摘要

背景:虽然被临床医生和患者广泛接受，但远程牙科目前还不是澳大利亚公共口腔卫生服务中广泛使用的护理模式。本定性研究旨在通过确定远程牙科作为一种护理模式的可接受性和适当性来审查和评估牙科临床医生的看法。方法:对悉尼某地方卫生区12名参加过远程牙科会诊的公共牙科医生进行有目的的抽样调查。焦点小组讨论的内容逐字记录下来，并进行专题分析。结果:远程牙科学对大多数参与者来说是一个新颖的概念，并被广泛接受。参与者重视标准化咨询模板的使用以及与其他牙科临床医生的有效沟通，以支持远程牙科的实践。然而，许多人发现试图通过电话与患者联系是困难的，而且患者对管理过程和技术困难感到沮丧。结论:远程牙科在公共卫生系统中具有发展和扩大的潜力。根据本研究的意见，作者建议需要进一步研究远程牙科的疗效，以协助发展一种有利于牙科临床医生和患者的护理模式。©2023澳大利亚牙科协会。

Dental clinicians' perceptions on the use of tele-dentistry consultations during COVID-19 within public dental clinics in Sydney, Australia

Background

Although well accepted by clinicians and patients, teledentistry is not currently a widely used model of care within Australian public oral health services. This qualitative study aimed to review and evaluate dental clinicians' perceptions, by determining the acceptability and appropriateness of teledentistry as a model of care.

Methods

A purposive sample of 12 public dental practitioners employed by a Local Health District in Sydney, and who had participated in teledentistry consultations, were recruited to participate in focus groups. Focus group discussions were transcribed verbatim and subjected to thematic analysis.

Results

Teledentistry was a novel concept for most participants and was well accepted. Participants valued the use of a standardized consultation template as well as effective communication with other dental clinicians to support the practice of teledentistry. However, many found attempting contact with patients over the telephone difficult as well as the perceived patient frustration with the administration process and technological difficulties experienced.

Conclusion

Teledentistry has the potential for growth and expansion in the public health system. From the opinions in this study, the authors propose further research is needed into the efficacy of teledentistry to assist with the development of a model of care that would be beneficial for dental clinicians and their patients. © 2023 Australian Dental Association.
