It is no secret, that people having addictions belong to the risk category. This is because each addiction negatively influences health, finally, leading to different diseases. Smoking is not an exception. At every step smokers are told about the fact that cigarette in their hands is very harmful to their health, however, not everyone is able to throw the addiction developed for years. How to be in such case? What to do if you do not want to die of lung cancer ahead of time (and it is one of the most widespread diseases among fans of smoking)? In order to reduce the risk of development of the diseases connected with addiction, experts found out special programs of medical examinations of an organism called the check-up of a smoker.
What is the check-up of a smoker?
Check-up is the program of organism screening developed by specialists. They are aimed at early diagnostics and the prevention of diseases. Such programs can be highly specialized, such as oncologic check-up or check-up of a smoker, and wider, such as a standard or general check-up of an organism. When we talk about the programs of inspection for the smoker, then they are obligatory for those whose experience of smoking exceeds 10 – 15 years. At the same time, it is not necessary to speak about age, as many people with such experience of smoking did not reach a point in 40 years yet. At the same time, the condition of their health is in most cases already far from ideal thanks to an addiction. The program of the examination will help the specialist estimate smoking consequences for the human body.
How does check-up take place?
The program of examination takes place according to the standard scenario: at first, the person addresses to the clinic where he is offered this or that check-up program. Then already within the program, the person comes to an appointment with specialists whose consultations are included in the program of screening. Experts, in their turn, determined by the first survey what analyses and diagnostics are necessary for the specific patient. It depends on the age, sex and experience of smoking of the specific client. There is a list of obligatory analyses and diagnostics, which include analysis of urine, blood, and cardiogram of heart. The program check-up of a smoker includes an additional appointment of the pulmonologist. It is a basic set of researches and diagnostics; however, if necessary the therapist on primary appointment can prescribe additional analyses, proceeding from specifics of a concrete case. Often the appointment, which is carried out after obtaining results of researches and diagnostics is not final as the doctor, finding aberrations, sends the patient on additional appointments to other specialists. In some cases, the delivery of additional analyses will be required.
When everything is passed, and doubts of doctors are found out, the last final appointment of the specialist, on which he tells about results of the inspection of an organism of the patient and the diagnoses, is carried out. Moreover, the doctor, holding a consultation, tells about how it is possible to improve health by a non-drug method. He gives consultations on healthy nutrition and a regime of necessary physical exertion tells about after-treatment options.
An important aspect of the conducted examination is your active participation in the process without which it is impossible to be confident for 100% in the received results. Always truthfully answer the questions of experts, without evading the question. In addition, the results of the previously conducted examinations will help. Screening programs provide the best opportunity to obtain reliable data about a condition of health.
