Recently, the HCM City Department of Health (DoH) has reported 2 cases of measles in children in HCM City who were not vaccinated. Measles is most common in children, according to the World Health Organization. This serves as a reminder to parents about the importance of closely monitoring their children's vaccination schedules.

Organized by the Child Accident Prevention Trust (CAPT), Children Safety Week takes place from June 3rd to June 9th, 2024. This annual campaign aims to educate families on accident prevention and ensure children's safety.

Safety is not just about protecting children from accidents but also protect their health from preventable illnesses. Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to boost immunity and prevent children from dangerous diseases.

Have your children been fully vaccinated yet? Let’s check with the vaccination schedule for children below, recommended by pediatric specialists at FMP, supporting parents to keep track of important milestones to ensure their children are vaccinated properly.

BEWARE OF GETTING SUNBURNED IN THIS HOT WEATHER!

Looks like the extreme heat has arrived before summer. According to the European Union's Climate Change Monitoring Agency (EU), last April 2024 was the hottest April in history. And sunburn is one of the most common but often overlooked issues.

What is a sunburn?
Sunburn is an acute dermatitis reaction following long-term exposure to UV rays from the sun (or artificial sources). Sunburn causes a painful feeling and may even require treatment in most cases.

How to protect yourself?
• Avoid exposure to sunlight during the strongest sunlight (around 10 am - 4 pm)
• Apply sunscreen before going outside (with minimum SPF index of 30)
• Shield (with mask, hat, umbrella, sunglasses, long sleeves, etc.)
• Avoid sunbathing and bed tanned skin
• See a dermatologist to check skin condition every year

See your dermatologist now!

You need to seek medical help if the pain persists after a long period of time or if there is severe blisters on a large part of the body. The bad news for you is that the damage to skin cells will increase with each sunburn, which leads to skin cancer. Book your appointment with FMP's dermatologist, Dr. Akari, today.

Being a nurse is one of the toughest occupations in healthcare as it requires experience, determination, and most importantly, sacrifice. Behind closed doors, not many people understand that nurses sacrifice time and energy to provide the best possible care for patients. Nurses often face long hours, demanding shifts, and emotionally draining circumstances. The physical and mental demands could easily take a toll on their well-being. However, they are incredibly resilient and continue to show unwavering dedication and compassion, making them an integral part of any healthcare organization.

Let us extend our heartfelt gratitude to wonderful nurses worldwide. And to our dedicated nurses at FMP, thank you for your invaluable contributions and resilience during difficult times.

Did you know that climbing stairs is one of the most inexpensive, convenient, and efficient ways to strengthen your heart?

Here are five ways your heart benefits from climbing stairs:

1. Increased Heart Rate: Climbing stairs raises your heart rate, similar to other aerobic exercises like jogging or cycling. This elevated heart rate strengthens the heart muscle over time, improving its efficiency and overall cardiovascular health.

2. Lower Blood Pressure: Regular stair climbing can help lower blood pressure. When you exercise, your heart becomes stronger and more efficient at pumping blood, which can lead to lower resting blood pressure levels.

3. Improved Circulation: Stair climbing promotes better blood circulation throughout the body, which can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack.

4. Weight Management: Stair climbing is a weight-bearing exercise that can help with weight management. Maintaining a healthy weight is important for overall heart health and reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

5. Stress Reduction: Climbing stairs can serve as a natural stress reliever. Physical activity triggers the release of endorphins, which are natural mood enhancers that reduce stress and anxiety.

For concerns related to cholesterol and heart problems consult with our Internal Medicine doctor for proper assessment and treatment if recommended.

Control of irritable bowel syndrome through diet and nutrition

Do you struggle with IBS? Having a good diet and nutrition can help reduce the symptoms of IBS and improve your quality of life.

Here are some tips to help you manage irritable bowel syndrome:

1. Try a low-FODMAP diet, which includes avoiding certain foods that can cause IBS symptoms like garlic, onion, wheat and certain fruits.

2. Focus on incorporating fiber-rich foods into your diet, such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Fiber can help condition bowel movement and reduce constipation or diarrhea.

3. Discover the benefits of microbiological enzyme, which is the bacteria that help support gut health. Yogurt, Kefir mushrooms and other fermented foods can be good sources of microbiological fermentation.

4. Purposeful eating by paying attention to body signals and avoiding overeating. Eating smaller, more frequent meals may also help control IBS symptoms.

5. Drink lots of water throughout the day. Staying dehydrated will help support digestion and overall gut health.

If you need nutrition and diet guidance, FMP's clinical nutritionist, Ms Sherine is here to assist you right away.

Get your kids and yourself vaccinated. Pertussis is vaccine-preventable.

Over the past few weeks, our clinic has observed an increase in cases of B. Pertussis among our pediatric patients. Samples have been collected and positive cases been reported to the Center for Disease Control at HCMC.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐁. 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬?
A type of bacteria called Bordetella Pertussis is the cause of whooping cough, also known as pertussis, a very contagious respiratory illness. The disease is only found in humans.

𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍
• Spread through droplet infection and direct contact
• Spread into the air through coughs or sneezes

𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐒𝐘𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐎𝐌𝐒
In infants:

• Severe fits of coughing that can cause the baby to become cyanotic (Blue color due to lack of Oxygen)
• Cough followed by vomiting

In older children and adults:
* Symptoms are lighter . Persistent cough lasting > 2 weeks should alert to the possibility of infection by Bordetella Pertussis

𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓
Antibiotics may shorten the period of communicability from 7 days after exposure to 3 weeks after the onset of typical paroxysms to only 5-7 days after the onset therapy.

𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍
The 5-in-1 vaccine combines vaccines against Diphtheria / Pertussis, / Tetanus (DPT), Polio and Haemophilus Influenzae type B (Hib) in 1 injection. The 6-in-1 vaccine combines vaccines against Diphtheria / Pertussis / Tetanus (DPT), Polio, Haemophilus Influenzae type B (Hib) and Hepatitis B in 1 injection.

Be aware that in order to protect our babies , it is important that older children and adults be vaccinated periodically too.
