The “Bomb Disposal Expert” at the Top of My Mind——In Memory of Huang Haobo, the Second “Most Beautiful Doctor” in Hunan Province
August 19 is the sixth “Chinese Doctors’ Day”. Huang Haobo, executive deputy director and chief physician of the Cardiovascular Surgery Department of Xiangtan Central Hospital of Hunan Province, who has been fighting on the medical front for 24 years, received a special holiday gift – he was awarded the title of “The Most Beautiful Doctor” in the second session of Hunan Province. When the news came out, Huang Haobo’s former patients told reporters that the doctor was indeed “beautiful” and that he was a top “bomb disposal expert.”
In 21 years, more than 9,000 surgeries were performed with “zero accidents”
There is a saying in the cardiovascular community: “We are not afraid of the sky or the earth, but we are afraid of calcification of blood vessels.” Unfortunately, Li Yong, a citizen of Xiangtan City, was diagnosed with calcification of the coronary arteries of his heart. In March this year, his condition worsened and angina pectoris became more frequent.
Huang Haobo told reporters that vascular calcification is a disease in which calcium accumulates on the blood vessel wall. Calcification of the coronary arteries of the heart will harden the blood vessels at the diseased location, causing them to become narrow or even occluded. , blocked blood flow, life-threatening.
Under the leadership of Wu Mingxing, an expert in cardiovascular surgery at the hospital, Huang Haobo discussed repeatedly with his colleagues, comprehensively evaluated the “time bomb” in Li Yong’s heart, and finally chose to use shock wave ball Capsular technique (intravascular shock wave calcification fragmentation), interventional treatment. This technology will be clinically used in the United States in 2021, and was only approved for commercial use internationally last year. There are still very few hospitals in my country that carry out intravascular shock wave calcification fragmentation.
Huang Haobo is not afraid to be a “crab eater”. Before the operation, he carefully studied the case and made careful arrangements based on his advanced experience studying abroad. During the operation, he used a balloon catheter to deliver pulsed shock waves of a specific frequency to the vascular calcification site, and then used the mechanical energy released by intermittent pulses to “beat” the calcified structures in the blood vessels in a local and efficient vibration mode. Make it crumble.
After participating in the operation, Li Yong’s blood vessels at the site of his heart attack were significantly widened, blood flow was restored, and normal vascular tissue was not damaged. He recovered and was discharged soon after.
“To perform surgery, you need to be bold and thoughtful.” Over the years, Huang Haobo has led the team to work diligently to overcome technical difficulties and remove “regularly” pieces of blood in the patient’s heart. bomb”.
At present, the interventional diagnosis and treatment technology of Xiangtan Central Hospital enjoys a high reputation in Hunan Province. The hospital is also a national-level training base for interventional diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease and arrhythmia. Not long ago, cardiovascular surgery was approved by the National ClinicalThe bedside key specialty construction project is the first national key clinical specialty construction project in traditional Chinese medicine in a general hospital in Xiangtan.
Information provided by Xiangtan Central Hospital shows that Huang Haobo has been involved in cardiovascular surgery for 21 years. Jamaica Sugar Daddy More than 9,000 surgical procedures have been performed JM Escorts with “zero accidents”.
In 3 years, more than 1,800 participating surgeries were completed through ambulance transport
Talking about his 21 years in the cardiovascular surgery department, Huang Haoyao said emotionally: “The six years in the cardiovascular surgery department in the South Campus were a very unforgettable time.”
Due to the different social functions of state-owned enterprises, at the end of 2015, the entire Xiangtan Iron and Steel Workers Hospital was transferred to Xiangtan Central Hospital and became its southern campus. According to the organizational setting, Huang Haobo served as the director of cardiovascular surgery in the hospital in February of the following year.
The original basic infrastructure of the southern hospital district was weak and the medical conditions were imperfect JM Escorts. The first difficulty facing Huang Haobo was: without a cardiac catheterization laboratory, there was nowhere to perform surgery.
He immediately applied to the hospital for construction of a cath lab, but it would take three years for the project to go from approval to put into use. The patient’s condition cannot afford to wait, nor can the department’s growth.
Huang Haobo decisively decided to adopt the “transport surgery” method. Everyone in the South Campus participated in the operation, and all the patients were transported by ambulance from Hedong to the headquarters of Xiangtan Central Hospital in Hexi. After he and his colleagues completed the operation at the headquarters, they returned to the South Campus.
“The first transfer operation was performed on New Year’s Day.” Huang Haobo recalled.
According to statistics, during the three years of construction of the cardiac catheterization laboratory in the South Campus, Huang Haobo led the team to complete more than 1,800 participating surgeries, filling many business vacancies in the hospital and handing over The answer to “zero complications, zero accidents”.
“For these more than 1,800 surgeries, we use ambulances to transport them out one by one against the clock.of. “During the interview, Huang Haobo expressed quite proudly.
He told reporters that although this form of “ants moving” is hard, he can participate and follow the entire journey, and he has a good understanding of the condition. It is clearer and the diagnosis and treatment are more accurate.
In previous years, he has been transferred back to the headquarters from the South Campus, but he still travels back and forth between Xiangtan Hedong and Hexi every Tuesday morning. When I go to the South Campus for a consultation, no matter how long the outpatient team is, I have to see the last patient before going home.
As a cardiovascular surgeon, long-term exposure to X-ray radiation will inevitably cause harm to the body. According to regulations, Huang Haobo can enjoy one month of paid leave every year, but he has never taken it.
A few years ago, Huang Haobo was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and needed to take medication for the rest of his life. Some people around him kindly advised him to put his health first and leave the surgery, but he did not agree. Arterial interventional surgery is my lifelong passion and pursuit. I am willing to spend my whole life doing the surgery to the best of my ability! ” His words were sonorous and his eyes were decisive.
As soon as the interview ended, Huang Haobo put on a heavy lead suit, walked into the cath lab, and continued to “defuse bombs” on the apex of his heart. (Hunan Daily All-media reporter Peng Ting)
