Abstract

In recent years, the method of wavelet analysis has been opened to researchers. Wavelet analysis analyses data at different level of decomposition and can capture the characteristics of data series in all decomposition level. In this research work, data was collected on the medical records of the inflow of patients for medication on Malaria fever and Anemia from Grimard Catholic Hospital Anyigba, Kogi State, Nigeria (1993 to 2014). The data was analysed by wavelet methods to detect the aberrant observations over the period under study for the two diseases respectively using a proposed threshold. A total of ten and nine Aberrant Observations (AOs) were detected from the analysis of the original data collected on Malaria Fever and Anemia respectively. At the first and second level of decomposition (resolution), a total of seven and one AO(s) were respectively detected for both Malaria Fever analysis and Anemia analysis. The results obtained showed that the AOs detected in the analysis of the original data maintain the same or closely the same positions as that obtained from the analysis of the decomposed data for the two diseases. It was observed that the inflow of patients in the months of September, October and November into the hospital for medication on the two diseases were more. The Time plot for Malaria Fever and Anemia in the appendix respectively showed that there was no month that fewer patients reported to the hospital for medication.
