Enti, bere a worenyin mpo no, ɛho hia sɛ woma w’amemene no kɔ so yɛ nsɛnnennen.
Ɔkwan bɛn so na wobetumi ahu sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow no?
Alzheimer yare no ho sɛnkyerɛnne no nna adi prɛko pɛ. Wopue nkakrankakra. Wɔ mfiase no, saa sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi yɛ anifere koraa.
Nsɛnkyerɛnne a ɛba mfiase:
- Nsɛm a woasua nnansa yi a wo werɛ befi: biribi a wokaa ho asɛm nnɛra, TV so dwumadi bi a wohwɛe no fã bi, anaa nea wudii anwummere aduan a wo werɛ fi.
- Da biara da nnwuma a ɛyɛ den sɛ wobɛyɛ: Sɛ wuntumi nyɛ tii a woyɛ bere nyinaa no, na wo werɛ afi ɔkwan a wobɛfa so akɔ fie no.
- Nsɛmfua a wo werɛ fi: Nsɛm a wobɛto hintidua mpofirim bere a worekasa no. Ade a wɔtaa de di dwuma (e.g., comb, cup) din a wo werɛ befi.
- Gyinaesi a ɛyɛ den: Mfomso a wodi bere a wode sika redi dwuma, ɛyɛ den sɛ wobɛpaw atade, ne nea ɛkeka ho.
- Adwene mu nsakrae: Wo bo fuw, wo ho yeraw wo, anaa wohaw wo ho sen kan no.
- Sɛ́ wobɛyera wɔ mmeae a wunim no:Sotɔɔ a wobɛkɔ w’akuraa ase na wuntumi nnya kwan nsan nkɔ fie.
Bere a yare no reyɛ kɛse no:
Bere a yare no kɔ so no, saa sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi mu yɛ den kɛse. Ebia wuntumi nhu abusuafo anaa nnamfo paa. Ebia worentumi nyɛ nneɛma te sɛ wo ho a wobɛhyɛ, adidi, anaa wo ho aguare.
Sɛ wuhu sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow te sɛ eyi a, dɛn na woyɛ?
Sɛ wususuw sɛ obi wɔ w’abusua mu wɔ saa sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi a, ade a eye sen biara a wobɛyɛ ne sɛ wobɛkɔ oduruyɛfo a ɔfata nkyɛn ntɛm ara sɛnea wubetumi. Mma w'ani nwu, nsuro, anaasɛ mmu no sɛ "sɛnea nneɛma te bere a woanyin no ara pɛ."
Oduruyɛfo no ne ɔyarefo no bɛkasa, abisa abusua no ho nsɛm, na wayɛ nhwehwɛmu a ɛnyɛ den bi de ahwɛ sɛ obi kae ade. Ɛtɔ da bi a, wobetumi nso akamfo amemene mu nhwehwɛmu (`CT` anaa `MRI mfonini`) akyerɛ sɛ ebia tebea afoforo na ɛde sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow no reba anaa.
Wɔnnya nnyaa Alzheimer yare no ano aduru biara. Nanso, ayaresa ahorow bi wɔ hɔ a ebetumi aboa ma wɔadi yare no ho sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow so, ama yare no akɔ so brɛoo, na ama ɔyarefo no asetra atu mpɔn denam yare no a wobehu wɔ ne mfiase no so .
Afei nso, sɛ wohu ɔyarefo no ntɛm a, ɛboa kɛse ma ɔyarefo no ne abusua a wɔhwɛ no no ma wɔyɛ nhyehyɛe ma sɛnea wɔbɛtra ase wɔ tebea yi mu ne sɛnea wobenya mmoa a ɛho hia no.
Nkrasɛm a Wɔde Kɔ Fie
- Alzheimer yare nyɛ onyin fã a ɛfata. Ɛyɛ yare a ɛka amemene no.
- Mma w’ani ngu sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow te sɛ nkae a ɛyɛ den, da biara da nnwuma a ɛyɛ den sɛ wobɛyɛ, ne nsɛmfua a wo werɛ fi no so. Ebia eyinom bɛyɛ sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow a edi kan.
- Sɛ ɔpanyin bi a ɔwɔ w’abusua mu reda saa sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow yi adi a, mma wo ho nnpopo na hwehwɛ aduruyɛfo afotu ntɛm ara sɛnea wubetumi.
- Asetra a ɛma koma pa (aduan pa, apɔw-mu-teɛteɛ) nso ye ma amemene no. Nyarewa te sɛ mogya mmoroso ne asikreyare a wobedi so nso ho hia yiye.
- Sɛ wohu yare no mpo a, ayaresa a ɛfata ne ɔdɔ mu hwɛ betumi aboa ɔyarefo no ma watra ase a ahotɔ wom.
