Abstract

This study explores the extensive consequences of pressure ulcers among bedridden patients. Pressure ulcers, also known as bedsores or pressure sores, pose significant health challenges for individuals with limited mobility. The research investigates the physical, psychological, and economic impacts of pressure ulcers on patients and the healthcare system. Physically, pressure ulcers can cause tissue damage and infections due to prolonged pressure on specific areas, leading to skin deterioration. Psychologically, patients suffering from pressure ulcers may experience pain, discomfort, anxiety, depression, and a reduced quality of life. Economically, managing pressure ulcers incurs substantial treatment costs, including specialized wound care products and frequent medical consultations. This study highlights the burden placed on healthcare systems and caregivers due to the demanding care required for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers are a prevalent and debilitating complication among bedridden patients, leading to significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. This study investigates the consequences of pressure ulcers on bedridden patients, identifies risk factors associated with their development, and explores demographic factors that increase their risk. Our findings indicate that pressure ulcers significantly impact patients' physical and psychological well-being, healthcare utilization, and quality of life. We identified key risk factors, including immobility, sensory impairment, poor nutrition, and inadequate care practices. Additionally, our analysis reveals significant demographic associations, with older adults, females, and those with comorbid diseases being more susceptible. This study highlights the urgent need for proactive prevention strategies, timely detection, and effective management to mitigate the consequences of pressure ulcers and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract

Insecurity is the phenomenon of being in a state where you are subject to danger or injury. It is the anxiety one experiences when he feels vulnerable and insecure. Therefore, this research study aims to investigate the causes of insecurity and the plight of rural dwellers in the Bauchi Local Government Area of ​​Bauchi State. However, the specific objectives of the study are to examine the nature and trends of insecurity, investigate causes of insecurity, find out the strategies that can be adopted to manage insecurity challenges, and understand the perceptions of people about insecurity in the Bauchi Local Government Area of ​​Bauchi State. We used a sample size of 100 respondents, consisting of adult males and females from four wards of the local government under study. The study adopted Durkheim's Theory of suicide. The study employed analytical tools such as frequency and percentage. We adopted both primary and secondary sources for data collection. In the field study and analysis, it was discovered that several illegal armed groups, ethnic militia groups, religious fundamentalists, and fanatics are evidence of insecurity in Nigeria. These groups have given rise to a series of incidents such as bombings, murders, arson, armed robberies, banditry, kidnapping, corruption, and injustice, all of which we hear about every day. These happenings are negatively affecting the Bauchi Local Government area in the Bauchi State of Nigeria politically, religiously, and culturally. Religious organizations and other humanitarian agencies are losing confidence in law enforcement agencies. This work, therefore, examines and shows the causes and effects of the political, religious, and cultural implications of insecurity in Nigeria. According to this research, there is a threat of political, economic, and civil destabilization if the trend of insecurity persists. This study recommends a stiffer penalty for perpetrators of violence and equipping law enforcement agencies with modern technological weapons, allowances, and proper recordkeeping.

However, the less educated are more likely to dispose of refuse by open dumping (p < 0.05), burning and burying (p < 0.05), and also more likely to hand carry refuse (p < 0.025) and transport refuse by wheel barrow (p < 0.025) than the more educated would do. Majority of the respondents (75.90%) have a centralized place for dumping solid waste and the commonest means of transports of waste was by wheel barrow (70.20%). The repeated measure regression was used to allow comparisons among the variables under each condition. For finding depicts many factors like current methods, source of information, types of waste generated and waste management practices of waste collection and disposal. The finding shows that if public and private sector provides necessary consideration and utilization of practice of west collection and disposal, and encouragement of awareness on the uses of recycling method and practice to the Bauchi Metropolis.
