Clinical Cross-sectional Study to Identify the Prevalence of Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in Type II Diabetic Patients at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences Srikakulam
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the common diseases affecting a large of population throughout the world. It is an endocrine disorder affecting the physical, psychological, and social health of an individual, WHO has defined diabetes as not merely but affecting a “state of complete physical, mental, and the social well-being. Materials and Methods: Outpatients attending medicine Outpatient Department in Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Science Srikakulam, were taken into this study to know the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteria (ASB) in Type II Diabetic patients and non-diabetic patients, i.e., taken 2 Groups (a). Group A: Positive for diabetic. (b) Group B: Negative for diabetic. 103 patients in the study population (Group A), 50 patients in control group (Group B), 50% of the sample size were taken for the control group. Results: Out of 153 randomly selected patients 103 was found to be diabetic hence they recruited in the study group. Out of 103 patients, 58 (56.3%) were females, and 45 (77%) were males in the study population. All the patients were in age 30–80 years with an age of 42 ± 10.6 years. Non-diabetic 50 patients were included in the control group who were in the age 75 years with mean age of 48 ± 8.9 years. Control group consist of 28 (56%) male and (44%) females. Conclusion: The incidence and prevalence of ASB are high in diabetic population compared to non-diabetic group. ASB is one of the important risk factors for renal complications in diabetic population. Diverse pathogenic microbial diaspora is responsible for ASB. Close monitoring of antibiotic sensitivity shall improve the control of ASB and thereby score over the risk reduction of renal complications in diabetic patients.
