Chapter 68: Investigation and Research
On the other side, Wu Hao, who was guarding his father's ward overnight, naturally witnessed everything that happened.
"It seems that the medication is going as expected, and there haven't been any unexpected incidents. Since that's the case, I can administer it to my father." In reality, Wu Hao's slight concern was completely unnecessary. The reason he prepared two doses of the medication was merely a psychological measure.
However, Wu Hao didn't choose to administer the medication tonight because he needed evidence of his absence. So he could only wait until tomorrow night to secretly enter the hospital and administer it to his father using the same method.
Meanwhile, it was a sleepless night for some individuals in the hospital, namely the on-duty doctors and other medical staff.
As morning arrived, the hospital's director, along with some department heads and attending physicians, gathered together to discuss the condition of the patient from the previous night.
"Dr. Zhou, have you thoroughly investigated the medication used by the patient last night?" the director asked.contemporary romance
"Director, we have checked the medication used by the patient in recent days, and everything appears to be normal. They were routine medications we use for tumor patients. Furthermore, we reviewed the surveillance videos in the corridor from these past few days, and apart from the hospital staff and the patient's family members, no one else had contact with the patient," Dr. Zhou hurriedly explained.
It turned out that after discovering the patient's special condition last night, Dr. Zhou immediately informed the director and others before examining the unusual medications the patient had recently used, as well as whether any strangers had contacted the patient.
Naturally, they found no abnormal situations. After all, everything Wu Hao did was controlled using telekinesis, including disposing of the injection tools in locations covered by corridor surveillance cameras.
What clues could these individuals find? After all, there were no monitoring devices in the patient's ward. Only the areas with frequent foot traffic, such as the corridors and elevators, had corresponding surveillance facilities.
"What about the substance that is controlling the spread of cancer cells in the patient's body? How is the research progressing?" In fact, it was no wonder the director and these doctors were so excited. After all, this was a revolutionary medication that could completely control the spread of cancer cells!
If they were to discover such a medication, they would undoubtedly be eligible for the Nobel Prize in Medicine, recognizing their significant contribution.
The main reason why the success rate of tumor removal surgeries was low was because they couldn't address the characteristic of tumors continuously spreading within the human body. Therefore, tumor removal surgeries usually only removed a portion of the tumor, while the remaining cancer cells in the body had a high possibility of recurring in the future.
Achieving complete tumor removal through surgery alone was impossible. The best they could do was remove a portion, and then the remaining few cancer cells could potentially be eradicated through medication and the body's own immune response.
However, tumor removal surgeries were generally only effective for early or mid-stage patients. If the cancer cells had spread extensively in the body, the success rate of the surgery was almost zero.
Moreover, not all tumors could be removed through surgery; it depended on the location and distribution of the tumor. If the tumors grew in critical areas of the body, the risks of the surgery increased significantly, and there was a chance the patient could die during the operation.
However, the medication that Wu Hao had invented, which could completely control the spread of cancer cells, had the potential to improve the success rate of surgeries.
However, Wu Hao didn't have much confidence in this surgical method to treat the disease because using surgery to address various medical conditions is not the best medical approach.
If one day humanity develops gene therapy or nanomedical technology, this surgical method, except for injuries caused by foreign objects, will be abandoned for treating various ailments.
As for injuries caused by foreign objects, they can be removed through surgery, but it doesn't necessarily involve cutting off a part of the body. With the help of gene therapy and nanotechnology, these medical conditions can be effectively addressed.
However, these advancements are only expected to happen in the future. Even being able to increase the chances of recovery at present is already a significant breakthrough.
Regarding the discussions within the hospital, Wu Hao is naturally unaware. But even without knowing the specifics, he can guess that the hospital will definitely investigate this matter.
Moreover, the investigation will be conducted secretly, and they probably won't make it public until they have concrete results.
On that evening, Wu Hao arrived at the hospital building. In the garden downstairs, he silently administered the medication to his father using his mental perception and telekinesis.
Since his father was hospitalized, his overall health had significantly deteriorated. Regardless of the specific ailment, once a person is admitted to the hospital, their overall physical condition can't compare to before.
The primary factor causing this is undoubtedly the hospital environment. An environment can alter a person's entire state, and it's not something to be taken lightly.
Of course, in some cases, hospitalization is unavoidable, such as for acute or frequently recurring conditions. In these situations, it is necessary to be admitted to ensure prompt emergency treatment during episodes.
However, for chronic conditions, it is best to avoid hospitalization as much as possible because hospitals are not conducive to complete patient recovery. While hospitals are places for saving lives and providing care, they are also hotspots for various diseases, viruses, and pathogens. How can one expect to fully recover while staying in such an environment?
In my personal opinion, hospitals in the future should be divided into two types. One would be dedicated to accommodating patients with acute conditions that require immediate treatment. The other would be specialized in providing rehabilitation and recovery for patients with chronic illnesses. Patients who require observation or long-term care should be admitted to the latter type of facility.
On that evening, after Wu Hao administered the medication to his father, he continued to observe for a while. Only when he sensed through his mental perception that his father's cancer cells were completely under control, did he leave with peace of mind.
