Gastrooesepageal Refluks atau Sering Muntah Pada Anak Karena Pengaruh Alergi atau Hipersensitif Makanan

Posted on Jumat, 20 Mei 2011 by Silver Dragon

Latar Belakang
  • Audi, laki-laki usia 2 tahun sejak lahir hingga sekarang , sering mengalami muntah, meski dengan pertambahan usia berangsur berkurang. Setelah usia 9-12 bulan mulai timbul gangguan mengunyah dan menelan sehingga hanya mau minum susu dan makan harus diblender. Selain itu Audi mudah sekali terserang demam, batuk dan pilek. Selain mengalami gangguan tidur malam, dia juga mengalami keterlambatan bicara atau bila bicara tidak jelas dan gangguan perkembangan motorik kasar dan gangguan keseimbangan (usia 6-8 bulan tidak duduk dan merangkak, jalan terlambat, dan setelah bisa berjalan jalan sering terjatuh atau goyang) .

  • MAKAN BERLEBIHAN KEGEMUKAN atau OBESITAS
  • INFEKSI JAMUR (HIPERSENSITIF CANDIDIASIS) di lidah, selangkangan, di leher, perut atau dada, KEPUTIHAN
Bila tanda dan gejala Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah pada anak tersebut terjadi pada anak anda dan disertai salah satu gangguan saluran cerna serta beberapa tanda, gejala atau komplikasi alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan tersebut maka sangat mungkin Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah pada anak disebabkan karena alergi atau hipersenitifitas makanan.
Penyebab lain yang memperberat Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah Pada Anak adalah saat anak terkena infeksi seperti demam, batuk, pilek, diare atau muntah dan infeksi lainnya

Memastikan Diagnosis
  • Diagnosis Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah Pada Anak yang disebabkan alergi atau hipersensitif makanan dibuat bukan dengan tes alergi tetapi berdasarkan diagnosis klinis, yaitu anamnesa (mengetahui riwayat penyakit penderita) dan pemeriksaan yang cermat tentang riwayat keluarga, riwayat pemberian makanan, tanda dan gejala alergi makanan sejak bayi dan dengan eliminasi dan provokasi.
  • Untuk memastikan makanan penyebab alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan harus menggunakan Provokasi makanan secara buta (Double Blind Placebo Control Food Chalenge = DBPCFC). DBPCFC adalah gold standard atau baku emas untuk mencari penyebab secara pasti alergi makanan. Cara DBPCFC tersebut sangat rumit dan membutuhkan waktu, tidak praktis dan biaya yang tidak sedikit.
  • Beberapa pusat layanan alergi anak melakukan modifikasi terhadap cara itu. Children Allergy clinic Jakarta melakukan modifikasi dengan cara yang lebih sederhana, murah dan cukup efektif. Modifikasi DBPCFC tersebut dengan melakukan “Eliminasi Provokasi Makanan Terbuka Sederhana”. Bila setelah dilakukan eliminasi beberapa penyebab alergi makanan selama 3 minggu didapatkan perbaikan dalam gangguan muntah tersebut, maka dapat dipastikan penyebabnya adalah alergi makanan.
  • Pemeriksaan standar yang dipakai oleh para ahli alergi untuk mengetahui penyebab alergi adalah dengan tes kulit. Tes kulit ini bisa terdari tes gores, tes tusuk atau tes suntik. PEMERIKSAAN INI HANYA MEMASTIKAN ADANYA ALERGI ATAU TIDAK, BUKAN UNTUK MEMASTIKAN PENYEBAB ALERGI. Pemeriksaan ini mempunyai sensitifitas yang cukup baik, tetapi sayangnya spesifitasnya rendah. Sehingga seringkali terdapat false negatif, artinya hasil negatif belum tentu bukan penyebab alergi. Karena hal inilah maka sebaiknya tidak membolehkan makan makanan penyebab alergi hanya berdasarkan tes kulit ini.
  • Dalam waktu terakhir ini sering dipakai alat diagnosis yang masih sangat kontroversial atau ”unproven diagnosis”. Terdapat berbagai pemeriksaan dan tes untuk mengetahui penyebab alergi dengan akurasi yang sangat bervariasi. Secara ilmiah pemeriksaan ini masih tidak terbukti baik sebagai alat diagnosis. Pada umumnya pemeriksaan tersebut mempunyai spesifitas dan sensitifitas yang sangat rendah. Bahkan beberapa organisasi profesi alergi dunia tidak merekomendasikan penggunaan alat tersebut. Yang menjadi perhatian oraganisasi profesi tersebut bukan hanya karena masalah mahalnya harga alat diagnostik tersebut tetapi ternyata juga sering menyesatkan penderita alergi yang sering memperberat permasalahan alergi yang ada
  • Namun pemeriksaan ini masih banyak dipakai oleh praktisi kesehatan atau dokter. Di bidang kedokteran pemeriksaan tersebut belum terbukti secara klinis sebagai alat diagnosis karena sensitifitas dan spesifitasnya tidak terlalu baik. Beberapa pemeriksaan diagnosis yang kontroversial tersebut adalah Applied Kinesiology, VEGA Testing (Electrodermal Test, BIORESONANSI), Hair Analysis Testing in Allergy, Auriculo-cardiac reflex, Provocation-Neutralisation Tests, Nampudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET), Beware of anecdotal and unsubstantiated allergy tests.

PENATALAKSANAAN

  • Penanganan Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah Pada Anak karena alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan pada anak haruslah dilakukan secara benar, paripurna dan berkesinambungan. Pemberian obat terus menerus bukanlah jalan terbaik dalam penanganan gangguan tersebut tetapi yang paling ideal adalah menghindari penyebab yang bisa menimbulkan keluhan alergi tersebut.
  • Penghindaran makanan penyebab alergi pada anak harus dicermati secara benar, karena beresiko untuk terjadi gangguan gizi. Sehingga orang tua penderita harus diberitahu tentang makanan pengganti yang tak kalah kandungan gizinya dibandingklan dengan makanan penyebab alergi. Penghindaran terhadap susu sapi dapat diganti dengan susu soya, formula hidrolisat kasein atau hidrolisat whey., meskipun anak alergi terhadap susu sapi 30% diantaranya alergi terhadap susu soya. Sayur dapat dipakai sebagai pengganti buah. Tahu, tempe, daging sapi atau daging kambing dapat dipakai sebagai pengganti telur, ayam atau ikan. Pemberian makanan jadi atau di rumah makan harus dibiasakan mengetahui kandungan isi makanan atau membaca label makanan.
  • Obat-obatan simtomatis, anti histamine (AH1 dan AH2), ketotifen, ketotofen, kortikosteroid, serta inhibitor sintesaseprostaglandin hanya dapat mengurangi gejala sementara, tetapi umumnya mempunyai efisiensi rendah. Sedangkan penggunaan imunoterapi dan natrium kromogilat peroral masih menjadi kontroversi hingga sekarang.

Obat

  • Pengobatan Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah Pada Anak karena alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan yang baik adalah dengan menanggulangi penyebabnya. Bila gangguan sulit makan yang dialami disebabkan karena gangguan alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan, penanganan terbaik adalah menunda atau menghindari makanan sebagai penyebab tersebut.
  • Konsumsi obat-obatan saluran cerna atau penahan muntah, terapi tradisional ataupun beberapa cara dan strategi untuk menangani Gastrooesepageal Refluks (GER) atau Sering Muntah pada anak tidak akan berhasil selama penyebab utama alergi dan hipersensitifitas makanan tidak diperbaiki.

Kehadiran Julia Robert Bisa Membantu Promosi Pariwisata Indonesia

Posted on Minggu, 01 November 2009 by My Community

Makassar (ANTARA News)- "Kehadiran Julia Roberts di Ubud merupakan promosi yang bagus untuk Indonesia, sekaligus mempromosikan Ubud di mancanegara," kata Pakar Bisnis dan Marketing, Rhenald Kasali di Makassar, Sabtu.

Dia mengatakan, sekitar dua juta wisatawan mancanegara yang datang ke Bali setiap tahun, rata-rata hanya mengenal Pantai Kuta.Ubud yang masuk kategori desa unik belum banyak yang mengetahui.

Keunikan desa tersebut, lanjutnya, masih kental dengan kealamiannya, seperti tidak diperbolehkan ada traffict light (lampu pengatur lalu lintas), pedagang asongan, waria, spanduk dan aktivitas malam.

"Kafe yang ada di sana pun dibatasi jam operasionalnya hanya sampai pukul 23.00 WITA. Sementara kendaraan tidak diperbolehkan membunyikan klakson dan warga setempat ataupun pendatang tidak boleh membunyikan radio tape dengan volume besar," katanya.

Keunikan lainnya di Ubud, yang merupakan lokasi syuting film yang dibintangi Julia Roberts, adalah setiap desa di kawasan itu memiliki kekhasan usaha yang digeluti warganya.

Sebagai gambaran, di desa yang menjadi lokasi muara Sungai Pure Gunung Lebah di Ubud, warganya berprofesi sebagai pelukis, kemudian warga di desa tetangganya menggeluti usaha bordir dan pembuatan bed cover. Warga desa sekitarnya adalah pengrajin perak, batu permata dan emas.

Dengan demikian, lanjut Rhenald, potensi setiap desa itu berbeda-beda dan akan menjadi daya tarik tersendiri bagi para pengunjung.

"Alasan kealaman dan keunikan di Ubud itulah yang menjadi salah satu pertimbangan, sehingga produser dan sutradara Julia memilih Ubud sebagai lokasi syuting," katanya.

Tidak lupa para Blogger juga sedang mempromosikan Pariwisata Indonesia tepatnya daerah Pandeglang lewat tulisan-rulisan di blog mereka masing-masing. Kenali dan Kunjung Objek Wisata di Pandeglang merupakan tema yang di angkat oleh para Blogger untuk memperomosikan Pandeglang.

Check Credit Score

Posted on by My Community

What To Do to Get Credit Score
Despite some misconceptions, requesting a credit score is not free. If you approach a service or any of the top three credit reporting agencies (CRAs), Equifax, Experian, or TransUnion, you will have to pay a fee for the credit score. Since the scores from each of the CRAs will be different, then you face three fees: one from each.

When you plan to apply for financing or renegotiate your current rates, knowing your credit score from each of the top three CRAs is advised prior to contacting the financial institution. However, if you've already applied then you can request from the institution to release the scores. This can be done regardless whether you've been accepted or not (if never hurts to ask), at it should be at no cost.

Also, you are entitled to receive a free credit report (not score) from each of the CRAs for free once each year. It is more important to keep track of your credit history by requesting a report so that you can correct errors and address credit issues. Understand that the credit score is derived from the credit report. Also, your credit history in each of the CRAs will be different requiring you to approach all three CRAs for their free report.

It is best to request your score or report directly with the CRA, rather than through an intermediary or third party or service, to avoid errors. It is not uncommon for report requests through a service to create issues in getting the report free if the service fails to deliver. Also, when contacting the CRA, request getting the report online to avoid delays and lost reports in-transit.

Bad Credit Refinance

Posted on by My Community

In these situations, you will want to try and obtain a bad credit refinance and try and lower your interest payments as much as possible so you can get back on the right track. Other options to repair your damage credit is to try and consolidate your loans through debt consolidation programs. Be careful, however, of the program that you choose as some of these companies are scam companies and will hold onto your money instead of making payments to creditors.

The reason why consolidating your debt is so important is because it will be easier to make payments instead of having all of your debt scattered all over the place and making sure to make minimum payments on 30 different credit accounts can become tedious after awhile. Also, if you get into a good debt consolidation company, you will be able to reduce the finances charges on the debt.

Home Equity Loans Versus Lines of Credit

Posted on Sabtu, 02 Mei 2009 by My Community

Home equity loans and home equity lines of credit have become increasingly popular consumer financing options. A home equity loan or line of credit can give you access to the funds you need in the event of an emergency by allowing you to borrow against the equity in your home.

Interest rates on home equity loans and lines of credit are often lower than those for credit cards, making them a more appealing option for homeowners. An added benefit is that the interest you pay may be tax deductible. Be sure to consult your tax advisor for further information about deductible interest on loans or lines of credit.

This all sounds great, right? So, how do you determine whether you need a home equity loan or a home equity line of credit?

Once you understand the major differences between these types of loans, you'll better understand which one will best meet your needs.

Home equity loans

Also known as a second mortgage, a home equity loan (HEL) gives you access to a single lump sum that you agree to pay back on a regular monthly basis over a time span of 10 to 30 years. With this type of loan, you can get either a fixed interest rate or the flexibility of a variable interest rate.

Often best-suited for large one-time expenses, home equity loans are beneficial when you need money for things such as short-term home improvements or a new car. It's possible to be approved for up to 100 percent of your home's equity, and an appraisal usually is required as part of the application process to help determine the market value of your home.

Home equity line of credits

A home equity line of credit (HELOC) functions like a credit card, by providing you with a revolving line of credit. You can borrow as much (or as little) money as you need at any given time, up to a predetermined maximum limit, rather than receiving one lump sum as you would with a home equity loan. With this type of loan, you usually receive a variable interest rate based on the fluctuations of the prime rate.

When you are approved for a home equity line of credit, you will be given checks or a credit card to use when you want to draw upon your line of credit. In most cases, your monthly payments will be on the interest only, and you will be responsible for paying back the principal at the end of your draw period. Once the principal is repaid, it becomes available for you to borrow again.

One of the major benefits of a home equity line of credit is that is flexible and like a home equity loan can also be used for anything you want; however is often best-suited for long-term, ongoing expenses such as funding long-term housing renovations, medical bills, or college tuition. Assuming creditworthiness, the amount you can be approved for is based upon a percentage of your home's appraised value, minus what you still owe on your mortgage.

Position Peace Campaign

Posted on Sabtu, 11 April 2009 by My Community

How To Rent A Car

Posted on Jumat, 06 Februari 2009 by My Community

Trying an avtorentacar out before you buy it is even more important when you consider the amount of money spent on one and the time spent in one. A great many dealers will let prospective car buyers test drive a car over night, but is that really enough time to decide if you want to buy it? If not, you may want to consider your option to rent a car for a short period of time.

You will want to ask about any special instructions that are required of you while avtorentacar, for example, filling up the gas tank or pick up and drop off times. Not adhering to these policies can result in fees. The avtorentacar company may offer you insurance to purchase, however, your personal auto insurance may be all you need in the event of an accident with a rental car. Call your auto insurance agent and ask before paying extra at the rental counter.

When you call, be sure to ask about price, vehicle availability, as well as any specials that the branch has to offer. It is worth noting here, that many of these companies will have special arrangements with hotels, airlines or even warehouse stores.

What I am going to share with you in this article is to let you know what the 5 pillars of a good affiliate program are. The 5 pillars are:

  • A good affiliate program will have products that will looks very appealing to the customer who are interested in their niche. For example a fat loss product should look appealing to the customers who are looking for information regarding fat loss
  • A good affiliate program will let you know how much commissions will you be paid and what are the things that you have to do so that you will get paid.
  • Some affiliate program will only pay you for the first sale. If the same customer buys again another product, you will not be credited the commissions. A good affiliate program will explain clearly what the structure of their affiliate program is.
  • A good affiliate program will pay their affiliates in a timely manner.
  • A good affiliate program will provide access for you to view your account so that you will know what the result of you promoting the products is.
These are the 5 pillars of the affiliate program. All of them are important and it is always advisable to do some research on the affiliate programs first before you even join.

What Is Your Investment Style?

Posted on Sabtu, 04 Oktober 2008 by My Community

Knowing what your risk tolerance and investment style are will help you choose investments more wisely. While there are many different types of investments that one can make, there are really only three specific investment styles – and those three styles tie in with your risk tolerance. The three investment styles are conservative, moderate, and aggressive.

Naturally, if you find that you have a low tolerance for risk, your investment style will most likely be conservative or moderate at best. If you have a high tolerance for risk, you will most likely be a moderate or aggressive investor. At the same time, your financial goals will also determine what style of investing you use.

If you are saving for retirement in your early twenties, you should use a conservative or moderate style of investing – but if you are trying to get together the funds to buy a home in the next year or two, you would want to use an aggressive style.

Conservative investors want to maintain their initial investment. In other words, if they invest $5000 they want to be sure that they will get their initial $5000 back. This type of investor usually invests in common stocks and bonds and short term money market accounts.

An interest earning savings account is very common for conservative investors.
A moderate investor usually invests much like a conservative investor, but will use a portion of their investment funds for higher risk investments. Many moderate investors invest 50% of their investment funds in safe or conservative investments, and invest the remainder in riskier investments.

An aggressive investor is willing to take risks that other investors won’t take. They invest higher amounts of money in riskier ventures in the hopes of achieving larger returns – either over time or in a short amount of time. Aggressive investors often have all or most of their investment funds tied up in the stock market.

Again, determining what style of investing you will use will be determined by your financial goals and your risk tolerance. No matter what type of investing you do, however, you should carefully research that investment. Never invest without having all of the facts!

How Much Money Should You Invest?

Posted on Kamis, 25 September 2008 by My Community

Many first time investors think that they should invest all of their savings. This isn’t necessarily true. To determine how much money you should invest, you must first determine how much you actually can afford to invest, and what your financial goals are.

First, let’s take a look at how much money you can currently afford to invest. Do you have savings that you can use? If so, great! However, you don’t want to cut yourself short when you tie your money up in an investment. What were your savings originally for?

It is important to keep three to six months of living expenses in a readily accessible savings account – don’t invest that money! Don’t invest any money that you may need to lay your hands on in a hurry in the future.

So, begin by determining how much of your savings should remain in your savings account, and how much can be used for investments. Unless you have funds from another source, such as an inheritance that you’ve recently received, this will probably be all that you currently have to invest.

Next, determine how much you can add to your investments in the future. If you are employed, you will continue to receive an income, and you can plan to use a portion of that income to build your investment portfolio over time. Speak with a qualified financial planner to set up a budget and determine how much of your future income you will be able to invest.

With the help of a financial planner, you can be sure that you are not investing more than you should – or less than you should in order to reach your investment goals.

For many types of investments, a certain initial investment amount will be required. Hopefully, you’ve done your research, and you have found an investment that will prove to be sound. If this is the case, you probably already know what the required initial investment is.

If the money that you have available for investments does not meet the required initial investment, you may have to look at other investments. Never borrow money to invest, and never use money that you have not set aside for investing!

Make the most money with niche markets

Posted on Jumat, 05 September 2008 by My Community

Affiliate marketing and working with niche markets is the way to go today if you are young and eager to make a lot of money. I’m not saying that affiliate marketers never have to work a single day in their lives and just rake in the cash while sitting out by the pool, but there are tremendous perks to this job. Do you hate going to work every day? Commuting, whether by car or mass transit, is an absolute bore. The hours you spend every week commuting are lost hours that you will never get back before you die. So why not choose something better?

The best thing about affiliate marketing is the freedom to work in a relaxing environment. The “office” could be your home desk, the kitchen table or, why not?, a table by the pool. Every day is “casual Friday” and all your tools are concentrated in the computer. No paperwork to shift around from one desk to another. And the earnings are on par with the setting. The more effort you’re willing to put in building a maintaining a nice website, the more money will come in every day. If this isn’t a good deal, then I don’t know what a good deal could be.

Some people think that affiliate marketing is too much work and that splashing some AdSense ads on a page is far easier. It might be so, but how much money can you get out of AdSense? Two or three dollars a day? Come on, that’s not money but loose change. Affiliate marketing may be a bit harder than AdSense, but this is where people actually spend money. If you play with the big boys, you could make as much as $175 out of every sale. That’s the equivalent of 58.3 days of AdSense at $3 per day you can make in one day.

What many people don’t realize is that the global economy is going through a huge spending period. Across the world people are willing to pay good money for all kinds of products and the Internet has made it easier than ever to spend money. eCommerce has made it possible for people to buy things they had never had access to before. Orders pour in and products and services move across countries because people can search the Internet for answers to their problems and are willing to pay for solutions, regardless or where they come from.

It’s like a river of money moving across the planet and you can become one of those who help connect the buyers with vendors and cash in commission while never leaving their armchairs. The gap between offer and demand is huge nowadays because there are far more people with money out there than there are people who sell things. The key is to find products that are underrepresented, highly demanded and pay high. Until now affiliate information packages do not address this. Many of the marketing programs out there are about re-selling the program you have just purchased.

But things are about to change for you because help is on the way. MakingYouRicher is a comprehensive guide on niche marketing that teaches you how to make thousands a month by learning where to find the highest paying products that are searched for by millions. Visit www.makingyouricher.com/index.html and see for yourself all the opportunities that are only waiting for a quick witted marketer to take advantage of them and get rich fast.

What You Need To Know to Apply for a Credit Card

Posted on Sabtu, 12 Juli 2008 by My Community

By : Frisna

One of the disadvantages of modern times is that people tend to acquire so many things they don’t really need. Numerous gadgets and services occurred targeting a vast market of consumers and this emergence of various inventions somehow blinded people.

Since finances—especially money—is one of the major concerns of many people, a wide array of financial management services and financial options emerged. One of the most visible among the unending line of financial management services there are is the credit card.

Although many people testify for the financial convenience you get when you apply for a credit card, it doesn’t mean that every financing convenience applies for you or for everybody in that matter.

When people apply for a credit card, there is always a reason. It can be for managing their finances, needing extra money or in preparation to a big expenditure. But, no matter what the reason is, people apply for a credit card because of the ultimate convenience it brings. By now, you may have had your share of ‘pre-approved’ credit card offers in your virtual and physical mail. Since people are quite vulnerable when they apply for a credit card, some credit card issuers lure these people by giving low introductory APR, no annual fee offers among numerous perks. The tendency of this so many alternatives and “value” deals is to sway the person who wants to apply for a credit card.

There are undeniably endless lists of pros and cons when you apply for a credit card, but if you really have decided to apply for a credit card, these are some of the helpful tips that can guide you on your credit card shopping journey.

Actually, there are three easy steps you should follow if you have decided to apply for a credit card. First, surf the net and do some research on credit cards. By doing this, you can familiarize yourself with different credit card terms and types. Second, you can compare numerous credit cards that would best serve your needs and lastly, you may now apply for the credit card of your choice by filling out a credit card application by visiting a bank representative or through online.

In order to find the right credit card fast and easy, first, before you apply for a credit card, make sure you mastered the credit card terms. When you apply for a credit card you must know what a “credit card” really is. Being a form of borrowing that involves charges, credit cards usually have underlying credit terms and conditions affect your overall cost. So, it’s best to compare terms and fees before you apply for a credit card and agree to open an account. Some of the important terms to be understood well include the annual percentage rate or the APR.

When you apply for a credit card, you must know how the APR affects your credit account. Being a measure of the cost of credit expressed as a yearly rate, the APR should be disclosed before you apply for a credit card so that you would not be obligated on the account and on your account statements later on. Aside from APR, the periodic rate must be disclosed to the card holder before they completely apply for a credit card so they would have an idea of their outstanding balance and finance charge for each billing period.

Other important terms to know before you apply for a credit card are free period or "grace period," annual fees, transaction fees and other charges, other costs and feature, and balance computation method for the finance charge like average daily balance, adjusted balance, previous balance, and two-cycle balances. If you’re not that type of person who is patient enough to research on all these terms, make sure that before you apply for a credit card, the issuer will give an explanation how the balance is computed and it must appear on your monthly billing statements.
