INTRODUCTION Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition encountered in aging men and a common cause of lower urinary tract symptoms. Histological prevalence of BPH is common, and disease progression is associated with bladder outflow obstruction, this may present clinically in both the emergency surgical and outpatient clinical settings. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) — also called prostate gland enlargement — is a common condition as men get older. An enlarged prostate gland can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder. It can also cause bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems. The prostate gland is located beneath your bladder. The tube that transports urine from the bladder out of your penis (urethra) passes through the center of the prostate. When the prostate enlarges, it begins to block urine flow.
INTRODUCTION Background of the study Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) — also called prostate gland enlargement — is a common condition as men get older. An enlarged prostate gland can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder. It can also cause bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems. Problem of the study Benign prostatic hyperplasia—also called BPH—is a condition in men in which the prostate gland is enlarged and not cancerous. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is also called benign prostatic hypertrophy or benign prostatic obstruction. The prostate goes through two main growth periods as a man ages. The first occurs early in puberty, when the prostate doubles in size. The second phase of growth begins around age 25 and continues during most of a man’s life. Benign prostatic hyperplasia often occurs with the second growth phase.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The main purpose of this research proposal will be to investigate and make detailed research to promote and clearly identify the effect of benign prostatic hyperplasia on elderly patient in Bay Regional Hospital. RESEARCH OBJECTIVES General objectives The main objective is the effect of benign prostatic hyperplasia on elderly patient in by regional hospital. 2. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES To identify the effect of benign prostatic hyperplasia on elderly patient in by regional hospital. To describe most common causes of benign prostatic hyperplasia. To improve management of benign prostatic hyperplasia To describe prevention of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY SCOPE OF STUDY There are three dimensions of scope which are time, geography and content of scope. TIME SCOPE Time scope of the study started 01 March 2021 and ended 31 May 2021. GEOGRAPHICAL SCOPE The study will conduct in Baidoa district. The content scope will be The effect of benign prostatic hyperplasia on elderly patient in Bay Regional Hospital.
LITERATURE REVIEW AS CONCEPT
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY In this chapter the researchers will discuss and focused on research design, target population, sample size, sample techniques, research instrument, data collection, data analysis, validity and reliability and ethical consideration . The study area in this research will be Baidoa district Somalia. RESEARCH DESIGN The design of study was cross sectional study. This means that sample was selected from target group and information was obtained at the same time on a particular point in time. TARGET POPULATION The target population for the research is 60 residents in Baidoa district aged between 25 to 50 above.
SAMPLE SIZE The researcher will focus on 52 respondents were selected randomly. To determine the ideal sample size for a population, the study use sloven’s formula. SAMPLING TECHNIQUE N= is the target population n= is sample size e= is marginal errors 0.05*
DATE ANALYSIS Quantitative data analysis will be used in this study. Data were analyzed by using both of the statistical packages for social sciences (SPSS version 16) program and excel spreadsheet. RESEARCH LIMITATION The major limitation of this study were: lack of interned during preparation of this study. corona re-outbreak in Somalia especially southwest state caused by limitation of public meetings. lack of financial problems. inadequate of hospital professional the hospital authorities challenged as for security reasons cost of the questioner .vehicle and tools were very expensive because you need to print a lot of questioner letters
DATA ANALYSIS AND RESULTS This study has been conducted from 12st April 2021 to 13 April 2021 . The study design was Cross sectional and data was obtained from the respondents through questionnaire. This chapter deals with results of data analysis according to a data collection through questionnaire. The Data collection tools were planed and discussed how to collect quantitative data. After data collection analysis was done by use of scientific calculator and interpretation was published in SPSS worksheet and the results are presented in tables and charter as the flowing below.

Recommendations benign prostatic hyperplasia are strongly related and every patient presenting lower urinary tract infection should be checked by BPH. We conclude that lower urinary tract infection and benign prostatic hyperplasia are strongly related and therefore the following recommendations must be carried out for the proper diagnosis and proper treatment. To check benign prostatic hyperplasia in men patients between 45-90 yrs presenting lower urinary tract infection. Because of obstruction outflow the lower urinary tract infection may ascend in to upper urinary tract and cause more serious complication like pyelo nephritis and renal failure so should check kidney profile for every patient with lower urinary tract infection due to benign prostatic hyperplasia. According this research there is no reliability, Because of high prevalence of BPH in patient presenting LUTI we recommend other studies relating BPH complications.
Recommendations Surgery is recommended for patients who have renal insufficiency secondary to BPH, who have recurrent UTIs, bladder stones or gross hematuria due to BPH, and those who have LUTS refractory to other therapies. The presence of a bladder diverticulum is not an absolute indication for surgery unless associated with recurrent UTI or progressive bladder dysfunction. In men with no planned cataract surgery, there are insufficient data to recommend with holding or discontinuing alpha blockers for LUTS secondary to BPH.
