Bronchiolitis nearly at its peak
Wednesday July 14, 2010 | The Minister of Health estimated that the outbreak will continue for another week and then gradually start to drop cases. The seasonal disease broke out in June-July. In Manitoba, the weekly consultations reach 350. In 2009 exceeded 450.
INTERNMENT SHORT. This type of care have all hospitals providing effective responses in this epidemic, "said Yedlin. THE GAZETTE / JOSE NUNO
"We are seeing right now the top of which we assume to be the peak of this epidemic bronchiolitis. We will continue one more week with the curve getting worse (rising) and then begin to decline gradually. The outbreak of bronchiolitis began about six weeks ago, gradually grew and exploited the cases in these cold days. We will continue monitoring the epidemic lasts for about two months, "said Health Minister Paul Yedlin, in a talk with the Gazette.
Noting that this year the province did not report any cases of influenza A H1N1, due to the massive vaccination campaign in the country, Yedlin it was reported that some cases of influenza B. In the conversation chimed SIPROSA chief executive, Fernando Avellaneda, to clarify that the influenza A virus is much more aggressive than B, ie, as chances of having complications with the virus, regardless of whether H1N1- are higher than with the B virus, "specified.
Yedlin recalled that last year's outbreak of bronchiolitis was strange, since that occurred between April and May, and that she had to serve in the province 480 consultations per week. This year, as in 2008 and that in most years, the outbreak epidemic broke out in June-July and are about 350 weekly consultations. "We will see the highest peak of the epidemic, when this ends," he reiterated Yedlin.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes bronchiolitis in children under five years. It affects the little ones, especially children under one year. "The youngest is the baby, the more severe their risk and this risk is enhanced in preterm infants. The disease produces lifelong immunity. This means that a child can get sick every year, but only once every season" said the minister.
He brought peace to the mothers to ensure that bronchiolitis is a benign disease that begins with sneezing, mucus, like a cold, cough, then come and difficulty breathing. When kids can not take the breast or can not sleep recommended that parents take them to the CAPS for medical consultation.
From IRA program (control of acute respiratory infections), "model in Argentina," said Yedlin, hospital rooms were opened abbreviated in all CAPS and hospitals and were provided with the medication needed: oxygen, aerosols, drugs used with Aerochamber and corticosteroids, and other supplies. "The observation of the child in the early hours of treatment is crucial: if it returns back to his house. If it is internal and sometimes complex levels, although intensive therapy reaches only 1% of patients "said Yedlin.
