Wake wabanjwa yimvula ngosuku olubandayo, noma ngemva kohambo oluya endaweni efana neNuwara Eliya, wabe usuqhaqhazela? Sonke sike sabhekana nalokhu. Kodwa bewazi ukuthi lesi simo, lapho izinga lokushisa lomzimba wakho lehla khona ngaphansi kwejwayelekile, esibizwa ngokuthi i-hypothermia, singaba yingozi kakhulu ngezinye izikhathi? Kungaphezu nje kokuzizwa ubanda. Namuhla, sizoxoxa ngakho ngendlela elula ongayiqonda.

Kuyini ngempela i-hypothermia?

Kalula nje, i-hypothermia yilapho izinga lokushisa lomzimba wethu lehla liye ezingeni eliyingozi. Izinga lokushisa lomzimba wethu elijwayelekile licishe libe ngama-degree Celsius angu-37 (98.6 Fahrenheit). Kodwa-ke, esimweni se-hypothermia, leli zinga lokushisa lehla ngaphansi kwama-degree Celsius angu-35 (95 Fahrenheit).

Cabanga ngemizimba yethu njengezifudumezi ezincane. Lesi sifudumezi sidinga amandla ukuze sisebenze. Uma sibhekene nezimo ezibandayo, lesi sifudumezi kufanele sisebenze kanzima kunokujwayelekile ukuze silondoloze ukushisa komzimba. Uma sibhekene nezimo ezibandayo isikhathi eside, amandla omzimba ayaphela futhi umsebenzi wesifudumezi uyehla. Yilapho izinga lokushisa lomzimba wethu liqala ukwehla khona. Uma lesi simo singelashwa kahle, singaholela ekumisweni kwenhliziyo ngisho nasekufeni.

Ziyini izimpawu zalokhu?

Izimpawu ze-hypothermia ziyahlukahluka kuye ngokuthi zinzima kangakanani. Zingahlukaniswa ngezigaba ezintathu eziyinhloko: ezithambile, ezimaphakathi, nezinzima kakhulu. Ake sibheke izimpawu ezingabonakala kuzo zonke lezi zigaba.

Kungani lokhu kwenzeka? Yiziphi izizathu?

Ukushisa komzimba okubangelwa ukuchayeka isikhathi eside ezimweni ezibandayo, ezinomswakama, noma ezinomoya. Kungavela hhayi kuphela emakhazeni amakhulu, kodwa futhi nasesimo sezulu esipholile esivamile uma umanzi ngenxa yokujuluka noma imvula.

Kalula nje, le nkinga yenzeka lapho inani lokushisa elikhishwa emzimbeni wethu lidlula inani lokushisa elikhiqizwa ngaphakathi emzimbeni.

Ubani osengozini enkulu yalesi simo?

Nakuba noma ubani angaba ne-hypothermia, abanye abantu basengozini enkulu. Ake sibheke ukuthi bangobani.

• Abantu asebekhulile: Njengoba bekhula, ikhono labo lokulawula izinga lokushisa lomzimba liyancipha. Futhi, imizimba yabo ikhiqiza ukushisa okuncane ngoba banamafutha amancane emzimbeni futhi abasasebenzi kahle.
• Izingane ezincane nezinsana: Izingane ezincane ziphelelwa amandla ngokushesha uma zidlala, kodwa aziqapheli ukuthi ziyabanda. Izingane zilahlekelwa ukushisa ngokushesha kakhulu. Ngisho nokulala ekamelweni elibandayo kungabangela i-hypothermia. Kufanele ukhathazeke uma isikhumba sengane yakho sibanda, sibomvu, futhi sinomswakama.
• Abahambi abangenalwazi abaya ezindaweni ezibandayo: Uma beya ezindaweni ezifana neNuwara Eliya neHorton Plains, le ngozi inkulu uma ungenazo izingubo ezifanele isimo sezulu.
• Abantu abasebenzisa utshwala nezidakamizwa: Uma siphuza utshwala, imithambo yegazi yethu iyavuleka. Lokhu kubangela ukushisa ukuba kuphume esikhumbeni sethu ngokushesha. Futhi, uma sidakiwe, asizizwa sibanda futhi asizizwa sidinga ukugqoka izingubo ezifanele, okwandisa ingozi.
• Abantu abangenayo indlu eqinile: Basengozini enkulu ngoba abanayo indawo yokuhlala efudumele noma izingubo ezifanele.

Yiziphi izinkinga ezingaba khona uma zingelashwa?

Ukushisa ngokweqile kungaholela ezinkingeni eziyingozi kakhulu uma kungelashwa ngokushesha.

• Ukuboshwa kwenhliziyo
• Ukulimala kwesibindi
• Ukwehluleka kwezinso
• Ukungena e-coma
• Ukufa

Yini esiyenzayo kumuntu one-hypothermia?

Uma othile endaweni yakini ekhombisa izimpawu zokushisa komzimba okuphezulu, kuyisimo esiphuthumayo. Into yokuqala nebaluleke kakhulu okufanele uyenze ukufuna usizo lwezokwelapha ngokushesha . Okwamanje, kunezinto ezimbalwa ongazenza.

Izinto okudingeka sizenze kuqala (usizo lokuqala)

1. Hamba uye endaweni efudumele neyomile: Ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka, susa umuntu emakhazeni nasebumnyameni bese umhambisa endaweni efudumele, njengegumbi.

2. Susa izingubo ezimanzi: Khumula zonke izingubo ezimanzi bese ugqoka izingubo ezomile.

3. Songa kahle: Zigcine ufudumele ngokuzisonga kahle ngezingubo zokulala ezomile, amajakethi, izigqoko, kanye namasokisi.

• Gwema ukuphuza utshwala: Gwema ukuphuza utshwala uma kubanda.

Kufanele ubonane nini nodokotela?

Lokhu kuyinto edinga ukuphindwa. I-Hypothermia iyisimo esiphuthumayo sezokwelapha. Uma usola ukuthi wena noma othile omaziyo unalezi zimpawu, ungachithi isikhathi uye eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo wesibhedlela esiseduze (i-ETU). Uma uthola ukwelashwa ngokushesha, amathuba okuba nezinkinga ayancipha.
