• He aha ka pulse oximeter a pehea e hana ai?
• Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i kahi bipi lāʻau lāʻau e ʻike i ka coronavirus?
• No laila, pono ʻoe e kūʻai i kahi pulse oximeter?
• Nānā no

Ke hoʻomau nei ka hoʻolaha ʻana o ka coronavirus, pēlā nō ke kamaʻilio e pili ana i kahi mea lapaʻau liʻiliʻi ikaika paha hiki ke hoʻomaopopo i nā mea maʻi e ʻimi koke i mea kōkua. Hoʻomanaʻo i kahi pinana lole i ke ʻano a me ka nui, ʻo ka pulse oximeter kaomi mālie i kou manamana lima a, i loko o kekona, e ana i ka helu o kou puʻuwai a me ka pae oxygen o ke koko, i hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia i nā maʻi COVID-19.

Inā ʻike maopopo ʻole ʻia kēia, no ka mea ua ʻike mua paha ʻoe i ka hāmeʻa ma ke keʻena o ke kauka a i ʻole, ma ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi, ua ʻike ʻoe iā ia ma kahi manawa o ʻO Grey.

ʻOiai ko lākou kaulana hou, ʻaʻole ʻāpana iki ka pulse oximeter (ma ka liʻiliʻi loa) o ka kūhelu COVID-19 kūloko a me nā alakaʻi lapaʻau i hoʻokumu ʻia e nā hui olakino nui. Eia nō naʻe, manaʻo kekahi mau kauka he hiki i kahi hāmeʻa liʻiliʻi ke lilo i mea pāʻani nui i waena o ka maʻi ahulau, ke kōkua ʻana i ka poʻe, ʻo ia hoʻi ka poʻe i pale ʻole i ka maʻi a me nā maʻi māmā (ma muli o ka nui o ka makaʻu i ka hana ʻana i ka maʻi virus), e nānā i ko lākou pae me ka haʻalele ʻole ʻana i ko lākou hale. (ma hope o nā mea āpau, ka hapanui o nā mokuʻāina e hoʻomau ana i ka koʻikoʻi o ka noho ʻana ma ka home). E hoʻomanaʻo: hiki i ka coronavirus ke hōʻino i kāu mau māmā, e alakaʻi ana i ka hanu ʻole a hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia i ka pae o ka oxygen.

Eia ka mea e pono ai ʻoe e ʻike.

He aha ka pulse oximeter a pehea e hana ai?

ʻO ka pulse oximeter (a.k.a. pulse ox) kahi mea uila e ana i ka helu o kou puʻuwai a me ka momona a i ʻole ka nui o ka oxygen i loko o kāu mau ʻulaʻula, e like me ka American Lung Association (ALA). ʻOiai hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia i kahi ʻenehana i nā ʻāpana ʻē aʻe o kou kino (ʻo ia ka ihu, nā pepeiao, nā manamana wāwae), kau pinepine ʻia kahi oximeter pulse ma kekahi o kou mau manamana lima. Hoʻopili mālie ka mea liʻiliʻi i kou manamana lima a ana i kou pae oxygen koko ma ka hoʻomālamalama ʻana i ke kukui ma o kou manamana lima. Ke huli nei ia i ka hemoglobin, he pūmua i loko o kou mau koko ʻulaʻula e lawe i ka oxygen mai kou māmā a i ke koena o kou kino. Ma muli o ka nui o ka oxygen e lawe ʻia ana, hoʻopaʻa ka hemoglobin i nā nui like ʻole a me nā lōʻihi nalu o ka mālamalama. No laila, ʻo ka nui o ke kukui i lawe ʻia e kou koko e hōʻailona i kou pae oxygen i ke kiʻekiʻe i ka lāʻau, e like me ka World Health Organization (WHO).

ʻOiai ua ʻike ʻia kekahi mau noiʻi e hiki ke ʻokoʻa ka pololei o kēia mau heluhelu ma muli o ka manamana lima i hoʻohana ʻia, ʻo ka hapa nui o nā kauka lapaʻau e kau i ka pulse oximeter ma ka manamana lima o ka mea maʻi. Makemake ʻoe e pale i nā kui kui ʻeleʻele a me nā kui lōʻihi a hoʻopunipuni paha, no ka mea, hiki i kēia mau mea-a me nā lima anuanu ke hoʻopilikia i ka pololei o nā hopena, wahi a Osita Onugha, MD, ke poʻo o ka hōʻoki ʻana i ka ʻōpū robotic a me ka luna o ka Surgical Innovation Lab ma John Wayne Cancer Institute ma Providence Saint John's Health Center ma Santa Monica, Kaleponi.

No laila he aha kāu heluhelu pulse oximeter, kūpono? Pono kou māʻona oxygen oxygen ma waena o 95-100 pakeneka, e like me ka WHO. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka poʻe olakino, e loaʻa i kahi heluhelu ma waena o 95-98 pakeneka, wahi a Kauka Onugha. A inā kūlou kāu heluhelu ma lalo o ka 93 pakeneka, pono ʻoe e kāhea i kāu kauka, keu hoʻi inā ʻoi aku ke kiʻekiʻe o kāu kiʻekiʻe i ka wā i hala, hoʻohui ʻo David Cennimo, MD, he polofesa kōkua no ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. ʻO kēia paha he hypoxic paha ʻoe, kahi i hoʻonele ʻia ai kou kino i ka oxygen, e like me ka WHO. Eia nō naʻe, he 1 a 2 pakeneka ka hoʻololi ʻana mai ka heluhelu ʻana i ka heluhelu ʻana he maʻamau, hoʻohui ʻo Kauka Cennimo.

"Ma kekahi mau ʻano, ua like kēia me ka loaʻa ʻana o ka thermometer," wahi āna. "Hiki ke maikaʻi ka [pulse oximeter], akā lana koʻu manaʻo ʻaʻole ia e pupule i kekahi e pīhoihoi i nā helu. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, inā pōkole ka hanu o kekahi a i ʻole he mau ʻōuli hanu ʻē aʻe e hoʻopiʻi nei iā lākou, pono lākou e ʻimi mālama inā paha he 'maʻamau nā bipi lāʻau iki lākou.' "(Pili: ʻO kēia Coronavirus Breathing Technique Legit?)

A, i ka wā o ka maʻi maʻi coronavirus, ʻo ia kēia mau hopohopo hanu i loaʻa i ka poʻe i ka makaʻala kiʻekiʻe no kekahi loli i ka hana o ka māmā a i ʻole ke olakino i kēia manawa.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i kahi bipi lāʻau lāʻau e ʻike i ka coronavirus?

ʻAʻole pololei.

Hiki i ka COVID-19 ke hoʻoulu i ka hopena ʻeha i loko o ka māmā, nā hoʻopiʻi māmā e like me ka maʻi pneumonia, a / a i ʻole nā ​​​​koko koko microscopic i loko o ka māmā. (ʻO ia, btw, kahi kumu e manaʻo ʻia ai ka vaping e hoʻonui i ka makaʻu o ka coronavirus.) Ke hoʻomohala kekahi i kahi maʻi maʻi a i ʻole nā ​​pilikia o ka mumū, pilikia paha ko lākou kino i ka lawe ʻana i ka oxygen mai kā lākou alveoli (ʻeke liʻiliʻi i ka akemāe ma ka ka hopena o kāu mau paipu bronchial) i ko lākou mau hunaola koko, wahi a Kauka Cennimo. A ʻo kēia kahi mea a nā kauka e ʻike nei i nā maʻi ʻo COVID-19, ua hoʻohui ʻo ia. (Psst ... ʻike paha kekahi mau mea maʻi coronavirus i kahi ʻōpala.)

Ke ʻike nei nā kauka i kahi ʻano hopohopo i kapa ʻia ʻo "silent hypoxia" ma waena o nā mea maʻi coronavirus, kahi e haʻahaʻa loa ai ko lākou oxygen saturation pae, akā ʻaʻohe o lākou hanu, wahi a Kauka Cennimo. "No laila, aia kekahi mau manaʻo e hiki i ka nānā ʻana ke ʻike i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka saturation oxygen-a hoʻomaka i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka oxygen-ma mua," wehewehe ʻo ia.

I kēia manawa, aia kekahi hoʻopaʻapaʻa e hiki ke kōkua i ka nānā mau ʻana me ka oximeter pulse e hōʻike i nā limahana kūpono e hōʻailona inā ua loaʻa lākou i ka maʻi a pono e hele i kahi kaʻawale.Akā ʻaʻole paʻa ʻo Kauka Onugha e lilo ia i mea kōkua. "Me COVID-19, ʻoi aku ka nui o kou hōʻike ʻana i ke kuni ma mua, a laila ka ʻū, a laila pilikia ka hanu ʻana, inā hiki i kēlā manawa. (Pili: ʻO nā hōʻailona Coronavirus maʻamau e nānā ai, e like me ka poʻe loea)

No laila, pono ʻoe e kūʻai i kahi pulse oximeter?

ʻO ke kumumanaʻo ʻo ka hoʻohana maʻamau a me ka hoʻohana pono ʻana i ka pulse oximeter hiki ke ʻae i ka poʻe maʻi me ka COVID-19 a me ka ʻole o COVID-19 e mālama i kā lākou pae o ka oxygen saturation. Akā ma mua o kou holo ʻana e kūʻai i hoʻokahi, e ʻike ua māhele ʻia nā kauka inā he pono maʻi maʻi lākou a ʻaʻole paha (e like me, e ʻōlelo, nā maka maka).

"Manaʻo wau he manaʻo maikaʻi ia no nā mea maʻi me COVID-19 e hoʻokaʻawale nei i ka home, ke ʻike lākou i ka mea e hana ai me ka ʻike - he aha ka haʻahaʻa o ka oxygen, a he aha ka mea e hana ai inā pēlā," wahi a Richard ʻO Watkins, MD, he kauka maʻi maʻi maʻi ma Akron, Ohio, a he loea pili o ka lāʻau kūloko ma ka Northeast Ohio Medical University. (Mai makaʻu a kāhea i kāu kauka.)

Manaʻo ʻo ia he mea waiwai ka bipi pulse no ka poʻe i kānalua (heluhelu: ʻaʻole i hoʻopaʻa ʻia) ka hihia o COVID-19: "Ua noʻonoʻo wau e pili ana i ka poʻe i make ma ka home - ʻoi aku ka poʻe ʻōpio - inā loaʻa ka pulse oximeter. hoʻomaopopo iā lākou a i ʻole ko lākou ʻohana e pilikia ana lākou." (E pili pū ana: He aha kāu e hana ai inā noho ʻoe me kahi mea i loaʻa iā Coronavirus)

Akā ʻaʻole manaʻo nā kānaka āpau he pono ia. Ua ʻae ʻo Kauka Onugha lāua ʻo Kauka Cennimo ʻaʻole pono ia mea no ka lehulehu. "Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi kūlana ma mua e like me ka hānō a i ʻole COPD, he mea kōkua paha iā ʻoe e ʻike he aha kāu mau pae oxygen momona," wahi a Kauka Onugha. "A, inā ʻike ʻia ʻoe me COVID-19, he mea kōkua paha ia [e nānā i kou kūlana], akā, ma ka laulā, ʻaʻole wau i manaʻo he pono ia no nā mea āpau."

Eia kekahi, ʻaʻohe manaʻo manaʻo i kēia manawa mai nā hui olakino nui e like me Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), WHO, a me American Medical Association (AMA) e pili ana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka pulse oximeter i ka wā e hiki mai ana i ka COVID-19. ʻO ka mea hou aʻe, ua hoʻopuka ka ALA i kahi hoʻolaha paʻi, me ka ʻōlelo ʻana he "pulse oximeter ʻaʻole ia he mea pani no ke kamaʻilio ʻana me kahi mea mālama ola" a "ʻaʻole pono ka hapa nui o nā poʻe e loaʻa kahi pulse oximeter i ko lākou home." (Pili: He aha e hana ai inā manaʻo ʻoe he coronavirus kāu)

Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻoe hana makemake e kūʻai i hoʻokahi no nā kumu e pili ana i ka coronavirus a i ʻole nā ​​kumu ʻē aʻe - hiki ke kūʻai ʻia a hiki ke kiʻi ʻia kēia mana home-ʻo nā mea āpau e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke loaʻa ma kahi hale kūʻai lāʻau kūloko a i ʻole pūnaewele e lawa, wahi a Dr. Onugha. "Kūpono lākou a pau, no ka hapa nui," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. E ho'āʻo iā ChoiceMMEd Pulse Oximeter (Buy It, $35, target.com) a i ʻole NuvoMed Pulse Oximeter (Buy It, $60, cvs.com). ʻO ke poʻo e kūʻai ʻia aku he nui mau oximeter pulse i kēia manawa, no laila e ʻimi iki paha e loaʻa kahi hāmeʻa i loaʻa. (Inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻomaʻamaʻa loa, hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā i ka Food and Drug Administration's Premarket Notification Database a e ʻimi i ka "oximeter" e kiʻi i kahi papa inoa o nā mea i ʻike ʻia e ka FDA.)

Pololei ka ʻike ma kēia moʻolelo e like me ka manawa paʻi. Ke hoʻomau nei nā mea hou e pili ana i ka coronavirus COVID-19, ua loli paha kekahi mau ʻike a me nā manaʻo o kēia moʻolelo mai ka hoʻolaha mua ʻana. Paipai mākou iā ʻoe e nānā pinepine me nā kumuwaiwai e like me ka CDC, ka WHO, a me kāu keʻena olakino kūloko kūloko no ka ʻikepili a me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo hou loa.
