Abstract

ABSTRACT Background This study investigates the use of health and dental care services in adults with intellectual disability in the last 12 months according to Norwegian recommendations and in relation to age and intellectual disability levels. Method A cross-sectional community-based survey including 214 participants (56% men). POMONA health indicators were used for data collection. Results Health checks and contact with general practitioners in the last year increased with age but were less frequent in those with more severe intellectual disability. Hospital admissions were age independent. Less than one-fifth of women had undergone cancer screening, with small variations according to intellectual disability severity levels. Few had an individual plan. More than one-third experienced poor dental health despite frequent controls. Conclusions The use of health checks was lower than recommended, especially in individuals with more severe intellectual disability. Service access and individual plan use need to be enhanced, and dental care services should be improved. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03889002

与年龄和智力残疾程度相关的智力残疾成人的保健和牙科保健服务的使用情况

摘要背景本研究根据挪威的建议，调查了过去12个月内智障成年人使用健康和牙科护理服务的情况，以及与年龄和智障水平的关系。方法一项基于社区的横断面调查，包括214名参与者（56%为男性）。POMONA健康指标用于数据收集。结果去年的健康检查和与全科医生的接触随着年龄的增长而增加，但在那些智力残疾更严重的人中，这种情况不那么常见。入院与年龄无关。不到五分之一的女性接受过癌症筛查，根据智力残疾的严重程度，差异很小。很少有人有个人的计划。尽管进行了频繁的控制，但超过三分之一的人的牙齿健康状况不佳。结论健康检查的使用率低于建议水平，尤其是在智力残疾更严重的人群中。需要加强服务的获取和个人计划的使用，并改善牙科护理服务。试验注册：ClinicalTrials.gov标识符：NCT03889002

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
