نوع مقاله : مقاله‌های پژوهشی

چکیده

مقدمه: تغییرات فیزیولوژیکی بدن مادر در دوران بارداری موجب حساسیت بیشتر این گروه نسبت به بیماری‌های دهان و دندان شده که می‌تواند بر سلامت مادر و کودک تأثیرات مهمی داشته باشد. جهت بهبود سلامت دهان و دندان مادر و سلامت نوزاد مراقبت‌های دندان‌پزشکی پیش از بارداری و طی دوره‌ی بارداری ضروری به نظر می‌رسد. هدف از این مطالعه، ارزیابی سواد سلامت دهان و دندان کارشناسان مامایی شاغل در مراکز بهداشت و درمان شهر اصفهان بود.
مواد و روش‌ها: این مطالعه‌ی توصیفی- تحلیلی بر روی 110 کارشناس مامایی شاغل در مراکز بهداشت و درمان شهر اصفهان در سال 1400-1399 انجام شد که با استفاده از پرسش‌نامه‌ی سطح سواد سلامت آن‌ها بررسی گردید. پرسش‌نامه شامل اطلاعات دموگرافیک (سن و سابقه‌ی کاری) و 17 سؤال در چهار حیطه‌ی (شنیداری، درک مطلب، توانایی خواندن و تصمیم‌گیری) و ارزیابی رفتار بهداشتی بود . داده‌ها با آزمون‌های آماری Kruskal-Wallis،  Mann–Whitneyو Spearman و Fisher تجزیه و تحلیل شدند (0/05 = α).
یافته‌ها: بین رفتارهای سلامت دهان و دندان و سطح سواد سلامت در کارشناسان مامایی تفاوت معنی‌دار وجود نداشت (0/449 = p value). بین امتیاز سواد سلامت دهان و دندان کارشناسان مامایی با میزان سن (0/693 = r، -0/038 = p value) و سابقه‌ی کار (0/325 = r، 0/095- = p value) تفاوت معنی‌داری وجود نداشت.
نتیجه‌گیری: سواد سلامت دهان و دندان کارشناسان مامایی در حد مطلوب بود. و سواد سلامت با سن و سابقه کار ارتباط معناداری نداشت. برای افزایش میزان سواد سلامت می‌توان دوره‌های آموزش بیشتر در بازه‌های زمانی مشخص در دستور کار مراکز درمانی قرار گیرد.

Evaluation of Oral Health Literacy Among Midwifery Experts Working in Isfahan Health Centers

چکیده [English]

Introduction: The physiological changes in the mother's body during pregnancy make this group more sensitive to oral and dental diseases, which can have important effects on the health of the mother and the child. To improve the oral and dental health of the mother and the health of the baby, dental care before pregnancy and during pregnancy seems necessary. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of oral health literacy in midwifery experts working in Isfahan health centers.
Materials and Methods: This research is descriptive and cross-sectional and 110 questionnaires answered by midwifery experts were selected for review in this study. The questionnaire used in this study includes two demographic questions in the field of age and work experience of midwifery experts and 20 questions about measuring oral health literacy. The data were analyzed with chi-square and Fisher's exact test (α = 0.05).
Findings: No relationship was observed between oral health behavioral habits and health literacy level in midwifery experts (p value = 0.449). There was no significant relationship between the oral health literacy score of midwifery experts with age (p value = -0.338, r = 0.693) and work experience (p value = -0.095, r = 0.325).
Conclusion: According to this study, it can be concluded that the oral health literacy of midwifery experts is sufficient, but the need for more training to increase the updating of information of midwives in Isfahan is felt.
