Exercise & Fitness
Get Fit with a Fitness Buddy
Just about everybody knows that regular exercise brings many benefits – from increased energy to a stronger immune system to feeling generally happier and more at peace. So why is it so difficult for so many of us to get into a regular exercise routine? We know we need to, but we put it off for tomorrow, or next week or longer. It’s easy to make excuses, and hard to hold yourself accountable. Remember, people who are looking to get fit have a much better chance of being successful and sticking to their workouts when they have a partner. Like they say, there’s strength in numbers – even if that number is just two.

Having a partner who is more fit than you could encourage you to push yourself and increase your fitness threshold.

Teaming up with someone less fit than you could put you in a leadership role, which can increase your own confidence and motivation level.

Teaming up with a partner might increase the likelihood that you try new types of workouts – ones you might not have tried alone (for example, yoga, rock climbing, etc.).

EMERGENCY ROOM OR URGENT CARE? HOW TO KNOW WHERE TO GO FOR SUDDEN HEALTH CARE NEEDS
R
ecognizing the differences between “emergency” and “urgent” can be confusing, especially if the symptoms seem severe and your regular doctor’s office is closed. After all, both “emergency” and “urgent” indicate a medical need that needs to be addressed quickly. But there are important differences between hospital emergency rooms and traditional urgent care clinics, including the level of care that can be provided at each. “The biggest confusion centers around the definition of ‘emergency,’” said John Bradley, DO, Emergency Medicine, Shawnee Mission Health. “For example, if it’s something
you would typically have treated by your primary care doctor, then you should probably go to an urgent care location. In other words, go to urgent care if there isn’t immediate danger, but you need help more quickly than you can get an appointment with your regular doctor.” You can turn to urgent care for cuts that require stitches, skin rashes or infections, sprains, strains or mild asthma issues. Common symptoms like fever, the flu, ear pain, sinus pressure and sore throat are also treated. “But for anything that’s life-threatening or limbthreatening,” said Bradley, “you should go straight to the

emergency room.” Unlike typical urgent care clinics, emergency rooms can handle any and every medical situation. They are fully staffed with Board-certified ER physicians, and have ancillary staffing, which means access to a laboratory and radiology, along with surgical and medical consultants. And while urgent care clinics offer longer hours than most primary care doctors, ERs are open 24/7, 365 days a year. Of course, any medical intervention is better than none, so don’t hesitate to reach out to any emergency option if something doesn’t feel right.

verybody knows that when winter arrives, time seems to slow down. The days get shorter, the nights get longer and temperatures can drop to single digits. For many of us, that simply means a lot more time staying indoors – whether it’s watching Netflix, reading new books on Kindle or just napping in front of a cozy fire. While many people can still function even if they’re feeling a bit melancholy, for some, winter can bring a clinical form of depression called seasonal affective disorder, also known as SAD. Overall, about five percent of adults in the U.S. experience SAD, and it typically lasts about 40 percent of the year. It is more common among women than men. SAD has been linked to a biochemical imbalance in the brain prompted by shorter daylight hours and less sunlight in winter. People with SAD experience a significant dip in serotonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for mood, appetite, sleep, memory and libido. “Genetics, serotonin, circadian rhythms and exposure to light or darkness are all theorized to play a role in SAD,” said Michael Dye, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, Shawnee Mission Psychiatry. “Those with a family history of a mood disorder are more likely to experience a mood disorder themselves, increasing their risk for a seasonal component.” While many people can still function even if the “winter blues” leave them feeling a bit melancholy, others experience symptoms that meet the criteria for a serious mood disorder.

ON SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER
From Michael Dye, MSN, APRN, PMHNPBC, Shawnee Mission Psychiatry
Symptoms of wintertime SAD can include: Daytime fatigue Difficulty concentrating kkFeelings of hopelessness kkIncreased irritability kkLack of interest in social activities kkLethargy kkReduced sexual interest kkUnhappiness kkWeight gain kkIn severe instances, people with SAD can experience suicidal thoughts.
HOW DO YOU KNOW ‚ IF YOU RE EXPERIENCING SAD?
kk kk
When someone notices significant distress or problems functioning in everyday activities, like performing at work and maintaining healthy relationships, that’s the time to consult a professional for an evaluation. Of course, anyone feeling suicidal should seek immediate help. A doctor or psychiatrist will ask questions about your symptoms, and when you first noticed them. Generally, people with SAD tend to experience symptoms every year. Several tests – such as thyroid hormone testing with a simple blood test – may be recommended to rule out other conditions before you can be diagnosed with SAD.
Dealing with SAD ome people benefit from medications such as antidepressants. “A trained mental health professional can prescribe the appropriate medication, which is a highly individualized process,” said Dye. But lifestyle and home remedies can also make a big difference. “You can begin by ensuring you’re eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly. Exercise and other types of physical activity help relieve stress and anxiety, both of which can increase SAD symptoms. Being more fit can make you feel better about yourself, too, which can lift your mood. Sleep hygiene is also very important, which includes using your bedroom only for sleep, limiting caffeine intake and waking up at the same time each day regardless of which time you went to bed.” said Dye. Another remedy for SAD can be light therapy, which involves sitting in front of a light therapy box that emits very bright light (and filters out harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays). It usually requires 20 minutes or more a day, typically first thing in the morning, during the winter. Most people see some improvements from light therapy within one or two weeks of beginning treatment. “At a minimum, you should ensure your house has adequate lighting,” said Dye. For example, you can open blinds, trim tree branches that block sunlight or add skylights to your home. Sit closer to bright windows while at home or in the office. “When you wake up each morning, make it a habit to open each window curtain in your home to allow as much sunlight to enter as possible.”

Ask-A-Doctor
Lynda Brumley, MD,
geriatric medicine and internal medicine, on how pneumonia can affect the elderly. What are the most common causes of pneumonia? Are there different causes for older people? Pneumonia is generally either bacterial or viral. The most common cause of bacterial pneumonia in the U.S. is streptococcus pneumoniae, however 20-35 percent of pneumonias are viral in nature. The most common virus to cause pneumonia is influenza. Those who have been hospitalized or are in a nursing home/ rehab center or other group residence tend to get more serious infections. Why is pneumonia an especially serious problem for older people? Older people have a weaker immune system and a lower “reserve� to fight off illness. They also are more likely to have other illnesses that increase susceptibility
to infection initially and make it more difficult to treat. These other illnesses include diabetes, COPD, congestive heart failure, etc. What are the signs and symptoms of pneumonia in older people? Symptoms can include cough, chest pain with breathing/ coughing, elevated heart rate, elevated respiratory rate, shortness of breath, fever, (new) confusion, elevated white blood cell count, positive chest X-ray findings and low oxygen level. These symptoms and signs can be more subtle in elderly patients. Is treatment for pneumonia different for older people? The basic treatment is the same for all ages, but the severity of symptoms and other medical problems can dictate whether a patient needs hospital admission
10 | Shawnee Mission Health | FALL 2018
and IV antibiotics, close monitoring, or can be treated as an outpatient with oral antibiotics. If a person requires oxygen, or has extensive pneumonia on their X-ray, they would need hospitalization to start treatment. What are the best steps that older people can take to try and prevent pneumonia? Stop smoking. Get an annual flu shot every year. Get a pneumonia shot. There are now two types of pneumonia shots that cover different strains of pneumonia and both are recommended. If initial pneumonia vaccine was received prior to age 65, a repeat dose is recommended after five years.

The Facts
It’s That Time of Year. The open enrollment period for individual health insurance plans begins this Nov. 1 and closes on Dec. 15, 2018. Enroll365 is designed to help you evaluate options and easily enroll in health insurance. All plans cover essential health benefits, pre-existing conditions (including pregnancy), and preventive care. Enroll365 is comprised of independent insurance agents who can assist community members to sign up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act marketplace free of charge. Using Enroll365 will help make the process of getting insurance coverage through the exchange easier because a knowledgeable insurance agent will walk you through the process. The agent will be able to give advice on the best plan for your situation and will also be able to determine if you are eligible for financial assistance with premium payments. To register for Enroll365, call 888-612-3398 or go to Enroll365.org/ShawneeMission.
01
PREVENTATIVE CARE Most health plans cover certain services at 100 percent as preventative care if the criteria are met (e.g. age, gender).

COPAYMENT A set amount you pay for a health care service, usually before the service is rendered.
