Pagkatapos ng apat na taon, finally, magkakaroon ulit ng leap year o February 29. Huling nagkaroon ng leap year noong 2020. Gayunman, ang mga taong ipinanganak ng Pebrero 29 ay nagdiriwang tuwing March 1 kapag walang leap year.

Nagkakaroon lamang ng leap year pagkalipas ng apat na taon. Kung ang tropical year ay 365.24 days, common year 365 days at leap year ay 366 days, nagkaroon ng leap year dahil kailangan nating mapanatili ang modern day.

Sinukat ito ng mga astronomers mula sa March equinox. Ayon sa mga eksperto, ang mundo ay umiikot ng 365.242189 days o 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes at 45 seconds na umiikot sa araw na tinatawag na tropical year.

Si Roman General Julius Caesar ang nag-implement ng “leap” sa kanyang Julian calendar at in-introduced niya ito noong 45 BC at ang leap day ay Pebrero 24 at huling buwan ng taon.

Gayunman, sa pagdaragdag ng araw kada apat na taon, taong 1582 nang ipinakilala ni Pope Gregory XIII ang Gregorian calendar na patuloy nating ginagamit hanggang ngayon.

Ang kalendaryong ito ay ginamitan ng tamang pormula para makuha ang tamang sukat para sa leap day na tinatawag ding biss*xtile years.

Ano ang Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) ❓️

Ang Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD ay isang neurodevelopmental condition kung saan and isang bata ay may sintomas ng:
-inattention

Ang mga sintomas na ito ay lubhang nakakaapekto sa pang-araw-araw na pakikisalamuha at pamumuhay ng mga batang may ADHD kaya marapat lamang na sila ay mapasuri, mabigyan ng tamang interventions at matulungan ang kanilang mga magulang sa pangangalaga sa kanila.

Global Developmental Delay and Intellectual Disability
Pediatrics

Written by Doc Zane|March 16th 2020

Ano ba ang intellectual disability (ID)❓️Saan ito galing❓️

Ito ay ang bagong term for mental retardation. Ito ay grupo ng mga sakit na kung saan kulang sa talino ang bata at nakaka-apekto na ito sa pang-araw araw na gawain.

Ang mga batang mild (IQ 50-70) lang ang ID ay kadalasang dahil sa impluwensiya ng kapaligiran (pagiging mahirap, pagtira sa mahirap na bansa, mababang pinag-aralan ng nanay, malnutrisyon, kulang sa check up). Maaari rin itong idulot ng namanang problema sa genes, hindi tamang paglaki sa sinapupunan, prematurity, mga problema habang pinagbubuntis, pag-inom ng alak ng ina habang nagbubuntis. Madalas ay hindi lang isa sa pamilya ang apektado (familial clustering).

Karamihan naman ng severe ID (IQ less than 50) ay may problema na talaga sa katawan bago pa ipanganak (prenatal biologic cause). Ang examples ay Down syndrome (dating tinatawag na mongolism), lissencephaly (pinanganak na smooth ang utak walang mga tupi), phenylketonuria, etc.

Ano ang mga senyales nito❓️

kakaiba ang hitsura (dysmorphisms) - examples: maliit ang ulo, sobrang kapayatan, mababa ang tenga, etc.; hindi lahat ng may ID ay may mga ganito
delayed ang development: hindi sila makahabol sa mga nagagawa ng mga kaedaran nila; late matutong umupo, late matutong maglakad, late na makapagsalita, etc.
mabababa ang grades: kapag mild ang ID, posibleng nasa school na ang bata saka malalamang may problema
May tests bang kailangang gawin?

Para malaman kung may ID ang pasyente:

Dahil hindi pa magagawan ng tests ng talino ang mga bata, mga tests muna ng development ang usual na ginagawa. Ang mga batang less than 5 yrs old na may problema sa 2 or more areas ng development ay sinasabing may “global developmental delay” (GDD). Marami sa mga batang may GDD ay eventually madidiagnose na may ID paglaki kapag kaya nang gawin ang psychologic tests.

Para mas mataas ang chance na maagang madetect ang mga delays, kailangan ng combination ng developmental surveillance at screening. Ang developmental surveillance ay ang pagmomonitor sa development ng bata sa bawat check up na walang sakit “well-child visits”. Ginagawa ito hangang mag-five years old ang pasyente. Ang developmental screening naman ay ang paggawa ng formal na tests sa mga batang 9, 18, and 30 months old. Mas mahaba ang screening tests at maaaring makadetect ng mga problems na hindi nadetect sa surveillance. Puwede niyong gamitin ang Care Kompas para matulungan kayong maghanap ng pediatrician na puwedeng gumawa ng test na ito.

Ang mga batang may significant delays sa screening test ng general pediatrician ay nirerefer sa developmental pediatrician. Maaaring gawan ng dev ped ang bata ng tests tulad ng Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI-IV)at Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale (VABS-3).

Para malaman ang sanhi ng ID:

Kailangang matingnan ng geneticist. Marami pong tests ang kailangang gawin. Ang pinakamahalaga ay ang microarray analysis ngunit hindi ito available sa karamihan ng laboratories sa Pilipinas.

Mas mild ang ID, mas mataas ang chance na puro normal ang mga tests at hindi malalaman ang sakit na nagdudulot nito.

Ano ang lunas para dito❓️

Walang gamot na direktang nagpapagaling sa ID. Ang individualized education program (IEP) ang pinakamahalagang panlunas. Kailangan din nila ng mga therapies.

Gumagaling pa ba ito❓️

Ang kahihinatnan ng pasyente ay depende sa sanhi ng ID, sa tindi ng mga sintomas, sa kakayahan ng pamilya at paaralan, at sa mga suporta at therapies na gagawin sa pasyente. Kung maaga nadetect ang delays at nagawa ang mga therapies na recommended ng doctor, mas mataas ang chance na gumanda ang kondisyon ng bata at minsan posible pang hindi na mameet ang criteria ng ID pagtanda meaning maging normal na.

Posible bang mabuhay pa rin nang normal ang mga adults na may ID❓️

Ang mga adults na may mild ID ay may utak (mental age) na parang sa 9 to 11 years old. Kaya po nilang gumawa ng mga simpleng gawain at makapagtrabaho.
Ang mga adults na may moderate ID ay may mental age na tulad ng 6-8 years old. Usually kailangan silang samahan sa bahay at kailangan din ng gabay sa trabaho.
Ang mga adults na may severe ID ay may mental age na 3-5 years old at ang mga adults na may profound ID ay may mental age na less than 3 years old. Kailangan nila ng tuloy tuloy na suporta at pagbabantay. Madalas ay mayroon silang iba pang mga sakit tulad ng cerebral palsy, epilepsy, behavioral disorders, etc. kaya lalong limitado ang kaya nilang gawin. Hindi sila mabubuhay nang normal

Paano ba ito maiiwasan❓️

Bago mabuntis:

safe s*xual practices para maiwasan ang mga infections like syphilis, HIV
Iwasan ang masyadong maaga at late na pagbubuntis.
Kumpletuhin ang mga bakuna lalo na ang MMR.
Habang nagbubuntis:

regular na check up sa OB habang buntis
Huwag uminom ng alak at gumamit ng pinagbabawal na gamot.
Pagkatapos manganak:

Magpagawa ng expanded newborn screening para maagang madetect at malunasan ang mga sakit.
Iwasan ang pagkabagok.
Iwasan ang pagkalason.
Kumpletuhin ang mga bakuna lalo na ang mga bakunang panlaban sa impeksiyon sa utak - Hib vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine panlaban sa meningitis, j*p E vaccine laban sa encephalitis.

They are different, not less.

The third week of January is National Autism Awareness Week, a time to increase understanding of this lifelong neurological condition by disseminating important facts about it and to reiterate our commitment to including those who are autistic. The Proclamation No. 711, which was proclaimed on January 4, 1996 by then-President Fidel Ramos, supports this annual celebration, which is held in response to the rising numbers of Filipinos being diagnosed with this ailment.
