A new chapter of my life begins..Commercial Break..

Ada sikit info to share with..
"briefly about how the heart works..

The illustration shows a cross-section of a healthy heart and its inside structures.
The blue arrow shows the direction in which oxygen-poor blood flows from the body to the lungs.
The red arrow shows the direction in which oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs to the rest of the body"

dan ni pulak..

baru terjumpa and pick up from forum al-ahkam.net.. this is malay version la..
easier to understand.. pasal valve..

.."fungsi injap adalah sgt penting bg memastikan jantung kita berfungsi secara normal..
injap memastikan behawa pengaliran darah dari satu bahagian jantung kepada bahagian jantung yg lain adalah SEHALA...
ianya ibarat pintu yg hanya membenarkan perjalanan darah pada satu arah sahaja... dan pintu ini(injap) perlu berada didalam keadan yg sihat dan normal ..
agar ia dapat menjalankan fungsiny dengan baik..
seandainya pintu pintu ini tidak berfungsi secara normal (disebabkan oleh masalah pada injap) ..
perjalanan darah akan tergangu.. dan seterusnya mengakibatkan jantung yg berfungsi mengepam darah ke seluruh anggota badan tidak dpt menjalan kan tugasnya dngan baik dan mencukupi.
Antara masalah yg selalu berlaku pada injap jantung adalah.
1. injap jantung sempit / tersumbat ( stenosis)
2. injap jantung bocor (regurgitation )

dalam masalah pertama.. darah yg sepatutnya keluar ke bhgian jantung yg lain yg melalui "stenosed valve" ini tidak dapat keluar dengan sepenuhnya..
ke bahagian jantung yg berikutnya..
dan dlam masalah regurgitation.. injap ini gagal melaksanakan tugasnya menyebabkan darah yeng telah melalui injap tersebut regurgitated (berpatah semula) masuk ke dalam bahagian jantung yg sebelumnya.

perlu diketahui disini, dalam satu kitaran jantung (cardiac cycle) darah bergerak dari satu bahagian jantung ke bahagian jantung (4 bahagian) yg lain melalui injap2 tertentu dan kemudian dipam ke seluruh badan.
jadi kegagalan fungsi injap ini.. samada stenosed atau regurgitation ..
mengakibatkan jantung gagal berfungsi secara normal.
antara symptom kegagalan jantung...
adalah sesak nafas.. cepat penat.. bengkak pada kaki etc..."

Yang ni plak quote from http://www.mamashealth.com/rheumatic.asp

"What is Rheumatic Heart Disease?
Rheumatic (roo-MAT-ik) heart disease was formerly one of the most serious forms of heart disease of childhood and adolescence. 
Rheumatic heart disease involves damage to the entire heart and its membranes.
Rheumatic heart disease is a complication of rheumatic fever and usually occurs after attacks of rheumatic fever. The incidence of rheumatic heart disease has been greatly reduced by widespread use of antibiotics effective against the streptococcal bacterium that causes rheumatic fever.

What causes Rheumatic Heart Disease?
Rheumatic fever causes rheumatic heart disease. Rheumatic fever results from an untreated strep throat. Rheumatic fever can damage the heart valves.
If the heart valves are damaged, they will fail to open and close properly. When this damage is permanent, the condition is called rheumatic heart disease.

Who is at risk for Rheumatic Fever?
Rheumatic fever is uncommon in the United States. However, rheumatic fever can occur in children who have had strep infections that were untreated or inadequately treated.

What are the symptoms of Rheumatic Heart Disease?
Some of the most common symptoms of rheumatic heart disease are: breathlessness, fatigue, palpitations, chest pain, and fainting attacks.

Treatment options for Rheumatic Heart Disease?
Treatment of rheumatic heart disease may include medication and surgery. Medication will aim to avoid overexertion. Surgery may be needed to replace the damaged valve(s)."

Akhir kata..
"Minumlah susu enercal untuk gemokkan badan anda" eh . salah pengakhiran kata..
"Jagalah jantung anda..sebelum terlambatttt..Bebaskan jantung anda dari apa jua penyakit..Jantung Kita Nyawa Kita.."
