Saving the Lives of Thousands of Patients, Shanghai's Good Doctor: With Innovation and Dedication, Patients | Surgery | Shanghai
Today, the 2023 "Shanghai Good Doctors" search and selection, sponsored by the Municipal Health Commission and the Municipal Health System Spiritual Civilization Construction Committee, and co sponsored by the Liberation Daily and the Shanghai Shangyi Medical Workers Award Foundation, has been officially announced. They are outstanding among the 88900 physicians in the city, always adhering to the clinical front line, serving patients with care and dedication, improving scientific research technology, exploring model reforms, and contributing to the construction of the Asian Medical Center in Shanghai.
They are highly skilled "goddess doctors"
In the eyes of the patient, Wang Chen is a superhero who can solve any problem. This beautiful female professor from the Department of Colorectal Surgery at Longhua Hospital has a bold and capable style of action. She uses her superb skills to solve countless patients' unspeakable problems, providing solutions for difficult and complicated patients in many parts of the country. She has also fought against necrotizing fasciitis multiple times in late night operating rooms, snatching lives from the hands of death.
Complex anal fistula is more difficult for patients than death. How to use the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to find a breakthrough? Wang Chen inherits the essence of Gu's surgery and continuously innovates. Based on Professor Lu Jingen's "tunnel style suture technique", he integrates techniques such as suture padding, tube negative suction, anal fistula endoscopy, and laser closure to form Gu's unique traditional Chinese medicine external treatment comprehensive therapy, saving countless patients.
She always believed that "even if it's a little convenient for patients, our efforts are worth it." Based on this understanding, she not only delved into technology, but also led the team to continuously optimize various processes, shorten waiting time, facilitate follow-up and follow-up, and ultimately exchanged sweat for patient smiles. Now, Wang Chen has taken the lead in formulating three national and Shanghai guidelines, consensus, and norms. The century old inheritance of Gu's surgery has also collided with artificial intelligence to create dazzling sparks. The digital wound collection and management system, the Xiaokang Traditional Chinese Medicine Four Diagnosis Assistant, and the database management of anal fistula specialty will perfectly combine precision and minimally invasive techniques, shining with the brilliance of traditional Chinese medicine renewal.
Tuberculosis, an ancient but not far away respiratory infectious disease, has cast a shadow on many patients and families. For more than 20 years, Sha Wei, director of the Tuberculosis Department of Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, has stuck to the forefront of tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment, not afraid of risks, solved problems for many patients at home and abroad, cured tens of thousands of difficult, severe and drug-resistant tuberculosis patients, and helped them return to society. She is patient, enthusiastic, and meticulous, often making correct judgments from various clues and providing effective treatment. She is affectionately known as the "Sand Goddess" by patients.
As the leader of tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment expert group in Shanghai, and the director of tuberculosis clinical medical research center, she led the diagnosis and treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis in the city, and actively made scientific research and innovation, making tuberculosis epidemic control level in the city leading in the country; As a disease control consulting expert of the National Health Commission, I have compiled guidelines and provided suggestions for tuberculosis prevention and control strategies in China; As a member of the core group of the World Health Organization's Global Drug resistant tuberculosis Initiative, she has pushed the Chinese program to the world. While rooted in clinical practice, she has obtained 6 patents and insists on conducting public welfare activities such as free consultations and training in western and high-altitude areas every year, delivering patients to their homes.
They are the "climbers" who bravely venture into the peak of scientific research
"Many patients regard our place as their last hope, and we must shoulder this trust." Professor Yu Xianjun, the director of the Cancer Hospital, said that 13 years ago, when the department was just established, there were only 3 people and 7 beds. Now, the department has developed into the largest pancreatic tumor diagnosis and treatment center in Asia with 150 beds, 32 doctors, and an annual diagnosis and treatment volume of 50000 people. Behind these achievements is his deep cultivation from 8am to 12pm, which has helped alleviate the pain of over 3000 pancreatic cancer patients over the past decade.
The longer clinical work lasts, the more Yu Xianjun understands the importance of translational research. In order to improve surgical safety, he was inspired by the "mortise and tenon structure" and invented the "papillary stump closure type" pancreaticointestinal anastomosis, greatly reducing the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula and perioperative mortality. He innovated the pancreatic sharp lymph node dissection technology and invented five new devices for pancreatic surgery, which shortened the lymph node dissection time by 50% and reduced the local recurrence rate of pancreatic cancer by 30%. A series of innovations have extended the median survival period of the "king of cancer" pancreatic cancer by 40%, and the average medical cost of tumor hospitals has decreased by 10000 yuan compared with the average level in Shanghai. Now, according to the summary results of the Cancer Hospital, we have taken the lead in writing the Comprehensive Diagnosis and Treatment Guide for pancreatic cancer in China, and the "Shanghai Plan" for pancreatic cancer has been formed.
"Being the most cost-effective dental implant, minimizing patient pain, and reducing treatment costs." This is the unwavering wish of Lai Hongchang, director of the Dental Implant Department at the Ninth People's Hospital, who has been practicing medicine for more than 30 years. As an important promoter of the development of dental implant diagnosis and treatment in Shanghai and even across the country, he was the first to propose the theory of "effective bone fusion" internationally, and pioneered the establishment of a minimally invasive implant surgery model to help patients with alveolar bone atrophy recover their chewing function comfortably and efficiently. This surgical procedure significantly reduces postoperative pain scores and lowers treatment costs for patients. In addition, Lai Hongchang also took the lead in establishing a biological sample library for diseases around implants, constructing an early diagnostic system, and striving to provide patients with long-term stable and effective implant restoration.
Nowadays, Lai Hongchang has personally treated tens of thousands of patients, providing full mouth implant restoration for over a thousand elderly edentulous patients who have been seeking medical treatment. This not only restores chewing function, but also helps them regain confidence and smile. "Relying solely on my own strength is not enough. I hope different regions across the country can develop specialized dental implants." This year, he also promoted the development of the world's first internationally unified set of clinical evaluation indicators for dental implants, which is of milestone significance for carrying out standardized clinical diagnosis, treatment, and research on dental implants.
They are "experimenters" exploring healthcare reform
"June 24th, 2010, was the day Chongming came." Qin Li, the director of the Endocrinology Department at Chongming Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Health Medical College, still remembers clearly that he stayed that night, started working the next day, and has been rooted in the island for 13 years since then. As an expert dispatched by Xinhua Hospital to assist Chongming, Qin Li led his team to establish the first national standardized metabolic disease management center in Chongming District, the MMC grassroots management model of 1+X in Chongming District, and the first thyroid disease diagnosis and treatment center in Chongming District, playing a demonstrative and leading role in the construction of the Xinhua Chongming regional medical consortium.
To prevent major illnesses from leaving the island, Qin Li has successively opened specialized clinics for thyroid and gestational endocrine diseases, as well as thyroid MDT joint clinics, successfully diagnosing and treating multiple rare and difficult endocrine diseases. The first thyroid disease diagnosis and treatment center in Chongming District, led by her, has also formed a major feature of hospital specific disease diagnosis and treatment.
In 2011 and 2014, she completed the epidemiological and risk factors investigation and research on chronic metabolic diseases of 10000 people led by Academician Ning Guang in Chongming and the follow-up work three years later, which provided effective data for the collection of baseline data in the construction of the medical consortium, and also provided valuable basis for the prevention and control strategies of chronic diseases such as diabetes in Chongming.
The previous aortic arch surgery was a blank slate, with the lives of patients with acute aortic dissection hanging on the line. The surgery was described as a "fierce battle, night battle, bloody battle, and death battle". Professor Sun Lizhong, the medical director of Shanghai Deda Hospital, has successfully changed the surgical method and artificial blood vessel materials for aortic dissection, greatly reducing the incidence of secondary or multiple surgeries and surgical costs. He has created the "Sun's surgery" for 20 years, greatly saving medical insurance expenses and benefiting both the country and patients.
As a medical expert, Sun Lizhong also explores reforms in the medical model. He drew inspiration from the operation model of public hospitals and promoted greater medical technology space in non-public hospitals: Deda Hospital adopts a new hospital management model, focuses on the construction of technical team talents, improves technical level, from early handover and difficult case discussion to the development of new technologies and projects, all of which are beneficial for patients to fully devote themselves. Deda Hospital has established a "green channel for life" for emergency treatment of the heart and large blood vessels. Data shows that for patients with acute aortic dissection, the time from arrival at the hospital to the operating room does not exceed 1.5 hours, and the success rate of surgery is 96%. Last year, the hospital applied for certification from the China Chest Pain Center, and for the first time proposed using cases of acute aortic dissection as the scope of national level chest pain center certification, which was adopted, filling the gap in certification in the field of extracardiac care in China.
