KuBob Harper ovela 'kweyona ilahleko inkulu', ukuphinda uhlaselo lwentliziyo ngokulula ayisiyiyo inketho

Umxholo

• Iimpawu zokulumkisa ezifihliweyo
• Ukujongana nokwamkela ukuchacha
• Ukunceda abanye abasindileyo ekuhlaselweni sisifo sentliziyo
• Umbono ohlaziyiweyo

NgoFebruwari ophelileyo, "oweMlahleko oMkhulu kunabo bonke" uBob Harper wabuyela kwindawo yakhe yokuzivocavoca yaseNew York ngokwenza uqeqesho rhoqo ngeCawa kusasa. Kwakubonakala ngathi lolunye usuku kubomi bengcali yomzimba.

Kodwa phakathi kokuzilolonga, uHarper ngequbuliso wazifumana efuna ukuyeka. Walala wazisonga ngomqolo.

“Ndabanjwa ngokupheleleyo yintliziyo. Ndahlaselwa yintliziyo. ”

Ngelixa uHarper engakhumbuli kakhulu ukusukela ngala mini, waxelelwa ukuba ugqirha okwenzeka kwindawo yokuzivocavoca wakwazi ukwenza ngokukhawuleza nokwenza iCPR kuye. Indawo yokuzivocavoca yaxhotyiswa ngesixhobo sokwenza izixhobo zangaphandle esizisebenzelayo (i-AED), ke ugqirha wasebenzisa loo nto ukothusa intliziyo kaHarper ukuba ibuye ibethe rhoqo de kufike iambulensi.

Amathuba okusinda kwakhe? Ipesenti encinci yeepesenti ezintandathu.

Wavuka emva kweentsuku ezimbini esiva iindaba ezothusayo zokuba uphantse wafa. Ubonga umhlobo wakhe owayesebenza naye, kunye nomqeqeshi wokuzivocavoca, kunye nogqirha, ukuze asinde.

Iimpawu zokulumkisa ezifihliweyo

Ukukhokelela ekuhlaselweni yintliziyo, uHarper uthi akazange afumane naziphi na iimpawu eziqhelekileyo zokulumkisa, ezinje ngesifuba, ukuba ndindisholo, okanye intloko ebuhlungu, nangona wayeziva enesiyezi ngamanye amaxesha. “Malunga neeveki ezintandathu ngaphambi kokuba ndihlaselwe sisifo sentliziyo, ndafa isiqaqa ejimini. Ngokuqinisekileyo zazikhona iimpawu zokuba kukho into engahambi kakuhle, kodwa ndakhetha ukungamameli, utshilo.

UWarren Wexelman, ugqirha wezentliziyo kunye ne-NYU Langone School of Medicine kunye neZiko lezeMpilo, uthi uHarper kungenzeka ukuba uphulukene nezinye iimpawu zokulumkisa ngenxa yomgangatho ophakamileyo womzimba. "Into yokuba uBob wayekwimeko engummangaliso kangaka ngaphambi kokuba ahlaselwe sisifo sentliziyo mhlawumbi yayisesona sizathu sokuba angaziva zonke iintlungu esifubeni kunye nokuphefumla kancinci athe umntu wakuva."

"Ngokunyanisekileyo, ukuba uBob ebengekho kwimeko awayekuyo uBob, ngekhe asinde."

Ke kwenzeka njani ukuba indoda eneminyaka eyi-51 ekwimeko entle kangaka ihlaselwe sisifo sentliziyo kwasekuqaleni?

Umthambo ovaliweyo, u-Wexelman ucacisa, kunye nokufumanisa ukuba uHarper uphethe iprotein ebizwa ngokuba yi-lipoprotein (a), okanye i-Lp (a). Le protein inyusa umngcipheko wokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo, ukubetha, kunye nevalveva. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba uHarper wayifumana njengelifa kunina nakutatomkhulu ongumama, bobabini ababulawa sisifo sentliziyo eneminyaka engama-70 ubudala.

Kodwa ngelixa uphethe i-Lp (a) ngokuqinisekileyo yonyusa umngcipheko kabani, uninzi lwezinye izinto zingena ekwandiseni umngcipheko wokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo. "Akukho nto ibangela umngcipheko wesifo sentliziyo, zizinto ezininzi," utshilo uWexelman. Imbali yosapho, imfuza oyifumana njengelifa, isifo seswekile, i-cholesterol ephezulu, kunye noxinzelelo lwegazi konke kuhlangana ukwenza umfanekiso wento esiyibiza ngokuba sisifo sentliziyo, kwaye kumenza umntu-nokuba bakwimo entle, sityekele ngakumbi ekubeni sibe nesinye sezi ziganeko. ”

Ukujongana nokwamkela ukuchacha

UHarper ukwenze ukuba kube ngumnqophiso wakhe ukujongana nayo yonke imiba esisiseko- ukusuka ekutyeni aye kwisiqhelo.

Endaweni yokujongana notshintsho kwindlela yokuphila nganye njengokuphula indlela yakhe esempilweni yokuba sempilweni nokuba sempilweni, ukhetha ukwamkela iinguqu ekufuneka ezenzile ukuze aqinisekise ukubuyela kwimeko entle.

"Kutheni unetyala okanye uneentloni ngento engaphandle kolawulo lwakho njengemfuza?" Ubuza uHarper. “Ngawo la makhadi kujongwane nawo kwaye wenza konke okusemandleni akho ukulawula nayiphi na imeko onayo.”

Kananjalo nokuya kwimo yesiqhelo yentliziyo kunye nokunciphisa kancinci ukuzilolonga, kuye kwafuneka alungise ngokutsha ukutya kwakhe. Phambi kokuba ahlaselwe yintliziyo, uHarper wayekwityala le-Paleo, elibandakanya ukutya okuneprotein ephezulu, ukutya okunamafutha aphezulu.

"Into endiyiqapheleyo emva kokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo yayikukuba indlela enditya ngayo yayingenalo ibhalansi yiyo loo nto ndaye ndeza nencwadi ethi 'The Super Carb Diet'," uyakhumbula. Imalunga nokukwazi ukucofa iqhosha lokuseta kwakhona kwaye ubuyisele zonke ii-macronutrients kwi-plate-protein, fat, kunye ne-carbs.

Ukunceda abanye abasindileyo ekuhlaselweni sisifo sentliziyo

Nangona uHarper ejongene nokubuyiselwa kwimeko yesiqhelo - kunye notshintsho olufunekayo kwindlela yakhe yokuphila - ngegusto, uyavuma ukuba wothuka akufunda ukuba ukuba nesifo sentliziyo esinye kukubeka emngciphekweni omkhulu wokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo.

Ewe kunjalo, ngokwe-American Heart Association, iipesenti ezingama-20 zabantu abasindileyo ekuhlaselweni sisifo sentliziyo ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-45 behlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo kwisithuba seminyaka emihlanu. Kwaye kwizifo ezingama-790,000 zokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo eUnited States nyaka ngamnye, ezo kukuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo okuphindayo.

Ukufunda le nyaniso kuqinise ngakumbi uHarper ukulawula umzimba wakhe. "Kwakulo mzuzu apho ndaqonda ukuba ndiza kwenza yonke into kunye nantoni na endiyixelelwa ngoogqirha bam," utsho.

Enye yezo ngcebiso zikagqirha yayikukuthatha iyeza u-Brilinta. U-Wexelman uthi iyeza liyamisa imithambo ekubeni iphinde iphinde iphinde inciphise amathuba okuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo kwixa elizayo.

“Siyazi ukuba iBrilinta ayisosisiyobisi umntu anokusithatha kuba oko kunokubangela ukopha,” utshilo uWexelman. "Isizathu sokuba uBob abe ngumgqatswa ofanelekileyo kwesi siyobisi kungenxa yokuba enesigulana esilungileyo kwaye abantu abakwezi ziyobisi ngenene bafuna ukumamela ugqirha wabo obakhathaleleyo."

Ngelixa ethatha uBrilinta, uHarper wagqiba kwelokuba abambisane nomenzi weziyobisi, u-AstraZeneca, ukunceda ukumilisela umkhankaso wemfundo kunye nenkxaso yabasinde ekuhlaselweni sisifo sentliziyo ababizwa ngokuba ngabaSindileyo Banentliziyo. Eli phulo lukhuphiswano lwesincoko oluza kubona abantu abahlanu abasindileyo ekuhlaselweni sisifo sentliziyo kwilizwe liphela bezimase umsitho eNew York City ekupheleni kukaFebruwari ukwazisa ngemiqondiso yokulumkisa yokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo.

Ndidibene nabantu abaninzi okoko ndenza le nto kwaye bonke banendaba ekhethekileyo nebalulekileyo abanokuyibalisa. Kulungile ukubanika indawo ukuze babalise ibali labo, utshilo.

Njengengxenye yephulo, uHarper waqulunqa iziseko ezithandathu zokusinda ekuncedeni abanye abantu abaye bahlaselwa yintliziyo bajamelana noloyiko lwabo kwaye basebenze ngokuzinakekela kwabo-ngokugxila kwengqondo, kunye nempilo yomzimba kunye nonyango.

"Oku kungobuqu kwaye kuyinyani kwaye kuyindalo kum, kuba ndinxibelelana nabantu abaninzi abafuna iingcebiso malunga nokuba benze ntoni emva kokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo," utshilo. "Abasindileyo banentliziyo banika abantu indawo kunye noluntu ukuba babhenele kulo ukufumana iingcebiso."

Umbono ohlaziyiweyo

Ukuya phi yakhe Ibali liza kusuka apha, uHarper uthi akanazicwangciso zangoku zokubuyela "kweyona ilahleko inkulu" emva kwexesha le-17. Okwangoku, ukunceda abanye ukulawula iintliziyo zabo kunye nokuphepha ukuhlaselwa yintliziyo kubaluleke kakhulu.

Uthi: "Ndivakalelwa kukuba ubomi bam buyatshintsha," utshilo. "Okwangoku, ngoSindileyo banentliziyo, ndinaso sonke iseti yamehlo aphezu kwam afuna ukhokelo kunye noncedo, kwaye yile nto kanye endifuna ukuyenza."

Uceba kwakhona ukukhuthaza ukubaluleka kokufunda i-CPR kunye nee-AED ezikhoyo kwiindawo zoluntu apho abantu bahlangana khona. "Ezi zinto zincedile ukusindisa ubomi bam - ndifuna okufanayo nakwabanye."

“Ndihlelwe yingxaki enkulu yesazisi kulo nyaka uphelileyo wokuba kufuneke ndifumane izinto ezintsha ebomini bam, kwaye ndichaze ngokutsha endicinga ukuba ndinguye kule minyaka ingama-51 idlulileyo. Kube yimvakalelo, kunzima, kwaye kunzima - kodwa ndibona ukukhanya ekupheleni kwetonela kwaye ndiziva ndibhetele kunam. "
