Chapter 0003: The Eight Methods of Muscle Regulation
"Then I will just speak casually. If I say something incorrect, I hope the teachers will not mind..." Fang Han said modestly, a bit shy, but in his heart, he had already summoned the system
In the consultation room, Guo Wenyuan slowly spoke: "Treating illnesses and saving lives is akin to the art of warfare; speed is of the essence. Once the opportunity for battle is missed, it is possible to lose everything. The patient's condition is urgent, and while some low-probability accidents are naturally unavoidable, this must be clearly explained to the patient's family"
According to the situation mentioned by Director Qin, we can conclude that the patient's condition is likely due to the invasion of heat toxins, obstruction of blood circulation, and accumulation of damp heat, which subsequently manifests on the skin... thus leading to the patient's yellowing of the skin, hence referred to as 'acute jaundice'. The treatment should naturally involve methods to invigorate blood circulation, resolve stasis, promote diuresis, and clear heat and detoxify.
The attending physician fell silent, and the observation room was immediately filled with silence once more
Fundamental skills of traditional Chinese medicine, also known as appropriate technologies of traditional Chinese medicine, can also be referred to as skills related to traditional Chinese therapeutic methods
Today, there are several attending physicians in the observation room; for the intern Fang Han, the attending physicians are akin to high-level wild monsters.
But if we don't say something, wouldn't we miss such a great opportunity to show off
Extending his hand, Fang Han attempted to transform his techniques in several ways. The pressing method, the kneading method, the pushing method, the rolling method, the chopping method, the striking method, the shaking method, and the swaying method—all movements were executed with remarkable smoothness and agility, as if he had practiced them countless times
As Fang Han began to speak, everyone was astonished. Are you just saying this casually? Are you sure it's just casual? If this is casual and yet so professional, what would happen if you were serious? Would the others even survive?
At this moment, Fang Han was also very pleased, as the system notification indicated: "Worship Points ... ... + 162."
162 points, plus an additional 62 points, it is simply too cost-effective. Over the past few days, Fang Han has also roughly figured out that these worship points are mostly calculated per person, with each individual able to provide only one point each time. However, if there are peers present, the worship points provided differ based on their titles. Especially when having peers with higher titles worship, it is akin to defeating monsters at a higher level, yielding greater experience.
The observation room allows for visibility into the consultation room, and at times, it is also possible to hear the sounds from the consultation room; however, the sounds from the observation room cannot be heard within the consultation room. Ren Haiqiang's inquiry was merely a casual test, and such interactions are beneficial for the growth of medical professionals
I rely on ... ...
As soon as Fang Han finished speaking, Guo Wenyuan in the consultation room began to speak, and his words were quite similar to those of Fang Han
Fang Han was in high spirits when a system notification echoed in his mind: "Ding... You have received recognition from a high-level peer in the same profession for the first time. Reward: Permanent National Medical Basic Skill - Eight Methods of Muscle Regulation (Advanced)."
Fang Han glanced around and continued, "This possibility certainly exists, but we should consider the patient's condition from a holistic perspective. What is the current state of the patient? The sudden onset of the illness puts the patient's life at immediate risk. It can be said that the patient is now in an extremely critical situation. A physician's use of medicine is akin to a general's strategy in warfare; speed is of the essence. If a single treatment does not yield immediate results, there is a significant risk of missing the opportune moment. Moreover, there are precedents in contemporary traditional Chinese medicine where red peony root has been used extensively. The renowned master Wang Yuncheng has proposed the treatment approach of 'cooling the blood and invigorating circulation with a heavy emphasis on red peony root.'"
To some extent, traditional Chinese medicine relies not only on understanding but also on the principle that practice makes perfect. In that brief moment, Fang Han felt as if he had been imparted with the experience of an elderly traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who had been performing massage for decades, although this experience was limited solely to the Eight Techniques of Muscle Manipulation.
Many people are familiar with massage therapy; Tui Na massage is a traditional Chinese medicine skill, and essentially, most practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine understand one or two Tui Na techniques
The Eight Methods of Muscle Manipulation belong to the category of massage techniques, specifically a type of manual therapy.
At this point, the attending physician hurriedly fell silent. Nowadays, most traditional Chinese medicine practitioners understand some common knowledge of Western medicine, such as the fact that red peony root has an antiplatelet aggregation effect. The term 'platelet' is a Western medical term, which does not exist in traditional Chinese medicine
Many people stared in disbelief, wondering how this could be possible. Several attending physicians even took a special look at Fang Han's chest, which was completely bare in front, lacking a name tag. This was indeed a characteristic of an intern.
Fang Han paid no attention to others and continued speaking to himself: "As for whether red peony has the effect of inhibiting platelet aggregation, will it cause widespread internal bleeding?"
Take acupuncture as an example, even if you are very talented, without sufficient practice, it is impossible to become an expert in acupuncture
When did intern doctors become so impressive
The traditional Chinese medicine techniques commonly referred to today include acupuncture, moxibustion, massage therapy (manual techniques), external treatments in traditional Chinese medicine, internal administration methods, and the preparation of Chinese herbal medicine
"Speak up." Ren Haiqiang said with a smile, looking at Fang Han. He had an impression of this young man; he was quite an impressive young man.
The attending physician meant the same thing; however, he stopped speaking halfway through. The prescription was modified by Guo Wenyuan. Who is Guo Wenyuan? He is the absolute authority at Jiangzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. To question Guo Wenyuan? It is evident that this attending physician does not yet have the courage to do so
The methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine include acupuncture, massage, cupping, gua sha, internal and external use of medicinal substances, as well as the preparation and combination of these treatments
Is this really an intern? Which family has such an outstanding intern, could it be a closed-door disciple of a national champion?
This time, Fang Han has certainly made a significant impression. In this expert-level case consultation, Fang Han surprisingly has his own perspective, and most importantly, this perspective is entirely correct. Guo Wenyuan's explanation undoubtedly affirms Fang Han's views
Everyone's mind is as clear as a mirror. Although everyone is currently in the observation room, the experts in the consultation room did not hear a word of Fang Han's remarks just now. However, the observation room has records, and there might even be video recordings
In simple terms, Guo Wenyuan is the king, while the attending physician is merely gold; gold questions the king... How will others interpret this when it spreads?
Zhang Haiqiang in the observation room smiled and said: "Is there anyone who has any thoughts upon seeing this? If you have any thoughts, feel free to express them"
Xiao Chai Hu Decoction clears heat and detoxifies, targeting the patient's heat toxin; Jun Chen Hao Decoction clears heat and promotes diuresis, addressing the patient's damp-heat; Chi Shao clears heat, cools the blood, dispels stasis, and alleviates pain, focusing on the patient's blood stasis
The hierarchy in the medical field is extremely strict, layer upon layer. Interns must address residents as teachers, and residents must show respect to attending physicians. Guo Wenyuan's status is far superior to that of a chief physician, to the extent that conventional medical titles can no longer be used to define it
Acupuncture and moxibustion are collectively referred to as acupuncture. There are many intricacies in acupuncture, and even many national-level practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine may not necessarily possess the mastery of a grandmaster in this field. Each expert in acupuncture is renowned in their own right
Ren Haiqiang glanced around and said: "Does anyone have any opinions? Feel free to speak up, this illness is not dependent on your treatment, so it doesn't matter if you say something wrong."
A group of people exchanged glances, as this case was somewhat profound for most in the observation room, especially for a group of interns. Most of these individuals were still at the theoretical stage, with almost no practical experience. Even minor ailments like a slight cold or fever might not be manageable for them at this moment, let alone such a serious condition.
As the system prompt came to an end, Fang Han felt that his mind suddenly filled with a considerable amount of information, and his hands became much more agile.
The Eight Methods of Muscle Regulation? Permanent? Is it still advanced?
Exchange of Temporary Intermediate Medical Case Analysis
A group of people exchanged glances, all waiting for you to speak
The consultation room was silent as a grave, with everyone waiting for Guo Wenyuan to provide clarity.
It is well known that platelets have a coagulation function, and once platelets are scarce, it is highly likely to cause internal bleeding
The thoughts of the incoming interns have become even more complex
Acupuncture and Tuina? Fang Han was somewhat impatient and eager to find someone to immediately test his Eight Methods of Muscle Manipulation.
The consultation room next door was empty, and the attending physicians and residents in the observation room also got up to leave. Ren Haiqiang glanced at the time: "It is getting late, everyone go have lunch. In the afternoon, we will familiarize ourselves with each department, starting with acupuncture and massage, then moving on to the health recovery department. You will have three days to get acquainted with the departments, and after three days, we will assign you to specific departments. The departments operate on a rotation system"
Someone couldn't help but curse at that moment, staring intensely at Fang Han
Traditional Chinese Medicine is an empirical practice, often relying on rich experience in diagnosing illnesses and saving lives through medication and acupuncture. Both the acuity of observation and the skillful techniques are not achieved overnight
"May I say something?" Fang Han stood up, feeling somewhat embarrassed. With so many attending physicians present, is it really appropriate for an intern to express an opinion?
Those who understand Traditional Chinese Medicine know that it encompasses not only prescriptions but also methods. Prescriptions refer to the formulas, but even accurate formulas require appropriate methods. Different methods yield different results; sometimes, even if the formula is correct, if the method is not, it will be of no use.
"Feel free to speak," Ren Haiqiang encouraged.
The observation room fell silent for a moment, and a chief physician spoke up, specifically addressing the dosage of Chishao modified by Guo Wenyuan: "Chishao has the effects of clearing heat, cooling the blood, and alleviating pain, which are indeed appropriate for the condition. However, Chishao also has the effect of inhibiting platelet aggregation, and such a large dosage..."
Fang Han was momentarily taken aback, not expecting that the system had an additional reward mechanism
