Latest therapies Coronary Heart
Health News November 23rd, 2009
After the era of the use of a stent (a kind of metal frame) to create a clogged blood vessels open and drug-coated stents to prevent re-blockage, now comes the latest coronary artery therapy, ie drug-coated balloons (drug eluting balloon / DEB).
Drug eluting balloon is used in the same way as coronary catheter for dilation of narrowed blood vessels. The difference is this DEB antiproliferatif issued a drug called paclitaxel to be absorbed by the walls surrounding the blood vessels. The drug is also used for drug-coated stent (drug eluting stents / DES).
Coronary therapeutic progress was made by Prof. Dr. Dr. Teguh Santoso, SpPD, SpJP, interventions and cardiology experts in diseases of the RSCM and FKUI-Unverdorben Martin, MD, PhD, cardiologist and researcher and developer of therapeutic drug-coated balloon from Germany in the educational media Sequent Please, New Findings Salut medicine, in RS.Medistra, Jakarta, Thursday (19/11).
Installation of DES, or laymen call it a ring, is now a common procedure and proved effective for patients with coronary heart disease to widen the artery so that the path of blood flow back smoothly without surgery. However, this therapy has a risk of narrowing again. “The gaps between the stents can cause new or neointimal crust,” said Teguh.
With drug-coated balloon therapy, the risk of narrowing of the arteries due to reduced drug that permeates into the blood vessel wall. “Disposal of drugs does not require a stent, but it was easily absorbed by the body material,” said Martin.
In a study of 52 patients who tested either by using the DEB and the balloon is not covered in conventional medicine, is known in six months only 5 percent of DEB patients who require repeated intervention because of the constriction.
Another benefit of this drug-coated balloon was able to reach areas of narrowing and can not be accessed by the stent. “This new therapy can be used for cases of re-narrowing of arteries post stent or blood vessels are too small. And many of these cases the population in Asia,” said Teguh.
In addition, while the use of blood-thinning drug in patients with DEB are also more briefly, only 3 months, compared with DES, patients who have blood-thinning medication for 12 months. Actions and treatment costs were much lower than conventional therapy.
However, Teguh reminded that DEB is not the only therapy for coronary heart disease. “If the blood vessels narrowing again despite dibalon then forced to install a stent, but the stent was installed without the drug because the blood vessel walls are treated,” he explained.
Coronary heart disease characterized by obstruction (narrowing) coronary arteries by fatty deposits and thickening of vessel wall consisting of smooth muscle cells and extracellular matrix production is exaggerated. This causes the blood flow resistance. Patients generally feel shortness of breath and slightly depressed in the chest. According to the Teguh, most people with coronary heart disease aged less than 40 years were smokers.
Vaccines Industry “Booming”
Health News November 23rd, 2009
Malaria, tuberculosis, AIDS, pandemic flu, herpes, Alzheimer’s, allergies, until diarrhea. Call it the amount of disease that often affects humans, the pharmaceutical industry are now actively researching a variety of vaccines to prevent it. Most of these vaccines are expected to circulate in the market within the next 5 years.
The development of vaccine technology in the world is growing rapidly. This gives a glimmer of hope for tackling the disease and improve health. Vaccine research is apparently slow, but really did not sleep.
Big profit from each vaccine patent pharmaceutical industry interest, besides of course the price of the vaccine itself. Even now a large number of funds used for the purposes of research and development. The result was they managed to create many new discoveries and innovations.
“Even the little things being done today will certainly achieve great success within the next 10 years. The period could be described as the golden era,” says Emilio Emini, head of vaccine research division of Pfizer.
The vaccine is now seen as essential for the growth of the pharmaceutical industry, primarily to offset the slow growth of prescription sales. If prescription drugs are predicted to grow in three to five years, sales of the vaccine was estimated twice as high.
According to market research institute, Kalorama Information, from 19 billion U.S. dollars last year, sales of vaccines will increase to 39 billion dollars in the year 2013. “Interestingly, when 25 years are still struggling in the research, has now become a real money,” said Robin Robertson, director of U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research Development Authority.
Jump in profit is due to a little more extensive use of the vaccine along with mandatory immunization recommendations for infants issued by the government. We have too many vaccines are required for adults.
In contrast to conventional drugs used to cure the disease, the vaccine used to prevent infection by increasing the natural immune system to fight the entry of the disease. The vaccine is created from viruses, bacteria, which have killed or weakened so that they generally cause infection.
In the future, vaccines will not only be limited to the injection, but also in the form of a sticker attached to the skin, pills, or nasal spray. So far the British pharmaceutical company, GlaxoSmithKline is still the largest vaccine maker in the world, defeated Merck & Co..
Unfortunately, advances in biotechnology innovation is still dominated by developed countries. The defeat of the countries in Asia in the field to compete in this innovative advances made this country, as a marketing target of the vaccine, which of course sold at a high price.
