Epiglottitis
ʻO Epiglottitis ka mumū o ka epiglottis. ʻO kēia ka mea i uhi i ka trachea (windpipe). Hiki i ka Epiglottitis ke lilo i maʻi hoʻoweliweli.
ʻO ka epiglottis kahi ʻoʻoleʻa, akā hiki ke maʻalahi (kapa ʻia ka cartilage) ma ka hope o ke alelo. Pani ia i kāu puka makani (trachea) ke moni ʻoe i ʻole komo ka meaʻai i kou ala ʻūlū. Kōkua kēia i ka pale ʻana i ka huehue a ʻūʻū paha ma hope o ka ale ʻana.
I nā keiki, hana pinepine ʻia ka epiglottitis e ka bacteria Haemophilus influenzae (H influenzae) ʻano B. I nā mākua, pili pinepine ia i nā bacteria ʻē aʻe e like me ʻO Strepcoccus pneumoniae, a i ʻole nā mea ʻino e like me herpes simplex virus a me varicella-zoster.
ʻAno maʻamau ʻo Epiglottitis i kēia manawa no ka mea hāʻawi pinepine ʻia ka lāʻau H type influenzae B (Hib) i nā keiki āpau. ʻO ka maʻi i ʻike pinepine ʻia i nā keiki o ka makahiki 2 a hiki i ka 6. I nā hanana kakaikahi, hiki i ka epiglottitis ke hana i nā mākua.
Hoʻomaka ka Epiglottitis me ke kuni kiʻekiʻe a me ka ʻāʻīʻeha. Hiki i nā ʻōuli ʻē aʻe ke:
- Kani hanu maʻamau (stridor)
- Fiva
- ʻO kaʻili kala polū (cyanosis)
- Drooling
- Ka hanu paʻakikī ʻana (pono paha i ke kanaka e noho kū i luna a wīwī iki i mua e hanu)
- Pilikia i ka ale ʻana
- Hoʻololi leo (hoarseness)
Hiki i nā alaloa ke lilo i mea paʻa loa, kahi e hopena ai i ka hopu ʻia ʻana o ka naʻau a me ka make.
Hiki i ka Epiglottitis ke lilo i pilikia olakino. E ʻimi koke i ke kōkua lapaʻau. Mai hoʻohana i kekahi mea e kaomi i ke alelo i lalo e hoʻāʻo e nānā i ka ʻāʻī ma ka home. ʻO ka hana ʻana pēlā e hoʻonui ai i ke kūlana.
Hiki i ka mea mālama ola ke nānā i ka pahu leo (larynx) me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke aniani liʻiliʻi i kū i ka hope o ka ʻāʻī. A i ʻole e hoʻohana ʻia i kahi paipu nānā i kapa ʻia he laryngoscope. Hana maikaʻi ʻia kēia hoʻokolohua i loko o ka lumi hana a i ʻole kahi hoʻonohonoho like kahi e maʻalahi ai ka mālama ʻana i nā pilikia hanu.
ʻO nā hoʻāʻo e hana ʻia ana paha:
- ʻO ka moʻomeheu koko a i ʻole ka moʻomeheu ʻāʻī
- Helu piha koko (CBC)
- Kālā x-ray
Pono kahi noho ma ka haukapila, ma ka maʻamau i kahi keʻena mālama nui (ICU).
Hoʻopili ka hana i nā hana e kōkua ai i ke kanaka e hanu, me:
- ʻO ka hanu hanu (intubation)
- Mākehu (hoʻāhu ʻia) oxygen
Hiki i nā mālama ʻē aʻe ke:
- Nā Antibiotics e mālama i ka maʻi
- ʻO nā lāʻau anti-inflammatory, i kapa ʻia ʻo corticosteroids, e hoʻēmi i ka puhā o ka ʻāʻī
- Nā Fluids i hāʻawi ʻia ma o kahi aa (e IV)
Hiki i ka Epiglottitis ke lilo i pilikia weliweli. Me ka lapaʻau kūpono, maikaʻi ka hopena ma mua.
ʻO ka hanu paʻakikī ka lohi, akā kahi hōʻailona koʻikoʻi. Hiki i ka Spasm ke hoʻopau i nā ala ākea a pau. A i ʻole, ālai ʻia paha nā alaloa. ʻO kekahi o kēia mau hanana i hopena i ka make.
Pale ka lāʻau pale Hib i ka hapanui o nā keiki mai ka epiglottitis.
ʻO ka bacteria maʻamau (H influenza ʻano b) ʻo ia ke kumu e laha maʻalahi ai ka epiglottitis. Inā maʻi kekahi o kou ʻohana mai kēia bacteria, pono e hoʻāʻo a mālama ʻia kekahi o nā ʻohana ʻē aʻe.
