thoracic operation

It's possible. Some cartoonists create funny takes on various medical procedures, including thoracic surgery involving lungs. But it might not be very common.

One inspiring story is of a patient who was told she might never fully use her arm again due to severe thoracic outlet syndrome. But with months of dedicated physical therapy and the use of braces to correct her posture, she regained full functionality. It was a long journey but her determination paid off.

The drug treatment in the Department of Thoracic Surgery differed according to the disease. 1. ** Lung cancer treatment drug ** - ** Target therapy drugs **: The first generation included gefitini, erlotini, icotini, etc.; the second generation included afatini and dacomitini; and the third generation included osimertinib. The side effects of targeted drugs were smaller than that of chemotherapy, and sometimes the efficacy was better than that of chemotherapy. - ** Immune therapy drugs **: Immune therapy can be an option for lung cancer patients who develop drug resistance. Immune checkpoint inhibition was the main direction, and the most representative ones were PD-L1/PD-L1 and CTLA - 4. For example, in the United States, the 5-year survival rate of patients with advanced lung cancer increased from less than 5% to 16%. - ** Chemotherapy drugs **: It is also used in the treatment of lung cancer. The side effects of current chemotherapy drugs have been improved, and most patients can tolerate it. 2. ** Internal Medicine Treatment for Stable Angina ** - ** Anti-Platelet Drug ** - ** Aspirin **: It can suppress the accumulation of plaque on the plaque and prevent the formation of blood clot. At the same time, it can also suppress the formation of TXA2 and suppress the spasm caused by TXA2. A small dose of 75 - 150 milligrams can be used for patients with stable angina-pectori, but there are adverse reactions such as digestive tract reactions and rarely seen cerebral hemorrhage (the occurrence rate is 0.1%/year under the above dose). - ** AAD-body antagonist **: For example, ticlopidine or clopicgrel, the first dose is 300 milligrams, followed by 75 milligrams per day. It suppresses the activity of calcium ions in the blood plaque through AAD-body and suppresses the formation of Fibrinogen between the blood plaque. When combined with Aspirin, it can enhance the efficacy, but it tends to be used for a short period of time. Clogrel can be used in patients who cannot tolerate or are allergic to Aspirin. - ** Heparin or Low Molecules Heparin **: Heparin is one of the most effective anti-hemostatic drugs. Low-molecular-weight Heparin was superior to intravenous ungraded Heparin in reducing the incidence of acute myocardiac arrest in patients with unstable Angina, but it was not recommended as an anti-Platelet drug for patients with stable Angina. - ** Anti-anginal drugs **: Beta body blockade drugs are the first choice for patients with stable anginal pain. By blocking the effect of sympathomimetics, on one hand, it weakens cardiac contractile force and lowers blood pressure to reduce the oxygen consumption of the heart muscle; on the other hand, it can slow down the heart rate, increase the time of relaxation of the heart, increase the time of blood supply to the heart muscle, and prevent sudden cardiac death. When using it, it should start with a small dose and gradually increase the dose so that the heart rate can be maintained at 55 - 60/min when it is quiet, and the severe heartache can be reduced to 50/min. 3. ** Drug therapy after stent placement for acute myocardiac arrest **: Long-term standard drug therapy is required. If long-term drug therapy is not standardized, acute myocardiac arrest may occur again. 4. ** Heart failure treatment drugs (such as heart failure caused by decreased cardiac contractile force due to organic heart disease)**: Dobutamine can be used. Its positive inotropism is stronger than that of Dopamine. It can increase cardiac contractile force and cardiac output, but rarely increases cardiac oxygen consumption. It can reduce peripheral blood vessel resistance, reduce the filling pressure of the heart chamber, and promote A-V node transmission. However, there are some conditions that need to be paid attention to when using it. For example, when you are in the middle of the heart, you should first give digoxin drugs. 5. ** Shock treatment drugs (such as toxic shock, cardiogenic shock, etc.)**: - ** Dopamine **: Small dose (<5 ug/kg) relaxes blood vessels and increases urine output; medium dose (>5 ug/kg <10 ug/kg) increases stroke volume, heart rate acceleration, increase in Systole Blood Pressure and Pulse Pressure, and no change or slight increase in Diastolic Blood Pressure; large dose (>10 ug/kg) constricts blood vessels, reduces kidney blood flow and urine output, and increases Systole Blood Pressure and Diastolic Blood Pressure. Before use, the patient must correct the low blood volume. Dilute it before drip. Choose a large vein to inject or drip. Monitor blood pressure, cardiac output, electrocardiogram, urine volume, etc. during drip. Slow down the drip speed when correcting shock. If the blood pressure continues to drop or the dosage is adjusted, the patient should stop using it. When stopping, the drip speed should be gradually reduced. - ** Sodiprusside **: It is a fast-acting and short-acting vasodilator. It is used for emergency blood pressure reduction in patients with high blood pressure (such as hyperbaric crisis, hyperbaric cerebral disease, etc.). It is also used for controlled blood pressure reduction during surgical anesthesia. It is also used for acute heart failure (including acute lung edema), acute myocardiac obstruction, or incomplete valve closure. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
