เสริมเกราะภูมิคุ้มกัน ป้องกันไวรัส RSV ในผู้ป่วยเบาหวาน

RSV Vaccine (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) for diabetic patients is an important topic to pay attention to, as people with diabetes are considered a high-risk group for severe complications if they contract respiratory infections, especially the RSV virus, which is commonly found in the rainy and winter seasons.
&nbsp;
Did you know… diabetic patients are also another high-risk group that should prioritize prevention of the RSV virus.
&nbsp;
RSV vaccines recommended for adults, such as Abrysvo and Arexvy have been approved for use in the elderly and high-risk groups such as diabetic patients, heart disease, and chronic lung disease patients. It is recommended to get vaccinated once a year especially before the RSV outbreak season because diabetic patients have weaker immunity than the general population, resulting in a higher risk of viral infections including RSV, which can easily cause pneumonia or other severe complications.
&nbsp;
<h2>Why are diabetic patients at higher risk?</h2>
Diabetic patients have weaker immunity than the general population, making it easier for viruses or pathogens to cause severe symptoms, including the RSV virus. If infected, they may be at risk of complications such as
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Pneumonia</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Bronchitis</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Respiratory failure</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Hospitalization and possibly requiring mechanical ventilation</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>Benefits of RSV vaccination for diabetic patients</h2>
Currently, RSV vaccines for adults and high-risk groups such as those with chronic diseases or over 60 years old have been developed and approved for use in many countries, with the following benefits:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Helps reduce the severity of the disease</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Reduces the risk of RSV viral infection</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Reduces complications from respiratory infections</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Prevents severe illness that may affect blood sugar levels</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Reduces hospitalization rates and the risk of death</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>Who should consider getting the RSV vaccine?</h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Diabetic patients aged 60 years and older</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Diabetic patients with complications such as heart disease or lung disease</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Those in vulnerable groups such as caregivers of young children or those living in crowded places</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>Diabetes should not overlook RSV</h2>
RSV infection in diabetic patients can have more severe consequences than expected. Vaccination is an important method to prevent disease and reduce complications, allowing you to live confidently, healthily, and safely.
If you or your loved ones have diabetes, don’t wait! 
 
Pay special attention to immunity, especially during RSV outbreak seasons. If you want to assess your risk or plan for vaccination, it is recommended to consult with a endocrinologist and diabetes specialist at Phyathai 2 Hospital to receive close and safe care.
