Practicing Medicine in Three Kingdoms

"But didn't you say that you have formulated a medicine that is comparable to Mafeisan?" Sun Shangxiang asked.

The pain seemed to come along the tightly clasped knuckles. She clasped the back of her sister-in-law's hands with both hands, and rubbed her fingertips to create a trace of warmth.

Li Yinzhou opened the prepared equipment box, the sharp and smooth knife surface shone with silver light, reflecting a pair of slightly dilated pupils.

The idea of ​​using datura flowers to configure anesthetics is indeed feasible.

This poisonous medicinal material can effectively relieve pain and relieve spasm, and other poisons can also be relieved with activated charcoal, but anesthesia still involves the most serious problem——

monitor.

It is not difficult to anesthetize people. The most well-known anesthesia is actually drunkenness. Early animal experiments in the West often relied on alcohol anesthesia, and it was still used as an alternative until the 21st century.

What is really difficult is real-time monitoring of the vital signs of comatose patients. Without modern equipment, it is difficult to accurately display indicators such as blood oxygen, blood pressure, ECG, and ventilation.

The condition of the mother can still be deduced through physical examination, but the fetus hidden in the uterus can hardly be observed.When the mother's body is completely relaxed, the fetus can easily be crushed to suffocation without anyone knowing.

Even in modern medicine with advanced medical technology, it is not easy to use general anesthesia for caesarean section unless it is absolutely necessary.

He repeated experiments many times, and within a short period of time, he could only prepare general anesthesia that won by quantity, which was far from the high-precision spinal anesthesia required for caesarean section.

In other words, to ensure the safety of the fetus, it must be done while the mother is awake.

But it's not the only option.

Li Yinzhou poured the anesthetic prepared in the gourd into a bowl, and brought it in front of the young lady.

"You still have another way out." He tried his best to keep his fingers steady, "If you give up this child, you'll treat it as if you were sick. The general is capricious, and he will understand you."

A soft word, like a cold wind sweeping through a woman's teary eyes, stirred up a turbulent wave.

"No." She didn't hesitate.

Sun Shangxiang hugged her behind protectively, his eyes were like a kitten's fur: "Ayin, please explain clearly first, why can't mother and child be perfect?"

"Once the mother is in a coma, the fetus is not only vulnerable to anesthetic poisoning, but also extremely easy to suffocate. You can choose to gamble." He squatted down and looked at the young lady, "But I can only promise to do my best to save your life .”

The sound of the rain was pattering, and occasionally drifting water droplets soaked the panes, silently drawing a deep water stain.

he whispered

Di persuaded: "You are still young, you can still have another child. Even if you don't have children, you still have a general. Even if the general is not around, you should cherish your life."

The strength of clasping Sun Shangxiang's five fingers was slightly released.

Young Madam tried her best to stretch out her arm, and took the bowl of cold soup from Li Yinzhou's hand, her fingernails trembling against Tao's wall, making a palpitating crisp sound.

Li Yinzhou turned his back and lit a clump of moxa fire.

- Wow.

If the eaves can't hold the rainwater pouring for a moment, then there is a clear tick, tick, tick.

The light red potion slowly spread to the feet along the veins of the floor.

"Aren't you the gentleman invited by Cigu?" The pale lips parted and closed slightly, with fine beads of sweat condensed, like the wings of a butterfly fluttering weakly and stubbornly after the rain, "You must keep this child, this is your responsibility."

"No." Li Yinzhou paused for a moment, then continued, "It is my responsibility to complete your choice."

--------------

The sound of footsteps in the corridor was like arrow rain.

Mrs. Sun led several steady women, and walked quickly through the scattered courtyards.

The muddy water splashed on the skirt of the skirt, but her expression remained unmoved, only her eyes narrowed occasionally due to the raindrops.

The servant held the umbrella high and closely followed the master's footsteps with a gap of half a step. Half of his body was drenched in the rain, and his voice became more and more trembling: "Didn't you invite Mr. Zhang's closed disciple? And the young lady's complexion a few days ago?" It’s okay, even if the month is missing ten and a half days, it doesn’t matter.”

"Preservation is his business, but he is a half-grown boy, what kind of work does he know about delivering babies?" The old lady squinted at him, her nostrils were slightly dilated, "He is smart, but he is more courageous, so it is difficult to guarantee that he will not do it." What a fool."

"Yes, ma'am, let's use him when we can, but we have to rely on our own people when it's critical."

Old Mrs. Sun nodded slightly, and her eyes fell on the front. The long wind parted the deep rain curtain, and a thin but tall figure stood in front of the house with a sword in her arms.

She didn't think deeply, and walked quickly and steadily, until a blue scabbard blocked her chest.

"You're crazy." She stared at the boy holding the sword.

"If my mother goes in at this time, she will be really crazy." Sun Quan raised his eyebrows, "A Yin and A Xiang have already given birth inside with someone to accompany them, and they don't need other people's help."

Mrs. Sun looked over his straight shoulders, and a shrill cry suddenly shook the doors and windows——

"Ah—! Ugh..."

"That's what you call needing no help

? She sneered, "Little sister is not sensible, and even you are messing around with me?" "

Sun Quan did not answer.

With a thumbs up, he slowly drew his sword out of its sheath.

There was a cold sword light in the cold eyes: "My son is going to mess around today."

……

The cold dispute outside the door soaked into the delivery room accompanied by the sound of wind and rain.

Li Yinzhou grasped the blood-dripping blade, his eyes became calm again, and the rainstorm and wind brushed against his ears, it was like whispering softly.

He concentrated on the knife, the veins in his wrists were slightly raised, and he was full of palm strength and patience.

Every time the knife fell, the body that was firmly pressed against the wooden board would bounce violently like a fish in a marsh.Li Yinzhou raised his eyes from his methodical busyness: "Press OK."

Sun Shangxiang couldn't bear to watch, her brows almost knit together: "Sister-in-law only drank half a bowl of medicine, how could she bear it..."

Li Yinzhou had no time to comfort her, and coldly reprimanded the maids with trembling arms: "If you want Madam to suffer less, I will use your strength."

The maids closed their eyes, their backs trembled like sieves, and they knelt and used their body weight to suppress the lady's movements.

Li Yinzhou lowered his eyelashes, but his eyes were exceptionally clear.

They are not doctors, they can be afraid and close their eyes, but he can't.Every knife is like weighing with the god of death, and a slight difference may lead to a catastrophe.

He must keep his eyes open and see carefully and clearly.

Under the faint light of the fire, the slender figure is reflected on the wall, trembling slightly like a thin vine, but no matter how it is dragged by the wind and rain, it has the tenacity that cannot be climbed.

After treating the belly, Li Yinzhou looked away, and his eyes fell on his wife's sweaty face.The tightly stuffed lips of Bubo were almost torn apart by the distorted expression, blood streaks ooze from the corners of the chapped lips.

And under the wet eyelashes, a pair of eyes filled with tears seemed to sense his gaze, and they stared at him for a moment.

The tightly twisted eyelids were stretched vigorously, as if nodding.

Li Yinzhou turned his eyes, raised the knife, and swiped it down neatly without hesitation.

……

A silvery white lightning suddenly struck down, and the mountains and rivers were suddenly brightened for a moment, and then shrouded in the shadow of thick clouds again.

In the thunder that followed, a crisp cry pierced the rainy night.

"Sister-in-law." Sun Shangxiang held her dirty little body covered in meconium, amniotic fluid and blood, and couldn't believe that she was so light.

She knelt on the ground and handed the baby to her carefully: "It's a girl, wrinkled, but it will look good in the future, just do whatever you want."

Li Yinzhou didn't have time to participate in their warm film

At this moment, he slumped on the ground exhausted, his arms cramped belatedly.

The cloth from the young lady's lips was removed, her pale chapped lips were murmured, her teeth collided up and down, and she seemed to be speechless.

Sun Shangxiang seemed to think of something: "It's better to be a girl, brother will love her more than me."

The other party's trembling eyelashes closed forcefully.

Li Yinzhou stood up abruptly, ignoring her throbbing arms and blood stains on her hands, and forcefully opened her eyelids.

Pale.

Followed by Sun Shangxiang's scream: "A Yin, blood! So much blood!"

Li Yinzhou's heart sank, and he immediately opened the wound that had just been sutured with hemp thread. The incision that had just been cleaned was soaked in blood.

His temples twitched violently for a moment as if being hammered.

This is the most dangerous complication of placenta previa——

Postpartum hemorrhage.

"Hold it down." He quickly grabbed a piece of cloth that had been steamed and sterilized, and stuffed it tightly into Sun Shangxiang's hand, "Give the child to the servant, and hold down the bleeding point."

Sun Shangxiang's eyes flustered for a moment, and then she nodded vigorously, handing the newborn child to the safest and oldest woman, knelt down with a bang, unfolded the cloth, and tightly suppressed the gushing of blood with all her strength.

In a short moment, Li Yinzhou had cleaned his hands again and held a new blade.

Before the knife was cut, there was a loud bang, and the manic wind and rain rushed straight into the room wrapped in billowing anger.

"Where's my grandson?" Mrs. Sun searched eagerly, and immediately saw the grandson she was thinking about in the arms of the old woman, walked over with her heart, and lifted the loosely wrapped swaddle.

Her eager gaze seemed to have been poured with cold water, and her expression returned to a clay sculpture-like compassion, her eyes fixed on the ruddy-skinned child: "Forget it, a girl is fine, just add a boy later, that's a good word." It's also female first."

Sun Quan walked in with a sword in hand, his eyes swept away from the grandparent and grandson, and soon fell on the two partners who were still surrounding the pregnant woman.

"What's wrong with her?" His eyes drooped, and a pale face came into view unexpectedly.

Li Yinzhou suppressed his deep voice: "The young master should stop others as agreed."

Sun Quan frowned: "Isn't the child already out?"

So when his mother bumped into him, he still withdrew his sword.

"In this case, the old lady and the young master can go out." He continued to slash without raising his head.

Granny Sun seemed to realize something now, she shifted her gaze to the unconscious parturient, and walked over quickly.

She stood behind Sun Shangxiang, a faint shadow tremblingly enveloped her.

"What are you doing! Are you trying to kill my son?"

The author has something to say: By the way, Brother Ce didn’t know about this, so he didn’t tell him

By the way, the little girl Huan didn't hide her mind, she went to Sichuan to start the story of her life, let's talk about the night rain in Bashan in the future
