Abstract Summary and Conclusion 121 Summary and Conclusion Children are the most precious part of nation’s life and its promising future, so their survival, development and protection are basic responsibility. In our study we try to spot light on many diseases that affect children, especially those related to the urinary system because there is lack of indices and statistics of urological disorders, and also because many of the urological disorders are asymptomatic in their early stages. In our study we screen school children for some of the important findings like bacteruria, hematuria, proteinuria, and presence of bilharzial ova in the urine, our tool in the screening is the urinalysis, mainly the dipstick test as it does not need much experience, rapid and relatively inexpensive. We also made a microscopic urinalysis to detect. RBCs, pus cells, bilharzial ova to confirm the results of the dipstick urinalysis and to assess the sensitivity and spec’ificity of the dipstick. By this mean the following data was discovered. The prevalence of bacteruria was 3.3% as a total incidence. In boys the prevalence of bacteruria was 2.13% but in girls the prevalence was 4.77%. In primary Summary and Conclusion 122 school children (31%), preparatory school children (3.16%) and secondary school children (3.7%). The overall prevalence of hematuria in school children was 3.6%. Among girls the prevalence was 4.69% and among boy, it was 2.72%. In primary schools the prevalence of hematuria was 3.83%. In primary schools it was 3.83% preparatory school it was 3.7% and in secondary schools it was 3.5%. The prevalence of proteinuria was 1.08% in general, among boys it was 1.01 and among girls it was 1.17%. In primary school 1.1%, 0.93% in preparatory school and 1.2% in secondary schools. The general prevalence of schistosoma hematobium infection, was 2.9 . .In boys it was 2.9% and in girls it was 3.1, the prevalence in primary schools was 2.38%, in preparatory schools was 2.35% and in secondary schools it was 2.25%. By this way we could discover a lot of cases that had bacteruria hematuria, proteinuria and bilharzial infection and, as the previous findings constitutes an important indices to many urological disorders, we applied our investigations, like plain x-ray urinary tract, pelviabdominal ultrasound and intravenous pyelography to those children that had the previous findings. And by this system many diseases of urinary system was discovered. Summary and Conclusion 123 So from our study we concluded that the screening of urological disease by urinalysis, especially dipstick is a valuable method to suspect many diseases of the urinary system by this rapid, inexpensive and easy methods. Finally, it is recommended to use dipstick urinalysis for screening of urological diseases among school children, as it is rapid, easy and valuable method to discover the hidden urological diseases. |
