English to Lithuanian: What is Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English What is Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MCADD)?
About one in 10,000 babies born in Scotland has MCADD. Babies with this inherited condition have problems breaking down certain fats, in order to make energy for the body. It can lead to serious illness, and in some cases even death, if the baby is not feeding regularly.
What happens if MCADD is suspected?
If the blood test shows that your baby may have MCADD, the health professional taking care of you will make arrangements for you to see a specialist doctor as soon as possible. Further tests including DNA analysis will be carried out to confirm whether your baby has MCADD, and you will be asked to make sure that your child eats regularly and to pay special attention to feeding when your baby is unwell. This can prevent serious illness and allow babies with MCADD to develop healthily.
What would happen if a baby is not screened for MCADD?
It is your choice whether to have your baby’s blood tested. If your baby has MCADD and this is not detected, it can lead to serious illness or in some cases death (if your baby goes for a very long time without food, particularly if your baby develops an infection).
Translation - Lithuanian Kas yra vidurinės grandinės acil-CoA dehidrogenazės nepakankamumas ( VGADN)?
Maždaug vienam iš 10 000 Škotijoje gimusių kūdikių diagnozuojama VGADN. Kūdikiams, paveldėjusiems šią ligą, yra sutrikęs tam tikrų riebalų skaidymas, kurio metu kūnui perduodama energija. Kūdikiui reguliariai nesimaitinant, tai gali tapti sunkios ligos ar, kai kuriais atvejais, netgi mirties priežastis.
Koks tolimesnis procesas vyksta įtarus, kad aptikta VGADN?
Jei kraujo tyrimai parodė, kad jūsų kūdikiui įtariamas VGADN, jumis besirūpinantis sveikatos apsaugos darbuotojas suorganizuos skubų vizitą pas gydytoją specialistą. Bus atlikti kiti tyrimai ir DNR analizė, nustatantys, ar jūsų kūdikis turi VGADN. Būtina užtikrinti reguliarų kūdikio maitinimą, o jam susirgus ypatingą dėmesį kreipti į jo maitinimąsi. Tokiu būdu įmanoma išvengti rimtos ligos ir padėti VGADN diagnozuotiems kūdikiams sveikai vystytis.
Kokios neatliktų tyrimų dėl VGADN pasekmės?
Kūdikių kraujo testas nėra privalomas. Nenustačius, kad kūdikis serga VGADN, jam gresia sunki liga ir net mirtis (jeigu kūdikis negauna maisto ilgą laiką, ypatingai tais atvejais, kai išsivysto infekcija).
