Tynor Rib Belt
Rib belt is applied to the thoracic and upper abdominal region to compress and bind the rib cage during rib fractures and postoperative care, while allowing sufficient flexibility for comfortable breathing.
Extra porous.
With splinting pad.
No buckling or rolling over.
Controlled compression.
Tynor Rib Belt Features
Light weight and thin construction, does not peep through the clothes
improves patient compliance.
Extra porous webbing improves ventilation and comfort of the patient.
Broad hook and loop tape panel offers better holding and size adjust ability.
Optimal compression, tones up abdominal muscles following surgery, CS or delivery.
Special nylon reeves prevent rolling over of belt.
Tynor Rib Belt Measurements
Measure circumference around the chest.
The most common MTHFR mutation is called the MTHFR C677T mutation
Another common mutation is called MTHFR A1298C
Having only one mutation, ie, being heterozygous, is, from a medical perspective, irrelevant. Even when 2 MTHFR mutations are present (eg, 2 C677T mutations, or one C677T mutation and one A1298C mutation)
Although these mutations do impair the regulation of homocysteine, adequate folate levels essentially
“cancel out” this defect.
Regardless of whether you have an MTHFR mutation in both genes or not, the treatment for elevated homocysteine is the same—dietary intervention and supplementation
with folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12
Overall, evidence from these studies indicates that, so long as the homocysteine level is normal, MTHFR mutations do not significantly increase the risk of heart attack or stroke
Studies investigating the association of MTHFR mutations and venous blood clots have been inconsistent, with some studies showing a slight association, but most studies
have not shown any association
CONCLUSION: Determination of reverse T3 levels may be a valuable and simple aid to improve identification of patients with myocardial infarction who are at high risk of subsequent mortality.
