1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study has revealed that the awareness of the existence of sexual
transmitted disease. Through this study, their causes, sources and mode
of transmission have been have been highlighted. Having known all
these a greater result can be achieved by embarking on the program
against sexually transmitted disease, such as making use of condom as
one of the preventive measures and total abstinence as another measure.
Another important significance is that, the health standard of the
people is improved, while the death effect and other consequences of
sexually transmitted diseases are minimized by profiling good medical
attention and the use of skilled practitioners.
Finally, by
achieving all these goals, we can have a good social economic planning
for the present and future generation.
1.5 SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS
The
Federal Medical Centre Umuahia (FMC) is my scope of study. It has ten
wards (10) two medical ward on each for male and female, two surgical
wards one each for male and female, two surgical wards one each for male
and female, maternity wards with eighty (80) beds, one ward with forty
(40) beds for booked patients while the other is for unbooked patients.
Other are the pediatrics ward with twenty (20) beds and a gynecological
ward with fourty (40) beds. But my area of concentration is based on the
steadily increase of the sexually transmitted diseases (STDS). And we
are taking a more look at the four varieties of sexually transmitted
diseases (STDS). And we are taking a more look at the four varieties of
sexually transmitted disease (STDS) such as gonorrhea, syphilis,
arthritis and Aids. This study is faced with a lot of limitations and
some problems encountered din the project research must not be
overlooked. Some problems as: problem of finance, a lot of expense was
made on the process of collecting the data. Time factor is another
problem that delays the collection of data.
In addition,
the duplication of the data and the production of this project work also
included. On this note I was to study records from the year 1995 –
2002. This further more confined to the statistical analysis only,
which has to do with the incidence rate of the sexually transmitted
disease under study as arranged or grouped into sex, age groups and
years. There will also be some forecast or production of the type of
sexually transmitted disease under study in a specifically year to come.
1.5 SCOPE AND LIMITATION
The
Federal Medical Centre Umuahia (FMC) is my scope of study. It
has ten wards (10) two medical wards (2) on each for male and female,
two surgical wards (2) one each for male and female etc. But my area of
concentration is based on the steady increase of the sexually
transmitted diseases (STDS) such as Gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV/AIDS,
Arthritis. This study is faced with a lot of limitations and some
problems encountered in the project research must not be overlooked.
Some problems are
i. Problem of finance
ii. Time factor while delays the collection of data
1.6 FOR THE HYPOTHESIS
i.
The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between age group.
This means that the incident rate of age group is the same. The
alternative hypothesis is that the incident rate of age group differ
which reconcile that the incident rate is not he same.
ii.
The null hypothesis is also used for the incident rate sex that means
that there is no difference between incident rate of sex then. The
alternative hypothesis is that the incident rate of sex is differ which
states that the incident rate of sex is not the same.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]The entire project work/study talks about the full meaning of the STDS. The causes of the sexually transmitted diseases were found out to be virus and bacteria which can be transmitted from one person to another predominantly through sexual contact. The scope of the study was also special and federal medical center Umuahia (FMC) was used as a case study. One of the studies carried out by Dr. A.U. Mbanuso at the Federal Medical center Umuahia 1990 – 1993. His result showed that the ... Continue reading---
