ABC Engineering Can Save the Emergency Patients

Handling emergency is very important because it determines the patient's own safety. Therefore in the handling of emergency applied ABC principles.

All causes of death led to the ABC problem, hence can be helped also by the action of ABC. If the fast is done properly, it is probable that the victim can be protected from death

Principles of emergency treatment with ABC are:

A for airway (breathing path)
Be critical to see whether the patient has trouble with her breathing path or not (eg panting), if there is interference it must be released immediately. The thing to note is that the bone neck should be straight so as not to disturb the path of breath. If a patient came with severe wounds on his face it should be handled as usual, or vomiting blood clots can block the path of breath.

B for breath (breathing)
Check breathing whether impaired or not, if the patient's breathing difficulty breathing immediately provide relief. Because the respiratory disturbance will create oxygen can not enter into the blood.

C for circulation (circulation)
If someone is experiencing severe bleeding wound must be stopped immediately so as not to interfere with blood circulation in the body. If a lot of blood that comes out will make the transport of oxygen inhibited that can make the heart work harder or tired.

Brain nerve cells require a good blood circulation to carry oxygen. If blood circulation is interrupted or stopped for 3-4 minutes then the brain nerve cells will be damaged beyond repair though. But if lack of oxygen (not done any action) for 6-9 minutes can cause permanent brain damage or irreversible.

ABC principle is the most widely performed for trauma patients

If any patient presents with bleeding in the brain and one severe bleeding in the face, then that should be first priority is patient with severe wounds on his face because usually experience interference with the breathing path. Unless the medical personnel adequate to handle all at once.

In addition to ABC, the emergency patient disability was also examined whether the visible signs of a declining deficit or not and then by checking the condition of the patient as a whole starting from head to toe and every hole is

Thus, to first aid must not see how severe the injury suffered, but look at whether there is an interruption in the path of breath, breathing and circulation. If there is interference on one section immediately provide relief to avoid death.

Combination Coffee and Paracetamol It works Most Overcome Drunk

Headache from drinking too much alcohol can be overcome in various ways, but a recent study recommends that the most effective way is to drink coffee mixed with migraine headaches.

Prof. Michael Oshinsky, researchers from Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia say that the coffee and the active ingredient in headache medicines are like paracetamol, ibuprofen and aspirin can inhibit the work of acetate.

Acetate is the compound result of the metabolism of ethanol or alcohol hangover effect that triggers such as dizziness and nausea. Inhibition of acetate by caffeine and the active ingredient in pain relief medication to make the symptoms that can be resolved.

The best time to drink coffee mixed headache medicine is 4 hours after drinking alcohol. According to Professor Oshinsky, at the levels of acetate compounds in the body is at the highest level so that the effects of these ingredients may be more pronounced.

Professor Oshinsky Recommendation based on the latest research results immediately sparked controversy. Although some are saying the way it is potent enough, some scientists still doubt the mechanism of caffeine and pain relievers in dealing with intoxicated.

The scientists who disagreed saying, caffeine will only aggravate the dehydration that occurs when intoxicated. One effect of alcohol is a diuretic or shed body fluids, whereas caffeine has similar effects so that body fluids are removed will be many more.

The use of pain medication while intoxicated is also considered less convincing because it is theoretically could harm the stomach and intestines. Alcohol and drug especially analgesics high strength such as aspirin and ibuprofen to form acids that lead to digestive disorders.

Treating Endometriosis Without Drugs

The existence of certain side effects is one reason for lazy people taking the drug, including to overcome endometriosis (growth of uterus is not perfect). Now endometriosis can be overcome without drugs, simply by improving the ability of the immune system.

Endometriosis is a uterine tissue that grows outside the uterus but in the endometrium (lining of the uterus). This condition causes menstrual pain and difficulty becoming pregnant, while in certain severity can spread to the brain tissue and lungs.

Besides genetics, other factors that increase the risk of endometriosis is immune or immune system. Women who have endometriosis have immune systems that are less resilient.

Immune system components associated with endometriosis are Natural Killer cells (NK), which is a natural killer for foreign cells in the body. The ability of these cells decreased in patients with endometriosis and can not control the growth of endometrial abnormalities.

NK is supposed to kill the endometrium grows outside the uterus, but because of weak then left alone. Let strong, NK should be 'schooled' in order to become or LAK Lymphokine Activated Killer

The new method was developed to overcome endometriosis is to strengthen NK into LAK. You do this by removing it from circulation, then 'menyekolahkannya' or reacting with other immune system components namely interleukine-2 (IL-2).

After becoming the SARs, these immune system components are put back into the patient's body. SAR is then going against endometriosis naturally, without using drugs or radical operations which often ended with the removal of the uterus.

Endometriosis Make Hard Pregnant Women

Menstrual pain is not fair is the most common complaints in endometriosis or endometrial growth outside the uterus. For those who never or rarely experienced menstrual pain, other symptoms that can be identified is hard to have kids.

The growth of the endometrium (uterine lining) that is not normally affect the fertility of women in various ways. Among the damaged structures in the reproductive organs and affect the immune or immune system to attack sperm masik.

Damage to the structure of reproductive organs occurs if the endometriosis to grow around the ovaries (ovaries). Endometriosis tissue where it can release patches of sticky and clog the channels that connect it to the uterus (fallopian tubes), so that the incoming sperm does not reach the ovary.

In addition, the endometrium is growing in places that are not supposed to be recognized by the immune system or immune system as foreign substances are dangerous. This foreign body will activate the mechanism of resistance which is sometimes too active so that it attacks the foreign cells that are not harmful.

So many foreign body, the immune system can not remember which real opponent. Including the incoming sperm cells is also considered an enemy, then beaten. So people with endometriosis difficult to have a child.

endometriosis is not deadly but very annoying because it can interfere with fertility and trigger pain. Even if it spreads to the lungs and brain, the patient could megnalami seizures and lung deflation each time having my period.

Condition experienced by about 10-15 percent of women at childbearing age are generally overcome by the provision of hormonal drugs, surgery or even removal if it is too severe. Although incurable, the chance is high enough kekambuhannya which reached 33.3 to 40.3 percent.

In order not to already severe, immediately went when encounter the symptoms of endometriosis. For example, if menstrual pain does not heal despite taking medication, should be examined to anticipate the presence of infection or endometriosis

Found, Drugs to Reduce HIV Risk

Antiretroviral drugs or drugs commonly used to reduce the amount of virus in HIV patients are now developed to prevent HIV transmission, particularly among gay and bisexual men.

Truvada, a drug, a combination of two types of antiretrovirals. The drug is manufactured by a California pharmaceutical company, Gilead Sciences. In a trial known that this drug can reduce the risk of HIV transmission by 44 percent.

The study involved about 2,500 men gay or bisexual from Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, South Africa, Thailand, and the United States. They were randomly assigned to the pill Truvada and the rest received placebo pills. All study participants were also given condoms and counseling about safe sex.

After four years of study, the researchers found that the drug was effective enough to reduce the transmission rate in the group who received the pill Truvada by 44 percent. Those who take the pill regularly estimated the risk of infection can be reduced up to 73 percent.

However, the question arises about the results of research funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Most experts rate, decreased rate of infection could be caused by the use of condoms in the group that received the pills. The experts also said the price is quite expensive pill, which is 36 U.S. dollars (approximately USD 300,000) a day, will make this pill can not be consumed by many people.

Answering questions, Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said the studies are random and this drug is as a complement in HIV prevention. "Condoms and faithful sexual partners is the primary means of prevention," he said.

He also explained that the purpose of this research is to add defense system in the prevention of HIV infection and not replace what's available now. "It is important to increase prevention efforts, especially in the groups most at risk," he said

Apparently it does increase levels of N-telopeptide in the blood, which is a chemical that is released the body in the blood when there is a broken bone.

Then, during four months of study respondents were given tomato juice containing 15 mg of lycopene per day, as well as plus 35 mg capsule of lycopene. As a control group is respondents who received a placebo capsule.

The result is N-telopeptide levels in women who drank tomato juice or lycopene capsules dropped dramatically. But the benefits were not obtained by women who consumed a placebo capsule.

As a precaution, experts recommend the consumption of two glasses of tomato juice every day. Results were published in the journal Osteoporosis International.
