Down syndrome


So what is the clinical features for Down syndrome patient?

Erm.

Erm. 

That's how my friend react when that specialist asked her that type of question. Mungkin blur. Mungkin sudah lama tidak ulang kaji. That's life! Bukan semua benda mau ingat! luls.

"Tapi doctor WAJIB ingat! Kesian kat patient hah!"

BAIKLAH.

.

Ok. Bayangkan patient berikut datang pada anda. Apakah yang anda boleh describe based on your observation? So, based on what we learned, those clinical features might be there,


1. Hypotonia (80%)
Muscle dia lemah-lemah ja. Tapi, ada ja yang cergas berlari-lari. Riang ria ceria lagi ya :)

2. Poor moro reflex (85%)
Ha, boleh google apa itu moro reflex eh#youtube you. hehe

3. Hyper-flexibility of the joint
Cuba tarik your jari up right now. Dia leh bend until mana? At least 85 degree la or 90 degree la. But this kids, dia boleh buat 150-180 degree bend beb! Fuh! But as usual. Bukan semua. hee. 

4. Excess skin on the back of the neck.
so this one, memang kalau nampak pun, most of DS patient tu ada leher yang pendek. Tapi beza lah.. jangan kawan-kawan yang gemuk xnampak leher tu pun kau cop DS annn... T_T

5. Flat facial profile
Memang kalau di ukur symmetry muka tu, dia lagi flat dari orang normal. 

6. Slanted palpebral fissures

7. Simian crease 
Maksudnya, 'garisan tangan dia' ada satu ja. Meanwhile yang normal ada 3 garisan. 


8. Leukemia

9. If male, dia ada small penis. Hypogonadism infertility. 
Tapi yang perempuan. Mostly fertile. If you wanna marry her pun, you boleh ada zuriat keh :)

10. Ventricular septal defect 
Means, risk heart problem tu quite high dekat mereka. 

.

So, camana mau tahu yang baby dalam kandungan tu, ada risk jadi Down syndrome atau tidak. Kena pegi hospital. Do amniocentesis. Dia akan ambik sikit fluid dalam kandungan untuk check. But usually specialist boleh detect ja without using invasive method. 

.

Salah silap boleh betulkan ya :) Jangan ambik bebulat ja.

Sekadar perkongsian!

ASB LOAN or ASB SAVINGs??

27th April 2018 Friday So lately I'm so addicted with financial management knowledge. Not because I am so into 'money', but I don't wanna be ignorance anymore especially when those things related to my career. Wise people said, never depend on single income. And that is what I'm striving for now. When I said 'striving', basically, I am struggling with limited power :) Ugh.  Business is about 'giving'. Giving in your power. Do something for others in your power. In your capacity and limitation. So I remember this scene where I met one of a CIMB guy (Financial Consultant ASB) at Center Point after I had my lunch at ground floor.  I told him, If I want to take that particular 'loan', I would have taken it in a shorter period. Why? Because, TIME IS MONEY. He insisted that it will be better if I take it in a longer period.  But you know who will get the benefit after that longer hours waiting for your money? It's either b...
