Ukuguqulwa kwe-Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve (TENS) kuyisisetshenziswa esincane, esilondolozwe ngesandla esingasetshenziswa ukukhipha ukushisa okuncane emzimbeni. Lokhu kusiza ukuvuselela izintambo zomzimba futhi kungasebenza ukusiza ukuvimba izibonakaliso zobuhlungu emsebenzini. Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi i-TENS iyunithi ayikugcini ukuhamba noma ukucabanga ngezikhundla ezihlukahlukene zabasebenzi .
I-TENS yenza kanjani?
Kungcono ukuthola ukuqeqeshwa kanye neyunithi yakho ye-TENS ngaphambi kokusebenza.
Lokhu kungenziwa ngudokotela wakho, umbelethisi, isazi somzimba noma omunye oqeqeshiwe oqeqeshiwe.
I-TENS isetshenziswa ngokubeka ama-electrode amane ngemuva kwakho. Amabili ahamba ngenhla ngezansi zakho kanye nambili ngaphambi nje kokuba izimbambo zakho zihlangane nganoma iyiphi ingxenye yomgogodla wakho. Lezi zinamathele eyunithi encane ngobukhulu bepakethe enkulu yegamu ngezintambo. Izilawuli zizoba kwiyunithi yangempela.
Uzizwa Njani I-TENS?
Umcabango wokuthumela ukuvuselela kagesi ngesikhumba sakho kungase kusabe. Iningi labesifazane libika ukuthi lizizwa lifana nokuzwela. Uma ubuhlungu kusukela e-TENS unit, lungisa ukuqina phansi. Ungase ucabange ukwethuka kagesi njengomthombo wokubhekisela, kodwa i-TENS unit ayinamandla, futhi awunawo amandla okuzikhethela. Ngithole ukuthi ngizizwa nginjengomuntu omncane lapho ngisisebenzisa.
Ngifanele nini ukusebenzisa i-TENS ?:
I-TENS ibonakala iyasebenza kakhulu:
- Ubuhlungu obubuyela emuva emsebenzini
- Uma iqalwa ekuqaleni kokusebenza .
- Ngokuba isikhathi eside emsebenzini, njengoba ukholelwa ukuthi kuyasiza
- Abesifazane abanesisindo se-TENS basheshe batholakale
- Abesifazane abanabasebenzi abasekela ukusetshenziswa kwe-TENS
Kufanele Ungayisebenzisi nini i-TENS?
Kunezikhathi ezimbalwa lapho i-TENS unit engeke isetshenziswe:
- Awukwazi ukusebenzisa i-TENS unit uma usesibhawini noma eshaweni. Nokho, ungayisebenzisa phakathi kwezikhathi lapho ungekho emanzini.
- Uma kukhona ukucasula okuvela egumbini elithinta ama-electrodes esikhumbeni.
- Awutholi i-TENS ukuze ibe usizo.
- Awukwazi ukuthola i-TENS unit.
- I-TENS iphazamisa imishini yezokwelapha njengokuqapha kwe-fetal electronic . (Lokhu akukwenzeka kaningi kepha uma kwenzeka, vula le divayisi ngesikhathi sokuqapha.)
Ngingayitholaphi I-TENS Unit?
Ungathola i-TENS iyunithi kusuka kumthandi wezinto ezibonakalayo, umuthi odokotela ovela kudokotela noma umbelethisi wakho. Uma uhlala eYurophu, amakhemikhali athengisa amayunithi akhethekile e-TENS ukuze asebenzise ekubelethweni. Amanye ama-doulas nawo aqeqeshwe ekusetshenzisweni kweyunithi ye-TENS futhi angakusiza ngokubambisana nodokotela wakho. Abanye besifazane baze bathenge izinyunithi zabo zokusebenzisa ngesikhathi sokuzalwa. Yize ama-electrode azodinga ukushintshwa ngemuva kokusetshenziswa okuningi. (Nakuba kungenjalo phakathi nemisebenzi evamile.)
Ingabe Kunezinyathelo Eziqondile Zama-TENS for Labour and Delivery?
Kunezinyunithi ze-TENS ezenzelwe ngqo ukuzalwa, kodwa eziningi zisetshenziselwa izifo ezingokwenyama zezinye izinhlobo zosizo lwezinhlungu. Banobunzima obuguquguqukayo. Ungase futhi ukhethe phakathi kokuqhuma kagesi nokuvuselela okuqhubekayo. Lokhu kusho ukuthi ungakwazi ukulawula uhlobo lokuvuselela okukuzwa kangcono kuwe. Abesifazane abaningi bathola ukuthi baqala ngobukhulu kodwa bukhuphuka njengoba umsebenzi uqhubeka.
