Midstream urine samples were collected in sterile containers and transported to the laboratory for analysis using reagent strips. The procedure involved deep insertion of the strip into fresh urine, followed by immediate removal and comparison of color changes against a standardized chart after 10 seconds. Results indicated a prevalence rate of 26.3% (40 out of 152) for glucosuria among the sampled population. Analysis by age groups showed higher prevalence rates in older age categories, with 27.5% among those aged 40-49 years. Gender-based analysis revealed a higher incidence among females (67.5%) compared to males (32.5%). These findings underscore the significance of routine screening for glucosuria during antenatal care to facilitate early detection and appropriate management, thereby improving maternal and fetal health outcomes....Preview Download Preview +Other Medical Laboratory Science project topics and materials you might be interested in»Assessement of haematological parameter of Tuberculosis (TB) infected patients at General Hospital Idah, Kogi state»Perception of the routine HIV-AIDS test done in Madonna University among Madonna University students»Self-medication and its associated factors among pharmacy students of Madonna University, Elele»The role of bioinformatics in pancreatic cancer diagnosis and therapy»Natural treatment for otitis externa»Prevalence of some soil transmitted helminths in central primary school Tilden Fulani Toro lga Bauchi state»Packed Cell Volume (PCV) among pregnant women attending antenatal care at General Hospital, Gboko»The prevalence of hepatitis B among students of College of Health Technology, Akaajime Gboko, Benue state»Prevalence of plasmodiasis (malaria) among pregnant women at General Hospital, Gboko»Determination of glucosuria among pregnant women attending antenatal care at General Hospital Gboko, Benue State
