14.0 Ketahui Kumpulan Darah Anda!

Sebaiknya kita mengetahui Kumpulan Darah kita i.e. darah kita jenis apa.  Mana-mana klinik dan hospital boleh menolong kita mengenalpasti jenis darah kita.  Sekiranya berlaku kecemasan (semoga dipelihara dan dilindungi Allah) di mana darah perlu ditambah maka mudahlah pihak hospital/klinik mendapatkan bekalan.

12.0 Kelebihan Ayaq Nyok

Saya tidak dapat membuktikan kebenaran tentang kelebihan ayaq nyok (air kelapa muda) kerana artikel ini diterima dari seorang kawan (bukan doktor perubatan).  Kelebihannya mungkin boleh dibuktikan secara saintifik atau beli sebiji RM3.50 atau RM4.00 dan alami sendiri perubahannya. 

Teringat saya nasib yang menimpa seorang rakan se kampung saya, se orang Peguam.  Ceritanya beliau bersama keluarga bercuti di sebuah negeri di Pantai Timur, menginap di sebuah hotel terkenal.  Sebelum balik ke Penang, beliau sekeluarga makan di restoran hotel hidangan "seafood" termasuklah siput lala.  Mereka memandu balik selepas makan. Dalam perjalanan, kesemua mereka merasa kurang enak, seperti perut memulas dan pening-pening.  Mereka singgah di tepi jalan, minum air kelapa muda sebagai penawar, kesemua nya minum kecuali anak bongsunya berusia 6 tahun.  Dalam perjalanan, anak bongsunya demam di dalam kereta dan sesampainya di Penang terus dibawa ke klinik ... seterusnya ia muntah-muntah dan ceret-beret. Allah s.w.t. lebih menyayanginya dan dia telah kembali ke rahmatullah.  

Mungkin ada kelebihan di dalam air kelapa yang Allah kurniakan sebagai penawar penyakit.  Tapi rasa-rasanyalah, tiada nas atau hadith Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. yang menceritakan tentangnya.

11.0 Carta Tekanan Darah

Human Blood Pressure Range Diagram

The 1st Number: Systolic pressure is the pressure generated when the heart contracts.

The 2nd Number: Diastolic pressure is the blood pressure when the heart is relaxed.

What is Normal Blood Pressure ? Buy and use a blood pressure monitor. Compare your BP reading with the numbers on the chart above. Draw a line from your systolic pressure to your diastolic pressure. Is the slope of the line about the same as shown on the chart? Where do YOU fit in? What are your risk factors? Are your blood pressure readings within the normal blood pressure range?Should you take anti-hypertension medication to lower your blood pressure?

Normal human daily Blood Pressure Range can vary widely, so any single blood pressure monitor reading is not reliable. BP monitor readings must be taken at different times of day, to determine AVERAGE blood pressure over time.

What is important is your AVERAGE BP, or MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure) over time. Or, where are those numbers sitting MOST of the time?

Normal MAP is about 93 mm of mercury.

10.0 Mereka yang kita kenal telah kembali .... kerana jantung

Di antara mereka yang kita kenal (foto di atas) telah kembali ke rahmatullah kerana serangan jantung pada usia yang boleh dikategorikan sebagai masih muda.

Tidak ketinggalan dua orang sepupu saya, Roslan Abd. Rahman @ Ahmad (foto di atas) dan Abdul Rahim Yusof (foto di bawah, di hadapan sekali) yang telah kembali pada usia awal 50 tahun. Allah merahmati ruh kalian di alam barzah. Amiin.

9.0 BORANG TUNTUTAN PERUBATAN JPA (PENCEN) - UPDATE! 23 November 2014 (6th Anniversary)

Untuk makluman, rakan-rakan yang dah bersara dari perkhidmatan Kerajaan @ pencen, boleh membuat tuntutan perubatan melalui Borang Perubatan 1/09 - Permohonan Perbelanjaan Kemudahan Perubatan Di Bawah Pekeliling Perkhidmatan Bilangan 21 Tahun 2009.

Langkah-langkah / syarat-syarat yang perlu dipatuhi ialah:

1) ubat-ubat yang dibeli di farmasi (di luar Hospital Kerajaan) disahkan oleh doktor yang merawat kita, tiada atau tidak dibekalkan oleh farmasi hospital berkenaan, contohnya Plavix 7.5mg atau Coralan 7.5mg (Ivabradine);

2) dapatkan resit dari kedai ubat / farmasi (himpun semua resit);

3) isi Borang Perubatan 1/09 - Borang ini boleh dimuaturun dari website http://www.jpapencen.gov.my/laman_utama.asp. (contoh Borang seperti di bawah ini - Lampiran E).

 

4) Setelah semua maklumat diisi di dalam borang tersebut, dapatkan tandatangan doktor pakar yang merawat kita di Borang tersebut (Lampiran F di atas, m/s 25);

5) dapatkan tandatangan Pengarah Hospital di Borang tersebut (Lampiran F di atas, m/s 25) dan

6) pos laju / ekspres semua dokumen termasuklah Borang, Resit Asal pembelian ubat dan satu salinan fotokopi Kad Pesara (depan & belakang di atas muka kertas A4). Pastikan anda fotostat dan simpan satu salinan Borang yang telah lengkap dan resit Asal yang dihantar ke JPA, kerana kadang-kadang berlaku kehilangan atau tercicir dan akan menimbulkan masalah.

Selalunya bayaran balik akan diterima dalam tempoh 1 bulan dari tarikh dihantar.

Maklumat tambahan:

Sebagai maklumat tambahan, tuntutan bayaran balik ini juga meliputi sebarang peralatan rawatan ke atas diri pesakit (pesara) misalnya pembelian alat stenting (spring) untuk dipasang pada urat jantung yang tersumbat (Kategori tuntutan dinyataka di bawah ini).  Kita dikehendaki order menerusi doktor pakar Hospital Kerajaan dan membayar dahulu kepada pihak pembuat/pembekal stenting tersebut menerusi Banker's Cheque dari mana-mana bank tempatan. Dalam kes saya, saya menyediakan dua Banker's Cheque di atas nama pembekal seperti yang diarahkan oleh doktor pakar (lihat foto di bawah).  Tetapi jika satu stent sahaja yang diguna, B/C ini boleh dipulangkan dan wang dikembalikan oleh bank.

Nota: Kategori tuntutan perbelanjaan adalah meliputi perkara-perkara berikut:-

1. Ubat

2. Alat Ortopedik
3. Anggota Palsu
4. Kerusi Roda
5. Alat Bantu Pendengaran
6. Alat Rawatan Jantung/ Alat Bantu Pernafasan/ Koklea Implan/ Colostomy Bag/ Urine Bag/ Intraocular Lens
7. Alat-alat Lain
8. Perkhidmatan Perubatan
9. Rawatan Penyakit Buah Pinggang
10. Rawatan Kemandulan
11. Rawatan Kepakaran
12. Rawatan Di Institut Jantung Negara Sdn. Bhd. (IJN)

 

Contoh Banker's Cheque untuk sebatang stent = RM3,000.00

Tindakan selanjutnya seperti juga tuntutan ubat-ubatan, dikepilkan resit yang dikeluarkan oleh pembekal (contoh foto di bawah).  

Contoh Invoice/resit dari pembekal stent.

Begitulah juga halnya jika melibatkan lain-lain peralatan rawatan yang disyorkan oleh doktor pakar tetapi tidak terdapat bekalannya di hospital kerajaan.

Kita patut bersyukur dan berterimakasih kepada kerajaan pemerintah kerana masih mendapat perkhidmatan rawatan yang berkualiti dan setaraf dengan hospital swasta pada kadar boleh dikatakan "percuma".  Bayangkan bayaran untuk memasukkan se batang stent menerusi proses Angiogram di hospital swasta ialah di antara RM15,000.00 hingga RM25,000.00.  Kawan pejabat saya kena pasang 6 batang stents, bayangkan kosnya. 

8.0 Soal Jawab Dr. Pakar Jantung (1)

Tip kesihatan jantung untuk dikongsi bersama.

Majlis soaljawab dengan Dr. Devi Shetty, Narayana Hrudayalaya ( Heart Specialist) Bangalore diatur oleh WIPRO untuk kakitangannya. Transkripnya seperti di bawah ini dan amat berguna kepada semua.

Jangan ingat orang umur 40 tahun ke atas sahaja menjadi sasaran "serangan jantung", sekarang ini di bawah 40 tahun pun ramai yang kena dah.
