Major clinical features of ischemic heart disease

Major clinical features of ischemic heart disease is the very important thing of every human body.so all person should know the Major clinical features of ischemic heart disease..

The typical patient with angina is a man older than 50 years or a woman older than 60 years of age who complains of chest discomfort, usually described as heaviness, pressure, squeezing, smothering, or choking, and only rarely as frank pain.<<learn more.

When the patient is asked to localize the sensation, he or she will typically place their hands over the sternum, sometimes, with a clenched first, to indicate a squeezing, central, substernal discomfort. Angina is usually crescendo-decrescendo in nature, typically lasts 2-5 minutes, and can radiate to either shoulder and to both arms. It can also arise in or radiate to the back, intercapular region, the root of the neck, jaw, teeth, and epigastrium.

Although episodes of angina are typically caused by exertion (eg. exercise, hurrying, or sexual activity) or emotion (eg. Stress, anger, fright, or frustration) and are relieved by rest, they may also occur at rest and while the patient is recumbent. Nocturnal angina may be due to episodic tachycardia, diminished oxygenation as the respiratory pattern changes during sleep, or expansion of the intrathoracic blood volume that occurs with recumbancy. The threshold for the development of angina pictures may vary by time of day and emotional state. Many patients report a fixed threshold for angina, which occurs predictably at a certain level of activity, such as climbing two flights of stairs at a normal pace. In other patients, the threshold for angina may vary considerably within any given day or day two day.<<learn more

Prevention of carcinoma cervix







a.       Primary prevention : It involves identifying the causal factor and eliminating or preventing those from exerting their effects.

First of all identifying ‘high risk’ woman and men. It is indeed an uphill task to prevent these epidemiological factors. However cancer consciousness, propagandas, proper health education of the population , especially amongst the poor socioeconomic group could be important steps in prevention.

A healthy lifestyle. Which includes eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, avoidance of alcohol and adequate physical activity is protected  for many cancers like carcinoma cervix.
Use of a condom during early intercourse , raising the age of marriage, and of first birth , limitation of family, maintenance of local hygiene and effective therapy of STDs may be positive steps in prevention. Vaccination against human papilloma virus for cervical cancer shows promising results.

b.      Secondary prevention :  It involves identifying and treating the disease earlier in most treatable stage. This is done by screening procedures . The strategy is however , not expected to lower the incidence of cancer cervix, but it can certainly minimize the cancer death through early detection.more details

Risking factors of cervical cancer


·   
    
  •  HPV infection: Human papilloma virus (HPV) is a group of viruses that infect the  cervix.     Chronic HPV infection causes most of the cervical cancer in women, especially person to person through sexual contact. Most adults have been infected with HPV at some time in their lives, but most infections clear up on their own. Some types of HPV can cause changes to cells in the cervix. If these changes are found early, cervical cancer can be prevented by removing or killing the changed cells before they can become cancer cells.

  •  Multiple sexual partner: Women who have many  partners have a higher risk of developing cervical cancer. Also, a woman who has had sex with a man who has had many sexual partners may be at higher risk developing cervical cancer. In both cases, the risk of developing cervical cancer is higher because these women have a higher risk of HPV infection.

  •  Early marriage : In Bangladesh, early age of marriage is one of the important risk factors of cervical cancer. It is more common in rural communities. However, the situation is improving.

  •  Multiple pregnancy : Studies suggest that giving birth to many children (5 or more) may increase the risk of cervical cancer among women with HPV infection.

  •  Poor genital hygiene : Lack of genital hygiene may increase risk of developing cervical cancer.

  •  Smoking : Among women who are infected with HPV, smoking cigarettes slightly increases the risk of cervical cancer.more details
