This poll aims to determine public awareness regarding the inappropriate usage of antibiotics. In the Dhamrai and Noakhali area, feedback made with questionaries’ was being distributed oneon-one, face-to-face. While 66% of respondents were unaware of the true reason for using antibiotics, 34% of respondents were aware of it. Antibiotic resistance is known to affect 13% of respondents, whilst 87% of respondents were unaware of it. 53% of respondents said they had not finished their antibiotic dosage. Even after the symptoms subsided, they did not finish the entire antibiotic prescription 47% of respondents said they had finished their antibiotic prescription. 79% of respondents said they had no trouble getting antibiotics without a prescription. In response, 21% said they haven't been purchasing antibiotics without them. 88% of participants, or the majority, said they were unconscious of the negative effects of antibiotic resistance. People continue to use antibiotics because they are unaware of the hazards associated with antibiotic resistance. In response, 78% said they were unaware of the prudent use of antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance steadily rises as a result of a lack of understanding regarding the responsible use of medication. Various people have used various kinds of antibiotics. Of those surveyed, 35% said they had taken azithromycin often. 11% took cefuroxime, 17% metronidazole, and 21% ciprofloxacin. Initiatives to enhance antibiotic prescribing and infection control procedures may be jeopardized by differences in medical professionals' knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs..

Regarding this particular situation, Pharmacist execute a function that is absolutely critical and they occupy a distinctive position within the healthcare system due to the substantial function they execute, which is to facilitate the communication between prescribers and patients and they are widely recognised as frontrunners in the field of antibiotic treatment administration and distribution owing to their accessible nature to the general public and extensive knowledge of pharmaceuticals that is why components of this policy include the education of patients regarding the proper utilisation of antibiotics, the prevention of antibiotic misuse, and the observance of prescribed treatments. Furthermore, Pharmacist assume a substantial role in antimicrobial stewardship endeavours, which strive to minimise the transmission of resistant microorganisms and minimise the negative consequences of antibiotic use while simultaneously achieving optimal disease treatment and they are frequently required to perform duties such as evaluating antibiotic prescriptions, monitoring medication interactions, and providing feedback on treatment modifications as part of their participation in these programmes project Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT http://dspace.daffodilvarsity.edu.bd:8080/handle/123456789/15049 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dspace.daffodilvarsity.edu.bd:8080/handle/123456789/15048 A Comprehensive Survey of Older Citizens Experiences Seeking Medical Care in Kaliakair,gazipur Hossain, Md.

Although some studies on eye disease have been conducted in Bangladesh with a little range or on a specific eye disease, our aim to determine prevalence, knowledge and awareness regarding eye diseases among the undergraduate students at a private university of Dhaka city, Bangladesh. Method and Materials A cross-sectional health survey was conducted using a self-designed standard questionnaire which was developed in English. Total 100 students participates from various departments of the university. The students were randomly selected and requested to fill up the questionnaire. Result The participants ranged in age from 18 to 29 years. The number of male participants (66%) was greater than that of female participants (34%). Most students (86%) came from middle-class families. The results showed that most participants were knowledgeable about the definitions of red eye, blurred vision, cataract, and vision loss, while knowledge about diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and trachoma was comparatively low. Participants with eye diseases also reported having other conditions such as tumors, anemia, asthma, and peptic ulcers. Regarding their current eye problems, about 55% of the students were not taking any action, while 40% were consulting eye care providers. Most eye patients (76.8%) were having their eyes checked by ophthalmologists, typically when they faced problems. A significant portion of the participants (69.2%) used spectacles for clear vision. The results suggest that participants were aware of eye care services, with hospitals being their preferred place for such services. Most participants obtained their information from family members. Additionally, 76% of the participants were aware of risk factors for eye disease, such as sunlight, smoking, and obesity. However, 90% of the participants had not taken part in any eye health campaigns. Conclusion Our survey revealed that the younger generation lacks sufficient knowledge and awareness regarding prevalent eye illnesses. Their comprehension is not as thorough as it ought to be. The government must design successful eye care campaigns and support health awareness programs in order to address this problem. These programs are essential to lowering visual impairment in Bangladesh's general populace as well as among students in Dhaka Project Tue, 02 Jul 2024 00:00:00 GMT http://dspace.daffodilvarsity.edu.bd:8080/handle/123456789/15039 2024-07-02T00:00:00Z
