Zhong Nanshan, academician of China Academy of Engineering, director of Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Diseases, the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical College. He is not only an amiable, respectable, lovely and credible medical expert, but also an excellent party member.
Strive for a sigh of relief for the motherland
In others' eyes, fighting SARS is the biggest challenge that Zhong Nanshan has encountered in his life. But Zhong Nanshan doesn't think so. He admitted that the biggest challenge he encountered when studying in Britain in his early years was his study career.
1979 Zhong Nanshan obtained the qualification of studying abroad in public schools and went to the University of Edinburgh in London, England for further study. However, the British law does not recognize the qualification of Dr. China, and the tutor does not trust Zhong Nanshan, so he has limited his two-year study abroad to eight months. Zhong Nanshan is determined to fight for the motherland. He worked hard, achieved six important achievements and completed seven academic papers, four of which were published in the British Medical Research Society, Anesthesiology Society and Diabetes Society respectively. His diligence and talent have completely changed the views of foreign colleagues on Dr. China and won their respect and trust. He was awarded the titles of "Honorary Scholar" and "Honorary Member" by St. Pavlum College of University of London and Mexican International Allergy Society respectively. When he finished his two-year study, the University of Edinburgh and his tutor Professor Franley kept him here again and again. However, Zhong Nanshan has made up his mind to return to China to serve. He said, "My motherland sent me, and my motherland needs me. My career is in China! "
Working for the party is higher than life.
In 2003, SARS broke out in some parts of China, and a handful of foreign forces with ulterior motives took the opportunity to vilify China. As an authoritative expert on the prevention and treatment of SARS, Zhong Nanshan often takes the opportunity of attending international academic conferences to tell experts and scholars all over the world about the SARS incident in China and the efforts and achievements made by the government and people of China. On May 28th, Zhong Nanshan was invited to give a special academic report on "The Pathogenesis and Treatment of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in China". His professional, open and pragmatic attitude and rational and well-organized debate style attracted the attention of mainstream American media. The famous CNN TV station commented on USA-Today that "the incidence of SARS in Chinese mainland has dropped significantly, which is encouraging". Zhong Nanshan's efforts have, to a certain extent, broken the attempt of foreign forces to vilify China through the SARS incident, and made the international community have an objective and fair understanding of the China epidemic.
During that time, Zhong Nanshan not only had to treat SARS patients in the first line of clinic, but also coordinated the prevention and treatment work in various places. He had little rest and was very tired. His wife often advised him to go out less and rest more, and even lost his temper with him for it. But Zhong Nanshan can't stop, because he regards his limited time serving the motherland and working for the Party as more important than health and life!
See a doctor "three things"
Speaking of Zhong Nanshan, Arjun, a female worker of Guangzhou Post Office, is always very emotional. She said: If I hadn't met Dean Zhong, I would have died long ago. Eight years ago, Arjun repeatedly coughed and wheezed, but even after taking a lot of medicine, her condition became more and more serious. Later, she found Zhong Nanshan. According to Arjun's medical history and symptoms, Zhong Nanshan gave her an asthma test, and the result was positive. Generally speaking, the diagnosis should be clear, and the rest is the right medicine. However, Zhong Nanshan is not at ease. He continued to observe carefully for a period of time, and finally found a new problem from a subtle symptom, suspected to be a tracheal tumor. In order to confirm the diagnosis, Zhong Nanshan personally made a bronchoscopy for her. After the diagnosis, Zhong Nanshan personally arranged the doctor's operation. During the operation, it was a close call. A well-hidden tumor blocks four-fifths of the trachea. When it was full, Arjun disappeared. Arjun said affectionately, "Professor Zhong's extraordinary ability lies in his medical skills. His high sense of responsibility and love for patients are also beyond the reach of ordinary people. "
Zhong Nanshan hates the behavior of individual doctors asking for red envelopes. "The doctor's duty is to heal the wounded and rescue the dying, and there can be no discount. If you choose this profession, you must have this moral character. " Everyone who works around Zhong Nanshan knows that he has a famous saying: Seeing a doctor only depends on the condition, not the background. He also has the famous "Three Ones"-Gao Qian, civilians, rich and poor, urban and rural areas, the same enthusiasm and patience, the same meticulous care, and the same responsibility to the end. He said so and did the same. Now, "three similarities" has become the common pursuit of the medical staff in this institute.
Science can't protect itself.
Zhong Nanshan is a realistic and rigorous scientific worker. As early as when he was studying in England, he decided to do research on smoking and health. In order to obtain reliable information, he asked his colleagues in the Royal Hospital to inject carbon monoxide into his body, and at the same time, he kept drawing blood for tests. When the concentration of carbon monoxide in blood reached 15%, colleagues shouted, "It's too dangerous, stop it!" But he thought that this could not meet the experimental design requirements, and he gritted his teeth until the concentration of carbon monoxide in hemoglobin reached 22%. The experiment finally achieved satisfactory results, but Zhong Nanshan almost fainted. You know, this is equivalent to normal people smoking more than 60 cigarettes in a row, plus 800cc of blood.
This is especially true in Zhong Nanshan, which fought against SARS in 2003. He insisted on seeking truth from facts, was not afraid of authority, and dared to question the "Chlamydia Theory", which prompted the decision-makers in Guangdong Province to adhere to and strengthen the original prevention and control measures, which is also a very important reason for Guangdong Province to achieve the lowest mortality rate and the highest cure rate of SARS patients. It fully shows the conscience and courage that a scientist should have.
People should live in ideals.
Zhong Nanshan likes a teaching from a middle school teacher: "People should not only live in reality, but also live in ideals." He often emphasizes to the people around him that a person's ideals and beliefs are the most important and the soul and pillar of the spirit.
Since becoming a doctor, Zhong Nanshan has successively won more than 20 national, provincial and municipal scientific research achievements, including the third prize of national scientific and technological progress 1, the second prize of provincial scientific and technological progress 1 and the third prize 1, and published more than 70 papers in medical journals at home and abroad. He is one of the outstanding leaders who have pushed the scientific research and clinical cause of respiratory diseases in China to the forefront of the world in the past decade. The outstanding contributions of him and his colleagues in this major have laid a leading position in the Asia-Pacific region in the research level of some respiratory diseases in China. It is no exaggeration to describe Zhong Nanshan's achievements with "outstanding writing style" and "outstanding reputation". However, the 68-year-old man still pursues his career enthusiastically, insists on innovation and never stops in the palace of science. This character has also deeply infected people around us, edified a dedicated and energetic group, and made Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Diseases a high-profile academic position in China-a national key discipline, a key laboratory in Guangdong Province, a national clinical pharmacology base, and a doctoral degree awarding point.
Over the years, Zhong Nanshan's spirit of "dedication, pioneering, hard work and gregarious" has been affectionately praised by comrades as "Nanshan demeanor". 199765438+1October 15, Zhong * * Guangzhou Municipal Committee awarded him the title of "Model party member". The Health Department of Guangdong Province also specially wrote an article asking comrades in the medical front in the province to learn "Nanshan style". On June 9, 2003, KLOC-0, he was awarded the only special meritorious service by the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government for his outstanding performance in fighting against Africa. On April 8, 2004, he was awarded the Bethune Medal, the highest honorary title in the domestic health system. Agree with 95| comment
