X-reyi zeCOPD

Isifo esinganyangekiyo semiphunga (COPD) sisifo semiphunga esinzulu esibandakanya iimeko zokuphefumla ezahlukeneyo.

Ezona meko zixhaphakileyo zeCOPD zi-emphysema kunye ne-bronchitis engapheliyo. I-Emphysema sisifo esenzakalisa iingxowa zomoya ezincinci emiphungeni. I-bronchitis engapheliyo sisifo esibangela ukuba iindlela zomoya zihlale zicaphuka kwaye zitshiswa yimveliso yencindi eyandayo.

Abantu abane-COPD bahlala benengxaki yokuphefumla, bavelise uninzi lwe-mucus, baziva bexinekile esifubeni, kwaye banezinye iimpawu kuxhomekeka kubukhali bemeko yabo.

Ukuba ugqirha wakho ukrokrela ukuba unayo i-COPD, uya kuthi uhambe kwiimvavanyo ezimbalwa ezahlukeneyo ukunceda ukufumanisa isifo. Omnye wabo X-ray esifubeni.

I-X-ray yesifuba iyakhawuleza, ingangenisi kwaye ayibuhlungu. Isebenzisa amaza ombane ukwenza imifanekiso yemiphunga, intliziyo, uvalo, kunye neembambo. Kuphela lunye lweemvavanyo ezininzi ezisetyenziselwa ukufumanisa isifo seCOPD.

Imifanekiso yeempawu zeCOPD

Ukulungiselela i-X-ray yesifuba

Awudingi ukwenza lukhulu ukulungiselela iX-reyi yakho. Uya kunxiba ilokhwe yasesibhedlele endaweni yeempahla eziqhelekileyo. Ifaskoti ekhokelayo inokubonelelwa ukukhusela amalungu akho okuzala kwimitha esetyenziselwa ukuthatha iX-reyi.

Kuya kufuneka ususe nabuphi na ubucwebe obunokuphazamisa uhlolo.

IX-ray yesifuba inokwenziwa ngelixa umile okanye ulele. Kuxhomekeka kwiimpawu zakho. Ngokwesiqhelo, i-X-ray yesifuba yenziwa ngelixa umile.

Ukuba ugqirha wakho ukhathazekile ukuba unamanzi ajikeleze imiphunga yakho, ebizwa ngokuba yintsilelo, banokufuna ukubona imifanekiso eyongezelelweyo yemiphunga yakho ngelixa ulele ngecala.

Kodwa ngesiqhelo kukho imifanekiso emibini ethathiweyo: omnye usuka ngaphambili kwaye omnye uvela ecaleni. Imifanekiso iyafumaneka kwangoko ukuze ivavanywe ngugqirha.

Yintoni eza kubonisa iX-ray?

Olunye lweempawu zeCOPD ezinokubonisa iX-reyi yimiphunga exineneyo. Oku kuthetha ukuba imiphunga ibonakala inkulu kunesiqhelo. Kwakhona, uvalo lusenokubonakala lusezantsi kwaye lucaba ngaphezu kwesiqhelo, kwaye intliziyo ingakhangeleka inde kunesiqhelo.

I-X-ray kwi-COPD ayinakubonakalisa ubuninzi ukuba imeko i-bronchitis engapheliyo. Kodwa nge-emphysema, ezinye iingxaki zemiphunga zinokubonwa kwiX-reyi.

Umzekelo, iX-reyi inokuveza i-bullae. Kwimiphunga, i-bullae yipokotho yomoya eyenza kufutshane nomphezulu wemiphunga. I-Bullae inokuba nkulu kakhulu (ngaphezulu kwe-1 cm) kwaye ithathe indawo ebalulekileyo emiphungeni.

Ii-bullae ezincinci zibizwa ngokuba ziibhlowu. Ngokwesiqhelo azibonwa kwisifuba iX-reyi ngenxa yesayizi yazo encinci.

Ukuba i-bullae okanye i-bleb iyaqhekeka, umoya ungaphuma ngaphandle kwemiphunga ibangele ukuba iwe. Oku kwaziwa njenge pneumothorax, kwaye kufuna unyango olukhawulezileyo. Iimpawu zihlala zibukhali esifubeni kunye nokwanda okanye ubunzima bokuphefumla.

Kuthekani ukuba ayisiyi-COPD?

Ukungonwabi kwesifuba kunokubangelwa zezinye iimeko ngaphandle kweCOPD. Ukuba i-X-ray yesifuba sakho ayibonisi zimpawu zibonakalayo zeCOPD, ugqirha wakho uyakuyivavanya neminye imiba enokwenzeka.

Intlungu yesifuba, ukuphefumla nzima, kunye nokunciphisa amandla okwenza umthambo kunokuba ziimpawu zengxaki yemiphunga, kodwa zisenokuba ziimpawu zentliziyo.

I-X-ray yesifuba inokubonelela ngolwazi oluxabisekileyo malunga nentliziyo yakho kunye nemithambo yegazi, njengobungakanani bentliziyo, ubungakanani benqanawa yegazi, imiqondiso yolwelo ejikeleze intliziyo, kunye nokubala okanye ukuqina kwezivalo kunye nemithambo yegazi.

Inokuveza iimbambo ezaphukileyo okanye ezinye iingxaki ezinamathambo ngaphakathi nangapha esifubeni, zonke ezinokubangela iintlungu esifubeni.

Nguwuphi umahluko phakathi kwe-X-ray kunye ne-CT scan?

IX-ray yesifuba yenye yeendlela zokubonelela ugqirha wakho ngemifanekiso yentliziyo yakho nemiphunga. Iskena esenziwe ngekhompyutha se-tomography (CT) sesinye isixhobo esiqhele uku-odolwa kubantu abaneengxaki zokuphefumla.

Ngokungafaniyo ne-X-ray esemgangathweni, enika umfanekiso othe cwaka, ubukhulu becala, ii-CT scan zinika uthotho lwemifanekiso ye-X-ray ethathwe kwii-engile ezahlukeneyo. Inika oogqirha icandelo elinqamlezileyo ukujonga amalungu kunye nezinye izicwili ezithambileyo.

Iskena se-CT sinika umbono ocacileyo kune-X-ray eqhelekileyo. Ingasetyenziselwa ukukhangela amahlwili egazi emiphungeni, engenziwa sisifuba X-ray. Iskena se-CT sinokukhetha iinkcukacha ezincinci, zichonge iingxaki, njengomhlaza, ngaphambili kakhulu.

Uvavanyo lokucinga luhlala lusetyenziselwa ukulandela nakuphi na ukungaqheleki okubonwe ngaphakathi kwimiphunga kwisifuba seX-ray.

Akuqhelekanga ukuba ugqirha wakho akhuthaze i-X-ray yesifuba kunye ne-CT scan ngokuxhomekeke kwiimpawu zakho. IX-ray yesifuba ihlala isenziwa kuqala kuba iyakhawuleza kwaye iyafikeleleka kwaye inikezela ngolwazi oluluncedo ukuze wenze izigqibo ngokukhawuleza malunga nokhathalelo lwakho.

Inqanaba leCOPD

I-COPD yahlulahlulwe ngokwamanqanaba amane: ithambile, imodareyitha, inzima kwaye inzima kakhulu. Amanqanaba amiselwe ngokusekwe kwindibaniselwano yokusebenza kwemiphunga kunye neempawu.

Inqanaba lenani linikezelwa ngokusekwe kwimiphunga yakho, kokukhona liya linyuka inani lemiphunga. Umsebenzi wemiphunga usekwe kumthamo wakho wokuphefumla onyanzelekileyo ngomzuzwana omnye (FEV1), umlinganiselo wobungakanani bomoya onokuwukhupha kwimiphunga yakho ngomzuzwana omnye.

Inqanaba leleta linikezelwa ngokusekwe kwindlela iimpawu zakho ezibuchaphazela ngayo ubomi bakho bemihla ngemihla kunye nokuba zingaphi ii-flare-ups zeCOPD onazo kunyaka ophelileyo. Iqela A linezona mpawu zincinci kunye nokuqaqamba okumbalwa. Iqela D linezona mpawu kunye namafutha.

Ikhweshine, njengesixhobo sovavanyo lweCOPD (CAT), isetyenziselwa ukuvavanya ukuba iimpawu zakho zeCOPD zibuchaphazela njani ubomi bakho.

Indlela elula yokucinga ngamanqanaba zezi zilandelayo. Kukho umahluko ngaphakathi kwenkqubo yokuhlela:

• Iqela 1 A. I-COPD elula nge-FEV1 malunga neepesenti ezingama-80 eziqhelekileyo. Zimbalwa iimpawu kubomi bemihla ngemihla kunye ne-flare-ups ezimbalwa.
• Iqela 2 B. I-COPD ephakathi i-FEV1 phakathi kwama-50 nama-80 eepesenti zesiqhelo.
• Iqela 3 C. I-COPD ebukhali ene-FEV1 phakathi kwe-30 kunye ne-50 yepesenti yesiqhelo.
• Iqela 4 D. I-COPD enzima kakhulu ene-FEV1 engaphantsi kweSigaba 3 okanye nge-FEV1 efanayo njengeSigaba 3, kodwa ngamanqanaba eoksijini egazi asezantsi, nawo. Iimpawu kunye neengxaki zeCOPD zichaphazela kakhulu umgangatho wobomi.

Inkqubo yokuhlela yenzelwe ukukhokela oogqirha ngendlela yokuphatha kakuhle abaguli ngokusekwe kwimiphunga kunye neempawu zabo- hayi enye okanye enye.

Yise kude

I-X-ray yesifuba yodwa ayinakuqinisekisa ukuxilongwa kweCOPD, kodwa inokubonelela ngolwazi oluluncedo malunga nemiphunga nentliziyo yakho.

Uphononongo lomsebenzi wemiphunga luyimfuneko ekwenzeni uxilongo oluthembekileyo, kunye nokuvavanywa ngononophelo kweempawu zakho kunye nefuthe leempawu zakho kubomi bakho.

Zombini i-X-ray zesifuba kunye ne-CT scan zibandakanya imitha ethile, ke qiniseka ukuba uxelele ugqirha wakho ukuba unazo ezinye ii-X-ray okanye i-CT scan kutshanje.

Ukuba unemibuzo malunga nokufumana i-X-ray okanye i-CT scan, okanye malunga naluphi na uvavanyo okanye unyango olunxulumene neCOPD, unganqikazi ukuthetha nodokotela wakho.
