Enboli (clots) can cause undetected, irreversible results. Failure to properly intervene in the clot that starts in the leg causes the enbolin to clog the pulmonary vessels, creating a fatal risk. President of the National Lung Health Congress (UASK) with International Participation Prof. Dr. Nuri Tutar said, “When you stay immobile for a long time, the enbolism (clot) formed in the leg may progress to the lung. When it occurs in the leg, a swelling occurs or pain is felt. Then, if this clot advances to the lung, it blocks the airways and clogs the vessels of the lung. can take it,” he warned.
ATTENTION TO THE SHALLOWS ON THE LEG
prof. Dr. Nuri Tutar made statements about the relationship between earthquake and lung enbolism. Tutar said, “There were people who were buried in the earthquake. Or, let’s say he survived, they went out and stayed in their car after they were saved. Or it stayed in areas where it couldn’t move. What we call enboli actually means clot. The clot can start from our leg and progress to the lung. When it occurs in the leg, a swelling occurs or pain is felt. Then, if this clot advances to the lung, it blocks the airways and clogs the vessels of the lung. After clogging the vessels, it can lead to death by impairing the working function of the lungs. Staying still for a long time, especially here; For example, the position that occurs while driving can create pressure on the veins and prepare the ground for the formation of clots.
“NUMBER OF ENBOLY OCCURRED DURING THE EARTHQUAKE TIME DOUBLED TO 5”
Stating that the stress experienced in the earthquake area may trigger the disease, Tutar said, “This stress may also disrupt the structure of the vessels and cause clot formation. A study has been done in Japan on this subject. In this study, the number of pulmonary enbolisms that normally occur in the earthquake zone and the number of enbolisms that occur at the time of the earthquake doubled. In other words, clot formation really increases during an earthquake. You have to be aware of this. If there is swelling in our leg, if one leg is wider than the other, it is necessary to pay attention to this. Or blood coming from our mouth, pain in our chest are the findings that show us that a clot may occur. You have to be careful on these. We saw these in the first week, 1 month has passed and now the relationship between earthquake and clot has decreased.
THE MOST IMPORTANT WAY TO PROTECT IS TO MOVE
Stating that wherever there is stress and inactivity, the pulmonary vessels are at risk for clots, Tutar concluded his words as follows: “The best way to be protected here is to act. If the patient comes to the hospital, we already intervene. The drivers of the construction machines working in the region also move for a certain period of time during the day, just waiting in the truck, lying in the truck and staying motionless creates a risk factor for clots. Its treatment is blood thinners. We use injections or pills. There is a treatment period ranging from 3-6. From time to time, we hear these complaints from our friends who study for 10-12 hours in the TUS exam. It is necessary to move after 2 hours.”
