中老年慢性牙周炎患者生活质量现状及影响因素分析

Analysis of the status and influence factors of quality of life for middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic periodontitis

目的:调查中老年慢性牙周炎患者生活质量现状并分析其影响因素。方法:本文以2020年3月至2020年12月于天津医科大学口腔医院进行治疗的430例中老年慢性牙周炎患者为研究对象,采用一般资料调查表、慢性牙周炎患者生活质量量表和慢性牙周炎患者口腔保健自我效能量表进行调查分析。结果:中老年慢性牙周炎患者的生活质量得分为(32.08±5.87)分。多元线性结果显示,慢性牙周炎患者的龋齿情况、是否定期口腔检查、牙周炎严重程度和自我效能高低是影响其生活质量的主要因素(P<0.05)。结论:目前中老年慢性牙周炎患者的生活质量较差,有待提高。医护人员应重点关注中老年慢性牙周炎患者的龋齿情况和牙周炎严重程度,帮助其养成定期进行口腔检查的习惯,提高患者的自我效能水平,从而提高其生活质量。

Objective:To investigate the status of quality of life for middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic periodontitis and analyze the corresponding influence factors.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted for 430 patients with chronic periodontitis who got treated in the Stomatological Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from March 2020 to December 2020.Three questionnaires are adopted in our investigation,including the general information questionnaire,the oral health impact profile for chronic periodontitis(OHIP-CP)and the Self-Efficacy Scale for Self-care(SESS).Results:The average score of quality of life of middle-aged and elderly patients was 32.08±5.87.Multiple linear results showed that dental caries,regular oral examination,severity of periodontitis and self-efficacy were the main factors affecting the quality of life(P<0.05).Conclusion:The quality of life of middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic periodontitis is poor and should be improved.To improve patients’quality of life,medical staff should pay more attention to the status of their dental caries and the severity of their periodontitis,help them make a habit of conducting oral examination regularly,and improve the level of their self-efficacy.
