Chapter 559 If you don’t eat the toast, you will be fined with wine
At this time, professors and doctors from all departments of the First Affiliated Spine Surgery Center of Nandu gathered together.
As a clinical trial cooperation unit for spinal external fixation, they are also one of the experimental centers.
Experimental data from Sanbo Hospital have been transmitted, and case data are projected on a huge screen. Professor Zou, as the director of the center, sits in the front row.
A series of X-rays, two weeks, four weeks, six weeks, eight weeks, 10 weeks, and 12 weeks after surgery, all displayed on the screen, forming a sharp contrast.
In every case, no matter how severe the scoliosis was before, the last X-ray must be a close to normal anteroposterior and lateral image of the spine.
The attached spine surgery department is one of the four major centers in the country.
Xiehe, 301, Gulou, and Nandu Affiliated One are the first-line hospitals for scoliosis treatment, and all other hospitals automatically take a step back.
There are more than a dozen chief physicians and doctoral supervisors. This is where Professor Su started.
Professor Su entered the venue, and everyone stood up. Professor Su made a gesture, and everyone sat down again.
The chief position was reserved for Professor Su. Professor Su took his seat. Professor Zou next to him immediately introduced: "Professor Yang Ping's treatment at Sanbo Hospital has arrived. You see, the effect of the orthopedic surgery is a bit shocking. I watched it several times. I haven’t come back to my senses now.”
Professor Su just hummed and watched the X-movie seriously.
The external fixator for the spine was introduced into the Nandu Affiliated Hospital for clinical trials. Half of the reasons were selfish. He was not sure about the effect.
After all, this technology is very difficult. Even if it is developed, it is still unknown to enter clinical practice without several generations of technological changes.
At this time, it is reasonable to support your own family selfishly. If you don't support it, others will not support it.
Young people are also trying their best. In just a few months, the data they produced are so amazing that even Professor Su was surprised.
From the establishment of the topic to the successful clinical trial, it took only a few months, which is too fast.
"Stop!" Professor Su pointed to a picture.
The doctor in charge of controlling the computer reacted very quickly, and the X-ray film that automatically played slowly stopped immediately.
The deformity with a Cobb angle of 176 degrees was successfully corrected in three months. The function of each segment was preserved and no one was fused.
Professor Zou served as the commentator: "From a three-dimensional perspective, the concave side of the curve was pulled apart, and the axial rotation was corrected. During the gradual correction, the tolerance of the spinal cord was expanded, so no neurological symptoms occurred in any case. ”
The screen image switches immediately, using animation to demonstrate the orthopedic process, and the curved spine is gradually corrected.
"Whose student is this young man? It seems that he is the winner of the Golden Knife Award, right?"
A professor looked through the information in his hand and said, of course, he did not know that Yang Ping was the future son-in-law of his dean.
"That's him. The Golden Knife Award broadcast live broadcast of a folding man's spinal orthopedic surgery. It's pretty crazy."
Another professor responded.
"Han Jiangong's student is currently studying for a Ph.D."
"Han Jiangong has such a good student? Lao Zou, why don't you recruit him?"
"Only one case of pinhole infection, mild, well, well controlled safety."
"The idea of spreading the orthopedics to each responsible vertebra is very correct."
The atmosphere of the meeting was very relaxed, with everyone familiar with the information and chatting at the same time.
They had never thought before that scoliosis correction could be corrected using Ilizarov's theory.
In their concept, although surgical methods are constantly being upgraded, they are nothing more than improvements in osteotomy and upgrading of internal fixation instruments with pedicle screws as the core. The central idea is still to use osteotomy and fusion correction.
Using external fixators for progressive correction directly subverts the concept of spinal correction.
These professors often go to North America and Europe for meetings because they have not heard of the team studying this technology.
"We have cooperated with Sanbo Hospital and are one of the clinical trial centers. Now we need to select some cases and carry out similar surgeries on the basis of informed consent. Today we have gathered everyone together to familiarize themselves with this new technology in advance. Professor Zou said loudly.
"It is best to ask Professor Yang to do the first case. After all, it is his own technology. I heard that he is an associate professor employed by our Nandu Medical University."
Professor Zeng, chief physician and doctoral supervisor, is a little unconvinced by this new technology.
It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and run around.
Whether it would work or not, I had to make a few of them. After a month or two, he was convinced.
"If everyone has no doubts about this technology, we are going to enter clinical trials. We need at least thirty cases. The more the better. In this way, I will contribute ten patients first." Professor Zou raised his hand.
"It just so happens that I have five patients on hand. Can I invite him to try?"
Professor Zeng wanted to see how this new technology of Professor Yang was doing.
"I also have six patients here, and I also want to see if this thing works. The cases I just watched on the PPT demonstration were all good."
Another professor contributed several patients.
"Everyone actively participates, and we must support this kind of young talents."
Professor Su has not spoken. General spine surgery meetings are chaired by Professor Zou. He will say a few words at critical moments.
"Ten on my side!"
Professor Wang stood up. "That Xiaohui, let's add two more." Professor Zou suddenly felt that he was lagging behind, so he immediately added two more cases and asked his doctors to prepare.
"Old Zou, are you competing with me?"
Professor Wang is also a psychic person. Yang Ping came to Affiliated One for surgery. He remembered this, so he had a vague feeling that Yang Ping's identity was not simple.
And Professor Zou is so active in clinical trials in this foreign hospital. Who is Professor Zou? Human spirit!
"I have five more cases here, plus!"
Professor Wang was not to be outdone.
It is not easy for scoliosis patients to take out more than a dozen at once.
Will you follow or not?
Professor Wang waited for Professor Zou to speak.
This is really a bit embarrassing. If you grab the first place, in Professor Su's eyes, you will look vulgar and you will not fight for it, and it will also look like you are not as motivated as that kid.
"We must have this enthusiasm for new technologies. I will add four more."
Professor Zou gritted his teeth.
These reported cases have been evaluated in advance and are predicted to agree to participate in the experiment. Some have already done ideological work in advance. If a case is added temporarily, there is no guarantee that they will agree.
The atmosphere in the entire venue was a bit lively.
Professor Zou is the director of the Spine Center and Professor Wang is the deputy director.
Everyone knows that Professor Zou and Professor Wang are usually very competitive academically.
But now, we have to compete for the number of experimental cases.
"This batch only needs fifty cases, not too many. After all, it is a clinical experiment. Try to control the risk to a minimum." Professor Su stepped forward to calm the comparison between the two.
"Well, let's calculate the number. If it's not enough, the quota will be reserved for the medical team who haven't participated yet. Try to participate as much as possible." Professor Zou seized the upper hand and immediately changed the argument.
For the First Affiliated Hospital of Nandu, it was easy to prepare fifty cases, and the number was quickly filled.
——
Hans already has several pieces of information, all related to spinal external fixators.
The first-phase clinical trial is successful, the second-phase clinical trial will be carried out in Xiehe Hospital, Modu Sixth Hospital, and Nandu Affiliated No. 1, and the third-phase clinical trial is likely to be larger in scale.
Hans has always wanted to get a sample of a spinal external fixator, but has not been able to get it.
So he hurriedly flew to the US headquarters with the information and reported the unfavorable news to the senior management of the headquarters in person.
After careful evaluation, the headquarters gave Hans the instruction to either acquire the company or let it disappear completely.
Hans, who returned to the Magic City, received support from senior officials and took action immediately.
Huang Jiacai's office.
Mr. Hans is having talks with Huang Jiacai.
"Mr. Huang, we have given enough sincerity, 2 billion. Only we can give this price. If you are not satisfied, we will continue to negotiate and find a price that we are satisfied with."
The arrogant Hans didn't understand why this boss with only a high school education was so persistent. Wouldn't it be the best outcome to just take the money and leave?
Hans felt that two billion for this small company was already the highest psychological price. If you still didn't agree, there was really no need to continue the negotiation.
Huang Jiacai shook his head: "Mr. Hans, your purchase price is far from our psychological price. It seems that you still don't understand the value of Ruixing."
"Value? Don't naively think that a product can leverage the market. I don't want to be your enemy. Let's do this. You don't have to worry. Please give me a reply in three days. There is a saying in China: After passing this village, without this store, I I believe Mr. Huang understands this better than me. "Hans is already impatient. This is the last negotiation.
If the negotiations broke down, it meant that he had to adopt the second plan and let Ruixing disappear.
"Is this an ultimatum?" Huang Jiacai was unmoved.
Hans smiled very gentlemanly: "I can tell you straightforwardly, we are determined to win. Have you ever thought about the consequences of rejecting us?"
Hans had ten thousand ways to make Rui Xing disappear.
"Mr. Hans is so confident? We are curious about the consequences of this?"
Huang Jiacai was unceremonious.
As a representative of a giant, Hans had never been so angry before.
Every time a small company is acquired, it is overwhelming, and the other party is grateful for the money.
"Mr. Huang, are you really reckless? Do you know what your behavior is? If you don't drink a toast, you will be fined!"
Huang Jiacai sneered: "Then I will also give you a Chinese saying - ride on the donkey and read the songbook, wait and see, and see the guests off!"
Seeing Hans leave angrily, Huang Jiacai said to the vice president beside him: "Have all the equipment in the warehouse been sterilized?"
"It has been sterilized and can be used clinically at any time." the vice president replied.
The strategic reserves in the warehouse were finally put to use. Without the reserves, Ruixing would not have been able to withstand the pressure of the giants.
The people at Ruixing finally understood why Huang Jiacai spent money to reserve this batch of independent products, just in case.
Even in the most difficult financial times, the distribution of strategic reserves is always the top priority.
