Mikwano bulijjo banbuuza ebibuuzo wansi mu kiseera ekirwadde kya COVID-19, katuyige ebisingawo ku oxygen mu musaayi ne... ekipima omukka gwa pulse : .
Okujjula omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi kye ki?
Okujjula kwa oxygen mu musaayi gwe muwendo gwa oxygen eyesibye ku hemoglobin mu butoffaali obumyufu. Kitera okulagibwa nga ebitundu ku kikumi era kikulu ekiraga obulamu n’obulamu obulungi. Emiwendo gya oxygen mu musaayi egya bulijjo gitera okuva ku bitundu 95 ne 100 ku buli 100. Oxygen okujjula wansi w’ebitundu 90 ku buli 100 kijja kuba kabonero akalaga embeera y’obulamu eyaliwo.
Lwaki tusaana okupima oxygen saturation mu musaayi awaka mu kiseera kya COVID-19?
Okupima omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi awaka mu kiseera kya COVID-19 kiyinza okuyamba okuzuula obubonero obusooka obulaga nti omuntu alina obulwadde n’okuyamba okulondoola enkola y’obulwadde. Omukka gwa oxygen omutono guyinza okulaga obwetaavu bw’okujjanjabibwa n’okuyamba okuzuula abo abali mu bulabe bw’okufuna ebika by’obulwadde obw’amaanyi ennyo. Okulondoola emiwendo gya oxygen saturation nakyo kiyinza okuyamba okuzuula ddi lwe kyetaagisa obujjanjabi obw’okugatta oxygen okukakasa nti ebitundu by’omubiri bifuna oxygen mu ngeri entuufu.
Ani alina okussa essira ku... okulondoola omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi ? Engeri y'okukolamu okulondoola omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi?
Abantu abalina endwadde z’amawuggwe ezitawona, gamba nga asima, emphysema, n’obulwadde bw’amawuggwe obutawona (COPD), n’abantu abalina obulwadde bw’okusannyalala mu tulo balina okussa essira ku kulondoola omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi gwabwe.
Omuwendo gwa oxygen mu musaayi gusobola okulondoolebwa nga tukozesa a pulse oximeter , nga kino kyuma kitono ekikwata ku nkomerero y’olugalo ne kipima omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi. Ekyuma kino kipima omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi nga gumasamasa ekitangaala okuyita mu ngalo n’okupima obungi bw’ekitangaala ekiyingizibwa.
Ekipima omukka gw’omukka (pulse oximeter) kikola nga kyaka obuuma obutono bubiri obw’ekitangaala okuyita mu lususu n’okupima obungi bwa oxygen mu musaayi. Olwo amawulire gano galagibwa ku kifaananyi kya digito.
Pulse oximetry nkola ya bujjanjabi nkulu nnyo, kubanga esobola okuyamba okuzuula n’okulondoola embeera ez’enjawulo. Kitera okukozesebwa mu bisenge by’abalwadde ab’amangu n’ebifo eby’abalwadde abayi okulondoola abalwadde abalina obuzibu mu kussa, gamba ng’abo abalina asima oba COPD. Era esobola okukozesebwa okulondoola abalwadde abalongooseddwa, wamu n’abo abajjanjabwa eddagala oba obujjanjabi obw’amasannyalaze.
Pulse oximetry era ekozesebwa okulondoola omukka gwa oxygen mu baana abaakazaalibwa, wamu n’okuzuula obulwadde bw’okusannyalala mu tulo. Era esobola okukozesebwa okuzuula omutima obutakola bulungi, n’okuyamba okuzuula embeera ng’okukendeera kw’omusaayi oba obutaba na mukka gwa mukka.
Okukozesa ekipima pulse oximeter kyangu nnyo. Omulwadde amala kuteeka lunwe lwe munda mu kyuma kino olwo ekyuma ekyo kijja kupima omukka gwa oxygen mu musaayi. Ebivuddemu olwo biragibwa ku kifaananyi kya digito.
