How to treat G6PD deficiency

summary

In our medicine, G6PD deficiency is also known as Vicia faba disease. This disease has certain heredity. It is only one of the common diseases caused by G6PD deficiency. In our country, it is one of the high incidence areas of this disease, and the south is more than the north. It mostly occurs in the south of the Yangtze River. The G6PD gene mutation has greatly reduced the activity of this enzyme, and the red blood cells in the body can not resist the damage caused by oxidation, so they are destroyed. Next, I will tell you how to treat it.

How to treat G6PD deficiency

First: there are many clinical manifestations of faba bean disease, but there are great similarities with the general nature of hemolytic anemia. It has many clinical types, such as neonatal jaundice, drug-induced hemolysis, non spherical cell hemolytic anemia. The severity of the disease is different, and the characteristics of patients are also different, but most of them occur in women.

Second: because blood is an important way for the human body to transport energy, for pregnant women, the initial contact with the baby is the umbilical cord, which is likely to be inherited to the child. If anemia is serious, it is likely to make the pregnant woman collapse when she is around, which is a serious life risk to the child and adults. Therefore, it is suggested that if there is faba bean disease, it is best to have a cesarean section.

Third: this disease is likely to need blood transfusion when massive hemorrhage occurs in abdominal delivery, so you need to check your physical condition on time during pregnancy examination, and try to avoid contact with broad beans, especially fresh ones. If you have dizziness, nausea, yellow or reddish brown urine, you must see a doctor to prevent hepatitis, pneumonia and other complications.

matters needing attention

There are many taboos for pregnant women, and many people with a history of disease do not recommend natural birth, so we must know the severity of their disease in time, and it is better to find a more secure hospital for abdominal delivery.
