Hepatitis A, which inflames the liver, is an acutely affecting virus that occurs in young pediatric patients with symptoms and in adult patients if symptoms develop. In the case of hepatitis B and hepatitis C, these are chronic rather than acute, they last for six months or more than a few years, and in most cases they are asymptomatic, and reportedly the only way to detect them is It’s through a blood test. Dr. Zuly Plácido Damión is a gastroenterologist at the Hepatology Department of Rebagliati Hospital in EsSalud. He explained that recovery for hepatitis A patients includes staying rested, practicing good hygiene, avoiding fats, eating healthily, keeping dishes separate and avoiding contagions. For hepatitis B and C, follow general care measures and don’t gain weight, be physically active, limit alcohol consumption, and get vaccinated.

Diabetic coma is a fatal complication. Eating high amounts of sugar over a long period of time can cause the body (kidneys, heart, liver, etc.) to collapse. As Dr. Helard Manrique, an endocrinologist at the Ona Clinic, warns, the person will become dehydrated (arrive dry) and may suffer cardiac arrest. He said that the mortality rate of diabetic coma when arriving at the hospital is 5% to 10%, and the mortality rate before arriving at the hospital is 90%. What should patients do after a diabetic coma? You must think carefully and learn to eat, sugar is very dangerous for diabetics. You should also be physically active, take the right medications, see your doctor every 15 days until your condition returns to normal, and use a blood glucose meter. On another topic, this week’s “healthy number” is 30, which means that almost 30% of non-melanotic skin cancer deaths are caused by UV radiation from working outdoors.
Dr. Liliana Gonzáles, a nephrologist at Almenara Hospital’s Transplant Service, explained that after a kidney transplant, the patient will enter the post-operative period where a team of health professionals will monitor his vital signs and wait for him to urinate. I wish you peace. He said that due to the condition of the kidneys, the patient had taken in very little water for many years, and it was difficult to drink water normally after the transplant. Doctors were worried that the kidneys would become dehydrated. Transplant recipients have a monitoring notebook in which they must write down their blood pressure and daily urine output, and their immune systems are also monitored. Another talking point is that 110 is today’s “healthy number,” which means that if adults aged 40 to 85 or older exercised for 10 minutes a day, approximately 110,000 deaths could be prevented.
We referred questions to Dr. Edwin Chambergo, a pulmonologist at the Auna Clinic, who told us that patients after treatment must continue their recovery through good eating habits, plenty of fluids, and prevention of illness (which is transmitted through the respiratory tract), Avoid going to crowded confined spaces and wear a mask to avoid getting infected. He noted that breathing exercises are only suitable for patients who have experienced complications during pneumonia. On the other hand, 45 is a “healthy number” today. What does it mean? According to a recently published systematic review, the mortality rate among patients infected with multidrug-resistant organisms in Latin America and the Caribbean between 2000 and March 2022 was 45%.
