Original title: the story of the Chinese
4hw.com.cn this is an ordinary morning. The news of doctor Zhou Nan's death suddenly appeared on the microblog hot search. In a short time, countless candles were lit on the social platform, and tens of thousands of netizens sent off & hellip; & hellip;
Who is Zhou Nan? What did she do? Why did her death affect the hearts of countless people? Today, let's get closer to Zhou Nan, who is "China's good doctor" and "the most beautiful doctor in the country", and feel her sincerity and responsibility in white clothes.
'if I'm in Tibet, I can save more lives.'
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I can't believe that the medical conditions in many parts of Tibet are so poor that pneumonia and gastroenteritis may have killed the local people. '
In 2007, Zhou Nan traveled to Tibet. In Kejia village, Pulan County, southern Ali Prefecture, Tibet, she met an old man suffering from pneumonia. She was dying, but she didn't know how to use the medicine. After understanding the situation, Zhou Nan quickly made a diagnosis for him, and bought the right medicine at the local drugstore, so that he could turn the corner.
Zhou Nan was deeply hurt by the lack of local medicine. "Tibet lacks doctors, can you come?" Jiasheng's Chinese aroused thousands of waves in Zhou Nan's heart.
In the spring of 2009, Zhou Nan graduated from Peking Union Medical College Hospital. She made the first choice in her life. She gave up her job in the respiratory department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital and became a doctor in Tibet. After learning about Zhou Nan's decision, both parents and tutors strongly opposed it.
'There are more than 50 Grade-A hospitals in Beijing. There is no big difference between one more doctor and one less doctor. But in Tibet, many lives will be saved because of my existence. 'Zhou Nan has a firm attitude.
In September that year, Zhou Nan, 27, got on the train to Lhasa and became a doctor in the people's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region. From that day on, she devoted all she had learned to relieve the suffering of the plateau people.
'I dare not stop when the living people are in front of me.'
Tibet's natural environment is harsh. The altitude of the people's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region, where Zhou Nan works, is above 3600 meters, and the oxygen content in the air is only about 60% of the sea level. With severe altitude sickness, Zhou Nan insisted on making ward rounds every day. "What if the patient's illness is delayed if he doesn't go to see it for a day?" she didn't dare to slack off!
There are a large number of rheumatic immune patients in Tibet, but there is no rheumatic immune department in Tibet. Some patients who suffer from this disease can only go home to die if they can not be transferred to the mainland for treatment. Seeing this, Zhou Nan was very sad. We have to solve the problem of medical conditions first. We are not doing academic work. We just need to publish an article. I dare not stop when the living people are in front of me. '
In April 2013, a girl named Zhuoma was diagnosed with leukemia, but at that time Tibet did not have the medical conditions to treat the disease, and the relevant departments were blank. Even if Zhou Nan made an accurate judgment, he still did not keep Zhuoma's life. Zhuoma's death strengthened Zhou Nan's determination: to establish the first rheumatic hematology department in Tibet (including the treatment of rheumatic immune diseases and blood diseases), and never let the tragedy repeat itself.
It's much harder to build a new Department than you think. She began to travel between Beijing and Tibet, contacting resources and learning technology. Zhou Nan's idea was approved by her teacher, Zhang Fengchun, Professor of Rheumatology and Immunology Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Zhang Fengchun donated 1 million yuan of immune analyzer, fluorescence microscope and other instruments and reagents to help Zhou Nan establish the laboratory.
In 2014, a department of rheumatic immunology and hematology with complete facilities and diagnosis and treatment technology was established in Tibet, filling the gap in the treatment of rheumatic immunologic diseases in Tibet. After the establishment of the Department of rheumatic immunology and hematology, many of the first successful cases in Tibet have been diagnosed and treated: lupus encephalopathy, alveolar hemorrhage, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, hemophagocytic syndrome, etc.
In this' Young 'department, there are only eight doctors. Zhou Nan, who is under the age of 30, started the department management and served as the deputy director of the Department. No matter how much you say, it's better to successfully rescue a patient in clinic. "It's amazing to be able to rescue patients from the brink of death, especially to inspire children's willingness to be good doctors," Zhou said. '
'if I do it again, I'll still choose.'
With a passion, Zhou Nan has been in Tibet for nine years. Her figure is all over Nagqu, Dangxiong, Shannan and other remote areas, and she has snatched the lives of many patients with lupus encephalopathy and vasculitis from the God of death.
Once, a 24-year-old male patient was admitted to Zhounan department due to arthritis. He suddenly fell into coma that night and was diagnosed as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) through a series of auxiliary examinations. TTP is a kind of critical illness in clinic. The mortality rate is as high as 50% even if there is plasma exchange support in the top three hospitals in the mainland. Moreover, Tibet has no conditions for plasma exchange, so patients' life is on the line.
Zhou Nan and his team didn't give up. After unremitting efforts, the patient finally woke up and recovered very well. Finally, he was completely relieved and discharged. In 2017, Zhou Nan was rated as the "most beautiful doctor" in China. The patient sent a circle of friends: "all the thanks are beyond words. Today, she won the prize. She deserves it!"
In the past nine years, Zhou Nan and her team have received more than 60000 patients. She also took advantage of the weekend to travel around 400 square kilometers to deliver free medicine to herdsmen, so that the seriously ill plateau people can see the hope of life.
'There are many choices in life, but if I do it again, I will still choose it. She once told a reporter about her 9-year career as a doctor on the snowy plateau. However, on August 2, 2019, Zhou Nan died at the age of 37 due to an accident in his vehicle.
How can one live a long and short life? Mao Zedong once said in "in memory of Bethune": "Comrade Bethune's spirit of being selfless and dedicated to others is reflected in his extreme responsibility for his work and his extreme enthusiasm for his comrades and the people. "Respect and protect life, Zhou Nan and 11.749 million health workers in China.
The man is dead, but the candle of spirit never goes out. Doctor Zhou Nan, have a good trip!
