Ngamabali amaninzi njengoko ebonisa izibonelelo zokubaleka, ngamanye amaxesha sidibana nelinye elithetha into eyahlukileyo, njengeendaba zakutsha nje zendlela iimbaleki ezimbini ezibonakala zifanelekile ezingama-30 ezibhubhileyo ngexesha lomdyarho we-Rock 'n' Roll. Raleigh, NC, kwimpelaveki ephelileyo.

Amagosa ohlanga akakhange akhuphe unobangela wokufa osemthethweni, kodwa u-Umesh Gidwani, MD, inkosi ye-Cardiac Critical Care kwisibhedlele i-Mount Sinai kwisiXeko sase-New York, uqikelela ukuba ukubanjwa kwentliziyo kukhokelele ekufeni kwabo ngequbuliso. Izehlo zoku zenzeke ziphezulu emadodeni kunabasetyhini, kodwa kunjalo zincinci kakhulu-malunga ne-1 kwi-100,000. "Amathuba okusweleka ngelixa ubaleka umdyarho weembaleki aphantse afane nokubafumana ingozi ebulalayo yesithuthuthu," utshilo uGidwani, obiza le "njengengozi engaqhelekanga."

Iimeko ezimbini eziphambili ezinokuthi zikhokelele kwezi ziganeko zingalindelekanga, uyachaza. Enye ibizwa ngokuba yi-hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, kulapho izihlunu zentliziyo zijiye khona, kuthintela ukuhamba kwegazi kuye kuwo wonke umzimba. Esinye sischemic (okanye ischemic) isifo sentliziyo, esibangelwa kukuhla kokuhamba kwegazi kwimithambo ebonelela ngentliziyo. Oku kwenzeka ngokubanzi kubantu abadala okanye abo banembali yentsapho yesifo senhliziyo. Imikhwa emibi yokuphila, njengokutshaya, okanye ukuba neengxaki ze-cholesterol nayo inokunyusa umngcipheko wokugqibela.

Ngelishwa, akusoloko kukho iimpawu ekufuneka uzijongile. "Intlungu yesifuba okanye ukungonwabi, ukubila okungaqhelekanga, kunye nokuva iintliziyo ngendlela engaqhelekanga zizimpawu zesilumkiso, kodwa ezi azisoloko zenzeka ngaphambi kokubhubha kwentliziyo ngesiquphe," ulumkisa uGidwani. Nangona kungekho zikhokelo ekufuneka uzijongile xa usebenza, ungacela ugqirha wakho ukuba akuvavanye kwangaphambili, ukuba unesizathu sokukhathazeka.

"I-EKG iyakukwazi ukuthatha xa kukho into engalunganga ngentliziyo yakho," utshilo uGidwani. Nokuba akukho nto ingalunganga kwithikitha yakho, iimvavanyo ezikhethekileyo zikhona ukuphanda ngakumbi. Kodwa iingxaki zokuba ungumgqatswa kwezi ntlobo zovavanyo zincinci. "Isigameko sokufa kwentliziyo ngesiquphe sisezantsi kakhulu kulutsha kangangokuba ayincedi ukubonwa ngokubanzi," utshilo uGidwani, esithi le mvavanyo iyacetyiswa ukuba unembali yosapho, wawunezinhlungu esifubeni ngaphambili, umntu otshayayo, okanye unezinye iimpawu.

Ngokuqhelekileyo iimbaleki kucingelwa ukuba zisempilweni. Ukuba uqeqeshe ngokufanelekileyo kwaye ulungile kugqirha wakho wokhathalelo oluphambili okanye ugqirha wentliziyo, kuya kufuneka ulungele ukuhamba umgama.
