Yu ɔ pɔsin we yu sabi dɔn tɛl yu bɔt wan sik we dɛn kɔl ‘ Hydrocephalus ’ ɛn se dɛn fɔ put ‘VP Shunt’ as tritmɛnt fɔ am? Na nɔmal tin fɔ fil smɔl frayd, fred, ɛn gɛt big kwɛstyɔn bɔt wetin dis na. So tide, lɛ wi tɔk bɔt wetin dis VP Shunt bi, wetin i de du, ɛn aw dɛn put am, insay wan simpul we we yu go ɔndastand.
Us kɔndishɔn dɛn kin trit wit VP shunt?
Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, dɛn kin yuz VP Shunt fɔ trit wan sik we dɛn kɔl Hydrocephalus . Naw yu go de wɔnda wetin na dat.
Wan spɛshal wata de we de rawnd wi bren fɔ protɛkt am. Wi kin kɔl dis Sɛribrospinal Fluid (CSF) . I tan lɛk di shok absɔba dɛn we de na motoka. I de protɛkt di bren bay we i de mek i nɔ jok ɛn jol. I de ɛp bak fɔ kɛr di tin dɛn we i nid ɛn pul di dɔti tin dɛn we de na di bren.
bכt sכmtεm dis CSF fכluid kin kכmכt pasmak, כ di bכdi kin tek am bak we i nכ de abzכp am bak fayn fayn wan. Dɔn dis wata kin gɛda insay di bren, ɛn dis kin mek di bren prɛshɔn bɔku. Na dat wi kin kɔl Hydrocephalus. Dis prɛshɔn kin mek yu gɛt difrɛn sayn dɛn .

Aw dis VP Shunt de rili wok?
VP shunt na wan rili tin plastic tכb we dεn de yuz fכ drεn εksyכs CSF fכluid frכm di bren to כda pat na di bכdi, כltεm di bכdi kכva (insay di bεlε). Na de, di bɔdi de tek di wata.
Dis tiub sistem gɛt spɛshal valv (wan-way valv). Dis kin mek di wata flɔ na wan say nɔmɔ, fa frɔm di bren. Di dɔktɔ kin sɛt wan patikyula prɛshɔn sɛtin fɔ dis valv. we di CSF wata we de na di bren inkrεs εn di prεshכn pas da sεt pכynt de, dis valv de opin εn di εkstra fכlכ de fכlכ insay di bכdi. We di prɛshɔn kam bak to nɔmal, di valv kin lɔk. Wan rili simpul, bɔt rili impɔtant prɔses.
Tu kayn shunt de? (Fiks ɛn Programmable)
Yɛs, na tu kayn valv dɛn ya mɔ.
1. Fiks Valv Shunt: Dɛn kin no di prɛshɔn lɛvɛl fɔ dɛn valv ya bifo dɛn du di ɔpreshɔn. We dɛn dɔn put am insay, dɛn nɔ go ebul fɔ chenj am. Dɛn nid fɔ du ɔda ɔpreshɔn.
2. Programmable Valve Shunts: Na dɛn wan ya dɛn kin yuz mɔ. di prεshכn lεvεl fכ dεn valv dεm ya kin chenj ivin afta dεn כpεrayshכn. I nɔ nid fɔ du ɔda ɔpreshɔn. Di dɔktɔ kin ajɔst dis prɛshɔn lɛvɛl na in rum, ɛn i kin yuz wan spɛshal magnet, we dɛn kin put pan di skin.
Dɛn tu kayn ya dɔn gɛt ikwal sakrifays pan klinik trial, bɔt bɔku tɛm di dɔktɔ dɛn we de du ɔpreshɔn kin pik di kayn we we dɛn kin program bikɔs dɛn kin chenj am izi wan if nid de.
Aw dɛn kin du di ɔpreshɔn fɔ put di shunt insay?
Bɔku tɛm, dis ɔpreshɔn kin tek lɛk wan awa so. Yu nɔ go fil ɛni pen bikɔs dɛn go gi yu anestezi, we min se yu go slip ɔl.
- Fɔs, dɛn kin kɔt smɔl pat pan di ia frɔm wan rili smɔl pat na di ed, dɛn kin kɔt smɔl pat na di skin, ɛn dɛn kin mek wan rili smɔl ol na di ed.
- afta dat, di sajin de put wan εnd pan dis shunt tכb insay wan chεmba we fulכp wit wata insay di bren, we dεn kכl ‘vεntrikul’ .
- di כda εnd dεn kin pas כnda di skin, tru di nεk, εn dεn kin put am insay di bכdi tru wan sכmכl say we dεn kכl na di bכdi.
- Fɔ dɔn, dɛn kin lɔk dɛn say dɛn ya wit stich ɔ step ɛn bandej dɛn.
Afta dɛn dɔn du di ɔpreshɔn, dɛn go kɛr yu go na rum usay dɛn de mɛn pipul dɛn we dɔn wɛl ɛn wan nɔs go tek tɛm kia fɔ yu. We yu wek, yu kin fil lɛk se yu taya smɔl ɛn yu wik. Yu kin gɛt smɔl bɛlɛ pen bak. Afta sɔm tɛm, dɛn go transfa yu to wan rɛgyula wɔd. As yu de wɛl smɔl smɔl, yu kin grap, waka rawnd, ɛn bigin it nɔmal wan. If di dɔktɔ tink se yu dɔn rɛdi fɔ go na os, yu kin go na os insay wan ɔ tu dez.
Di impɔtant tin na dat, yu nɔ de si dis shunt frɔm do. Bɔt if yu tɔch am, yu go fil dis plastic tiub de rɔn ɔnda di skin na yu nɛk.
Aw yu kin tek kia ɔf di shunt afta dɛn dɔn put am?
Nɔ spɛshal kia nɔ de fɔ di shunt ɛvride. Bɔt , i impɔtant fɔ fala yu ɔspitul instrɔkshɔn ɛn atɛnd fɔl-ɔp visit ɔltɛm. Dɔn yu dɔktɔ kin chɛk di prɛshɔn lɛvɛl na di shunt fɔ mek shɔ se i de wok fayn.
Apat frɔm dat, yu fɔ tek tɛm bak wit dɛn tin ya.

Ustɛm fɔ go to dɔktɔ
If yu gɛt programmable shunt ɛn wan ɔ mɔ pan dɛn simptom ya de kɔntinyu, go to yu dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm ɛn mek dɛn chɛk di shunt prɛshɔn. Dis kin bi sayn dɛm fɔ sho se di shunt nɔ de wok fayn.

Wetin na di bad tin dɛn we kin apin we dis kin apin?
VP shunt na jɔs wan tin we rili sef, bɔt lɛk ɛni ɔpreshɔn, sɔm risk dɛn de.
Di men risk na infekshɔn. Infεkshכn na di shunt na mεdikal imejensi. Yu dɔktɔ go ɛksplen to yu klia wan di sayn dɛm fɔ di infekshɔn (lɛk fiva, rɛd arawnd di say we dɛn kɔt, swel, pen) ɛn wetin fɔ du if i apin. I rili impɔtant fɔ fala dɛn instrɔkshɔn dɛn de di rayt we.
Wan ɔda tin na dat, as tɛm de go, di shunt kin blok ɔ i nɔ kin wok fayn. Dɔn yu go nid ɔda ɔpreshɔn fɔ chenj am ɔ fɔ mek i fayn. Bɔku tɛm di sayn dɛm we de sho se di shunt nɔ de wok na di sem wit di sayn dɛm fɔ haydrosɛfalɔs we yu bin gɛt bifo dɛn put di shunt. So if yu gɛt ɛni wan pan dɛn sik ya bak, kɔl yu dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm.
Wetin na di bɛnifit dɛn we pɔsin kin gɛt we i gɛt VP shunt?
We yu kɔmpia dɛn risk ya, di bɛnifit dɛn we VP shunt kin gi kin rili ay.
- Dis kin sɔlv di sayn dɛm fɔ haydrosɛfalɔs insay sɔm dez.
- We dɛn pul di prɛshɔn we denja pan di bren, i pɔsibul fɔ mek di bren nɔ pwɛl sote go bikɔs ɔf prɛshɔn.
- Yu go gɛt di chans fɔ liv nɔmal layf bak.
I kin tek sɔm wik ɔ mɔnt fɔ mek i wɛl ɔl. Ivin afta yu dɔn wɛl, di shunt go de na yu bɔdi. Dɛn nɔ go pul am.
Mɛsej we dɛn kin kɛr go na os
- VP Shunt na wan tin tכb we de pul di εksyכs sεribrospεnal fכluid (CSF) frכm di bren εn de ridyus di prεshכn pan di bren. Na fayn tritmɛnt fɔ di sik we dɛn kɔl Hydrocephalus.
- Dis ɔpreshɔn kin jɔs sef. Di shunt nɔ de si afta di ɔpreshɔn.
- Shunt infεkshכn na mεdikal imejensi. If yu gɛt sɔm sayn dɛm fɔ infekshɔn lɛk fiva, ed we de at, ɔ we yu de vɔmit, go na ɔspitul imejensi rum (ETU) wantɛm wantɛm ɔ tɛl yu dɔktɔ.
- If di simptom dɛm we bin de bifo dɛn put di shunt (ed pen, vɔmit, i nɔ izi fɔ waka) kam bak, i kin bi se di shunt nɔ de wok fayn. Kɔl yu dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm.
- Nɔ ɛva skip fɔ fala yu dɔktɔ. I rili impɔtant fɔ yu wɛlbɔdi.
