Embikweni wakho ogcwele wonyaka, ingabe udokotela uthe "une-potassium eningi kakhulu"? Noma uke wezwa othile esho lokho? I-Potassium iyisakhi esibalulekile emzimbeni wethu. Kodwa njenganoma yini, uma iningi kakhulu, ingaba yingozi kancane. Ikakhulukazi ezinhliziyweni zethu. Ngakho-ke namuhla, ake sixoxe ngokwanda kwamazinga e-potassium egazini, okwaziwa ngokwezokwelapha ngokuthi i-hyperkalemia, kanye nezinkinga ezingavela kuyo.

Kungani i-potassium ibaluleke kangaka emzimbeni wethu?

Kalula nje, i-potassium iyiminerali enokushaja kukagesi okusiza imizwa nemisipha yomzimba wethu ukuthi ixhumane. Kufana nohlelo lukagesi oluncane emzimbeni wethu. Le potassium ibaluleke kakhulu ukuze inhliziyo yethu ishaye kahle, okungukuthi, ishaye ngesigqi esifanayo. Inhliziyo inesendlalelo semisipha esibizwa ngokuthi i-myocardium. I-Potassium idlala indima enkulu ekulawuleni izimpawu zikagesi kulokhu nokugcina inhliziyo ishaya ngesivinini esifanele. Ngakho-ke cabanga, uma leli zinga le-potassium likhuphuka, lolu hlelo lukagesi luyaphazamiseka. Yilapho izinkinga ziqala khona.

Izinkinga ezinkulu ezingaba khona ngenxa yokwanda kwe-potassium

Uma amazinga e-potassium egazini ekhuphuka, kungavela izinkinga ezahlukene zempilo. Ake sibheke eziyinhloko.

Ukushaya kwenhliziyo okungajwayelekile (i-Arrhythmias)

Lena inkinga ebaluleke kakhulu futhi eyingozi kakhulu ye-potassium ephezulu. Njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, lapho amazinga e-potassium enyuka, uhlelo lwesignali kagesi lwenhliziyo luyaphazamiseka. Bese inhliziyo ishaya ngokungajwayelekile. Ngezinye izikhathi ishaya ngokushesha, ngezinye izikhathi ishaya kancane, noma izwa sengathi ishaya kancane. Lesi simo sibiza i-arrhythmia. Bheka ukuthi unazo yini lezi zimpawu.

Isibonakaliso	Indlela ozizwa ngayo
Ukuzwa ukuphaphazela esifubeni. (Ukuphaphazela)	Kuzwakala sengathi uvemvane lundiza esifubeni sakho.
Ukushaya kwenhliziyo okushesha/okusheshayo	Ukuzwa sengathi inhliziyo yakho ishaya noma ishaya esifubeni sakho.
Ukushaya kwenhliziyo okuhamba kancane	Ukuzizwa sengathi inhliziyo yakho ishaya kancane kunokujwayelekile.
Ubuhlungu Besifuba	Ubuhlungu bokucindezela noma bokucindezela esifubeni.
Ukuphelelwa umoya	Ubunzima bokuphefumula noma umuzwa wokuminyana.
Isiyezi kanye nokuquleka	Ukuzizwa unesizungu noma ubuthakathaka.
Ukujuluka nokukhathala	Ukujuluka ngaphandle kwesizathu, ukukhathala okukhulu, nokukhathazeka.

Into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi, uma unezinye zalezi zimpawu, ungazinaki. Qiniseka ukuthi ubona udokotela wakho futhi umtshele ngazo.

Isifo senhliziyo

Lokhu akwenzeki njalo. Kodwa-ke, uma ukushaya kwenhliziyo okungajwayelekile okukhulunywe ngakho ngaphambili (i-arrhythmia) kungelashwa kahle, ngezinye izikhathi kungaqhubekela ekuhlaselweni yinhliziyo. Uma uzwa ubuhlungu obukhulu esifubeni noma umuzwa wokuqina, kuyisimo esiphuthumayo. Shayela i-ambulensi ngokushesha noma uye eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela esiseduze.

Ubuthakathaka bemisipha noma ukukhubazeka

I-Potassium iyiminerali esiza ekudlulisweni kwezimpawu phakathi kwemizwa nemisipha. Ngakho-ke lapho amazinga e-potassium enyuka, lokhu kudluliswa kwezibonakaliso nakho kuyaphazamiseka. Lokhu kungabangela ubuthakathaka bemisipha. Lokhu kungaqala ukuzwakala emilenzeni nasezinyaweni kuqala. Kwezinye izimo ezinzima, ngisho nemisipha esiza ekuphefumuleni ingaba buthakathaka futhi ingase ikhubazeke okwesikhashana. Uma kuvela izimpawu ezinjalo, kubalulekile ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha ngokushesha.

Kungani amazinga e-potassium enyuka emizimbeni yethu?

Sithola i-potassium ekudleni esikudlayo. Isibonelo, ubhanana, u-avokhado, amawolintshi, utamatisi, amazambane, kanye nama-tangerine kucebile nge-potassium. Kumuntu ophilile, izinso zikhipha i-potassium eningi ngomchamo, okugcina amazinga e-potassium emzimbeni elinganisela. Kodwa-ke, uma kukhona isifo ezinso,Uma ikhona, izinso azikwazi ukuhlunga kahle le potassium eningi. Yilapho i-potassium inqwabelana egazini bese izinga likhuphuka. Imbangela eyinhloko ye-potassium ephezulu yisifo sezinso. Ngaphezu kwalokho, eminye imithi yokucindezela kwegazi okuphezulu, isifo sikashukela esingalawulwa, kanye nezingozi ezinkulu nakho kungabangela amazinga e-potassium enyuka.

Amazinga e-potassium alinganiswa kanjani?

Ungahlola amazinga akho e-potassium ngokuhlolwa kwegazi okulula. Amanani ajwayelekile alandelayo:

Izinga	Inani (mmol/L)	Incazelo
Izinga elimaphakathi	3.5 - 5.5	Izinga elinempilo.
Izinga eliphezulu	Ngaphezu kuka-5.5	Kungase kuvele izinkinga zempilo. Kudingeka iseluleko sezokwelapha.
Izinga eliphezulu lobungozi	Ngaphezu kuka-6.5	Kuyingozi kakhulu. Kudingeka usizo lwezokwelapha oluphuthumayo ngokushesha.

Khumbula, uma izinga lakho le-potassium lingaphezu kuka-6.5 mmol/L, kuyisimo esiphuthumayo sezokwelapha . Ungalokothi uzame ukusingatha lesi simo ekhaya. Yiya eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo wesibhedlela (ETU) ngokushesha.

Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya

Nakuba i-potassium ibalulekile emzimbeni, eningi kakhulu ingaba yingozi, ikakhulukazi enhliziyweni.
Ungalokothi uzishaye indiva izimpawu ezifana nokushaya kwenhliziyo okungajwayelekile, ukuqina kwesifuba, noma isiyezi . Bona udokotela wakho ngokushesha.
Abantu abanesifo sezinso kufanele baqaphele kakhulu amazinga abo e-potassium. Landela imiyalelo kadokotela wakho kanye nokudla kahle.
Ungalokothi uyeke ukuthatha noma yimiphi imithi noma wenze noma yiziphi izinguquko ezinkulu ekudleni kwakho ngaphandle kokubonisana nodokotela.
Uma uzwa ubuhlungu obukhulu besifuba noma ubuthakathaka bemisipha , kubheke njengesimo esiphuthumayo bese uya eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela ngokushesha.
