Uma unelungu lomndeni, mhlawumbe umama wakho, ubaba, noma othandekayo wakho, onesifo i-Alzheimer's, uyazi ukuthi kungaba nzima kangakanani ukubanakekela. Phakathi kwezinguquko eziningi ezihambisana nalesi sifo, izinkinga zokulala zingenye yezinguquko ezivame kakhulu ezithinta abantu abaningi, kokubili ngokwengqondo nangokomzimba. Eqinisweni, izindlela zokulala zabantu abaningi ziyashintsha njengoba bekhula. Kodwa kumuntu onesifo i-Alzheimer's, lezi zinkinga zingaba zimbi kakhulu futhi zivamile. Ngakho ake sixoxe ngalokhu namuhla.
Yiziphi izinkinga zokulala ezihambisana nesifo i-Alzheimer's?
Bheka ukuthi othandekayo wakho unazo yini lezi zici. Ukuzibona kuzokusiza kakhulu ekutholeni izixazululo zenkinga.
| Inkinga/isibonakaliso sokulala | Incazelo elula |
|---|---|
| Ukulala ngokweqile emini | Ukulala kakhulu kunokujwayelekile. Ukulala njalo emini. Lokhu kuvame kakhulu ezigabeni zokuqala zesifo. |
| Ukungakwazi ukulala ebusuku noma ukuvuka njalo | Uma ngilala ebusuku, angikwazi ukulala. Noma, noma ngilala, ngivuka njalo ngehora noma amabili. Kufana nokuthi angikwazi ukulala ubuthongo obukhulu futhi ngivuka ngezikhathi ezithile. |
| Ukushintsha kwemini nobusuku | Ungase uzizwe sengathi udinga ukuhlala uphapheme ebusuku futhi ulale emini. Lesi simo sivame kakhulu uma lesi sifo sibi kakhulu. |
| Ukushona kwelanga | Bayaphoxeka kakhulu njengoba ilanga lishona. Bahambahamba egumbini, benza umsindo, futhi ngezinye izikhathi baze bakhale. Bangabonakala bezulazula ebusuku. |
Kungani lokhu kwenzeka?
Ososayensi abakaqiniseki ukuthi kungani iziguli ze-Alzheimer zibhekana nokuphazamiseka okunjalo kokulala, kodwa imbangela eyinhloko kucatshangwa ukuthi ukulimala kwamangqamuzana obuchopho okubangelwa yisifo se-Alzheimer.
Kalula nje, ubuchopho bethu bune-'iwashi lomzimba' lemvelo (iwashi langaphakathi) elilawula ukulala kwethu nokuvuka kwethu. Leli washi yilona elisenza silale ebusuku futhi lisivuse ekuseni. Lapho isifo i-Alzheimer's silimaza lesi sikhungo sokulawula ebuchosheni, izimpawu zokuthi silale nini nokuthi silale nini ziyadideka. Yilokho okubangela zonke lezi zinkinga.
Senzani ngalesi simo? (Ukwelashwa Nokuphathwa)
Into engcono kakhulu ukuthi, yize lezi zindlela zokulala zihlukile, kunezindlela zokusiza othandekayo wakho ukuba aphumule kahle futhi aziphumulele okwamanje.
Odokotela bavame ukuzama ukulawula inkinga ngokwenza izinguquko endleleni yokuphila kanye nokuziphatha kunokuba banikeze imithi. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi eminye imithi yokulala ingaba yingozi ezigulini ezine-Alzheimer's. Ingandisa ukudideka futhi ibenze babe sengozini enkulu yokuwa .
Nazi ezinye izinto ezilula ongazizama:
- Yenza isimiso: Vuka, uncelise, bese ulalisa ingane yakho ngesikhathi esifanayo nsuku zonke. Ngale ndlela, ungagcina isimiso esifanayo amahora angama-24 ngosuku.
- Nciphisa ukulala emini: Nciphisa ukulala emini. Uma ulala, ungalali imizuzu engaphezu kwengu-30.
- Ukukhanya kwelanga nokukhanya: Bayise endaweni enokukhanya kwelanga okuningi lapho bevuka ekuseni. Futhi, ebusuku, uma sekuyisikhathi sokulala, cima izibani endlini. Lokhu kuzosiza ukusetha kabusha iwashi labo lomzimba.
- Ukuzivocavoca: Zenze umkhuba wokuzivocavoca nsuku zonke. Kodwa-ke, gwema ukuzivocavoca zingakapheli amahora amane ulale. Ngisho nokuhamba nje okulula kuzokwenza.
- Gwema lezi zinto ebusuku: Gwema ukubhema, utshwala, itiye eline-caffeine, ikhofi, kanye nokudla okunzima ebusuku.
- Igumbi elikhululekile: Yenza ikamelo lakho lokulala libe yindawo ekhululekile yokulala. Gcina izinga lokushisa lisezingeni elingashisi kakhulu futhi elingabandi kakhulu.
- Qaphela ezinye izimo zezokwelapha: Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu. Ngezinye izikhathi izinkinga zokulala zingabangelwa ezinye izimo zezokwelapha. Isibonelo, i-restless leg syndrome, i-sleep apnea, noma izifo zomgudu womchamo. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukukhuluma nodokotela wakho ngalokhu bese uhlolwa noma yiziphi izimo ezinjalo.
- Cabanga ngemithi: Eminye imithi esetshenziselwa ukwelapha isifo i-Alzheimer's, njenge-donepezil (Aricept), ingaphazamisa nokulala. Uma othandekayo wakho ethatha lo muthi, gwema ukuwunikeza ebusuku. Kodwa-ke, qiniseka ukuthi ukhuluma nodokotela wakho ngaphambi kokushintsha isikhathi sosuku somuthi.
Ungakhathazeki uma indlela eyodwa ingasebenzi. Zama ukuhlanganisa eziningana zalezi zindlela.
Ake sifunde ngamaphilisi okulala.
Uma izinguquko zendlela yokuphila zingasebenzi, udokotela wakho angase akunike iphilisi lokulala. Uma kunjalo, uzoqala ngomthamo ophansi kakhulu futhi anciphise imithi uma indlela yakho yokulala isibuyela esimweni sayo esijwayelekile.
Imithi evame ukunqunywa ihlanganisa:
- Ama-sedative-hypnotics, njenge-Suvorexant (Belsomra) kanye ne-zolpidem (Ambien).
- Ama-antidepressant e-Tricyclic, njenge-nortriptyline (Pamelor).
Isexwayiso: Ngezinye izikhathi odokotela banikeza nemithi yokulwa nokuphazamiseka kwengqondo, njenge-risperidone (Risperdal). Nakuba lokhu kungaba usizo, kuye kwabikwa ukuthi kwandisa ingozi yokufa kwabanye abantu abane-dementia. Ngakho-ke, kubalulekile ukukhuluma nodokotela wakho ngokucophelela futhi uqonde ngokucacile izinzuzo nezingozi ngaphambi kokusebenzisa lo muthi.
Udinga nokulala kahle ebusuku ukuze unakekele isiguli!
Njengomnakekeli, kubalulekile ukuzinakekela wena kanye nothandekayo wakho. Ukuze ube namandla amahle, udinga ukulala kahle.
