Clinical Manifestation of Polio

The following phases of the virus infection:
 
A. Acute Stage
 
That phase since the clinical symptoms up to 2 weeks. Characterized by increased body temperature. Sometimes accompanied by headache and vomiting. Paralysis caused by damage to the motor neuron cells in the spinal cord (spinal cord) due to a virus invasion. This paralysis is asymmetrical so it tends to cause a disturbance in body shape (deformity) that persist or even become more severe. Paralysis that occurs mostly in the legs (78.6%), whereas 41.4% in arm. Gradual paralysis lasted until about 2 months after the initial illness.

Therapy of Polio

 
      The management of poliomyelitis Treatment in patients with polio is not specific. Treatment aims to relieve symptoms and supportive treatment to improve the stamina of the patient. Physiotherapy services need to be given to minimize the paralysis and make sure to avoid muscle atrophy. Orthopedic treatments available for those who experience persistent paralysis. The most effective disease control is prevention through vaccination and surveillance of AI P. Do rehabilitation patients to rest and put to bed, allowing the affected limb to be really comfortable. If exposed to the respiratory organs, respiratory physical therapy may be needed.

How to Prevent Polio

Prevention Efforts
 There are some preventive measures this spread of polio, which are:

1. Polio eradication
 World Health Assembly in 1988 which was followed by most countries around the world made an agreement to conduct Polio Eradication (ERAPO) in 2000, meaning that a polio-free world in 2000. ERAPO the first program is to do with the overall immunization coverage.

How Polio Transmited

Poliomyelitis caused by polio virus. One in 200 infections develop into paralysis. A total of 5-10 percent of patients paralyzed, died when his breathing muscles become paralyzed. Mostly affects children under the age of three years (more than 50 percent of cases), but can also affect adults. Prevention by vaccination at regular intervals, ideally in childhood.

Types of Polio

Polio
        Poliomyelitis, or polio, is a paralysis or paralytic disease caused by viruses. Carrier agent, the disease is a virus called poliovirus (PV), enters the body through the mouth, infecting the intestinal tract. The virus can enter the bloodstream and flows into the central nervous system causing muscle weakness and sometimes paralysis.

The word "polio" is derived from [Greek] or its more recent, from the "gray" and "spotting". Polio disease caused by infection with polio virus derived from the genus Enterovirus and the family Picorna viridae. The virus is transmitted through the feces (stool) or throat secretions of infected people. Polio virus entered through saliva causing infection.
