Note
Health
In the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde" have been detected 50 positive cases the virus H1N1. THE REPORT

* You record the passing number 17 in the Bank

Tapatio A 30-year-old died on Wednesday presented a picture of severe disease

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- The increase in human deaths from influenza in the state of Jalisco is "significant." Yesterday, a woman of 30 years, originally from Guadalajara, became victim number 17 of the disease, the Health Ministry reported Jalisco (SSJ).

It also added 29 new cases of the H1N1 virus type A and nine in the state, so the number of infections rose to 183 thousand and 813, respectively, with presence in 62 municipalities. And it is being added San Marcos, Cabo Corrientes and Zapotitlan Vadillo the list of registered sites of infection.

The latter confirmed death is different from the majority of patients who have died in the Bank since the beginning of the contingency. In this case, women did attend to receive timely medical care, but the H1N1 virus was most severe there, then, that led to the death.

The Director of Public Health of the SSJ, Elizabeth Ulloa Robles, announced yesterday in an interview that the cause of death was complications of pulmonary type and took place on July 18, in the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde." But it was only yesterday when the Institute for Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference (Indre) reported confirmation from the agency.

"To the patient the result of a health center for study, within 72 hours, fever. Enter the hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde", but comes with very severe lung damage, or virus was more severe for this patient, unfortunately, "said the official.

When questioned about the delay in confirmation of this death by the Indre, said the institute does not have an order in the delivery of results, sometimes even received a few days after having sent the samples, but other times There are significant delays.

Warns that the death of the young was one of the deaths that were under study to confirm or exclude the disease, so that no deaths are "suspicious", since two of the samples were nonspecific and were unable to give results positive or negative.

The official made a call on the public not to trust and carry out the measures necessary care, in order to prevent further infections and deaths from the disease.

"Here, do not trust, do not minimize a box influenza, which previously had to deal with in our home, not now, now we have to go to the doctor because it may be A or influenza A H1N1."

To find

The groups which until now can be considered the most vulnerable to attack by the disease are more severe in people with diabetes, with obesity and the basic problems such as asthma, as with the little one who died nine years of the past seven August, who suffered from this disease.


Background


Prepare application for school filters

The report published yesterday that cases of human influenza do not stop in the state. With the upcoming return to school, the filters should be re-review the sites, to identify whether any students had symptoms related to human influenza.

The Ministry of Education Jalisco (SSJ) secured the implementation of measures of hygiene in bathrooms, plenty of water, alcohol gel at the entrance of the school, and questionnaires applied to students and parents.
And is that experts and authorities agree that the return to classes and winter could increase the number of infections and deaths from the virus.

Measures against the disease

If one of the symptoms such as lacrimation, nasal congestion, fever over 39 degrees, headache and muscle and joint, go to the nearest health center to be evaluated and receive appropriate treatment.

It is important not to self medicate.

Do not go to sites with concentrations of population such as restaurants, cinemas, and so on.

Consuming foods rich in vitamin A (spinach, lettuce, papaya, carrot, peach, melon) and vitamin C (orange, lemon, tangerine) and take plenty of fluids to stay hydrated.

Use face mask, which should cover both the nose and mouth.

If no mask and cough or sneeze, cover with the inside of the elbow. You should not do with their hands because the virus is deposited in them and pollute everything they touch.

If you need to blow, do it with a tissue that must be deposited in a separate plastic bag.
No hello or kiss the hand.

Wash hands frequently with soap and water.

Clean frequently handles, railings and toilets keys, especially in public places.

Clean frequently used common objects such as telephones.



The Civil treated six patients who died


Six of the 17 human deaths from influenza in the state have occurred in the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde." Since the beginning of the contingency were detected 50 positive cases of the disease, said the director of the institution, H?ctor Ra?l P?rez G?mez.

However, this number is "low" when you take into account that since the end of April, the Civil evaluated four thousand 800 people, 680 patients also served as suspected cases.

Mentions that the files of the six cases had the common denominator of being patients previously treated at other institutions, with stays of more than 10 days in intensive care, reaching the Civil very deteriorated state of health, so his death was imminent .

Regarding the expected upsurge in the autumn and winter, said that if it happens like every year (when respiratory diseases increased to 40%), the entire health system can "collapse" if people do not care measures and relax as is doing now.

He noted that at this time, the Old Civil Hospital has sufficient inputs to cope with the disease.
"We have inputs for the protection of personnel, adequate medicines and antibiotics for drug cases in which influenza is complicated by a bacterial pneumonia."

Most cases are fatal, he said, is for patients who had complications with bacterial processes. According to the doctor, the decision to ask for more budget to meet the contingency will depend on the trend that has this epidemic, because the cost is high. Just a day in the Intensive Care Unit has an approximate cost of 30 pesos per person.

"It depends on the trend that has this epidemic. By the time we had good coverage, both in inputs such as antibiotics and antivirals. "

On the other hand, believes that the upcoming back-to-school is a good time to give a more "education" to parents, to avoid getting their children to school when they are sick.

Expects no cuts

After the Government announced a cut in federal spending to states and units, Perez Gomez is not expected to affect the issues of health and education.

Clarifies that projects in the Civil Hospital and resources have been awarded, it provides that are not affected.
Such is the case of the building for medical emergencies, which is thought to open in two months.

The data

Care for a day to a person infected with the virus has cost about 30 pesos in the Intensive Care Unit of the Old Civil Hospital.

Influenza and Dengue hits in Jalisco
The cases of these diseases are still growing. A-H1N1 virus are already infected with 1.281, with a fatality rate of government which is almost twice the national average and international

Maricarmen Rello
Guadalajara .- Three epidemics raging in Jalisco. In recent weeks we are experiencing a downward spiral of cases so far unstoppable, for the three diseases. On the one hand, the state shares with the rest of the country virus infection of influenza A-H1N1 reported yesterday that 1.281 patients, a figure that puts him in fourth place nationally, in addition to the state's fatality rate is double the average nationally and internationally. Similarly, this entity have another flu outbreak, with 861 affected by an influenza virus of type A, which was presumed was a disease of the winter season, but most of those affected were infected this summer.

To make matters worse, there is a wave of dengue fever. This year has quintupled cases of viral infection that is transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti, on the same period of 2008. As to the epidemiological week 32 (from 9 to 15 August) of 2009 reported 671 cases last year were recorded at those dates, 136 (see separate release).

Three epidemics living together "is a situation unprecedented in the history of public health entity." Dr. Raul Vargas Lopez, former director of decentralized public institution Civil Hospital of Guadalajara and current local deputy elected by the Democratic Revolution Party (PRD) said that Jalisco has been hit by the plague and cholera, which claimed thousands of lives in the past but had never been swept by three epidemics at the same time.

Although the numbers of patients and deaths from influenza and dengue seem minor compared to that top the list of mortality (chronic degenerative diseases and accidents) is not a minor issue. The doctor said that these three epidemics "are out of control" and that this is due to the inefficiency of the authorities of the Jalisco Health Secretariat (SJS) to stop their advance.

The doctor exemplified that "exceptionally in Jalisco, the fatality rate due to influenza virus A-H1N1 is higher than the national average and international," he said. Here is 1.4 deaths per hundred patients of influenza A-H1N1, when the national rate is 0.8 deaths per hundred patients. In August, this indicator soared to 5.2 deaths per 100 patients "more people can accumulate at the end of the month.

The figures confirm what was said by the doctor. In Jalisco van 1.281 confirmed cases of A-H1N1 and 18 deaths, for a rate of 1.4 deaths per hundred infections, while in the country are 19.712 confirmed cases and 170 deaths, for a rate of 0.86.

In plain words, this means that if you are sick with influenza A-H1N1 is more likely to die in Jalisco. And the odds of getting sick are not so limited, as some fencing.

The future local deputy reported that according to epidemiological models, available in the literature on epidemiology, in each case recognized "there must be five to seven cases that were mild, were not diagnosed or were not recorded or recognized officially ".

The sum of the officers affected by both types of influenza is of 2,142 people, multiplied by seven, gives potential patients 14.994. "In Jalisco should be up to date, at least ten thousand and fifteen thousand cases of influenza ... that insurance unknown to the SSJ," he said.

Vargas Lopez charged the secretary of health in Jalisco, Alfonso Guti?rrez Carranza, who was noted for its "lack of leadership and capacity" to tackle these epidemics and questioned him: "The problem is as simple as lack of training of doctors ? "And he gave the answer:" No ". He said there are serious flaws in the system of referral and patient, which means that patients are 'ball' from doctor to doctor before receiving treatment. He mentioned that the new virus epidemic influenza A-H1N1, "not only was not recognized in time, it served as justification for a series of social distancing measures very questionable, we now see, had a poor impact" because it is not subsequently had an "intelligent continuity with the addition of other strategies."

On dengue, we make the mistake of doing the same thing and expecting different results "and it seemed wrong to blame the people it is intended not to participate in combat actions, as have spokesmen SSJ (P?blico, 12 and August 19, 2009). In the three epidemics, lack of information "and a permanent campaign" to sensitize and orient Jalisco to prevent and treat the disease properly. Campaign that was sadly lacking in this back to school.

Filters are needed in schools: Health

At the risk they represent agglomerations considered a vulnerable population (children, adolescents and youth), the Health Ministry Jalisco (SSJ) reported that measures have been reinforced in cleaning and disinfection facilities and furniture for schools' to prevent a possible outbreak "of influenza A-H1N1 and stressed the need to install filters in educational establishments, which in fact considered as" installed ", although this is not true.

Through a press release that announced the last batch of confirmed cases by the Institute of Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference (23 more influenza A-H1N1 and 14 more than seasonal influenza), the general director of Public Health the SSJ, Elizabeth Ulloa Robles said that as of Monday, the day the new school year began, the filters in educational devices are installed, not only for applying sanitizer gel, but "for the capture of suspected cases which should be reported immediately to proceed accordingly. " He recalled that the SSJ insisted an official letter rotated to each of the 13 health regions in which bisects the state, oversee the strategy that these measures do they apply, for which each region will issue a weekly report on the matter.

The truth is that the return to school was unfiltered health in all schools, as advanced as the Jalisco Secretariat of Education (SEJ), and reiterated its owner yesterday, these modules will only be installed in schools in colonies where has reported cases.

In the bulletin issued yesterday by the SJS refers to the start of school clusters and the staff encourages highlighted the vulnerability to influenza A-H1N1 population includes children, adolescents and youth.

But about the possibility of increased human influenza infections in state schools, the Jalisco Health Secretariat reiterated that turned trades at 13 health regions of the state to be monitored in schools using antibacterial gel on admission of students, and also to "capture" those who manifest symptoms of a possible spread of influenza to prevent contact with other students and were referred to a medical consultation.

The director of public health, Elizabeth Ulloa Robles, urged parents to take responsibility for the care of their children if schools are where they are not taking appropriate health measures.

"The filters are installed in school buildings, not only for the application of gel sanitizer, but to capture suspects, which should be reported immediately to proceed accordingly."

To keep better control, each health region manager must issue a weekly report about the job they received.

The Head of Health Promotion, Marisela Macias Perez, called on parents, so that if they see in their children's school does not meet hygiene standards, make a telephone report to the Secretariat de Salud Jalisco (SSJ).

"The school buildings were not revised, however, is a commitment that managers acquire, and we ask, especially, support from parents.

Perez Macias said that the direction we will take care of revisions by the schools, is the Sanitary Regulation. However, the unit does not have enough staff to visit all the campuses, so it appealed to the responsibility of managers and parents.

Reported 23 new cases of influenza

Moreover, the SSJ reported 23 new cases of human influenza, the total amounts to 281 thousand records.
