Lin Qiaozhi embraces a new born baby
In 1949, countless people rushed into Beijing in order to witness the founding ceremony on October 1. Due to the limited space, few people were able to attend. .
However, on the eve of the ceremony, a doctor of Peking Union Medical College Hospital received a special invitation to board the Tiananmen Tower to watch the ceremony. Surprisingly, she did not attend.
The doctor is Lin Qiaozhi. A few hours before the ceremony, her hospital accepted a critically ill woman who had to undergo surgery immediately.
Between the honor of participating in the ceremony and the choice of surgery to save two lives, she did not hesitate to choose the latter.
The operation was very tricky. She kept sweating on her forehead and gradually felt tired. Fortunately, she insisted on miracles all the time, and finally a baby's cry sounded in the operating room.
After Lin Qiaozhi underwent the operation, her patched and washed clothes were exposed, and she fell asleep on the table tiredly.
On an unusual day, she is doing the same job as usual, and she has always been an ordinary person who fears life.
delayed the college entrance examination to save others
In July 1921, 19-year-old Lin Qiaozhi promised his father that he could not pass the test, and Yuspan Yu went to Shanghai to take the test after he got married. . Unlike her friends who are not very confident, she is bound to win the union.
Whoever thinks, Yu Qiongying suddenly fainted in the examination room for the last English exam. At that time, the concept of male and female defense was relatively serious.The male teacher is inconvenient to rescue, and no one else is willing to reach out for the exam.
Lin Qiaozhi dropped the test paper and ran to emergency rescue. He found that Yu Qiongying had fainted from heat stroke. She fed her water and eat Rendan until her friend eased.
But Lin Qiaozhi missed the exam because he saved someone, and regrettably returned home.
However, Lin Qiaozhi lost his horse and knows nothing. Although Lin Qiaozhi's English performance was not satisfactory, a series of skilled first aid operations were seen by the invigilator when she rescued people. She couldn't bear to miss her as a manufacturable material, so she was admitted exceptionally. .
Lin Qiaozhi
Being able to stand out in the 13:1 fierce competition is an affirmation of her professional ability and a compliment for her saving lives.
She keeps in mind that the charity of saving people has given her the opportunity to practice medicine, and she does not dare to forget her responsibility as a doctor to treat illnesses and save people.
Yuan Longpingfu’s first female doctor in Xiehe hospital to deliver the baby
To enter Xiehe, you must first study in the preparatory course. Only those with excellent grades can enter the undergraduate internship stage. Girls were promoted to undergraduate.
When choosing an internship unit, Lin Qiaozhi thought of her original intention to study medicine at the beginning. Her mother died of a gynecological disease when she was 5 years old.
In order to find out the cause of her mother's death and prevent more children from having tragedies like her, she did not hesitate to choose the Peking First Health Office as the internship unit, under the tutelage of Dr. Lin Chongrui.
Lin Qiaozhi
Lin Chongrui is 10 years older than her. She is her elder sister. After studying at the Hopkins University School of Medicine in the United States, she returned to China and served as the director of the health care department of Peking No. 1 Health Center, actively planning Chinese assistance Production business.
Learning with teacher Lin Chongrui, Lin Qiaozhi learned about the current situation of Chinese mothers, and the results of the data shocked her.
The maternal mortality rate is 1.76%,The cause of death is mostly avoidable obstetric diseases puerperal fever , etc.;
The mortality rate of newborns is as high as 27.5%, and most of them die from the preventable tetanus .
Another reason for the high mortality rate of parturients and newborns is that most parturients are still delivered by elderly birth wives who do not know how to disinfect or even the elders in the family.
She witnessed the human tragedy caused by the lack of medical and health knowledge. While heartache, she wanted to do more for these women and do things within her power for the popularization of medicine.
Lin Qiaozhi
When Lin Qiaozhi graduated from Xiehe with the first place, she chose to become the first female doctor to stay in the hospital and work in obstetrics and gynecology.
Even if there is a sentence in the letter of appointment to stay at Xiehe: During the period of Xiehe's employment, she must not get married or have children, and it has not changed her determination.
One year in Beijing, the winter was exceptionally cold. On Christmas Eve, there was heavy snow covering the streets. The chief resident took sick leave, the foreign doctors were on vacation to celebrate the holiday, and there was only novice Lin Qiaozhi in the ward.
In the middle of the night, a pregnant woman with blood in the abdomen came to the emergency department and needed surgery as soon as possible. However, the director of obstetrics was unable to arrive in time due to the snow on the road.
The patient's condition is very unstable, and his life is in danger at any time. Lin Qiaozhi can only drive the duck to the shelf for the first operation in his life.

She knows clearly,This operation was successful and everyone was happy, and her career might be over if it failed.
Before too much thought, the doctor's instinct could make her put on the surgical gown and walk into the operating room.
Recalling what he has learned, Lin Qiaozhi calmly cut the patient’s lower abdomen with a scalpel. This is a symptom of tubal pregnancy, punctured the blood vessels, cut off the broken part, debride, tidy up, suture, a series The operation went smoothly, without the slightest panic.
This operation allowed colleagues to see her abilities, and also let more people know that Xiehe has a powerful female doctor. Her reputation gradually gained and more people came to her for treatment.
Later, she was specially hired as the chief resident 3 months in advance. The affirmation at work and the joy after saving people and the birth of a new life made her more determined to embark on this road full of thorns.

In the first year of working, a couple named Hua Jing and Yuan Xinglie came to the delivery room of Xiehe Hospital . They came to see Dr. Lin Qiaozhi to deliver the baby. .
A few days later, Hua Jing’s mother gave birth to a baby boy, and the couple named the newborn “Yuan Child”. Later, "Yuan Kid" had an official name "Yuan Longping".
Many years later, Yuan Longping's family found his birth certificate. The column signed by the obstetrician who delivered his baby read: Qiaozhi Lin in English.
Lin Qiaozhi not only delivered the babies for Yuan Longping, she also delivered the children of Lin Huiyin and Bingxin .
Yuan Longping's birth certificate
The birth performance at work gave her the opportunity to go to the United States to study at University of Chicago .
Nowadays, the University of Chicago still hangs her picture in the teaching building, affirming her excellence, taking it as a model, and inspiring generations of students to make progress.
In an age when a woman is struggling to settle down and stay abroad, she is taught by professors who have both knowledge and virtue. The most advanced medical laboratory is available for her to use, which is the best choice for her.
She said to her teacher: "The Chinese obstetrics and gynecology sector needs me". In a word, he gave up his easy life and returned to Peking in the chaos of war.
Obstetricians and gynecologists in Dongtangzi Hutong, Beijing
In 1941, Peking Union Medical College Hospital was forced to close due to the war. It is unknown when it will operate normally. The first thing Lin Qiaozhi thought of was, what about the pregnant women who are about to give birth?
To this end, she took out her savings, rented a few rooms in Beijing Dongtangzi Hutong No. 10, bought the necessary medical equipment, opened a private clinic, and hung up "M.D. Lin Qiaozhi "Physician Obstetrics and Gynecology" brand.
Many of the patients who came to look for were ordinary people and did not have much savings at home. In order to reduce the burden of patients, Lin Qiaozhi took the initiative to reduce registration fees and reduce or exempt poor patients from their medical expenses.
These patients under her special care, she treats them the same as normal paying patients, and is more considerate in details. She uses her ears on the patient’s belly to observe the fetal condition and wipes for patients who lack family care. Sweat, tuck the quilt corner.
Lin Qiaozhi often carried a medical kit, put some money in it, rode a donkey to more remote and backward rural areas to treat villagers, and returned to the clinic at night.
Late one night, a rickshaw driver came to the clinic in a panic and asked her for help.Without saying anything, Lin Qiaozhi explained that the nurse is responsible for the patients who need key care in the clinic, so that the rickshaw driver can leave.
They walked through half of the city for a long time and came to a low shack, where the mother's cry was coming.
I was busy most of the night. With the help of Lin Qiaozhi, the child of this dystocia was born smoothly.
The rickshaw driver opened his mouth while holding his newborn son, and the family of three happily snuggled together.
Just before sending her away, the rickshaw driver became awkward. Lin Qiaozhi saw it in his eyes and never asked for the consultation fee. She got to the door of the clinic, took out a part of the money from the doctor's bag and brought it to the driver.
"The parturient is weak, take it, and buy her some nutrients to replenish her body".
The rickshaw driver quickly refused, she patted his hand: "If you meet someone who needs help in the future, you will be thankful."
Lin Qiaozhi turned his head and entered the clinic. The rickshaw driver kept behind him: "Thank you Dr. Lin, thank you Dr. Lin".
Lin Qiaozhi gives maternity check-up
After a short break, it will soon dawn and Lin Qiaozhi should start another day's work. To be precise, she is a person who dedicated her life to obstetrics and gynecology, and is on standby 24 hours a day.
Pregnant women who give birth have to go through labor pains, and the patients sometimes commit suicide when they are so painful, and every time she sees pregnant women grabbing with labor pains, she always stretches out her hand to let the pregnant women hold and get caught A piece of bruise will endure silently.
When the young nurse at the clinic was very puzzled, Lin Qiaozhi gave the answer. The parturient's grip on the cold iron bed rail will leave the root of the disease. If she grabs her hand, she will feel pain for a while, and the patient will be fine.
Lin Qiao was a nurse who looked at the ignorant and said: "Caring is the first prescription given by the doctor to the patient."
There are a few simple clinics composed of houses,It is her position. Lin Qiaozhi fought against the pus, blood, stool, and tumor of one patient after another.
In the smoke of the sky, she rushed through Beijing's alleys, welcoming one life after another with joy. She knew that those children are the future of the country.
The delivery room was home for 60 years
In 1948, Union Medical College was reinstated. Lin Qiaozhi closed the clinic and returned to Union Medical College as the director of obstetrics and gynecology. She just wanted to be a pure doctor.
Being able to go to Tiananmen Square to watch the founding ceremony is something that countless people dream of, and Lin Qiaozhi gave up for the sake of the patient;
The Chinese Women's Federation is preparing to hold the first congress. The members of the Women's Federation sent a representative card to Lin Qiaozhi, and she said that most of them are patients. Shirk.
But when the plague appeared in Beijing, Lin Qiaozhi became active, and joined the medical staff of Beijing hospitals to participate in the epidemic prevention.
Lin Qiaozhi and the children
In 1955, the state decided to commend scientists and scholars who made significant contributions to the country and society. Lin Qiaozhi became the only female academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences .
She can still accept this glory. There are too few people who can be affected by one's power, and it is necessary to use social power to be an example to influence more people.
Every time the meeting is long, she will be impatient and worried about the situation in the ward. As soon as the meeting ended, she immediately returned to the hospital.
The elderly pregnant woman in the ward made her most uneasy. This is a mother who has given birth to 4 girls. In order to give birth to a son for her husband, she became pregnant again regardless of her body.
The uterus of the parturient is weak, and the fetal fetal heartbeat becomes weaker and weaker.It is impossible to have a smooth delivery, and Lin Qiaozhi is preparing for a caesarean section.
is a boy, and Lin Qiaozhi also breathed a sigh of relief. The patient tried what she wanted, but she was a little blocked in her heart. When treating the wound, the patient had a fallopian tube ligation.
Lin Qiaozhi has a meeting with colleagues
The father of the child is very happy, and will have another son in the future, so that the neighborhood will envy him.
Lin Qiaozhi heard the nameless fire in her heart soaring, and reprimanded him: "Birth one after another, can your wife stand it?"
She is thinking about the patient in her heart, and the obstetrician and gynecologist does not stop. It is to deliver the baby, heal the patient's physical injury, and more importantly, be able to treat the patient's mental injury.
Lin Qiaozhi strictly requires himself, and also strictly requires students, and treats the patient's heart. First of all, he must respect the patient from the details.
Once, an intern gave a patient a gynecological examination and did not draw the curtain. She pulled the curtain first. After the examination, she said to the intern: "Please pay attention to protect the privacy of the patient."
The second point she gave to the students is that a doctor must have excellent skills, ideas and courage to take responsibility.

Lin Qiaozhi could not forget a patient she had experienced. In her early pregnancy, she was found to have cervical cancer.
The usual treatment is to remove the uterus as soon as possible, which means that a young woman will never have the opportunity to be a mother.
The patient begged, hoping to save the child as much as possible. Lin Qiaozhi read the examination results and decided to observe the patient in real time to realize her dream of being a mother as much as possible.
She put the risk on herself and asked the pregnant woman to check regularly. As long as the cancer did not spread, she would not operate. With the case of this pregnant woman, she later discovered that the abnormal growth of cervical cells slowed down in the late pregnancy and eventually returned to normal. .
After more verification,Her temporary behavior saved the mother and child who were treated as cervical cancer and the uterus and child were removed due to abnormal growth of cervical cells in the early pregnancy.

Conclusion
