CASE SCENARIO-OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE

93yr old with Jaundice (yellowing of the eyes)

When jaundice is due to an obstruction in the flow of bile:

His stools are pale
His urine is dark brown
His skin itches

This symptoms are more marked when there is a complete obstruction.

An OLDER patient that has a steadily deepening and usually painless jaundice MAY have a tumour causing the obstruction.

So in obstructive jaundice, you may weigh the evidence of tumour,gallstones or any other potential causes.

Good afternoon,

On a chilly Thursday morning,2nd November 2017, exactly a week after the infamous presidential rerun,we opened our doors.

In fact with untold bravado,we flung the doors open.Jumping off into the unknown.

We look back with immense gratitude to our almighty GOD and esteemed clients who held our hands when many wrote us off.

Having done this for decades,we pride ourselves as arguably the most consistent centre for the boys' rite of passage.

Admittedly, we've picked lessons along the way aimed at continuous improvement,investing in a state-of-the art minor theatre,autoclaving machine and more,geared towards minimising post surgical infections and delayed wound healing.

All that coupled with highly trained, experienced,duly registered medical personnel, conducted in a registered medical facility seals the deal.

Don't take their word for it,try us.

EXCESSIVE BLEEDING during and after delivery accounts for about 30 per cent of maternal deaths in Kenya.Thats scary!

A healthy fit woman walking in a delivery stands a risk.Its everyone's prayer including family and doctors that she doesn't go that route.Because it's a slippery path.

It helps then to understand it,and profile at risk mothers attending antenatal clinic explaining the risk factors.

Expectant mothers are advised to regularly as advised attend antenatal clinics.

FACED with the ever rising cost of health care,a good number of patients are considering HOME BASED CARE,a relatively new concept.Its gaining GROUND.

Acruing huge hospital bills due to extended hospital stays getting non-urgent services like wound dressing is ill-advised.

Typically a day as an inpatient would set you back between roughly 7-10k(General ward) and between 20-40k(Private ward).

Home-based care charges range from 3-6k, per day depending on the services requested.While this amount is beyond the reach of many families, it's still below what hospitals charge.

It is emphasised here that home-based care shouldn't be done merely for cost reduction, BUT patient's SAFETY overrides everything.

Having medical insurance policies taking this up would reduce the out of pocket payments by patients.

For our home-based assessment contact 0721465394.
