Malaria Disease

Malaria is an infectious disease caused by a protozoan parasite which is Plasmodium class, where the process is transmitted through the bite of Anopheles mosquito. Protozoan parasites of this type spread in many tropical regions, for example in the Americas, Asia and Africa.

There are four types of plasmodium parasites are able to infect humans, but which are often encountered in cases of malaria are Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax. Others are Plasmodium ovale and Plasmodium malariae.

• Signs and symptoms of malaria disease
The period of bud / incubation of this disease can be a few days to several months later appeared before the signs and symptoms complained of by patients such as fever, chills, shooting pain or joint pain, sometimes vomiting, looks pale / anemis, enlarged liver and spleen, urine looks cloudy / thick because they contain hemoglobin (hemoglobinuria), felt tingling in the skin and having spasms.

However, it is revealed classic signs of feeling a sudden chill, followed by stiffness and then the appearance of fever and sweating a lot after 4 to 6 hours later, this takes place every two days. Among this period, the patient may feel healthy as before. At the age of the children malaria attack can cause strange symptoms, such as showing movement / posture as a result of abnormal brain cavity pressure. Even more seriously can lead to brain damage.

• Classification of Disease Manifestation of Malaria
There are several forms of malaria disease manifestations, among others:
- Malaria tertiana, Caused by Plasmodium vivax, in which patients feel the fever appears every third day.
- Malaria quartana, Caused by Plasmodium malariae, the patient felt a fever every fourth day.
- cerebral malaria, caused by Plasmodium falciparum, patients experience irregular fever with symptoms in the brain, coma and even entered the phase of sudden death.
- Pernicious malaria, Caused by Plasmodium vivax, symptoms can arise very suddenly, like a stroke, coma accompanied by symptoms of severe malaria.

• Enforcing Malaria Diagnosis
With the signs and symptoms complained of and seen by the health team, it will be soon conducted laboratory tests (especially blood tests) to determine the cause and diagnosis to be given to patients.

• Malaria Treatment
Based on the examination, either directly from the complaints that arise as well as more focused on results laboratium then the doctor will give you some medicine to patients. Among them is the administration of drugs to lower fever such as paracetamol, vitamins to increase endurance in an attempt to help the healing.

While the antimalarial drug typically used is Chloroquine, Because the price is cheap and so far proven effective as a cure for malaria in the world. But there are some patients who are resistant to the granting of Chloroquine, so some doctors will give others like Artesunate-Sulfadoxine/pyrimethamine antimalarial, artesunate-amodiaquine, Artesunat-piperquine, artemether-lumefantrine, and Dihidroartemisinin-piperquine.

• Malaria Prevention
Prevention of malaria can be done with cleaning Nest Mosquito, trying to avoid mosquito bites, or the prevention efforts by the administration of drugs Chloroquine when visiting malaria endemic areas.

AIDS

This time I will try to discuss about the definition of AIDS disease, the cause of AIDS, patterns or modes of transmission of AIDS and the handling and treatment given to patients with HIV + or AIDS.

AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a disease caused as a result of breeding the HIV virus (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) in the human body, which it attacks white blood cells (CD4 cells) that cause damage to the immune system. The loss or reduction in body resistance is easy to make the patient infected with various diseases including even mild illness.

The virus HIV attacks CD4 cells and makes it a breeding ground of new HIV virus, and then destroying it so it can not be used again. As we all know that white blood cells is necessary for the immune system. Without the body's immune system so when we are attacked by disease, our body is weak and does not attempt to fight outbreaks of disease and consequently we may die even if exposed to influenza or common cold.

When the human body exposed to the HIV virus it is not directly cause or suffer from AIDS, but needed a long time and even years for HIV to cause AIDS or HIV positive are deadly.
1. HIV-AIDS virus transmission mode1. Through the blood. eg blood transfusion, blood exposed to HIV + on the injured skin, syringes, etc..

2. Through semen, semen (sperm or semen Men). for example, a man sex with their partners without using condoms or other safeguards, oral sex, etc.

3. Through the vaginal fluid in women. for example: Women who have intercourse without a safety net, borrowing and lending of sex aids, oral sex, etc..

4. Through mother's milk (breast milk). for example; Baby drinking milk from women hiv +, men drinking breast milk spouse, etc..

The body fluids that contain no HIV virus in people with HIV + among others Saliva (saliva or saliva), feces (stool or feces), tears, sweat Water
and Urine (Urine or urine).
• Signs and symptoms of AIDS DiseaseA person affected by the HIV virus in the early onset generally do not provide the typical signs and symptoms, patients only have a fever for 3 to 6 weeks depending on the immune system when it got in contact with HIV virus. Once conditions improved, people affected by the HIV virus will stay healthy in recent years and slowly decreased body kekebelan / weak to fall ill because of recurrent fever attacks. One way to get certainty is to undergo HIV antibody test especially if a person feels has conducted activities at risk of contracting the HIV virus.

The signs and symptoms seen in AIDS patients include the following:

1. Respiratory tract. Patients experiencing shortness of breath, stop for a moment of breath, cough, chest pain and fever bleak other viral infections (pneumonia). Not infrequently the diagnosis at an early stage of HIV disease AIDS suspected tuberculosis.

2. Digestive tract. AIDS disease patients showed signs and symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, often experiencing fungal diseases in the oral cavity and esophagus, as well as having a chronic diarhea.

3. Body weight. Patients experiencing the so called wasting syndrome, namely loss of body weight up to 10% below normal due to disturbances in protein and energy systems in the body as it is known as malnutrition as well as interference absorption / absorption of food in the digestive system resulting in chronic diarhea, conditions tired and weak less powerful.

4. Nervous system. The occurrence of central nervous disorders resulting in less memory, headaches, difficulty concentrating, are often looked confused and slow response limbs. At the end of the nervous system (Peripheral) will cause pain and tingling in the palm of the hand and foot, the tendon reflexes are less, always have low blood pressure monitor and Impotence.

5. System Integument (skin Network). Patients experiencing an attack of chickenpox virus (herpes simplex) or carar fire (herpes zoster) and various skin diseases that cause pain in the skin tissue. Others are experiencing hair on the skin tissue infections (Folliculities), stained dry skin (outer layer of skin cracks) and Eczema or psoriasis.

6. Urinary and reproductive tract in women. Patients often have a fungal disease of the vagina, it is as an early sign of HIV infection. Injury to the urinary tract, suffering from the disease than men syphillis and then more numerous women who suffered from smallpox. Other people with AIDS are women many of which become inflamed cavity (bone), pelvic known as the term 'pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)' and experienced an irregular menstrual period (abnormal).
• Handling and Treatment of AIDS Although from different countries continue to perform researchnya in addressing HIV-AIDS, but until now no cure AIDS disease including serum or vaccine that can cure people of HIV virus causes AIDS. The purpose of the provision of medicines in people with AIDS is to help improve endurance, enhance quality of life for them that are known to the HIV virus in an effort to reduce the birth rate and death.

We all expected to not isolate and avoid people with HIV because they need help and support in order to continue to live without much expense and passed away into God with sincerity.

Smallpox Disease (Herpes)

Smallpox disease or so-called 'Herpes' by the medical community is a skin inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of bubbles filled with water in groups. Chickenpox or Herpes Disease there are 2 kinds of classes, and Herpes Zoster Herpes Genetalis.

Genetalis herpes is an infection or inflammation (bubble blister) on the skin especially in genital (vagina, penis, including door rectum / anus and the buttocks and groin / groin) is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV), The Herpes Zoster or by any other name ' shingles' is a skin infection caused by varicella-zoster virus that causes bubbles in the liquid almost the entire body.

Herpes zoster is also said to infectious diseases of the skin which is a continuation of the chickenpox (chickenpox) Due to a virus that attacks are the same, only there is a difference with the chicken pox. Shingles is characterized by a larger bubble smallpox and in groups in certain parts of the body, can in the back, forehead or chest.

• Modes of Transmission Diseases Chickenpox (Herpes)
In general, all types of herpes can be transmitted through direct contact. However, in herpes zoster, which occurs in diseases such as smallpox (chickenpox), the process of transmission can be through sneezing, coughing, contaminated clothing and touch upon bubbles / blisters that burst. In genital herpes disease (genetalia), transmission occurs through sexual behavior. So the disease is sometimes suffered by Herpes Genetalis section related oral oral sex. The symptoms will arise in the period 7-21 days after a person is in contact (infected), varicella-zoster virus.

Someone who has had chicken pox and later healed, the virus is actually not 100% lost from the body, but hiding in the dorsal ganglion cells sensory nervous system of patients. When the immune system (immune) weakened, the virus will return in the form of herpes zoster attack which caused symptoms similar to chickenpox disease (chickenpox). For someone who has never had chicken pox, if attacked by the varicella-zoster virus is not directly experienced herpes zoster but had chicken pox first.

• Signs and Symptoms Diseases Chickenpox (Herpes)
Signs and symptoms arising from the attack of herpes viruses in general are fever, chills, shortness of breath, joint pain or stiffness in one part of the body, the appearance of reddish spots on the skin which eventually form a bubble liquid. Other complaints that patients are sometimes perceived abdominal pain.

• Handling and Treatment of Diseases Chickenpox (Herpes)
In patients with smallpox are the most important thing is to keep the liquid bubbles do not break so as not to leave a mark and become the entrance for other bacteria (secondary infection), among others, by giving talcum powder which helps lubricate the skin. Patients, if not stand the cold conditions it is recommended not to bathe, because it can cause shock.

The drugs given to people with smallpox is intended to reduce the symptoms of existing complaints such as pain and fever, for example given paracetamol. Gift Acyclovir tablet (Desciclovir, famciclovir, valacyclovir, and penciclovir) as antiviral aims to reduce fever, pain, complications and protect a person from the inability of the immune system against the herpes virus. We recommend Acyclovir medication at onset of pain or a burning sensation on the skin burn, do not need to wait for the emergence of a bubble of fluid (blisters).

On a serious condition where a person's immune system is weak, people with smallpox (herpes) should get treatment terapy infusion (IV) Acyclovir. As an effort to prevent a person should get the varicella zoster vaccine immunization. In healthy children aged 1-12 years given once. Immunization can be given once again at puberty to establish immunity to 60% - 80%. After that, to improve it, give immunizations once again as an adult. This acquired immunity can last up to 10 years.

Asthma

Asthmais a chronic disease (chronic) that attacks the respiratory tract (bronchiale) in the lung where there is inflammation (inflammatory) bronchiale cavity wall causing narrowing of the airways that eventually someone experiencing shortness of breath. Asthma is most prevalent in developed countries, especially the high levels of air pollution from vehicle fumes and dust of the desert.

• Causes of Asthma
Until now the cause of Asthma is not clearly known despite numerous studies by experts. Theory or hypothesis about the cause of someone suffering from asthma has not been agreed upon by experts in the world of health.

However, the conclusion is that the respiratory tract in patients with asthma have unique properties that is very sensitive to various stimuli (bronchial hyperreactivity = hipereaktivitas airways) such as air pollution (smoke, dust, chemicals), pollen, cold air, food, furry animals, mental stress, odor / aroma (eg, perfume) and sports.

In addition, the occurrence of asthma attacks as a result of the impact of patients experienced upper respiratory infections (URI), either cold or sinisitis. Asthma attacks can also be experienced by some women to the days of the menstrual cycle, it is extremely rare.

Figures associated with increased asthma risk factors supporting the existence of a person suffering from asthma, such as heredity. If a mother or father suffered from asthma, chances are the people with asthma in family members.

The signs and symptoms of asthma include:

- Respiratory sounds (wheezing / wheezing / asthma) especially when breathing out (exhalation). Not all people with asthma have respiratory sounds, and not everyone is breathing terdegar wheezing is asthma sufferers!
- The shortness of breath due to narrowing of bronchi channel (bronchiale).
- Persistent cough at night or in cold weather.
- The patient complaints of chest felt tight ..
- The attack caused severe asthma sufferer can not speak because of the difficulty in regulating breathing.

At the age of the children, initial symptoms may include itching in the neck or chest cavity. During an asthma attack , feeling excessive anxiety of patients can worsen the condition was. As a reaction to anxiety, patients will also be spending a lot of sweat.

• How to Avoid Asthma Attacks
Appropriate measures that can be done to avoid an asthma attack is away from the causative factors that trigger asthma attacks itself. Each patient generally has its own characteristics to things that trigger asthma attacks.

After the occurrence of asthma attacks, if the patient has felt to breathe but it is advisable to continue with appropriate treatment and dosage of drugs given by doctors.

• Handling and Asthma Treatment
Asthma has yet to be treated completely, this means that an asthma attack can occur in the future. Handling and delivery of drugs to patients with asthma were as action arising out against the attacks which are adjusted to the severity of signs and symptoms themselves. The basic principle of handling an asthma attack is by giving both drugs injection (Hydrocortisone), Ventolin syrup (Salbutamol) Or nebulizer (gas salbutamol) to help loosen respiratory tract.

In mild cases where the perceived existence of the complaints that lead to the symptoms of asthma attacks or to prevent further attacks, the medical team or doctor will give medicine tablets such as Aminophylin and Prednisolone. For people with asthma, it is suggested to them to provide / store inhaled medications (Ventolin Inhaler) wherever they are which can help loosen respiratory tract when his attack.

Low Blood Diseases (Hypotension)

Low blood disease or hypotension is a condition where a person's blood pressure dropped below the normal rate, reaching a low value of 90/60 mmHg. It has been described in a previous article (High blood disease) That the normal value of a person's blood pressure with height, weight, level of normal activity and health in general is 120/80 mmHg.

However, some people may have a value of blood pressure (tension) in the range 110/90 mm Hg or 100/80 mm Hg, but they do not / have not or rarely reveal some significant complaints, so it is perceived in ordinary daily activities. If the condition continues, supported by several factors that enable trigger a significant decrease in blood pressure such as sweat and urinate a lot but less drinking, lack of sleep or less rest (tired of the excessive activity) as well as excessive menstrual bleeding (abnormal), then blood pressure will achieve low threshold (hypotension) 90/60 mmHg.

• Signs and Symptoms of Low Blood Pressure
Someone who is experiencing low blood pressure generally will complain about the situation often dizziness, frequent yawning, sometimes perceived lack of clear vision (firefly), especially after a long sit and walk, cold sweat, feel tired no powerful, even experienced recurrent fainting.

On general examination beats / palpable pulse is weak, the patient was pale, this is due to the blood supply that is not the maximum tissue throughout the body.
• Causes of Low Blood Diseases
There are several factors that cause why the decrease of blood pressure monitor, this can be categorized as follows:

- Lack of pumping blood from the heart. The more blood pumped from the heart each minute (cardiac output, cardiac output), the higher the blood pressure. Someone who has a disorder / heart disease resulting in abnormal heart rhythm, damage to or dysfunction of heart muscle, heart valve disease, the impact on lowering the blood pumping (cardiac output) throughout the organs.

- The volume (amount) of blood is reduced. This can be caused by severe bleeding (wound tear, excessive menstrual / abnormal), diarrhea that is not quickly resolved, excessive sweating, urination or excessive urination.

- The capacity of the blood vessels. Dilation of blood vessels causes decreased blood pressure, this is usually as a result of septic shock, Presentation by the heat, diarrhea, drugs vasodilators (nitrates, calcium inhibitors, ACE inhibitors).

• Handling and Treatment of Low Blood
There are several things you can do to improve the condition of lace blood pressure (hypotension), among others:

- Drinking water in considerable amounts of 8 to 10 glasses per day, an occasional cup of coffee to spur increased heartbeat so that the blood pressure will increase

- Eating foods that contain adequate levels of salt

- Exercise regularly such as walking in the morning for 30 minutes, at least 3x a week can help reduce the onset of symptoms

- In women who are encouraged to wear elastic stockings

- Provision of medicines (increasing blood) can only be done if symptoms of hypotension that felt really disrupt daily activities, other than that doctors will only provide vitamins (suport / placebo) as well as some suggestions that can be done for patients.

Regarding the image that most people think that eating goat meat for patients with hypotension may increase blood pressure monitor is actually not clear, however justified if it would increase the content of hemoglobin (Hb) in blood. Once again it must be understood that the low blood pressure means the blood supply was not optimal throughout the body. Haemoglobin (Hb) is low means that the content of Hb as an oxygen binding substances in the blood has low levels that consequently the patient may pale (anemia), dizziness (oxygen in the transport / blood supply to the brain less), feel tired and so forth.

In the case of hypotension that is really required the administration of drugs, usually there are several types of commonly used drugs such as fludrocortisone, midodrine, pyridostigmine, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), caffeine and erythropoietin.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM)

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) also known as diabetes or blood sugar disease is a chronic disease group characterized by elevated blood sugar levels as a result of disruption in the body's metabolic system, where the organ pancreas can not produce the hormone insulin the body needs.

Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that is responsible for controlling the number / blood sugar levels and insulin is needed to change the (processed) carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy needed human body. The hormone insulin function lowering blood sugar levels.

• Signs and Symptoms of Diabetes Mellitus
Early signs that can be known that a person suffering from Diabetes or diabetes that can be seen directly from the effect of increased blood sugar levels, which increase sugar levels in the blood reaches the value of 160-180 mg / dL and urine (urine) diabetic contain sugar (glucose ), so that the urine often dilebung or surrounded by ants.

People with diabetes generally show the following signs and symptoms, although not all experienced by the patients:

Conditions which drastically reduced sugar content will rapidly cause a person is unconscious and even entered the stage of coma. Symptoms of diabetes can develop rapidly over time in a matter of weeks or months, especially in a child with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Another case in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, they generally do not experience the symptoms above. Even they may not know has suffered from diabetes.
• Diabetes Mellitus Type
1. Diabetes mellitus type 1
Type 1 diabetes is insulin-dependent diabetes in which the body lacks insulin, known as Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM). This is due to loss of insulin-producing beta cells in the islands of Langerhans of the pancreas. Type 1 diabetes is usually found in infants, children and adolescents.

Until recently, type 1 Diabetes Mellitus can be cured only by providing insulin therapy is conducted continuously sustainable. Family history, diet and environmental factors influence the treatment of type 1 diabetics.

Especially in children or toddlers where they very easily become dehydrated, vomiting and often prone to various diseases.

2. Diabetes mellitus type 2
Diabetes Type 2 is where the hormone insulin in the body can not function properly, known as Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM). This is because the various possibilities such as defects in insulin production, insulin resistance or reduced sensitivity (response) cells and tissue to insulin which is marked by rising levels of insulin in the blood.

There are several theories which express the cause of insulin resistance, including obesity factor (obesity). In people with type 2 diabetes, controlling blood sugar levels can be done with some measures such as diet, weight loss, and the provision of diabetic tablets. If the tablet is not maximized by providing response handling sugar levels in the blood, then injecting drugs have been considered to be given.
• In Blood Sugar Levels
Normal blood sugar levels ranging between 70-150 mg / dL {millimoles / liter (United Kingdom unit)} or 4-8 mmol / l {milligrams / deciliter (unit of United State)}, where 1 mmol / l = 18 mg / dl.

However, sugar content, of course, there was an increase after a meal and decreased at a time when early morning waking. Someone said to hyperglycemia when the blood sugar levels are well above normal values, while hypoglycemia is a condition where a person has decreased the value of sugar in the blood below normal.

Diabetes Diagnosis can be established if the results of fasting blood sugar level reaches 126 mg / dL or even more, and checking blood sugars 2 hours after fasting (minimum 8 hours) to reach the level of 180 mg / dl. Meanwhile, blood sugar checks conducted at random (while) to help diagnose diabetes if the blood sugar levels reach levels between 140 mg / dL and 200 mg / dL, even more so when he was above 200 mg / dl.

Lots of blood sugar testing devices that are traded at the moment and can be purchased in many retail outlets or pharmacies medical equipment such as Accu-Chek, BCJ Group, Accurate, OneTouch UltraEasy machine. For patients diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus, it's good for them if they can afford to buy it.
• Diabetes Disease Treatment and Handling
People with type 1 diabetes usually undergo therapy treatment of insulin (Lantus / Levemir, Humalog, Novolog or Apidra) is continuous, but it is by exercising moderation and controlling the diet (diet).

In people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, management of medication and treatment is focused on lifestyle and physical activity. Control of blood sugar levels is the key to treatment programs, namely by reducing the weight, diet, and exercise. If this does not achieve the expected results, the tablet drug delivery will be required. Even giving insulin injections are necessary if the tablets do not solve the control of blood sugar levels.
