Chapter 540 - 540 540 Sudden Change During the Surgery
?Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Sudden Change During the Surgery Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Sudden Change During the Surgery The surgery started quickly. Besides Jeffrey Foster and Irene Wallis, there were several top domestic cardiovascular surgeons. Abigail recognized them but couldn’t recall their names.
They stood on the second floor, clearly viewing the surgical process. Nearby, a live broadcast allowed them to observe the surgery’s details.
After settling in her seat, Abigail picked up the patient’s file. It was a 23-year-old boy who had a heart injury after a car accident two years ago. Despite multiple surgeries, his heart began to fail and he couldn’t find a suitable donor, leading to end-stage heart failure. His family sought help from Jeffrey Foster and decided on a total artificial heart transplant.
However, with the current medical technology, there were many flaws with total artificial heart transplants: infection, bleeding, thrombosis, and biological tissue compatibility, all of which affected the surgery’s success rate and post-operative outcomes.
These issues were all related to cardiovascular materials.
Unlike other fields, even minor errors in medicine could lead to mechanical failures, terminating a life.
Therefore, over the years, Jeffrey Foster’s laboratory had been improving biomaterials, researching more effective antibiotics and anticoagulants.
She assisted Jeffrey Foster, aiming to develop future mechanical circulatory assist devices towards minimally invasive implantation, making the total artificial heart more stable and affordable, thereby helping more people.
All these years, she always thought she and her senior shared the same values and life direction. However, reborn, she discovered too many things. Now, seeing Jeffrey Foster in surgical attire, seriously inspecting the equipment, she felt a bit unfamiliar.
The surgery quickly began.
