Chapter 980

When he thought that he might have to do bone marrow transplantation later, Guo Xiang felt that this method was too backward. The donor would suffer and the efficiency would be lower. He wanted to ask whether there was a hematopoietic stem cell separator.

In fact, bone marrow transplantation is mainly the transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells, but hematopoietic stem cells can not be isolated before, so we can only directly extract bone marrow. With a stem cell separator, as long as the blood on the human body is extracted, the hematopoietic stem cells are separated and input into the donor through the stem cell separator.

The blood isolated from stem cells can also be transfused back to the original donor's body, which will have less impact on the donor's body.

Guo Xiang inquired around and asked President Lin of Beijing Medical University. He learned that a company that makes medical devices really has this kind of machine, which is still imported.

If you ask, it will cost 300000.

But it's okay. It's not just this time. It can be used in the future. Such as leukemia can be used.

Guo Xiang immediately contacted the company to order, let them deliver goods to the door, and then install and debug. In addition to part of the final payment, most of the payment was settled first to avoid any problems.

Of course, even if there is a problem, people will guarantee it, and people don't do a hammer deal.

On the contrary, they know that Guo Xiang's hospital has strength, and they also give preferential treatment. If they need other machines in the future, they can give priority to the supply.

Guo Xiang is also happy. In this way, he doesn't have to go abroad to buy. A series of procedures such as import customs declaration will take a lot of time and energy. It's better to buy ready-made ones.

After several days of physical examination and matching test, all the examination reports were handed over to Guo Xiang.

"Sister in law, how about it? Can you cure it?" Guo Er asked Guo Xiang.

Guo Xiang nodded while reading the report. "This thalassemia is also called globin dysgenesis anemia. It is a group of hereditary hemolytic anemia diseases."

"Anemia or pathological state caused by the lack or deficiency of one or more globin chains in hemoglobin due to genetic defects."

"Sporadic cases are common in Guangdong, western Guangdong and Sichuan provinces in China. Sporadic cases are found in provinces and regions south of the Yangtze River and less in the north. That's why so many people get the disease there. "

"It is generally divided into light type, intermediate type and heavy type. Light type generally has no symptoms and does not affect daily life. Take some medicine at most. Intermediate type moderate anemia can generally live to adulthood, and heavy type is easy to die early."

"Moreover, severe cases have obvious characteristics, such as anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, dysplasia, large head, wide eye distance, forehead process, easy fracture and so on..."

"No wonder I said that Tong Tong and that Tong look a little alike, and they are not very good-looking. It is because they are all seriously ill that they grow like that?" Guo'er said.

Guo Xiang nodded, "so it's still easy to distinguish. The basic effect of heavy medicine is not great. Blood transfusion can be used, but it is also a palliative rather than a permanent cure. The main thing is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which is what we usually call bone marrow transplantation."

"Is the city so small that it can be transplanted to children?" Asked Guo er.

"Yes, they are brothers and sisters, and their blood types are the same. In fact, it is just the umbilical cord blood of the newborn fetus, but most people don't know and won't save umbilical cord blood. If some people have leukemia children and can't find a match, they deliberately conceive one child in order to save another child... "

"So it can be?" Guo'er nodded. She studied traditional Chinese medicine, so her knowledge is still very limited.

"So the city and Tong Tong are matched successfully?" Asked Guo er.

"Yes, they have done it before, but even if it costs a lot of money, they can't afford it." Guo Xiang sighed, so it is necessary to set up this fund by himself, which can help at least some people.

"Can we start?" Asked Guo er.

"It's not that fast. It takes four days to mobilize the city. You go and call their father. " Guo Xiang said.

After the child stayed, Qin Shaosheng said that he would volunteer to help the hospital do something. Guo Xiang asked him to do cleaning and nursing work. Of course, he would be paid at that time. His family was so difficult that it was not easy to take two children.

Guo'er called Qin Shaosheng. Qin Shaosheng was doing hygiene. He took off his gloves and was a little stiff. "Dean Guo, you want me?"

Guo Xiang nodded, "sit down and I'll tell you about the child."

"The inspection has been completed. The matching types of the two children are indeed consistent. We will start to give mobilization to the children tomorrow." Guo Xiang said.

"What is mobilization agent?" Qin Shaosheng asked.

"Mobilization agent is to fight in the city's body. Transplantation is mainly to transplant hematopoietic stem cells. This hematopoietic stem cell is transplanted into Tong Tong's body and grows well on her. In the future, it will make blood by itself and the body will get better."

"But the hematopoietic stem cells in the human body are also limited. If the hematopoietic stem cells in the urban body are taken out to the child, he will be less. Of course, his body is still growing, but in order to get more, we need to use mobilization agents. "

"This mobilization agent is a factor for the growth of hematopoietic stem cells, which is to enable the stem cells in the body to proliferate and differentiate rapidly, so as to increase the number of stem cells in the bone marrow, and then the stem cells will be released into the blood, so there is no need to extract the bone marrow and separate the stem cells in the blood."

Qin Shaosheng nodded. It turned out to be so.

"The mobilization agent needs to be played for four days. It will start tomorrow. After playing, the child may be a little uncomfortable, such as backache and bone pain. After all, it is artificial to make it grow rapidly or a little uncomfortable, so you can give the child a hot compress when you have time so that he won't feel so uncomfortable." Guo Xiang said.

"OK, thank you, President Guo." Qin Shaosheng nodded. Dean Guo was too considerate of the children.

"However, mobilization agents will also increase the number of white blood cells. At that time, children may have symptoms of dizziness, nausea and vomiting, which is normal. If there is rash and fever, we should tell us in time. It may be allergy and anti allergy treatment should be done." Guo Xiang said.

"OK, I remember." Qin Shaosheng nodded.

The next morning, the nurse came to give the first injection of mobilization agent. The needle tube was a little thick. Cheng's eyebrows frowned and stopped moving.

Tong Tong was distressed, "brother, does it hurt? I'll shout for you! "

Then he pouted and blew gently on Cheng Cheng's arm.

"Sister, it doesn't hurt." The city whispered.

"Cheng Cheng is so brave!" It hurts to see the child so sensible.

"A second shot will be given in eight hours." The nurse said, that is, one more injection in the afternoon.

After the second injection in the afternoon, Chengcheng felt a little sour in his waist.

Qin Shaosheng hurriedly went to fetch hot water and brought a towel to the child for hot compress. Tong Tong has always been by his brother's side.

The next day, the third and fourth injections were given. Chengcheng obviously felt that his waist was very uncomfortable and was very sore. After all, he was a child and still called for pain.

Qin Shaosheng hurried to give the child a massage, which was useless.

"It will also be useful to continue hot compress and give the child a hot bath." Guo Xiang said.

Cheng Cheng is still so young. It's not easy for his sister.
