Provincial Blood Coordinating Council exceeds blood requirement target
By: David M. Suyao
AGUSAN DEL SUR, Jan. 19 (PIA) -- The Provincial Blood Coordinating Council (PBCC), in partnership with the Philippine Red Cross Agusan del Sur Chapter (PRC-AdS) and the Provincial Health Office (PHO) of Agusan del Sur has coped with the blood requirements, exceeding its target for the year 2011 by 133 bags, with the Provincial Government of Agusan del Sur (PGAS) giving its full support by shouldering the financial requirements for the purchase of the re-agents used for blood examination.
For the year 2011, the PBCC team has collected a total of 2,633 bags of 450 ml. fresh blood thru field donation, replacement, walk-in clients and patient directed with a very little difference of 60 bags compared to last year with 2,693 bags.
The blood collection mostly came from field donation where a team of medical technologists from the D.O. Plaza Memorial Hospital (DOPMH), led by Napoleon Montejo, Provincial Blood Coordinator and PRC Agusan del Sur Chapter, led by medical technologist Julie Lapides regularly conducted monthly blood collection by municipality.
On record, field donation reached 2,538 bags, while replacement reached 38 bags, walk-in donors with 27 and patients directed to produce the needed blood, 30 bags.
Not only patients from the province of Agusan del Sur were served with the blood collected in Agusan del Sur, but also patients from as far as Kidapawan City, where two bags were sent for emergency use.
The DOPMH, noted for its facilities and good doctors, has patients also coming from neighbouring province, making it the number one consumer of blood with 2,008 bags consumed as of December 2011. Second is the Bunawan District Hospital with 146 bags. The rest went to hospitals in Butuan City, Surigao del Sur, Surigao City and Surigao del Norte.
According to records by the PBCC, male donors are dominant than female. Many were also found positive of Hepa B with 145 samples, Syphilis with 28, Hepa C- 13 and even HIV case with four. Sixty two bags expired, while six are spoiled chylous.
The provincial government set aside P1.5 million budget for the re-agents but because of the increase in its prices, supplementary budget amounting to P1.6 million was released on the fourth quarter of 2011. The 13 municipal government and the lone city of Bayugan also share P50,000 every year for the fuel and oil and other travelling expenses of the team that travel to all the municipalities during the conduct of the mobile blood donation activities.

These areas are Veruela, Esperanza, La Paz, San Luis, and Sibagat in Agusan del Sur; Carmen and Jabonga in Agusan del Norte; Tagbina, Marihatag, Hinatuan, Bayabas, and San Miguel in Surigao del Sur; and Pilar and Socorro in Surigao del Norte.

DOLE conducts philjob.net, Skill Registry System Orientation
TANDAG CITY, Jan. 19 (PIA) -- The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) here successfully conducted a two-day orientation (Jan 16-17) on philjob.net and Skill Registry System (SRS) at the Surigao del Sur State University (SDSSU).
According to Teofila Rosales, head of DOLE Provincial Office, this is in response to the request of said university through Assistant Guidance Counselor Vanessa Sanchez to provide graduating students knowledge on job seeking by using such windows.
It was learned that “philjob.net is an automated job and applicant matching system which aims to fast track jobseekers search for job and employers search for manpower.”
Also, the SRS is said to be a “repository of information on skills certification and accreditation, licensure, and local and overseas employment.” (Greg Tataro, Jr., Radyo Ng Bayan-Tandag/PIA-Surigao del Sur)

Feature: Foundation urges public to take thyroid cancer seriously
BUTUAN CITY, Jan. 19 (PIA) -- With the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer in Metro Cebu, the Eduardo J. Aboitiz Cancer Center (EJACC) of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI) urged the public to undergo early screening and prevention measures to fight the disease.
“Thyroid cancer is high on prognosis. It is preventable through various screening methods, such as physical examination and ultrasound of the neck, as well as some prevention measures, including regular exercise and maintenance of a well-balanced diet,” Ronald delos Reyes, EJACC program coordinator said.
Based on EJACC’s Metro Cebu Population-based Cancer Registry, the incidence rate of thyroid cancer in 2003 to 2007 is high but the mortality rate is comparatively lower.
Within this period, about 573 cases of thyroid cancer were reported and 116 were recorded to have died of the disease. The figures also show that 97 cases have been attributed to persons in between the ages 15-30 while 350 cases are persons with ages 30-60. More women than men have been affected by this disease; in fact, 134 cases are male while 439 cases are female.
As a common type of cancer diagnosed in men and women, thyroid cancer ranked sixth in most common cancer cases in Metro Cebu.
According to the 2010 journal of the Philippine Cancer Facts and Estimates of the Philippine Cancer Society, the incidence rate had increased from 1980 to 2002, with an annual change of 0.4 percent in males and 1.6 percent among females.
Thyroid cancer is the most common cancer of women at ages 15-24 years. Among women, the incidence rate rises at age 30 and continues to rise with increasing age. Among men, the incidence rate begins to increase much later, starting at 60 years old.
The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the front of the neck just below the Adam’s apple. It works like a tiny factory that uses iodine, mostly from the diet in foods like seafood and salt, to produce thyroid hormones that, in turn, help regulate the body’s growth and metabolism and other functions of the body.
The most common signs and symptoms of thyroid cancer include a lump or thyroid nodule, that can be felt in the neck; trouble in swallowing; throat or neck pain; swollen lymph nodes in the neck; cough; and vocal changes.
People exposed to high levels of radiation are much more likely than others to develop papillary or follicular thyroid cancer. Treatment with x-rays is one significant source of radiation exposure. Between the 1920s and the 1950s, doctors used high-dose x-rays to treat children who had enlarged tonsils, acne, and other problems affecting the head and neck. Later, scientists found that some people who had received this kind of treatment developed thyroid cancer.
People who are diagnosed with this kind of cancer may undergo surgery. Common surgeries include thyroidectory, lobectomy, and tracheostomy. Sometimes, even the removal of the thyroid itself is needed.
“Like many other cancers, thyroid cancer may be more easily cured with early detection. Earlier diagnosis removes thyroid cancer at a time when they are not likely to have spread beyond the thyroid gland,” delos Reyes said.
For more information about thyroid cancer, please contact EJACC at 254-6351and look for Gina Mariquit. (RAFI/PIA-Caraga)
