Medical cannabis for wounded soldiers hospitalized in Sheba
10-09-2014
Medical cannabis joins the pain management system among wounded soldiers from Operation Tzuk Eitan. For the first time, treatment was given to the hospitalized soldiers in the orthopedic rehabilitation department at the rehabilitation hospital. The treatment is given by oil droplets and is performed under the supervision of a pain doctor from the department and does not have a metastatic effect. Dr. Yitzhak Zaki-Ner, Director of the Department of Orthopedic Rehabilitation: "Our guiding principle is as little suffering as possible for wounded soldiers. Pain is a disease and should be prevented. The treatment of cannabis oil is like medicine, and just as a drug is given in an informed dosage, so is medical cannabis. "
The treated soldiers suffer from severe pain and receive high doses of opiate analgesics. The cannabis oil drops are another option for them beyond the conventional drugs that reached the stage of extraction and did not provide a sufficient response to the pain.
Medical cannabis is given as mentioned in the form of oil droplets which is a extraction of the cannabis plant. It is administered in a measured manner and distributed as any drug under the supervision of a physician and in accordance with the instructions of the Ministry of Health. The subject of pain relief in the orthopedic rehabilitation department in Sheba, where more than 40 patients from the "Tzuk Eitan" operation are still hospitalized, is of paramount importance and the attitude towards it is broad. "There is always the danger that the pathways of pain to the brain will become chronic and chronic, hence the importance of treating pain, and we use the entire repertoire at our disposal and constantly seek solutions for pain, even those outside the box," explains Dr. Ziv-Ner.
For some of the injured wounded soldiers, this is a long process of rehabilitation, and sometimes requires a difficult struggle on many levels. "The rehabilitation of cannabis helps to balance the control and control of the pain and the level of vigilance and cooperation of the injured person with the rehabilitative program that is being built for him," explains Dr. Ziv-Ner, "The use of cannabis is another means on the shelf of treatment options. "Not everyone who wishes to receive will receive it, but on the other hand, he should not hesitate to use cannabis if he brings the desired goal," says Dr. Ziv-Ner. "The rehabilitation process is designed to bring the soldiers back to maximum function even after the injury.
The rehabilitation program is varied and includes all the necessary aspects such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and psychological therapy. The treatment of pain is one aspect of the whole that is intended to advance the rehabilitation process and bring the injured person to the best possible condition. "
