Chapter 1678: 【1678】Preventive Medicine
In obstetrics, the common people think that a healthy woman is carrying a healthy child. When the mother and child are not sick, female patients and male family members will wonder why healthy patients and children give a strange man the opportunity to peep. I feel that these male doctors are dirty and use their profession as a shield to engage in healthy maternity in private.
After all, the common people's understanding of the medical industry is biased. I thought I only needed to see a doctor when I was sick. In fact, another very important area of medicine is called preventive medicine. Preventive medicine is closely related to many clinical disciplines and intersects. Obstetrics actually involves a lot of the field of preventive medicine. The group of preventive medicine services is the healthy population.
In the past, only the pregnant woman went to the doctor when she had a problem. Modern medicine is different. Pregnant women are required to file a file in advance to enter the field of medical prevention. There is only one purpose. Early detection and early resolution of the disease. In fact, every discipline of medicine is the same. The long life expectancy in developed countries is directly related to the early and regular inspection of citizens supported by developed economies and entering the field of medical prevention.
The country makes such a tough requirement on obstetrics because of the short period of preventive monitoring. With this amount of money, children’s families and developing countries can afford to burn for the time being. The effect will be seen quickly, and the immediate effect is very good.
If a common man who does not study medicine can really understand this, at least he will not say blank rejection to male obstetricians.
The same is true in clinical practice. When they are usually healthy, mothers and their families may reject male doctors. Once the mother and child are in critical condition, no family members or patients will reject a male doctor who can save lives with high technology. Especially when only this male doctor can save mothers and children.
Those who really observe the hospital will find a very interesting phenomenon in this regard. A bunch of mothers and their family members complained about male medical students and young male doctors. On the other hand, family members of critically ill and critically ill people went to a famous obstetrician for help and did not care about the distinction between male and female doctors.
Those big bosses and doctors have long been open to this phenomenon, and they talk and laugh about human nature. Female obstetricians and clinical female nurses generally prefer men to enter this field, for the simple reason that clinical medicine is really a labor of life, actually thinking about the patient rather than themselves. Think of a fetus. The female doctor and the female midwife cannot push the baby out due to lack of strength. The life of the mother and the child is on the line. The physical strength of the male doctor can save both the patient's and the child's life. Female doctors and female midwives are too happy for the patient's child.
Physiological differences such as male and female physical strength are established objective facts, which must be acknowledged by all. People need to understand.
What are the characteristics of a top male obstetrician? According to the public's impression of doctors, one is technically good and the other is moral, and both are indispensable. To what extent can the technical morality be trusted by female patients and male family members.
By the way, it is equivalent to the role of father.
If my father is an obstetrician, will this mother and her husband dislike it?
No, one of the major characteristics of obstetrics is that an excellent female obstetrician is like a mother, and a reliable male obstetrician is of course like a father.
