Brain Science Event Book

#waking up in the middle of the night again, I was crying and my pillow was wet.

***

The emergency room was, as usual, stressful and tense.

The girl who was sent to the hospital yesterday suddenly fell into a coma after a night of observation!

"What's going on?" The female doctor who rushed over took out a flashlight.

"I don't know...it was fine just now; suddenly it stopped talking, and then the machine..." The girl's father trembled all over, pointing at the instrument that kept making noises.

"Is it the wounded person brought in yesterday afternoon?"

"Yes! Dr. Tang told me to pay special attention..."

"The pupils are different in size... already in shock!" She turned her head, "Call Dr. Tang! Somebody hurry to confirm the operation room!"

Patient Ge Ruxuan is nine years old.She was the last victim of the serial kidnapping and murder of girls. During the arrest operation, she was pushed by the suspect, resulting in trauma to the head and subsequent chronic intracranial hemorrhage.

Tang Zhichao, who interrupted his ward patrol, rushed to the emergency room. "How's the situation?"

"Brain pressure suddenly soared! Coma index E[-], V[-], M[-]!" (Note)

"Li Qiong! How is the operating room?" He called the emergency physician who had just been assessed.

"empty!"

"Okay! Hurry up and send it in!"

The family members were at a loss, and all the medical staff had already acted quickly. The intubation, drip stand, and equipment were all in place. The hospital bed was pushed from the emergency room to the corridor. All actions were urgent and certain; artificial ventilation was needed Tang Zhichao recalled that his sister specially reminded her yesterday, that focused and careful attitude seemed to treat the girl as a relative.

While staring at the data on the instrument, he put his right hand into his pocket to make a call.

After three rings, there was a brisk response from the receiver.

"Eri."

He said solemnly, "The little girl sent yesterday has something wrong... chronic intracranial hemorrhage, and a sharp rise in brain pressure... I'm going to the operating room now, so let's do this first!"

As a neurosurgeon, Tang Zhichao, who has been exposed to large and small operations since his internship and finally became an attending physician, has a deep understanding of the fatal dangers that brain contusions can cause.

However, he is more aware of the pressure that every operation must bear on his shoulders.

That is the weight of life.

He checked the tomographic scan of the brain and found the bleeding point quickly and accurately.After changing into his surgical gown, and after a series of ritual washings of his hands, he walked into the operating room wearing rubber gloves.

The bright silver light on the operating table illuminates the unconscious girl.

"Heartbeat 85, blood pressure 127/86..." The doctor who completed the anesthesia reported the patient's data, "Vital signs are normal!"

Faced with surgery, he has never failed.

It's the same this time.

"Operation begins."

Thanks to today's holiday, Zhou Jinglin was able to rush to the hospital as soon as possible!

In order to match her, Tang Yingli was in a hurry to change into a dress, but the combination of royal blue trousers and a black shirt with a ruffled collar is still stylish, and her elegant and leisurely appearance is also in contrast with her chic and wild denim pants.

Not only clothing contrasts, but also character and actions. "Where is the operating room?"

Compared to her panic, Tang Yingli seemed to know the way, "Come this way. Don't be nervous! The senior has a lot of experience in handling knives, and the operation has already begun."

"No matter who holds the knife, that little sister Ge... is an important survivor!"

"Of course I know. In order to prevent emergencies, I asked my seniors to pay special attention when I was admitted to the hospital." That phone call fully demonstrated that Tang Zhichao lived up to his trust.

"Wait, senior, senior?" She finally discovered this strange and inexplicable title.

"Um!"

The doctor's surname is also Tang... "I thought it was your brother?"

She chuckled, "Sorry! It's my brother."

"Then why do you call him... Senior?"

"Because we went to the same school from elementary school to high school."

"Even so, it's still weird!"

Tang Yingli had a "predictable" expression, and continued: "My brother is very good! Although there is a difference of eight years, since elementary school, I have constantly felt the excessive attention his aura has attracted. ... "Ah! She is Tang Zhichao's younger sister" and "must be very outstanding" and other whispers, this kind of pressure can make people breathless."

Jinglin followed the instructions in the hospital and rushed to the operating room, but Tang Yingli pulled her in another direction. "Come here!"

"Then..." Isn't it only for the staff in the hospital!

"You can see the operation process from here." As if by magic, he took out the magnetic card, swiped it through the door lock, and the metal door panel slid open quietly!

Jing Lin stared blankly, this woman...is too powerful!

She looked back and curled her lips, "Your expression is so funny."

They trespassed without identification cards, and the nurses who passed by looked at them with the eyes of alien creatures! "Is this... really okay?"

"Just come in for a visit, no problem."

Anyway, it wasn't her idea, she is not responsible for the accident!

"By the way, you're halfway through."

"Huh? Oh! It's stressful, so I came up with a solution."

"How? Shouldn't it be..." She vaguely guessed, "You said he is not your brother, but a senior with the same surname!"

"That's right! The response is very fast!" Tang Yingli blinked mischievously, "It becomes a habit after a long time. And there are really many people who believe that he is just a senior with the same surname as me. If he is called back to the original Doesn’t the title reveal the truth?”

"Your trick is too... But you are really good, aren't you?"

"That is now. Before I have proved myself with my grades, my brother's brilliance completely overwhelmed me." Tang Yingli looked at her and shrugged, "Understood? In your eyes, I am smart, capable and happy .”

That was what Jing Lin had just said to her.

"No one's life is perfect. No one." She repeatedly emphasized, adding a sense of dignity to the atmosphere of this journey.

They rushed to the observation room, where in addition to being filmed by a camera, they could also directly see the doctor and patient holding the knife through the window.

But they are not the first to arrive here.

"Are you... Sister Li Qiong?"

Ren Liqiong turned her head, surprised and delighted when she saw who came. "Eri? You're here!" She grabbed Tang Yingli and looked him over carefully. "Really...it's really you! I can't believe Zhichao said you went back to China... How long has it been since we saw you?"

Tang Yingli let her pull and pull excitedly. "The last time I came back was when I graduated from university... It's been 12 years, right?"

"12 years, a long time! You haven't changed at all! I'm so envious..." She touched the baby's face lightly, and noticed another visitor out of the corner of her eye. "Huh? Who is this?"

"Let me introduce to you... this is Police Officer Zhou Jinglin Zhou, a member of the criminal team."

Jing Lin nodded slightly, "Hello!" She raised her eyes, and one of the cameras was aimed at the severed brain. The blood stains and the wrinkled spherical object forced her to look away immediately!

"Police officer?" Ren Liqiong turned to Tang Yingli in confusion, "How could you..."

"It's like this. I'm assisting the criminal team to investigate the case. This little sister is one of the victims; Police Officer Zhou rescued her, and he was very, very concerned about her condition, so we came over as soon as we received a call from the senior. "

"So that's it!" She looked at Jinglin and her eyes turned into admiration, "Although the intracranial hemorrhage is critical, it is fortunate that it was discovered early, and Zhichao is here... absolutely no problem!" The intercom rang suddenly, "There is a new patients... I'll go back first!"

It wasn't until Ren Liqiong left that Jing Lin said, "So it's not just your brother, you also know other doctors so well?"

"She! She's a little... special." Faced with Jinglin's doubts, she replied, "It's the ex-girlfriend of the senior! But I heard that she is married."

"Oh!"

Tang Yingli pushed his glasses, and was quickly attracted by the scene on the screen, "The bleeding point is under the dura mater, and the occipital lobe can be seen... This cortex is so beautiful!"

"Can you watch it?" She dare not look at it now!

"Well! I have also seen a living human brain, although it is not as good as the senior... We also dissect the brains of other animals in the laboratory to study the similarity with the human brain; I have also come into contact with split-brain patients! "There was a bit of complacency in his tone.

"Split brain?"

"It is to completely cut the fiber bundle called the corpus callosum between the left and right hemispheres, or keep only a small part, such as the anterior symphysis, and then create a completely or almost completely separated left and right brain..." The words spit out seem to become aliens Tang Yingli began to talk about the language, "...was used to treat the fatal epileptic complex state, but now it is treated with drugs!"

Jing Lin's sluggish expression made her laugh. "A little difficult to understand? Sorry! But this is my specialty."

"You brothers and sisters...are very good at studying the brain!"

"Isn't it just something you've seen and heard? The senior has been highly interested in the brain since he entered the medical department, and I was also fascinated at that time."

But instead of becoming a doctor, she became a brain scientist and a criminal profiler of the police investigation unit.

"Is it because you are afraid of pressure that you didn't go to medical school?" Jing Lin couldn't help asking.

She shook her head decisively. "The purpose of a doctor is to save people; the reason why I want to understand the brain is for other things."

Jing Lin suddenly remembered that unnatural smile when she was talking to the murderer.She instantly established the same frequency with him, and got a response.

Including the content of the dialogue, it is all the skills of the criminal profiler, right?

"The teacher's so-called 'other things'... must not be something to be happy about?" Even if it is something that can affect her life, she never mentions it.

"That's true!" She smiled lightly and continued to watch the operation process intently.

Hearing her response like this made Jinglin feel a sense of frustration.

The frustration of being excluded.

But exactly why she should feel frustrated... She didn't know either.

Note: The Coma Scale, also known as the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), refers to the use of the patient's eye opening (E), speaking (V), and movement (M) responses to judge the patient's consciousness.
