"Dr. Liu, this is Han's wife." While they were still waiting for lunch, Manager Qu led Han's wife over.
"Hello. Han is currently in Room 202, and we're observing him. His oxygen saturation has improved significantly. We should be able to remove the pulmonary embolus this afternoon," Liu Banxia said with a smile. "Don't be alarmed if you see him intubated; it's a protective measure. Intubation under general anesthesia is also necessary for the pulmonary vein thrombectomy."
"Doctor, is his condition serious? Is his life in danger?" Han's wife asked.
"At the moment, it seems he's out of immediate danger and has passed the critical period. However, the embolus in his lungs is still present, which affects his oxygen supply somewhat. His blood oxygen saturation is currently only at 93%," Liu Banxia explained. "This is all temporary. After the thrombectomy this afternoon, we'll place a filter in the deep veins of his leg, so you won't need to worry in the future."
