High Prevalence of Food Allergies among Children Younger to Boost Demand for Allergy Di... - 0 views

  •  
    Many people suffer from allergies. In fact, there are millions of people who suffer from allergic reactions to a variety of substances and foods on a daily basis. For instance, , according to the study, "A cross-sectional study of the prevalence of food allergies among children younger than ages 14 years in a Beijing urban region", published in the journal Allergy & Asthma Proceedings, in January 2019, the total prevalence of probable food allergies in children aged less than 14 years of age in the Beijing urban area was 3.2%. Unfortunately, not everyone who suffers from allergies is aware of their condition or the treatments available to them. For this reason, it is important to seek proper allergy diagnostic and treatment as soon as possible in order to prevent the conditions that can lead to further complications if left untreated. To accurately assess whether or not you have a food allergy, your physician will likely: * Ask you a series of questions designed to determine your sensitivities * Perform a full physical exam * Have you maintained a detailed diary of previous symptoms and potential triggers * Have blood tests performed * Have skin tests performed * You might even be required to take a blood test for confirmation Once you know you do have allergies, your medical professional will then be able to correctly diagnose them. If your symptoms are consistent with food allergies, doctors will most likely recommend an avoidance diet in order to prevent further food allergies or other reactions. They may also prescribe daily pills to control your symptoms or provide an antihistamine to help reduce your histamine production.

Inadequate Postoperative Pain Management is a Major Issue in Hospitals in Germany - 0 views

  •  
    Effective postoperative pain management is a key component of the medical care of every surgical patient. Inadequate treatment of postoperative pain in hospital is still a common complaint by patients in Germany. Improper pain management, while being unethical, can lead to increased mortality or morbidity. During any surgical procedure, patients have some level of pain. It may not be intolerable to them, but for those who are undergoing a major surgery, pain can be severely uncomfortable and interfere with daily activities and social interactions. It has been estimated that up to one third of all surgical procedures will cause pain to occur, especially those performed in the upper body. These may include breast reduction, breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, lumpectomies, and hysterectomies. Postoperative pain is often the result of the trauma caused by the surgical procedure itself. The trauma may be caused by a misalignment of vertebrae, or by the use of anesthesia. The success or failure of post-operative pain management depends on the type of surgery performed, the extent of the injury and the type of sedative, narcotic, muscle relaxant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory medication used, and any other medications taken. The most commonly prescribed medications during the period immediately after a surgical procedure are anti-anxiety medications such as benzodiazepines (atypical and non-atypical), muscle relaxants (pentasa, tramadol, nifedipine, guazepam, and lofexidene), antidepressants (fluoxetine, paroxetine, anafranil, and fluoxetine), opiates, nitrous oxide, and vasoconstrictors.
