Compliance of Special Health Care Needs and Healthy Pediatric Patients with Preventive Visits after Dental Treatment under General Anesthesia.
Purpose: To identify compliance of special health care needs and healthy pediatric patients with preventive dental appointments after treatment under general anesthesia (GA). Methods: Records of special health care needs (SHCN) patients treated under GA in 2015 and 2016 were reviewed. The control group consisted of randomly selected healthy patients also treated under GA in the same time period and hospital. Patient demographics were compared, and the number of preventive visits was recorded for 24 months after GA. Results: The sample consisted of 141 SHCN patients and 142 healthy children. The average number of preventive visits post-GA appointment was 2.74 out of a recommended nine visits over two years for the study population. There was a statistically significant difference in the level of compliance based on age and referral source, but there was no difference based on health status. Conclusion: Compliance with preventive dental visits after treatment under GA among all pediatric patients, regardless of health status, must be improved. Caregivers must be further educated to implement change and barriers to care must be explored.
期刊介绍:
Acquired after the merger between the American Society of Dentistry for Children and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry in 2002, the Journal of Dentistry for Children (JDC) is an internationally renowned journal whose publishing dates back to 1934. Published three times a year, JDC promotes the practice, education and research specifically related to the specialty of pediatric dentistry. It covers a wide range of topics related to the clinical care of children, from clinical techniques of daily importance to the practitioner, to studies on child behavior and growth and development. JDC also provides information on the physical, psychological and emotional conditions of children as they relate to and affect their dental health.
