Chapter 2605: Cutting-Edge Information

Tan Kelin, also a native of Beidu, has never worked in Beidou Third Hospital. Cui Shaofeng raised his eyebrows: You’re aware that Beidou Third Hospital is heavily specialized.

The Beidu Third Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Department stands out on its own, and the entire hospital nearly revolves around the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, with the other departments’ skills lagging behind, except for the spinal surgery department. New obstetrics and gynecology doctors like Liu Li don’t even bother learning from other departments during internal training; there’s nothing much to learn, so they might as well start working in obstetrics and gynecology directly.

Regarding other specialized knowledge, Liu Li can only rely on the accumulation from the internship period. The limited learning during the internship mainly involves closely following the instructors, unlike the independence of specialized training.

Medical textbooks are unimaginably thick, with knowledge points that are massive. More frightening is that many disease knowledge points are similar here. For medical students and young doctors, if they haven’t experienced it in clinical practice, they either can’t recall it or mistake it for another disease.

The importance of experience for a doctor is shown here.

Let’s revisit the characteristics of the obstetrics department. The characteristic is the youthfulness of the patients in obstetrics. The so-called elderly pregnant women are over thirty years old. Patients who are thirty would still be considered young in other departments, with elderly patients being sixty years and above.

Older diseases, such as arterial sclerosis that Mother Yaxi suspects, are extremely rare among young pregnant women. Coronary heart disease? Pregnant women with heart attacks may exist, but they are still considered rare cases.

Liu Li is working diligently to suspect rare diseases.

Here’s more about the accumulation of clinical experience for doctors. Clinical experience for doctors relies on encountering cases. Case experience isn’t accumulated just by encountering them; it’s about diagnosis. Otherwise, encountering patients without knowing the disease doesn’t count as accumulated diagnostic experience.

Therefore, the accumulation of some diseases is closely related to the development of medical technology. Previously, some diseases couldn’t be diagnosed due to inadequate medical examination instruments, leading them to be overlooked. Over time, the cases of these diseases increased significantly. Did this disease suddenly start to spread domestically? Not necessarily. It’s quite possible that medical technology advanced enough to identify a large number of patients with the disease that had been latent in the patient population.

Such situations belong to cutting-edge intelligence in the medical field. Young doctors like Liu Li are slow to obtain this information. Only the Bosses have the advantage of information channels.

Tan Kelin recalled when his student was injured while he was attending an academic conference. He was exchanging ideas with other recognized leaders, discussing a certain disease recently discovered to be increasing domestically.

Keep in mind that these experts share information through private exchanges. Medicine is cautious; information announced publicly requires thorough verification from multiple parties before being widely disseminated.

This same reason explains why Liu Li and ordinary people are slow to receive information.

The disparity in medical information doesn’t just exist between inside and outside the medical circle; it also exists between bosses and non-bosses.

Tan Kelin thought about it this way; his cousin couldn’t comprehend it.

The unusual aspect is — his apprentice.

Tan Kelin: ==

As a reborn person, Xie Wanying had this advantage. For instance, when she first encountered Senior Cao, she could suspect an aortic aneurysm because she came from the future, knowing the increasing clinical discovery of such patients, which should not be underestimated.

Now, she judges Mother Yaxi’s cervical symptoms as possibly originating from an aortic disease in the same way.
