Ngaba Umsi Osephondweni Uyingozi Njengokutshaya Icuba?

Umxholo

• Iziphumo kubantu abadala
• Izifo zentliziyo
• Izifo zokuphefumla
• Umhlaza wemiphunga
• Eminye imihlaza
• Iziphumo kubantwana
• Umgca wezantsi

Umsi otshaywayo ubhekisa kwimisi ekhutshwa ngabantu abatshayayo:

• imidiza
• imibhobho
• iicigar
• ezinye iimveliso zecuba

Ukutshaya ngokwakho kunye nomsi otshayayo kubangela iziphumo ezibi empilweni. Ngelixa ukutshaya ngokuthe ngqo kubi, bobabini baneziphumo ezibi ezifanayo kwezempilo.

Umsi otshaywayo ubizwa ngokuba:

• umsi womsinga osecaleni
• umsi wokusingqongileyo
• umsi ongadibaniyo
• umsi ongalindelekanga

Abantu abangatshayiyo abatshaya umsi wecuba labo bayachatshazelwa ziikhemikhali ezikuloo msi.

Ngokuka, kukho ngaphezulu kweekhemikhali ezingama-7 000 ezifumaneka kumsi wecuba. Kukonke, ubuncinci abangama-69 banomhlaza. Ngaphezulu kwama-250 ayingozi nangezinye iindlela.

Ulwelo olufana negazi nomchamo kubantu abangatshayiyo lunokuvavanya intshongo, icarbon monoxide, kunye ne-formaldehyde. Okukhona usiva umsi womsi wefeni, kokukhona usengozini yokungenisa la machiza ayityhefu.

Ukuvezwa komsi otshayayo kwenzeka naphina apho umntu anokuthi atshaye. Ezi ndawo zinokubandakanya:

• imivalo
• iimoto
• Amakhaya
• amaqela
• iindawo zolonwabo
• iivenkile zokutyela
• iindawo zokusebenzela

Njengoko uluntu lufunda ngakumbi malunga neziphumo eziyingozi zokutshaya, amaqondo okutshaya ngokubanzi ayaqhubeka ukwehla phakathi kolutsha nakubantu abadala. Nangona kunjalo, ngokutsho, i-58 yezigidi zabantu baseMelika abangatshayiyo basesichengeni sokutshaya.

Ngokubanzi, kuqikelelwa ukuba i-1.2 yezigidi ukusweleka ngaphambi kwexesha ngonyaka kunxulumene nomsi obhemayo kwihlabathi liphela.

Le yinkxalabo enkulu yezempilo enokuthi ichaphazele abantu abadala kunye nabantwana abachanabeke kumsi wecuba.

Ekuphela kwendlela yokuphelisa ubungozi kukuhlala kude nomsi wecuba ngokupheleleyo.

Iziphumo kubantu abadala

Ukutshaya umsi womntu oqheleneyo kuxhaphakile kubantu abadala.

Unokusebenza nabanye abatshayayo abakungqongileyo, okanye unokuvezwa ngexesha lokuzihlaziya okanye lokuzonwabisa. Unokuhlala nelungu losapho elitshayayo.

Kubantu abadala, umsi otshaywayo unokubangela:

Izifo zentliziyo

Abantu abangatshayiyo abasemngciphekweni wokutshaya, basengozini enkulu yesifo sentliziyo kwaye basemngciphekweni omkhulu wokubethwa sistroke.

Kwakhona, ukubhengeza umsi kunokubangela iimeko ezikhoyo zexinzelelo oluphezulu lwegazi zibe mandundu.

Izifo zokuphefumla

Abantu abadala banokuba nesifo sombefu kwaye babe nezifo zokuphefumla rhoqo. Ukuba sele unesi sifo sombefu, ukuba phakathi komsi wecuba kunokwenza ukuba iimpawu zakho zibe mandundu.

Umhlaza wemiphunga

Umsi otshaywayo onokubangela umhlaza wemiphunga kubantu abadala abangatshayi ngokuthe ngqo iimveliso zecuba.

Ukuhlala okanye ukusebenza nomntu otshayayo kunokunyusa umngcipheko womhlaza wemiphunga wakho kangangoko.

Eminye imihlaza

Phakathi kwezinto ezinokubakho kubandakanya:

• umhlaza webele
• Ileukemia
• lymphoma

Umhlaza wesisu sinus unokwenzeka.

Iziphumo kubantwana

Ngelixa ukubhengeza umsi oqhelekileyo ophuma komnye umntu kungakhokelela kwimicimbi eyahlukeneyo yezempilo kubantu abadala, abantwana basesichengeni sokufumana umsi wecuba. Kungenxa yokuba imizimba kunye namalungu abo asekwinqanaba lokukhula.

Abantwana abanalo ilizwi xa kufikwa ekujikelezeni umsi wecuba. Oku kwenza ukunciphisa umngcipheko onxulumene noko kube nzima nangakumbi.

Iziphumo zempilo yomsi otshaywayo ebantwaneni zibandakanya:

• Iziphumo zempilo yemiphunga. Oku kubandakanya ukulibaziseka kophuhliso lwemiphunga kunye nesifuba.
• Izifo zokuphefumula. Abantwana abachaphazeleka kumsi womsi otshaywayo banosulelo rhoqo. I-pneumonia kunye ne-bronchitis zezona zixhaphakileyo.
• Usulelo lwendlebe. Ezi zihlala zenzeka kwindlebe esembindini kwaye zihlala zihlala kwindalo.
• Ukunyuka kweempawu zesifuba, ezinje ngokukhohlela kunye nokuvutha. Abantwana abanesifo sombefu banokukwazi ukuhlaselwa sisifo sombefu xa bevezwa kukutshaya okuqhelekileyo.
• Ukubanda rhoqo okanye iimpawu ezinje ngesifuba. Oku kubandakanya ukukhwehlela, ukuvutha, kunye nokuphefumla okufutshane, kunye nokuthimla kunye nempumlo.
• Amathumba ebongo. Ezi zinokukhula kamva ebomini, nazo.

Iintsana zisesichengeni sokutshaya ngenxa yokuba zinokubangela ukufa kweentsana ngesiquphe (SIDS).

Abafazi abakhulelweyo abachaphazeleka kumsi otshayayo banokuhambisa nabantwana abanesisindo sokuzalwa esisezantsi.

Uqikelelo lokuba kubhubhe ama-65,000 kubantwana abanxulumene nomsi otshaywayo. Njengomzali, enye yeendlela ezilungileyo onokuthi uthintele ukutshaya umsi womntwana wakho kukuyeka ukutshaya ngokwakho.

Umgca wezantsi

Akunyanzelekanga ukuba utshaye umdiza ngokwakho ukuze ufumane iziphumo ezibi zempilo zokutshaya.

Ngenxa yeziphumo ezininzi zempilo yomsi wecuba, ukuthintela kuya kusijongwa njengelungelo lomntu.

Kungenxa yoko le nto uninzi lwamazwe lumisele imithetho ethintela umsi kwiindawo eziqhelekileyo, ezinjengeevenkile zokutyela, ngaphandle kwezikolo nasezibhedlele, nakwiindawo zokudlala.

Ngaphandle kokumiselwa kwemithetho yokungatshayi, ekuphela kwendlela yokukhusela ngokupheleleyo abo bangatshayiyo kumsi wecuba labo kukuyeka ukutshaya.

Ukuba uhlala kwindlu enamacala amaninzi, umsi wecuba ungahamba phakathi kwamagumbi namagumbi. Ukuba ngaphandle kwindawo evulekileyo, okanye ukuvula iifestile kwindawo etshaya ngaphakathi, akuncedi nganto xa umntu etshaya.

Ukuba ujikeleze umsi wecuba, ekuphela kwendlela onokukuphelisa ngokupheleleyo ukubhengeza kukushiya indawo echaphazelekayo ngokupheleleyo.

Ingxaki ngokwe, nangona kunjalo, kukuba uninzi lokutshaya ngomsi owenzekileyo kwenzeka ngaphakathi emakhaya nakwiindawo zomsebenzi.

Kwiimeko ezinjalo, phantse akunakwenzeka ukuthintela umsi wecuba njengomntu ongatshayiyo. Oku kuyinyani ngakumbi kubantwana abanabazali abatshayayo ngaphakathi ezindlwini nasezimotweni.

Ukuyeka ukutshaya yeyona ndlela ibalaseleyo yokukhusela abo bangatshayiyo kumsi wecuba.
