Zingaphi iidigri fever (kunye nendlela yokulinganisa ubushushu)

Umxholo

• Zingaphi iidigri ngumkhuhlane kumntu omdala
• Leliphi iqondo lobushushu ngumkhuhlane emntwaneni nasebantwaneni
• Yimalini ukuthatha iyeza ukunciphisa umkhuhlane
• Indlela yokulinganisa ubushushu ngokuchanekileyo
• Indlela yokulinganisa ubushushu kusana

Kucingelwa ukuba ngumkhuhlane xa iqondo lobushushu ekhwapheni lingaphezulu kwama-38ºC, kuba amaqondo obushushu aphakathi kwama-37.5ºC nama-38 canC anokufikelelwa ngokulula, ngakumbi xa kushushu kakhulu okanye xa umntu eneempahla ezininzi, umzekelo.

Eyona ndlela ikhuselekileyo yokwazi ukuba unayo ifiva kukusebenzisa ithemometha ukulinganisa ubushushu, kwaye ungaxhomekeki ekubekeni isandla sakho ebunzi okanye emva kwentamo yakho.

Rhoqo, amaqondo obushushu aphezulu anokwehliswa ngokwendalo, ngokususa isiqwenga sengubo okanye ngokuhlamba ngamanzi ashushu, phantse abandayo, umzekelo. Nangona kunjalo, kwiimeko apho iqondo lobushushu ekhwapheni liphezulu kune 39ºC, kuyacetyiswa ukuba kufunwe unyango, kuba ukusetyenziswa kwamayeza kunokuba yimfuneko. Jonga ezona ndlela ziphambili zokunciphisa ifiva.

Zingaphi iidigri ngumkhuhlane kumntu omdala

Ubushushu obuqhelekileyo bomzimba bohluka phakathi ko-35.4ºC kunye no-37.2ºC, xa bulinganiswa ekhwapheni, kodwa bunokunyuka kwiimeko zomkhuhlane okanye usulelo, ukuvelisa umkhuhlane. Umahluko ophambili kubushushu bomzimba ubandakanya:

• Kancinci ukunyusa ubushushu, eyaziwa ngokuba yi "subfebrile": phakathi kwe-37.5ºC kunye ne-38ºC. Kwezi meko, ezinye iimpawu zihlala zibonakala, njengokugodola, ukungcangcazela okanye ukuba bomvu kobuso, kwaye umaleko wokuqala wengubo kufuneka ususwe, ibhafu yamanzi adikidiki okanye amanzi okusela;
• Ifiva: iqondo lobushushu axillary ingaphezulu kwe-38ºC. Kwimeko yabantu abadala, kunokucetyiswa ukuba uthathe ipilisi ye-paracetamol ye-1000 mg, unamathele ngolunye kuphela lweengubo, okanye ubeke uxinzelelo olubandayo ebunzi. Ukuba ubushushu abuhli emva kweeyure ezi-3, kuya kufuneka uye kwigumbi likaxakeka;
• Umkhuhlane ophezulu: bubushushu obudlulayo obungaphezulu kwe-39.6ºC, ekufuneka ithathelwe ingqalelo njengonyango olungxamisekileyo, ke ngoko, umntu kufuneka avavanywe ngugqirha.

Iqondo lobushushu linokuba sezantsi kunesiqhelo, oko kukuthi, lingaphantsi kwama-35.4ºC. Oku kudla ngokwenzeka xa umntu ethe wafunyanwa yingqele ixesha elide kwaye waziwa njenge "hypothermia". Kwezi meko, umntu kufuneka azame ukususa umthombo wengqele kwaye abeke kwiindawo ezininzi zempahla, asele iti eshushu okanye ashushu indlu, umzekelo. Qonda ukuba yintoni enokubangela i-hypothermia kunye nokuba wenze ntoni.

Nantsi indlela yokufumana umkhuhlane wakho ngokukhawuleza ngaphandle kokusebenzisa amayeza:

Leliphi iqondo lobushushu ngumkhuhlane emntwaneni nasebantwaneni

Ubushushu bomzimba wosana kunye nomntwana bohluke kancinane kobo bomntu omdala, kwaye okuqhelekileyo kukuba iqondo lobushushu lahluke phakathi ko-36ºC kunye no-37ºC. Umahluko ophambili kubushushu bomzimba ebuntwaneni zezi:

• Kancinci ukunyusa ubushushu: phakathi kwama-37.1ºC nama-37.5ºC. Kule meko, kuya kufuneka ususe umaleko wengubo kwaye uhlambe amanzi ashushu;
• Ifiva: iqondo lobushushu ezimpundu lingaphezulu kwama-37.8ºC okanye i-axillary ingaphezulu kwama-38ºC. Kwezi meko, abazali kufuneka babize ugqirha wabantwana ukuba abakhokele ekusebenziseni amayeza emkhuhlane okanye isidingo sokuya kwigumbi likaxakeka;
• Ubushushu obuphantsi bomzimba (hypothermia): ubushushu obungaphantsi kwama-35.5ºC. Kule meko, enye ingubo yokunxiba kufuneka inxitywe kwaye uyilo kufuneka luthintelwe. Ukuba iqondo lobushushu alonyuki kwimizuzu engama-30, kuya kufuneka uye kwigumbi likaxakeka.

Umahluko kubushushu kwiintsana nakubantwana akusoloko kubangelwa kukugula okanye usulelo, kwaye bunokwahluka ngenxa yexabiso lempahla enxitywayo, ukuzalwa kwamazinyo, impendulo yesitofu sokugonya okanye ngenxa yeqondo lobushushu bommandla, umzekelo.

Yimalini ukuthatha iyeza ukunciphisa umkhuhlane

Ukususa iimpahla ezigqithileyo kunye nokuhlamba okufudumeleyo yindlela elungileyo yokunciphisa ubushushu bomzimba wakho, kodwa xa oko kungonelanga, ugqirha wakho unokucebisa ngokusebenzisa i-antipyretic, ekwabizwa ngokuba yi-antipyretic, ukunciphisa umkhuhlane wakho. Iyeza elisetyenziswa kakhulu kwezi meko lidla ngokuba yiparacetamol, enokuthathwa ukuya kathathu ngemini, ngeeyure ezi-6 ukuya kwezi-8. Jonga amanye amayeza ukuthoba umkhuhlane.

Kwimeko yeentsana nabantwana, amayeza omkhuhlane kufuneka asetyenziswe kuphela kwisikhokelo esivela kugqirha wabantwana, njengoko iidosi ziyahluka kakhulu ngokobunzima nobudala.

Indlela yokulinganisa ubushushu ngokuchanekileyo

Ukulinganisa ubushushu bomzimba ngokuchanekileyo kuqala kubalulekile ukwazi ukuba ungalusebenzisa njani na uhlobo ngalunye lwethemometha. Ezona zixhaphakileyo zezi:

• Ithemometha yedijithali: beka incam yesinyithi ekhwapheni, ezimpundu okanye emlonyeni ekunxibelelaneni ngqo nolusu okanye inwebu yangaphakathi kwaye ulinde de kube ngumqondiso ovakalayo, ukujonga ubushushu;
• Ithemometha yeglasi: beka incam yethemometha ekhwapheni, emlonyeni okanye ezimpundu, ekunxibelelaneni ngqo nolusu okanye inwebu yangaphakathi, linda imizuzu emi-3 ukuya kwemi-5 emva koko ujonge ubushushu;
• Ithemometha ebubungqina: yalatha incam yethemometha ebunzi okanye kumsele wendlebe kwaye ucinezele iqhosha. Emva kwebhiphu, ithemometha iya kubonisa ubushushu kwangoko.

Jonga isikhokelo esipheleleyo sokusebenzisa uhlobo ngalunye lwethemometha.

Ubushushu bomzimba kufuneka bulinganiswe ngokuphumla kwaye ungaze emva kwangoko emva kokusebenza ngokwasemzimbeni okanye emva kokuhlamba, kuba kwezi meko kuqhelekile ukuba iqondo lobushushu liphezulu kwaye, ke ngoko, ixabiso alinakuba lelokwenyani.

Eyona ithemometha iqhelekileyo, isebenzayo kunye nekhuselekileyo onokuyisebenzisa yithemometha yedijithali, njengoko inako ukufunda ubushushu phantsi kwekhwapha kwaye ivelise umqondiso ovakalayo xa ufikelela kubushushu bomzimba. Nangona kunjalo, nayiphi na ithemometha inokuthenjwa, ukuba nje isetyenziswe ngokuchanekileyo. Olona hlobo kuphela lwethemometha elichaseneyo yi-mercury thermometer, njengoko inokubangela ityhefu xa yaphuka.

Indlela yokulinganisa ubushushu kusana

Ubushushu bomzimba elusaneni kufuneka bulinganiswe nethemometha, njengakumntu omdala, kwaye ukhetho kufuneka lunikezwe kwezona thermometer zikhululekileyo nezikhawulezayo, ezinje ngedigital okanye infrared.

Indawo efanelekileyo yokuvavanya ubushushu bomntwana ngokuchanekileyo yi-anus kwaye, kwezi meko, i-thermometer yedijithali ethambileyo kufuneka isetyenziselwe ukunqanda ukwenzakalisa umntwana. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba abazali abonwabanga, banokusebenzisa ubungakanani beqondo lobushushu ekhwapheni, beqinisekisa ubushushu bempundu kuphela kugqirha wabantwana, umzekelo.
