Under such circumstances, since a blood disease is suspected, it is normal for family members to bring the child over to seek medical treatment.
"When I was in Beidou Wu, I was not diagnosed immediately, and it was delayed for about two weeks. Because the child's initial symptoms were only fever and no bleeding. The doctor did not suspect a blood disease."
¡°You need to do a blood routine if you have a fever, right?¡± After hearing this, several students were suspicious of what was wrong with this.
"Parents, please pamper your children. I heard that they had to draw blood or something, but the child was scared and would not cooperate and refused to do it. So I didn't do a routine blood test and was given antipyretics to take at home. I just suspected it was a small cold."
¡°In this way, wouldn¡¯t this family member be the kind of person who doesn¡¯t like to cooperate with the doctor from beginning to end?¡± asked classmate Wei Shangquan.
"Yes." The two internal medicine classmates nodded, "I just said in the morning that I would draw blood for a new test here, but the parents kept yelling and didn't want to draw blood for this child."
¡°It¡¯s more difficult for children to take blood tests repeatedly,¡± said classmate Pan Shihua.
Adults can¡¯t bear the repeated blood draws, let alone children. The parents¡¯ feelings are understandable. The problem is that if the family members do not cooperate, it will be difficult for medical staff to provide further treatment to the child.
When will the technology that makes drawing blood painless be invented? I thought that the bone puncture in the afternoon would be much more painful than blood drawing. Several surgical students were a little worried about their internal medicine students, fearing that their families would die if they heard their children crying.
¡°The family members didn¡¯t know where they heard it from, and they have been asking all day long whether they need to find someone for a bone marrow transplant.¡±
Nowadays, the news likes to use sensational things to make news reports to attract attention. Bone marrow transplantation itself involves medical ethics issues, which can easily arouse widespread discussion in society. It is more likely to attract the attention of others than discussing chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Some family members have read too much news and think that bone marrow transplantation is a life-saving miracle drug for leukemia. When they know that their family member is sick, they immediately chase the doctor and ask about it.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Actually definitely not. As mentioned before, doctors must start with the most effective treatment plan when choosing a treatment plan. The life-saving drug for leukemia is always chemotherapy first. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is more common in pediatrics, and with years of clinical experience accumulated, a very effective chemotherapy regimen has been formed. If discovered and treated early, the five-year survival rate can reach a gratifying rate of over 80 to 90 percent.
Bone marrow transplantation is only used for relapse and is not the first choice of treatment when doctors find this disease. Moreover, bone marrow transplantation is really not a magic medicine. Relapse will also occur after bone marrow transplantation. It is a desperate choice after other clinical treatment options are ineffective.
"Layers don't know much about medicine, and the media loves to create news. They only use donors who can trigger social discussions to create topics. This really makes scientific people very unhappy.
Anyone who knows something about medicine knows that medical donation must be done on a voluntary basis. Why? Medicine is science, and I don¡¯t know how many of the new scientific medical results released every year will overturn some of the previous research results. It can only be said that the things that have been researched can be used at present. You want to say that I can guarantee that today's research results will always be correct, but no one dares. Human beings' understanding of the world is constantly deepening. This is the simplest truth.
Under this premise, there are definitely gains and losses in treating the disease. Some patients are not willing to sacrifice other things about themselves in order to save their own lives.
