Ukuhlolwa kwe-TEE

Uma kuziwa empilweni yakho yenhliziyo, ukuba nolwazi olunembile kubalulekile. Ithuluzi elilodwa elibalulekile lokuxilonga elisetshenziswa odokotela ukuze bathole isithombe esicacile sokwakheka nokusebenza kwenhliziyo yakho i-Transesophageal Echocardiogram, eyaziwa ngokuthi ukuhlolwa kwe-TEE.

I-TEE, ukuhlolwa okukhethekile kwe-ultrasound okuhlinzeka ngezithombe ezinemininingwane yezakhiwo zenhliziyo kanye

imisebenzi. Ngokungafani ne-echocardiogram evamile, eyenziwa ngaphandle kwesifuba, i-TEE

kuhlanganisa ukufaka i-probe kumphimbo ukuze uthole izithombe ezicace kakhudlwana. Lokhu kuhlolwa kubalulekile

ukuxilonga izimo ezihlukahlukene zenhliziyo, ikakhulukazi lapho izindlela zendabuko zingakhiqizi ngokwanele

ulwazi.

Iyini i-Transesophageal Echocardiogram?

I-Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE) ifaka ishubhu eguquguqukayo ene-ultrasound transducer

ichopho lwayo elidlula kancane emlonyeni lingene emphinjeni. Lokhu kuvumela odokotela ukuthi bathole

izithombe ezisezingeni eliphezulu zamagumbi enhliziyo, amavalvu, nezakhiwo ezizungezile. Ukuba seduze kommizo kuya enhliziyweni kunikeza izithombe ezicacile kunalezo ezitholwe odongeni lwesifuba. I

inqubo ngokuvamile ithatha cishe amaminithi angu-30 kuya kwangu-60 futhi yenziwa esibhedlela noma kuyunithi ekhethekile yenhliziyo. Iziguli zivame ukuhlaliswa ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukunethezeka ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa.

Ihluke kanjani i-TEE ku-Echocardiogram Evamile?

Nakuba kokubili i-TEE ne-transthoracic echocardiograms (TTE) isetshenziselwa ukubona izakhiwo zenhliziyo, i-TEE inikeza ikhwalithi yesithombe engcono kanye nokuhlola okuningiliziwe.

Ubani Odinga Inqubo? Kuphakanyiswa Nini?

Kunezizathu ezimbalwa zokuthi kungani udokotela wakho angase ancome ukuhlolwa kwe-TEE:

• Ukuhlolwa Kwenhliziyo Okuningiliziwe: Uma udokotela wakho edinga umbono ocacile wesakhiwo senhliziyo yakho
  
  noma umsebenzi, i-TEE iyaphakanyiswa.
• Ukuhlola Amahlule Egazi: I-TEE inhle kakhulu ekuboneni amahlule egazi enhliziyweni, ikakhulukazi ku
  
  izindawo okunzima ukuzibona nezinye izivivinyo.
• Izinkinga Zevalvu Yenhliziyo: Uma kunokukhathazeka ngokuthi amavalvu enhliziyo yakho asebenza kanjani, i-TEE inganikeza umbono oseduze.
• Amagciwane: I-TEE ingasiza ekuxilongeni izifo zamavalvu enhliziyo noma ulwelwesi lwenhliziyo lwangaphakathi.
• I-Congenital Heart Defects: Kubantu abazalwa benezinkinga zenhliziyo, i-TEE ingasiza odokotela
  
  baqonde ngqo ubunjalo besici.
• Ngesikhathi Sokuhlinzwa Kwenhliziyo: Ngezinye izikhathi, odokotela basebenzisa i-TEE ngesikhathi sokuhlinzwa kwenhliziyo ukuze baqondise umsebenzi wabo futhi baqinisekise imiphumela engcono kakhulu.

Izinkomba ze-TEE

Ukuhlolwa kwe-TEE kuvame ukutuswa ezigulini ezibonisa izimpawu zesifo senhliziyo noma ezinazo

okutholakele okungavamile kwezinye izivivinyo. Izinkomba ezijwayelekile zihlanganisa:

• Izimpawu Zenhliziyo Ezingachazwa: Njengokuphelelwa umoya noma ubuhlungu besifuba.
• I-Abnormal Heart Rhythm: Ukuhlola ingozi yokushaywa unhlangothi ezigulini ezine-atrial fibrillation.
• Ukuhlolwa Kwezivivinyo Zenhliziyo: Ukuhlola izinkinga ezifana nokuguquguquka noma i-stenosis.

Izinyathelo zokungabikho

Abantu abathile bangase bangabi abantu abafanelekela i-TEE ngenxa yezimo ezithile zempilo ezifana nesifo esinzima somphimbo noma izinkinga ezithile zokopha.

Izinzuzo Zokubhekana Nezimo Zenhliziyo

Ukuhlonza izinkinga zenhliziyo kusenesikhathi nge-TEE kungaholela ekukhetheni ukwelashwa okufika ngesikhathi, okungenzeka

ukuvimbela izinkinga ezinkulu ezifana nokushaywa unhlangothi noma ukuhluleka kwenhliziyo. Ukubhekana nalezi zinkinga kuyathuthuka

imiphumela yesiguli jikelele kanye nezinga lempilo.

Inqubo ye-TEE: Okufanele Ukulindele

Ngaphambi Kwesivivinyo

Ukulungiselela ukuhlolwa kwakho kwe-TEE kuqondile, kodwa kubalulekile ukulandela imiyalelo kadokotela wakho

ngokucophelela. Nakhu ongakulindela ngokujwayelekile:

• Ukuzila ukudla: Kuzodingeka uyeke ukudla nokuphuza amahora ambalwa ngaphambi kokuhlolwa, ngokuvamile
  
  cishe amahora angu-6. Lokhu kwenzelwa ukuqinisekisa ukuthi isisu sakho asinalutho, okuyinto ephephile uma kwenziwa inqubo.
• Ukubuyekezwa Kwemithi: Tshela udokotela wakho ngayo yonke imithi oyithathayo. Bangase bakubuze
  
  ukulungisa ezinye zazo ngaphambi kokuhlolwa.
• Hlela Ezokuthutha: Ngenxa yokuthi uzonikezwa umuthi wokulalisa, ngeke ukwazi ukushayela ngemva kokuhlolwa. Qiniseka ukuthi uhlela ukuthi othile akuyise ekhaya.
• Gqoka Izingubo Ezinethezekile: Khetha izingubo ezikhululekile, ezikhululekile zosuku lokuhlolwa.
• Susa Umsebenzi Wamazinyo: Uma unamazinyo okufakelwa noma omunye umsebenzi wamazinyo osusekayo, uzodinga
  
  bakhiphe ngaphambi kokuhlolwa.

Ngesikhathi Sokuhlolwa

Inqubo ye-TEE yangempela ivamise ukushesha kakhulu, ivamise ukuthatha imizuzu eyi-10 kuye kwengama-30. Nakhu okwenzekayo:

• Ukunethezeka: Uzolala ngohlangothi lwesobunxele etafuleni lokuhlolwa.
• Numbing Spray: Umphimbo wakho uzofafazwa ngomuthi obangela ukuba ube muningi
  
  ukhululekile.
• I-sedation: Uzonikezwa umuthi wokulalisa nge-IV ukuze usize uphumule. Uzozwa ukozela kodwa ungabuthi quthu ubuthongo.
• Ukufaka I-Probe: Udokotela uzoqondisa kahle ishubhu elincane, eliguquguqukayo (cishe ububanzi be
  
  umunwe wakho) kwehle ngomphimbo wakho nakumminzo wakho.
• Ukuthatha Izithombe: Uphenyo luzothatha izithombe ezinemininingwane yenhliziyo yakho kusuka emagumbini ahlukahlukene.
• Ukususwa: Uma izithombe ezidingekayo sezithwetshiwe, udokotela uzokhipha ngokucophelela
  
  uphenyo.

Ngemuva kweTest

Ukubuyiselwa ngemuva kwenqubo kuhlanganisa:

• Ukubhekwa: Uzogadwa kuze kuphele ukuthokomala.
• Ubuhlungu bomphimbo: Ezinye iziguli zithola ubuhlungu obuncane emphinjeni ngemva kwenqubo.
• Imiyalelo Yokukhipha: Ungase udinge othile ozokushayela ekhaya ngenxa yemiphumela yokudambisa.

Ukululama Ngemva Kokuhlolwa kwe-TEE

Ukuthola kabusha okuvela ku-TEE ngokuvamile kuyashesha. Iziguli eziningi zingaphinda ziqale imisebenzi evamile phakathi namahora angu-24.

Kodwa-ke, kuyatuseka ukugwema imisebenzi ekhandlayo okungenani usuku lwangemva kwenqubo. Udokotela wakho

izohlinzeka ngeziqondiso eziqondile ezisekelwe esimweni sakho ngasinye.

Izinzuzo Zokuhlolwa kwe-TEE

Izinzuzo ezilindelekile zokuthola i-TEE zihlanganisa:

• Ukuxilongwa Okunembile: Ihlinzeka ngolwazi olubalulekile olusiza ekuxilongeni inhliziyo eyinkimbinkimbi
  
  izimo.
• Izinqumo Zokwelashwa Eziqondiswayo: Isiza odokotela banqume izinhlelo zokwelashwa ezifanele ngokusekelwe
  
  emiphumeleni yezithombe enemininingwane.
• Ukutholwa Kusenesikhathi Kwezimo Ezibucayi: Ivumela ukungenelela kusenesikhathi ezimweni ezingase zibe sengozini yokuphila.

Isiphetho

I-Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE) iyithuluzi elinamandla ekuxilongeni kwenhliziyo, enikeza ukuqonda okungenakuqhathaniswa ngokwakheka nokusebenza kwenhliziyo yakho. Khumbula, ukuhlolwa kwe-TEE kuyindlela ephephile, esebenzayo yokuthi odokotela bakho baqoqe ulwazi olubalulekile mayelana nempilo yenhliziyo yakho. Ungangabazi ukuxoxa nganoma yimiphi imibuzo noma okukukhathazayo nomhlinzeki wakho wokunakekelwa kwezempilo. Bakhona ukuze bakusekele zonke izinyathelo zendlela.
