Imithi Yokunconywa Yabantu abadala

Izingane zithola imishanguzo eminingi uma zisencane, kodwa abazali abaningi nabanye abantu abadala bayakhohlwa ukuthi bangadinga ukugoma futhi. Kungenxa yokuthi ungumuntu omdala akusho ukuthi awusengozini yezifo ezithile. Kwezinye izimo, kuye ngokuthi ubudala kanye nezinye izici, abadala bangabe besengozini kulezi zifo kunabantwana. Ngakho qiniseka ukuthi uhlola nomhlinzeki wakho wezempilo futhi uhlale usesikhathini ekugonyeni kwakho kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uneminyaka yakho.

Kungasindisa impilo yakho kuphela.

ukuqondisa

1. I-Tetanus (Td noma i-Tdap) : Ngemuva kochungechunge lokuqala lwe-tetanus shots njengengane (kufakiwe ku-Dtap), bonke abantu abadala badinga i-booster njalo eminyakeni eyishumi. Kunconywa ukuthi enye yalezi zithathwe esikhundleni se-Tdap ukuze ivikele ukukhwehlela (pertussis) ngesikhathi esithile phakathi kweminyaka engu-19 no-64.
2. I-pneumonia : Bonke abantu abangaphezu kweminyaka engama-65 kufanele babe nomuthi wokugoma nge-pneumonia ngesikhathi esisodwa. Uma unezinto ezibeka ingozini engakubeka engozini ephakeme yalesi sifo, ungadinga le migomo ngaphambi kokuba usufike eminyakeni engama-65. Abantu abanezifo ezingapheli kanye nezinhlelo zokuzivikela ezivikelweyo bazodinga lo mgomo njalo eminyakeni emihlanu.
3. Umkhuhlane : Izincomo zamanje zokukhwabanisa ukuthi zonke izingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka engu-18 nabo bonke abadala abangaphezu kweminyaka engu-50 bathola ukugoma ngonyaka. Kunconywa njengendlela yokugoma ngonyaka kunoma ubani oneminyaka engama-19 no-49 ohlangabezana nenqubo engozini.
4. I-MMR : Uma ungakaze ube nomgomo we-MMR futhi ungakaze ube nesimungumungwane, ama-mumps noma i-rubella (isishuqulu samajeremane), ungadinga umgomo. Kunconywa umthamo owodwa noma amabili uma uneminyaka ephakathi kweminyaka engu-19 no-49 kanye nomthamo owodwa kunconywa kulabo abangaphezu kweminyaka engama-50 abasengozini enkulu yezifo.

1. I-HPV : Umuthi wokugoma we-HPV ungumuthi omusha omusha wokuvimbela izinhlobo ezithile zomdlavuza wesibeletho. Kunconywa amantombazane aphakathi kweminyaka engu-11 no-24 futhi adinga ukunikezwa ngamanani amathathu.
2. I-Varicella (Inkukhu ye-Chickenpox) : Umuthi wokugoma we-varicella unconywa kuwo wonke umuntu omdala ongazange abe nomgomo futhi angakaze abe nesifo senkukhu. Lo mgomo uhlinzekwa ngamanani amabili ahlukene.

1. I-Hepatitis A : Umuthi wokugoma we-hepatitis A unconywa kubo bonke abantu abadala abasengozini enkulu yalesi sifo. Inikwa ngamanani amabili.
2. I-Hepatitis B : Ukugonywa kwe-hepatitis B kunconywa kubo bonke abantu abadala abahlangabezana nemigomo engozini yokuthola lesi sifo. Inikezwa ngamanani amathathu.
3. I-Meningococcal : Umuthi wokugoma we-meningococcal unconywa kubo bonke abantu abadala abasengozini enkulu. Ivikela izinhlobo ezithile ze-meningitis ne-pneumonia. Ukulinganisa okukodwa noma ngaphezulu kungadingeka kuye ngezici zakho zobungozi kanye nezincomo zodokotela wakho.
4. I-Zoster (izibungu) : Umthamo owodwa wokugoma i-herpes zoster unconywa kubo bonke abantu abadala abangaphezu kweminyaka engama-60. Uvikela ngamabhantshi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi umuntu ube nesifo yini ngaphambili noma cha.

Isaziso esibalulekile

Lezi zincomo zisebenza kubantu abadala abanempilo, abangakhulelwe. Uma ukhulelwe noma unesifo esingelapheki nge-immunosuppression enkulu (njenge-HIV noma uthola i-chemotherapy noma imisebe) izincomo zokugoma zingahluka kakhulu. Kumele ukhulume nomhlinzeki wakho wezempilo ngaphambi kokugonywa ukuze unqume ukuthi yimiphi imigomo oyidingayo nalapho kufanele uwathole.
