Ingabe une-blood clot engalweni noma emlenzeni wakho? Ake sifunde ngqo ngokuhlolwa kwe-(Venous Extremity Ultrasound)!

Ingabe ngezinye izikhathi uzizwa sengathi ingalo noma umlenze wakho uvuvukile kancane, ubomvu, futhi uzizwa ubuhlungu uma uthintwa? Noma ingabe uzizwa unenkinga yokuphefumula ngokuzumayo kanye nobuhlungu besifuba? Mhlawumbe imbangela yalezi zinto ukugoba kwegazi emthanjeni engalweni noma emlenzeni wakho. Yilapho odokotela bethu batusa khona ukwenza i-ultrasound ukuthola ukuthi kukhona yini la magoba egazi. Ngakho-ke namuhla sizoxoxa ngalesi sihloko, ikakhulukazi ngale "Venous Extremity Ultrasound" eyenziwa ukuthola izinkinga ngemithambo emilenzeni. Akukho okufanele ukhathazeke ngakho, kulula kakhulu.

Kuyini `(Ultrasound)`? Ake sikuqonde kalula, akunjalo?

Kulungile, ake siqale sibone ukuthi lokhu kuhlolwa kwe-`(Ultrasound)`, noma lokho abanye abakubiza ngokuthi `(Sonography)`, kuyini. Uyakhumbula ukuthi amalulwane andiza kanjani ebusuku engaboni? Akhipha amaza omsindo aphuma emilonyeni yawo, futhi uma eshaya okuthile bese ebuyela emuva, ayabona okuzayo. Yilokho okwenziwa yilo mshini we-`(Ultrasound)`.

Okwenzekayo kulokhu ukuthi amaza omsindo avame kakhulu , angezwakali emehlweni ethu, athunyelwa engxenyeni yomzimba edinga ukuhlolwa. Bese, lawo maza omsindo ashaya izitho ezingaphakathi bese ebuyela emuva, njenge-'echo'. Lawo maza omsindo abuyayo athathwa umshini bese eboniswa kithi njengezithombe esikrinini sekhompyutha ('monitor'). Lokhu kufana nesithombe noma ividiyo.

Lokhu kusenza sikwazi ukubheka kahle izicubu eziningi ezithambile ezingaphakathi emizimbeni yethu, isibonelo, inyongo, isibindi, inhliziyo, izinso, kanye nesibeletho. Kusisiza futhi ukubona ukukhula kombungu esibelethweni. Okubaluleke kakhulu, kungabona nanoma yikuphi ukuvinjelwa noma ukuqhekeka kwegazi emithanjeni yegazi .

Khumbula, i-ultrasound iyisivivinyo esiphephile kakhulu . Ayisebenzisi noma yimiphi imisebe, njenge-X-ray. Ngakho-ke asikho isidingo sokukhathazeka nganoma yimiphi imiphumela emibi. Kuyindlela ethembekile kakhulu esetshenziswa odokotela njalo.

Ngakho-ke iyini i-Ultrasound ye-Upper noma i-Lower Venous Extremity?

Manje sesiyazi ukuthi iyini i-`(Ultrasound)`. Khona-ke le `(Upper or Lower Venous Extremity Ultrasound)` iyisivivinyo esibheka ihlule legazi emithanjeni, ikakhulukazi ezingalweni zakho (`umkhawulo ongaphezulu`) noma emilenzeni (`umkhawulo ophansi`) . Ngezinye izikhathi lokhu kungenziwa engalweni eyodwa noma emlenzeni owodwa, noma kungenziwa kokubili. Kuye ngezimpawu zakho.

Cabanga ukuthi omunye wemilenze yakho uvuvukele, ubomvu, futhi ubuhlungu uma uwuthinta izinsuku ezimbalwa, futhi mhlawumbe uzizwa ufudumele kunomunye. Uma unezimpawu ezinjengalezi, udokotela angase asole ukuthi une-blood clot emthanjeni ojulile emlenzeni wakho (`Deep Vein Thrombosis - DVT`). Yilapho-ke lokhu kuhlolwa kuba kubaluleke kakhulu. Ngoba uma le blood clot iqhubeka, ingaqhekeka futhi ibhajwe endaweni efana namaphaphu, okuyisimo esiyingozi. Yingakho kubalulekile ukuyithola ngokushesha bese uyelapha.

Ingabe kukhona ukulungiselela okukhethekile ngaphambi kwalolu vivinyo?

Lona umbuzo abantu abaningi abawubuzayo. Eqinisweni, ukuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound ngokuvamile akudingi noma yikuphi ukulungiswa okukhethekile . Uma udinga ukwenza noma yini ngaphambi kokuhlolwa, udokotela wakho, umhlengikazi, noma uchwepheshe wezokwelapha esibhedlela uzokutshela kusengaphambili.

Kodwa, khumbula into eyodwa. Kunezinhlobo eziningana zokuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound. Isibonelo, uma wenza i-ultrasound yesisu, ungase ucelwe ukuba uzile ukudla amahora ambalwa noma uphuze amanzi amaningi. Lokhu kwenzelwa ukuthi izithombe zicace kakhudlwana.

Kodwa-ke, nge-Venous Extremity Ultrasound esikhuluma ngayo, ukulungiselela okukhethekile okunjalo akudingi. Ungadla futhi uphuze ngendlela evamile. Kodwa-ke, into engcono kakhulu ongayenza ukulandela imiyalelo kadokotela wakho ngqo.

Kwenzekani ngosuku lokuhlolwa?

Ungadla futhi uphuze ngendlela evamile ngosuku lokuhlolwa. Njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, akukho ukulungiselela okukhethekile, ngakho-ke akukho okufanele ukhathazeke ngakho.

Lokhu kuhlolwa kwenziwa nguchwepheshe oqeqeshwe ngokukhethekile . Uzosebenzisa umshini futhi ahlole izindawo ezingalweni noma emlenzeni wakho. Izithombe bese zibuyekezwa ngudokotela we-radiologist oqinisekiswe yibhodi ozokunikeza umbiko. Ngakho-ke, qiniseka ukuthi usezandleni zethimba elinolwazi oluphezulu.

Kwenzekani uma ubhala isivivinyo? Ungachaza kancane?

Kulungile, manje ake sibone ukuthi kwenzekani uma senza ngempela isivivinyo.

1. Okokuqala, uzolaliswa etafuleni lokuhlola. Ngokuvamile lokhu kuba umbhede okhululekile onematilasi phezu kwawo.

2. Ngemuva kwalokho, kufakwa ijeli efudumele, encibilikayo emanzini esikhumbeni sengalo noma somlenze ukuze ihlolwe. Le jeli ngeke ilimaze isikhumba sakho noma izingubo zakho. Ingagezwa kalula. Le jeli isetshenziswa ukusiza ithuluzi elincane elithumela amaza omsindo (i-probe noma i-transducer) ukuthintana kahle nesikhumba futhi lithole izithombe ezicacile.

3. Ngemuva kwalokho, i-probe ibekwa esikhumbeni sakho, bese amaza omsindo ethunyelwa ngayo ukuze athathe izithombe. Uchwepheshe uhambisa i-probe ayibuke ngezindlela ezahlukene.

4. Ngezinye izikhathi,Uchwepheshe kungase kudingeke 'acindezele' noma 'acindezele' ingalo noma umlenze wakho. Ungesabi lokhu. Lokhu kuzokusiza ukuthi ubone eminye yemithambo kangcono futhi ubone ukuthi igazi ligeleza kanjani. Kungase kuzwakale kungakhululekile kancane, kodwa ngeke kube buhlungu kakhulu.

5. Ukuhlolwa konke kuvame ukuthatha imizuzu engama-60 ukuqeda. Lokhu kungahluka kancane kuye ngendawo ehlolwayo.

Uma uzizwa ungakhululekile, tshela uchwepheshe ngokushesha. Bazokusiza.

Kwenzekani ngemva kokuhlolwa? Kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthola umbiko?

Ngemva kokuphela kokuhlolwa, ungaya ekhaya njengenjwayelo. Awudingi ukwenza lutho olukhethekile.

Ngokuvamile ungathola imiphumela yakho ye-ultrasound zingakapheli amahora angama-24 (uMsombuluko kuya kuLwesihlanu ngezikhathi zomsebenzi) .

Ngemuva kwalokho, udokotela o-ode ukuhlolwa uzochaza imiphumela kuwe . Uzokutshela uma kukhona izinkinga nokuthi yini okufanele uyenze ngokulandelayo. Bangase bakutshele ukuthi uqale imithi, noma bangakutshela ukuthi wenze ezinye izivivinyo. Konke kuncike esimweni sakho.

Ingabe lokhu kuphephile ngempela? Akukho yini okufanele ukwesabe?

Lokhu kungukungabaza abantu abaningi abanakho. Ake ngiphinde, ukuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound kuyindlela ephephile kakhulu .

• Kulokhu, akukho misebe engena emzimbeni.
• Kuze kube manje, azikho imiphumela emibi eyingozi.
• Njengoba lokhu kuyindlela futhi yokuhlolwa kwezingane ezisezibelethweni zomama abakhulelwe, ungacabanga ukuthi lokhu kuphephile kangakanani.

Ngakho-ke, uma udokotela ekucela ukuthi wenze lolu vivinyo, ungesabi noma ukhathazeke ngokungadingekile ngakho. Lena indlela ephumelela kakhulu odokotela emhlabeni wonke abayisebenzisa ngokuzethemba okukhulu ukuthola izifo.

Izinto ezibaluleke kakhulu okudingeka sizikhumbule kulokhu (Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya)

Kulungile, ake sibheke ezinye zezinto ezibaluleke kakhulu okufanele sizikhumbule kulokho esikhulume ngakho namuhla:

• I-Venous Extremity Ultrasound iyindlela yokuhlola ephephile kakhulu futhi engenabuhlungu esetshenziselwa ukuthola izinkinga ezifana nokuqhekeka kwegazi emithanjeni yemilenze.
• Akukho misebe esetshenziswa kulokhu, ngakho ungakhathazeki ngemiphumela emibi.
• Akukho ukulungiselela okukhethekile okudingekayo ngaphambi kokuhlolwa, kodwa landela imiyalelo kadokotela.
• Ukuhlolwa kuthatha cishe imizuzu engama-60 futhi kwenziwa uchwepheshe oqeqeshiwe.
• Uma unezimpawu ezifana nokuvuvukala, ukubomvu, ubuhlungu, noma ukufudumala lapho uthinta ingalo noma umlenze wakho, ungakuzibi. Bonana nodokotela ngokushesha. Uzoyala lolu vivinyo uma kudingeka.
• Amahlule egazi (njenge-DVT) angaba yingozi uma engatholakali futhi engelashwa kusenesikhathi . Ngakho-ke, uma udokotela encoma lokhu kuhlolwa, kubaluleke kakhulu empilweni yakho ukuthi kwenziwe.

Ngakho-ke, uma kufanele wenze ukuhlolwa okunjalo, ungesabi. Khumbula ukuthi lokhu kuyinto enhle ongayenza ukuhlola impilo yakho. Ngikufisela impilo enhle!
