Abstract

Background: General anesthesia (GA) in dentistry is crucial for managing patients with special needs, enabling comprehensive care for individuals who cannot tolerate conventional procedures. This study aimed to analyze the demographic characteristics and trends in dental treatments performed under GA.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 2,458 dental treatments performed under GA at Dankook University Jukjeon Dental Hospital was conducted between January 2015 and October 2024. Data on sex, age, GA duration, and type of disability were collected and analyzed.

Results: Of the 2,458 cases, 89.5% (2,199) involved patients with disabilities. Male patients accounted for 60.0% of the total cohort, and 61.3% of patients with disabilities were male. The mean age of patients was 34.1 ± 13.4 years, with younger patients more frequently treated under GA. Intellectual disabilities were the most prevalent (56.3%) followed by autism spectrum disorder (14.6%). The average GA duration was 174.8 ± 61.5 minutes, with longer durations observed in patients with disabilities (177.2 ± 61.1 minutes).

Conclusion: The increasing demand for GA, particularly among patients with disabilities, underscores the need for tailored guidelines and enhanced education on dental treatment performed under GA. These findings provide a foundation for future policy development.

对韩国一所地区性大学牙科医院十年来对残疾患者牙科治疗进行全身麻醉的回顾性分析。
背景:牙科全麻(GA)对于管理有特殊需要的患者至关重要,可以为不能忍受常规手术的个体提供全面的护理。本研究旨在分析在GA下进行牙科治疗的人口统计学特征和趋势。方法:回顾性分析檀国大学竹田牙科医院2015年1月至2024年10月间在GA下进行的2458例牙科治疗。收集和分析性别、年龄、GA持续时间和残疾类型的数据。结果:2458例患者中,89.5%(2199例)为残疾患者。男性患者占总队列的60.0%,残疾患者中男性占61.3%。患者的平均年龄为34.1±13.4岁,年轻患者更常接受GA治疗。智力障碍最为普遍(56.3%),其次是自闭症谱系障碍(14.6%)。平均GA持续时间为174.8±61.5分钟,残疾患者持续时间更长(177.2±61.1分钟)。结论:对牙科治疗的需求不断增加,特别是在残疾患者中,这强调了有必要制定有针对性的指南,并加强对牙科治疗的教育。这些发现为未来的政策制定奠定了基础。
