Abstract

Purpose: To access and synthesize the existing literature about the effects of compassionate care on oral health outcomes.

Methods: A scoping review was performed following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines to identify articles from six electronic databases: MEDLINE via the PubMed interface, Embase, Age-Line, Scopus, CINAHL, and Cochrane.

Results: Among 30 studies reporting on compassion in dental treatment, only two reported on the effects of compassionate care on oral health outcomes. One study is cross-sectional and evaluated oral health outcomes in children, while the other is a cohort study evaluating oral health outcomes in older adults. Each study used different tools to assess oral health outcomes. However, both studies used the Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy (JSPE) to assess empathy among dental students, dentists, or dental hygienists.

Conclusion: The retrieved studies used different methodologies and had discrepant results. More clinical studies investigating the effects of compassionate care on the outcomes of dental treatment are necessary.

同情护理对口腔健康结果的影响：范围综述

目的：获取并综合有关体恤护理对口腔健康结果影响的现有文献。方法：根据系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目（PRISMA）指南进行范围审查，从六个电子数据库中识别文章：MEDLINE（通过PubMed界面）、Embase、Age-Line、Scopus、CINAHL和Cochrane。结果：在30项关于牙科治疗中的同情心的研究中，只有两项报告了同情心护理对口腔健康结果的影响。一项研究是评估儿童口腔健康结果的横断面研究，而另一项研究是评估老年人口腔健康结果的队列研究。每项研究都使用不同的工具来评估口腔健康结果。然而，这两项研究都使用了杰弗逊医师共情量表（JSPE）来评估牙科学生、牙医或牙科保健员的共情。结论：检索到的研究采用了不同的方法，结果存在差异。有必要进行更多的临床研究，调查同情心护理对牙科治疗结果的影响。
