Improper clinical use
Because our country strictly controls the source of plasma, there are few blood products. In order to alleviate the shortage of human albumin, China has approved the human albumin products of eight foreign companies to enter the China market. The approval of plasma collection stations abroad is not as complicated as that in China. Pharmaceutical companies can set up their own plasma stations to collect plasma, just report it). Therefore, human albumin is also a rare drug with the price of imported drugs lower than that of domestic drugs. Even with imported products, the supply of human albumin is still tight.
In such a tight supply situation, human albumin has been ranked second in the drug list of sample hospitals for seven consecutive years. The problem of improper clinical use of human albumin is actually very serious, which is basically caused by drugs without indications. Even for some ineffective and incurable diseases, the first thing that comes to mind is the infusion of human albumin?
Improper use in life
1, as a nutritional product.
Just listening to the name of human albumin, it is not difficult to imagine the fact that some people regard human albumin as a nutrient. Albumin is usually found in blood routine reports, but doctors usually tell them to strengthen nutrition only when albumin is low, which means albumin is usually a manifestation of malnutrition. Therefore, some parents and friends look around and buy human albumin for their children, or give them injections or even give them orally. Just ... Treat the disease and strengthen the body? To the extreme.
The human body can synthesize albumin by itself, and albumin is low. In addition to finding reasons, you can also supplement nutrition from your diet. External infusion will disturb the body's own albumin synthesis, so it is better to eat an egg.
2, can improve immunity.
Even some dignitaries are buying human albumin through various channels, saying that it can improve immunity. Talking about immunoglobulin may help to resist some diseases, but human albumin really doesn't. Tight supply, coupled with blind abuse, has led to high prices. In this way, it will gradually become the privilege of the rich and related people.
The real function of human albumin
Human albumin, as its name implies, is albumin extracted from human blood. Throughout the instructions of any human albumin manufacturer, there are no more than the following indications: shock caused by hemorrhagic trauma and burn, increased intracranial pressure caused by brain edema and brain injury, edema or ascites caused by cirrhosis and nephropathy, prevention and treatment of hypoproteinemia, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, adjuvant treatment for cardiopulmonary bypass, burn, adjuvant treatment of hemodialysis and adult respiratory distress syndrome.
In fact, albumin has three main effects on human body, namely, increasing blood volume and maintaining plasma colloid osmotic pressure, transport function and nutrient supply. Some operations or injuries are more prone to hypoalbuminemia. At this time, the doctor will give a certain amount of human albumin to maintain plasma osmotic pressure, reduce postoperative tissue edema and promote wound healing. Well, it can be considered as an indication drug.
Human albumin is not magic at all. I advise you not to abuse it again. Leave it to the patients who really need it, and it will be regarded as saving lives. There is no limit to merit!
