If you don't understand it, it won't work. If you don't understand it or accept it, then you will die! So it was quite refreshing for them to sign.
It is worth mentioning that Boston Medical Company pays special attention to it, so the materials used this time are relatively advanced, using digital light processing technology to achieve multi-material 3D printing of hydrogel-polymer composite structures, integrating multi-functional flexible structures and devices. Rapid integrated molding.
The hydrogel-shape memory polymer material added to the material also has the function of sustained drug release and can automatically expand and expand hardened and narrow cardiovascular systems at a body temperature of 37°C.
Experiments by Boston Medical Company have shown that drug-loaded hydrogels release 3%, 16% and 30% of the drug after 2 minutes, 30 minutes and 1 hour respectively, and can be completely released after 24 hours.
In fact, these are all the research results of previous academician Domitri. Academician Domitri's research institute has a wide range of interests because he owns too many companies. The field that won the Nobel Prize is just one of the more prominent topics.
After a lot of accumulation and many projects, I finally catalyzed a Nobel Prize-level project. But everything else is not bad, because the researchers in the institute started out as Ph.D.s from prestigious universities. Schools that are slightly worse will not be considered at all.
With this hydrogel-polymer high-precision multi-material complex mixed three-dimensional structure of the body-shaped aortic arch stent graft system, this patient's condition has become "simple".
Many times, advanced technology and equipment directly solve the core key of surgery and make the impossible possible. This is the beauty of modern medicine.
Although traditional medicine has advantages in some diseases, for serious diseases, modern high technology still needs to be introduced. This is also what it should be. After all, times are developing.
Science and technology are changing with each passing day, and "new techniques" and "old techniques" in medicine will also collide and become obsolete.
…
Zhou Qiao reviewed the previously planned surgical plan with Murphy and Stephanie, and then preparations for the operation began.
Community hospital operating room.
Doctors from many departments still came to the monitoring room to observe, and Zhou Qiao did not refuse. However, there would be no post-operative experience sharing sessions without compensation. How much they can learn depends on everyone's understanding.
That is to say, you can watch it, but I don’t teach or explain it.
In fact, the technical core of this fully intracavity minimally invasive surgery lies in the innovative stent. Without this thing, this case would have been impossible.
The anesthesia team is still the senior Nancy and her anesthesia nurse.
And on Zhou Qiao's side, how could he miss Elena and Ava, a beautiful couple?
At this moment, the song Aiwa played was the very beautiful "Fireworks on Earth": "A man later crossed the south of the Yangtze River, and was melancholy in the misty rain. He heard the awnings shaking gently, and he didn't know what he was thinking. The boats were singing with the sound of drums and whistles. It breaks one's heart, but whose house has the fragrance of plum blossoms on its wall..."
They have made great progress in Chinese now and can understand some simple lyrics, so they especially love the Chinese style series, because the lyrics in the Chinese style series are very beautiful, which is particularly attractive to foreigners like them who have just dabbled in Chinese.
There is no harm without comparison. Ava had heard a great English song before and recommended it to Zhou Qiao. The song was great, but when she saw the lyrics, she almost fainted. Compared with the Chinese style series, it looks like a kindergarten.
Of course, being simple and catchy is also one of its advantages.
"There was once a ship that went out to sea. Its name was the Teapot. As the wind blew, it set sail. Blow as hard as the wind blows. It will come back soon and bring us sugar, tea and rum... "
However, the melody is really good, and the more I listen to it, the more I get hooked on it, but it just can’t be translated. The lyrics of this song "Wellerman" are relatively good, and there are many simpler and more childish famous songs.
Zhou Qiao concentrated on the operation. With the assistance of two beautiful assistants, Murphy and Stephanie, he introduced the stent through the right femoral artery and brachial artery, and positioned the main body of the new stent in the patient's ascending aorta.
Expand to cover the entire diseased area and establish a good "foundation".
Subsequently, the three blood vessel branches were "connected" one by one to reopen the blood vessel "pathway".
The steps may sound simple, but the actual operation naturally requires sophisticated techniques.
The risks are also very high. Because the aortic hematoma is easily damaged, and if the blood vessels on the aortic arch fail to be reconstructed, brain damage will occur.
Therefore, despite having innovative tools, Zhou Qiao is still cautious and not careless in the slightest.
The entire operation is like a "cliff rope". The "rope" is still a very thin steel wire. If not careful, the patient will fall into the abyss.
Finally, an hour later, the operation was successfully completed.
On the second day after the operation, the patient was able to get out of bed and move around normally, and still had the strength to chat with the nurse.
The patient's family members were pleasantly surprised. They never expected that the treatment would produce significant results so quickly. You know, before the operation, the patient was lying in the hospital bed all day long, feeling like he was waiting to die.
After having this surgery, it felt like a new spring had arrived.
A reexamination three days later revealed that the aortic dissection aneurysm that had been "igniting everywhere" in the patient's body had been completely "isolated". With some other examinations and comprehensive evaluation, the patient met the criteria for discharge.
Of course, if you want to stay a few more days and take more medicine, you can, and Zhou Qiao can make more money. But after meeting the discharge criteria, Zhou Qiao made it clear to the patient and family members that it was up to them to decide whether they could live in the hospital or not.
Compared to the cost of the surgery, that little money was nothing. Zhou Qiao didn't want to damage his reputation just for a small profit.
People at the community hospital say that Dr. Zhou is really a shining star. It seems that he has never failed since his debut, which is simply a miracle.
Regarding this operation, Zhou Qiao continued to discuss with Murphy and Stephanie in private, and they introduced new methods, developed new surgical methods, and formulated different surgical plans for different complex types of aortic dissection, so as to improve the Iris Clinic. technical reserves.
After this kind of private discussion, you will be able to do it more perfectly next time you encounter a similar or more complex situation.
