Chapter 339 Artificial Organs
While Umbrella is bargain-hunting for some high-quality related assets of Mitsubishi and Kawasaki, it has also been taking the initiative to stir up controversy in public opinion by giving up drug patents.
I even gave up a business worth tens of billions of dollars and just made it public. Everyone should express their opinions.
But in response, all aspects started to pressurize and wash like crazy.
The spokesperson of Dameili slapped himself in the face, saying that Dameili respects the market economy and will not interfere excessively.
But he was slapped in the face by Umbrella's resubmitted application for chip unblocking.
In the past, there would still be hype saying that Umbrella was in a panic and couldn't hold on any longer.
But now Umbrella is producing its own chips, and major wafer factories have also stated that Umbrella's photolithography machines are more efficient, which is more like a mockery at this time.
But it happened that Da Meili wanted to protect her own face and couldn't get rid of it right away, so she just wasted it.
It just starts to shift the bigger focus.
The filming of "Starry Sky World" and "Starry Sky 2", as well as the application prospects of smart bracelets, etc., are among the purposes of the transfer.
Well, inexplicably, the recent hot spots are all related to Wang Yi...
……
In the luxuriously decorated special plane, Wang Yi was lying on the bed, enjoying the massage from the beautiful flight attendant, while listening to Lin Shiqin’s report on the headphones
"Boss, the approval for artificial organs has been approved."
Wang Yi snorted to continue, and Lin Shiqin continued
"Originally, it was stuck for a while and we wanted to pinch it, but the previous boss's operation made them unbearable. He quickly released it and let us pass. It seemed that he wanted us to stop making troubles over the disclosure of medical patents."
Lin Shiqin's voice was filled with schadenfreude.
At present, Umbrella has produced two types of artificial organs by relying on high-precision instruments, the design of Wang Yi and the R&D team, and Lin Shiqin's simulation control.
One is an artificial heart, and the other is an artificial kidney!
In fact, these two organs, or corresponding instruments, have already been released.
Extracorporeal ECMO can even directly replace cardiopulmonary function, and dialysis machines can also extend the lives of patients with renal failure.
It can be said that cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and renal diseases have an extremely important impact on direct human death.
Many patients with other illnesses may die from multiple organ failure in the end.
Not to mention the heart, the main cause of sudden death, there are too many cases of cardiovascular death, so many that it can be said that everyone has experienced it.
Because the myocardium is highly differentiated, current treatments for the heart usually involve a combination of drugs and surgery.
And usually once you take the medication, it's almost lifelong.
Interventional treatments such as cardiac bypass and cardiac stent also have a large number of people.
But no matter which method is used, in theory, it is to extend the life of the patient as much as possible. The reason why there are so few heart replacement surgeries is because of various comprehensive issues such as the difficulty of the surgery, the effectiveness of the surgery, and the matching heart source.
Similarly, there are 850 million kidney disease patients worldwide!
One in every ten people.
However, because of the strong compensatory function of the kidneys, there is usually no manifestation or reaction in the early stages, which seems normal. However, once obvious symptoms begin to appear, it is usually too late.
Similarly, kidney damage can almost be considered difficult to reverse, and most of the time it will slowly worsen.
If you take good care of yourself and have good habits, you may not feel it for life, but if it is stimulated by living habits, dietary rules and drugs, you may directly reach the stage of renal failure or even uremia within a year.
Therefore, he needs to rely on dialysis to continue to live, waiting for a matching kidney source.
Although organ transplantation can extend the patient's life, lifelong medication has some subsequent problems, resulting in the effect of this kind of solid organ transplantation being far less than that of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Many patients gritted their teeth and spent money to complete organ transplants, but later they were unable to afford the ongoing medication costs, leading to rejection of the transplanted organs and even systemic problems.
It can be said that these patients are a silent group that receives little attention in daily life, but they are a very difficult group.
Wang Yi originally wanted to complete the repair of cardiomyocytes through the mechanism of stem cell cultivation and repair, combined with the magic culture medium.
After all, your own innate organs are the best.
But in the end, I discovered the difficulty of this. It’s not that it can’t be done, but that it takes too much time and energy. If it does come out, it can only serve a very small number of wealthy people, and it is impossible to popularize it.
Therefore, after he completed the strengthening of his own heart, he did not go further and turned to the direction of artificial organs.
Combining many principles of current artificial organs, as well as some mechanisms of the human body itself, a compromise implantable compensatory artificial organ was finally adopted!
For ordinary patients, the two organs can be accessed through the blood vessels and ureters of the wrist with a thoracoscope and laparoscope, and then the compressed artificial organ itself can be released and finally expanded.
Both organs are specially made into a 'mesh' structure, relying on the memory properties of the Ag-Ni-Ti alloy to 'recover' after reaching the target, and then start functioning.
The motor is miniaturized, the battery is made "long", and a dual-battery mode is adopted.
A metal patch will be connected to the chest and abdomen respectively, and relying on the large capacity of the battery, just make sure to charge it regularly.
Reduce the impact on life as much as possible.
Because of the magic structure of silver, it can also form a hydrophobic coating, which greatly reduces the body's reaction to implanted organs.
Moreover, this type of artificial organ is divided into components, such as separate heart valve components, glomerular components, etc., for various patients with different severity of conditions.
And because of the memory characteristics of Ag-Ni-Ti metal, if any situation or failure does occur, it can be recycled through the original route.
The super wear resistance caused by the alloy magic can also greatly extend the service life and break through the current difficulties.
The theoretical service life even exceeds that of a normal heart!
This is absolutely amazing in the field of materials. Just using this material on other special instruments can be said to be a pioneering innovation.
It can be said that this is one of the answers provided by Umbrella as it continues to swallow up high-end machine tools and various instruments!
With the help of the current clamor to release the patent, and the cooperation with the original friends of Purdue Pharma, they finally succeeded in passing various tests even though they were initially hostile to Umbrella.
What was passed simultaneously also had domestic approval!
However, unlike in vitro hematopoietic stem cell culture based on the mature autologous stem cell transplantation technique, this is a completely new type of surgery, so it cannot be rolled out quickly and needs to be done slowly.
Fortunately, surgeries such as cardiac stents, laparoscopy and ureteroscopy are still relatively mature technologies, so the problem of stable promotion is not a big one...
Just listening to this news, Wang Yi's plane successfully arrived at Xiangjiang Airport.
The entire flight is just a massage, and I have to say that the massage hands of these two beautiful flight attendants are very strong.
And because Liu Xiaoke was already a well-known star, she might have some trouble coming to a place where paparazzi was prevalent, so she went directly to the crew to report on the filming, leaving only Qian Yayan to follow.
Qian Yayan had been here last time, so she was familiar with the place.
Compared with last time, the status of World Corporation today is completely different. It can be said that the entire Li Group will now be eclipsed in front of World Corporation.
Qian Yayan, who was able to influence everything in companies around the world, now set foot in Hong Kong again. She saw Li Hao, the eldest son of the Li family, and his wife who came to pick them up in person, and her mentality had completely changed.
The last time she came, Qian Yayan felt that Wang Yi was very powerful and could attract the attention of the Li Group. This time, she felt that the Li Group was pretty good and understood etiquette.
This is what she is pursuing. She feels so good now that she can't help but tighten her arms around Wang Yi...
