A medical team in the Najran region, southwestern Saudi Arabia, through an urgent surgical intervention, saved the life of a nine-month-old pregnant patient whose heart stopped for 3 minutes.

The Ministry of Health in Najran said that the surgery lasted for two hours, during which the baby was born and was successful.
The Ministry stated that the cardiac anesthesia team at the Prince Sultan Heart Center and the Maternity and Children Hospital received a patient suffering from a heart muscle disorder, which was revealed by a clinical examination, which showed a severe tachycardia, which led to its stopping.

She added that the medical team decided urgently to intervene with electric shocks and save her life at the last moments, while continuing to give her life-supporting medicines.
And she stated that following the health condition stabilized, she was transferred to the operations department, and a safe cesarean section was performed, through which she delivered her healthy baby.

The medical team confirmed that the patient received treatment and medical follow-up in the inpatient department until she and her newborn were safely discharged from the hospital.

The team pointed out that cardiomyopathy during pregnancy is one of the diseases that may lead to sudden cardiac arrest, in which the use of the time factor is of great importance to save the life of the mother and fetus.

Today, citizens of Sidon were surprised by the dumping of hundreds of medical tubes that are usually used in medical laboratories and in hospitals near one of the waste containers at the gate above, in a way that threatens public safety by transmitting diseases and germs among people.

Citizens asked, “What degree of disregard for public health and safety has we reached, especially since the city is already suffering from a waste crisis that individual and collective initiatives are working to address,” appealing to those concerned to “put an end to this persistent disregard for people’s health and public safety, especially with regard to medical waste.”

It has been scientifically proven that the ears can tell us a lot regarding our state of health, as the shape of the ear and its secretions can be evidence of something to pay attention to.

Cases that can be detected by the appearance of certain symptoms on the ear:

heart disease
If you are under 60 and have a crease around your earlobe, you may be at increased risk of coronary heart disease.
There is no definitive answer regarding the relationship between ear wrinkles and heart attacks, but some doctors believe that the underlying process that causes the two is similar.
– One theory is that earlobe creases are related to the loss of elastin and elastic fibers in the skin, the same process that damages blood vessels.
– Most of the time, creases in your ears can be a result of sleeping on them, but if you’re experiencing chest pain or shortness of breath, make an appointment with your doctor.
Hypertension

Tinnitus can indicate problems with your blood pressure.
Research has found that 44 percent of people with tinnitus also have high blood pressure.
High blood pressure doesn’t usually have many symptoms, so it’s a good idea to get tested for tinnitus just in case.
fungal infection

Itchy ears may indicate a fungal infection.
Fungus grows and spreads in the ear canal.
You may see yellow or black dots and white spots in the ear canal.
Other symptoms include earache, crusting of the skin around the ear canal, headache, tinnitus, and hearing loss.
A fungal ear infection is unlikely to go away without treatment.
breast cancer

Earwax with a sticky, wet texture is not normal.
Some studies indicate that wet wax may be a sign of a mutation in the ABCC11 gene, which may increase the chances of developing breast cancer.
It is important to remember that the presence of wet earwax does not mean that a woman is at risk of developing breast cancer, but that this is just one factor that increases the risk.
Kidney disease

Ears that contain a small number of skin growths may indicate kidney disease.
A study by the British Medical Journal indicates that this is especially the case for newborn babies.
Scientists have suggested that this is because the development of the renal canal and ears while they are in the womb happen at the same time.
– Therefore, any kind of disturbance or accident during this time can lead to malfunction of the kidneys and ears in some way.
