简介橡胶坝(RD)系统是全球公认的牙科治疗不可或缺的组成部分,确保最高标准的护理。RD隔离的使用对牙科手术的临床方面产生了深远的影响。这项研究的目的是评估牙科学生对使用RD的态度,重点是评估麦加市UmmAl-Qura大学学生中影响其使用的因素,沙特阿拉伯王国。方法对UmmAl-Qura大学临床年的203名牙科本科生进行在线问卷调查。问题涵盖各个方面,包括RD使用的频率,对其有效性的看法,以及未来使用的潜在意图,以及影响这些态度的因素。使用SPSS软件第26版(IBMCorp.,Armonk,NY,美国)。此外,卡方检验和Fisher-Freeman-Halton精确检验用于在P<0.05的显著性水平下比较数据。结果调查问卷由191名参与者完成,有效率为95.5%。在学生中,189(99%)在手术期间使用RD进行粘合剂修复。此外,157名(82.2%)学生同意,没有RD申请就无法实现适当的隔离。RD应用的所有优势得到165名(85.9%)学生的认可。值得注意的是,限制RD申请的因素与学生学年之间存在显著关联(p<0.05),高年级学生报告的限制较少。答复表明,163(85.3%)的学生接受了令人满意的RD培训,165(86.4%)的学生有很高的意愿在毕业后继续使用RD。结论在本研究的局限性内,可以得出结论,结果对RD的使用持积极态度。然而,继续有必要加强教育并倡导一致的RD应用,以改善患者护理和临床结局.
Introduction The rubber dam (RD) system is globally recognized as an indispensable component of dental treatments, ensuring the highest standards of care. The use of RD isolation profoundly impacts the clinical aspects of dental procedures. The aim of this
study was to assess the attitudes of dental students toward the use of RD, with an emphasis on evaluating the factors influencing its use among students at Umm Al-Qura University in Makkah city, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods An online questionnaire was distributed to a population sample of 203 undergraduate dental students in their clinical years at Umm Al-Qura University. Questions covered various aspects, including the frequency of RD use, perceptions of its effectiveness, and prospective intentions for its future use, as well as factors influencing these attitudes. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software Version 26 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). In addition, the chi-square test and Fisher-Freeman-Halton exact test were used for the comparison of the data at a significance level of p<0.05. Results The questionnaire was completed by 191 participants, with a response rate of 95.5%. Of the students, 189 (99%) used RD during operative procedures for adhesive restorations. Furthermore, 157 (82.2%) students agreed that proper isolation cannot be achieved without RD application. All the advantages of RD application were recognized by 165 (85.9%) of the students. Notably, there was a significant association between the factors limiting the RD application and the students\' academic year (p<0.05), with senior students reporting fewer limitations. Responses indicated that 163 (85.3%) of the students received satisfactory training for RD and 165 (86.4%) students had a high intention to continue using RD following graduation. Conclusion Within the limitations of this
study, it can be concluded that the results presented a positive attitude toward RD use. However, there is a continued necessity to enhance education and advocate consistent RD application for improved patient care and clinical outcomes.
