I-Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ekwabizwa ngokuba yi-ALS, sisifo esiya sisiba mandundu esibangela ukutshabalalisa ii-neurons ezinoxanduva lokuhamba kwemisipha yokuzithandela, ekhokelela ekukhubazekeni okuqhubekayo okugcina kuthintela imisebenzi elula njengokuhamba, ukuhlafuna okanye ukuthetha, umzekelo.

Ngokuhamba kwexesha, esi sifo sibangela ukwehla kwamandla emisipha, ngakumbi ezingalweni nasemilenzeni, kwaye kwiimeko ezihambele phambili, umntu ochaphazelekayo ukhubazeka kwaye izihlunu zabo ziqala ukoma, ziba mncinci kwaye zinciphe.

I-Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ayinalo unyango, kodwa unyango nge-physiotherapy kunye namayeza, anjengeRiluzole, anceda ukulibazisa ukuqhubela phambili kwesi sifo kunye nokugcina ukuzimela kangangoko kunokwenzeka kwimisebenzi yemihla ngemihla. Fumana ngakumbi malunga neli yeza lisetyenziswa kunyango.

Iimpawu eziphambili

Iimpawu zokuqala ze-ALS kunzima ukuzichaza kwaye ziyahluka ukusuka komnye umntu ukuya komnye. Ngamanye amaxesha kuqhelekile ukuba umntu aqale ukukhubeka iikhaphethi, ngelixa kwezinye kunzima ukubhala, ukuphakamisa into okanye ukuthetha ngokuchanekileyo, umzekelo.

Nangona kunjalo, ngokuqhubela phambili kwesi sifo, iimpawu ziya zibonakala ngakumbi, ziya kubakho:

• Ukwehla kwamandla kwiimisipha zomqala;
• Ukuqaqanjelwa rhoqo okanye iicramps kwimisipha, ngakumbi ezandleni nasezinyaweni;
• Ilizwi elingqindilili kunye nobunzima ekuthetheni kakhulu;
• Ubunzima ekugcineni imeko echanekileyo;
• Kunzima ukuthetha, ukuginya okanye ukuphefumla.

I-Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ibonakala kuphela kwii-motor neurons, kwaye ke, umntu, nokuba ekhula ukukhubazeka, uyakwazi ukugcina zonke izivamvo zakhe zokujoja, ukunambitha, ukubamba, ukubona nokuva.

Uxilongo lwenziwa njani

Ukuxilongwa akukho lula kwaye, ke, ugqirha unokwenza iimvavanyo ezininzi, ezinje ngecomputer tomography okanye imaging resonance imaging, ukulawula ezinye izifo ezinokubangela ukunqongophala kwamandla ngaphambi kokurhanela i-ALS, enje nge-myasthenia gravis.

Emva kokuchongwa kwe-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ixesha lokuphila lesigulana ngasinye liyahluka phakathi kweminyaka emi-3 ukuya kwesi-5, kodwa kuye kwakho iimeko zokuphila ixesha elide, njengoStephen Hawking owayehlala nesi sifo ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-50.

Izizathu ezinokubangela i-ALS

Oonobangela be-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis abakaqondwa ngokupheleleyo. Ezinye iimeko zesi sifo zibangelwa kukuqokelelwa kweeproteni ezinetyhefu kwii-neurons ezilawula izihlunu, kwaye oku kwenzeka rhoqo kumadoda aneminyaka ephakathi kwama-40 nama-50 eminyaka. Kodwa kwiimeko ezimbalwa, i-ALS inokubangelwa sisiphene semfuza, esigqitha kubazali iye kubantwana.

Unyango lwenziwa njani

Unyango lwe-ALS kufuneka lukhokelwe ngugqirha wemithambo-luvo kwaye, ngesiqhelo, luqala ngokusetyenziswa kwesiyobisi iRiluzole, esinceda ukunciphisa izilonda ezibangelwa zii-neurons, kulibazise inkqubela yesi sifo.

Ukongeza, xa esi sifo sifunyenwe kwinqanaba laso lokuqala, ugqirha unokucebisa nangonyango lonyango. Kwiimeko eziphambili, ii-analgesics, ezinjengeTramadol, zinokusetyenziselwa ukunciphisa ukungonwabi kunye nentlungu ebangelwa kukonakala kwemisipha.

Njengokuba isifo siqhubeka, ukukhubazeka kunwenwela kwezinye izihlunu kwaye ekugqibeleni kuchaphazele izihlunu zokuphefumla, kufuna ukuba kulaliswe esibhedlele ngokuphefumla ngoncedo lwezixhobo.

I-physiotherapy yenziwe njani

I-Physiotherapy ye-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis inokusetyenziswa kwemithambo ephucula ukujikeleza kwegazi, ukubambezela ukutshatyalaliswa kwezihlunu ezibangelwa sesi sifo.

Ukongeza, i-physiotherapist inokucebisa kwaye ifundise ukusetyenziswa kwesitulo esinamavili, umzekelo, ukuququzelela imisebenzi yemihla ngemihla yesigulana nge-ALS.
