Home colors | After the deterioration of the health of the artist Youssef Shaaban … When does a Corona patient lose consciousness?

​

An unstable health condition is currently going through the able artist Youssef ShaabanAfter he was infected with the new Corona virus several days ago, his condition deteriorated until he completely lost consciousness, and he is currently in intensive care in Agouza Hospital, in addition to a defect in kidney function.

And about whether Corona has a hand in the occurrence of coma, Dr. Taha Abdel Hamid, professor of chest diseases and allergies at Al-Azhar University, says that the toxins of the coronavirus affect the brain and cause a lack of oxygen, and thus the brain is unable to perform its tasks efficiently, which causes coma, and a sudden lack of oxygen causes coma. .

Dry drowning of the lung

In his speech to Al-Watan, Abdel-Hamid explained that there is another reason for coma, which is dry drowning, as the lungs are air spaces or vesicles coated with blood capillaries, and when air enters the capillaries, poisoning occurs and the fluids inside them begin to fill the vesicles and surrounding cells Consequently, the blood cannot reach oxygen, which causes dry drowning and coma because the body is unable to supply the brain with sufficient oxygen.

Corona affects the kidneys and the brain

The professor of chest diseases confirmed that “Covid 19” affects the kidneys, liver, brain and heart, because they have cells, and if these cells are attacked or an oxygen deficiency occurs, they cause a defect in those organs, and kidney failure can occur.

Severe hypoxia

Acute hypoxia may occur suddenly, and it may cause the patient to enter a serious health condition, which is a significant lack of white blood cells and lymphocytes, and thus immunodeficiency, so the patient is then exposed to infection with any bacteria, and if this occurs, the bacteria will attack the body and lungs. From using strong antibiotics.

Will the Corona patient recover after entering a coma?

A Corona patient can recover if he falls into a coma, and wakes up according to the rapid diagnosis, treatment of the lung with antibiotics and raising the level of oxygen in the blood, and the cases of recovery are good, depending on the speed of diagnosis and the behavior of the treating doctor, and if the discovery of lack of oxygen or the presence of attacking bacteria other than Corona is delayed, in that case The lung and brain are also in poor condition, and other body parts may malfunction, which reduces the patient’s likelihood of recovery.

Viral load is an important factor

While Dr. Kamal Morris, a consultant chest diseases, explained that the Corona virus could be a cause of a coma or a defect in the liver or kidneys, so a comprehensive examination should be performed and other diseases that threaten the person should be ruled out, and the patient’s age and medical history should be known and studied well.

It also depends on the viral load, the dose to which the patient was exposed, his immunity, his age, and whether he suffers from diabetes, pressure, or excessive obesity, all of which are factors that must be taken into account.

And Corona patients who have entered a coma, there are a large number of them already waking up and exercising their normal life, after putting on a respirator, because every patient is not like the other.
