It is understood that after Song Jian was born, he often had a cold and fever, and when he was three months old, he was admitted to the hospital due to pneumonia and found to have a septal defect in the congenital heart ward. Because of his young age, considering the possibility of spontaneous recovery, there has been no treatment. "The child's physical fitness has always been bad, and he does not dare to participate in physical education classes after going to school. We take him for examination every year, always hoping that the child can recover on his own, but I did not expect that the atrial septal defect was getting bigger and bigger, from 3 mm to 8 mm. Song Jian's father told reporters.

In July this year, the large-scale public welfare project "One Heart , Jointly Forging the Heart of China" launched a large-scale theme public welfare activity in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province, to screen local children with congenital heart disease. On November 6, Song Jian was taken to Beijing Electric Power Hospital for treatment.

On the morning of the 12th, Xin Liping, secretary of the Party Committee of Beijing Electric Power Hospital, came to the ward with nutritional products after learning that Xiao Songjian was going to undergo surgery, and encouraged Song Jian to say: "Don't be afraid, you can participate in physical education class after the operation, you will study hard in the future, you will come to Beijing to go to university, and we can meet again." ”

Professor Liu Huiliang, Honorary President and Director of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of Beijing Dianli Hospital, and Dr. Zhang Jiao, Deputy Director of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, were responsible for the interventional cardiac surgery, and Sun Lizhi, Director of the Department of Anesthesiology, and Hou Haijun, Director of the Department of Ultrasound, cooperated with the operation. Several doctors came to the ward early in the morning to check Song Jian's physical condition. According to Professor Liu Huiliang, Song Jian's septal defect is a moderate defect, and there may not be a dangerous situation usually, but when doing forced movements, it will cause the pressure of the right atrium of the heart to exceed the left atrium, and the embolism formed by the right atrium will run to the left chamber, which will produce danger, so it is very necessary to choose interventional surgery. "Song Jian is a lucky child, and with the help of the 'One Heart • Forge Chinese Heart Together' project, he can come to Beijing for treatment, which also reflects the concern of the party and the state for children in ethnic minority areas."

At about 9:30 a.m. on the 12th, with the encouragement and escort of medical staff, Song Jian went to the operating room to undergo cardiac interventional surgery. When he was just lying on the operating table, Song Jian couldn't help but shiver because of nervousness and fear, and the medical staff took out their mobile phones to let him watch cartoons in order to divert his attention, and constantly comforted him.

After injecting the anesthetic, Song Jian slowly regained his composure and relaxed. After the operation began, the doctors and nursing staff heard the "humming" sound coming from Song Jian's mouth continuously, thinking that he was crying, and after inquiring, they learned that the original Song Jian was "humming", which made the medical staff in the operating room can't help but laugh with relief. With the song of the song key, the whole operation was successfully completed.

"Cardiac interventional surgery recovers relatively quickly, and you can usually be discharged from the hospital in two or three days. After three months, you'll be able to go to PE class like any other kid. Dr. Zhang Jiao said to Song Jian. (China Tibet Network reporter/Sun Jian)
