摘要

背景:牙科护理机构会产生大量的生物医疗废物,如手术针头、刀片、电线、支架、拔出的牙齿、人体组织、废弃或过期的药物和牙科材料,这些都受到血液和唾液的高度污染。应在单独的彩色编码袋或容器中进行分离和收集;根据2016年印度环境和森林部的《生物医药废物规则》。废物管理不善会给公众、患者和专业人员带来高风险,也会导致环境退化。目的:评估正畸医生和执业全科牙医对生物医学废物管理的知识和意识。材料和方法:通过谷歌表格(基于电子的调查)对全科执业牙医进行横断面研究;调查包括18个封闭式问题。结果:83.8%的执业牙医在医院或诊所遵守生物医学废物处理政策,其中91%的牙医在处理生物医学废物时使用防护屏障(如手套、口罩)。63.1%的人正确处理了人体解剖废物和血液污染废物,只有55.9%的人将提取的牙齿和人体组织装在黄色袋子里。焚烧灰烬的管理与正畸医生的资格之间存在显著关联(p=0.019),并且经验不足1年的医生具有适当的知识;(p=0.021)。全科医生对巴黎膏药的处理进行了适当的管理(p=0.039)。普通牙医和正畸医生对尖锐物的管理使用了针头破坏者(p=0.041)。结论:安全有效地管理生物医学废物是法律上的必要性,也是牙医的社会责任,根据目前的调查,7-9.2%的牙医没有有效地遵循生物医学废物管理。

KNOWLEDGE AND AWARENESS ON MANAGEMENT OF BIOMEDICAL WASTE AMONG ORTHODONTISTS AND GENERAL DENTAL PRACTITIONERS
Background: Dental care facilities generate a high amount of Biomedical Waste (BMW) like sharps such as surgical needles, blades, wires, brackets, extracted teeth, human tissues, discarded or expired medicines and dental materials, highly contaminated with blood and saliva. Segregation and collection should be done in separate colour coded bags or containers; according to Biomedical Waste Rules, 2016 the Ministry of Environment and Forest in India. Poor management of wastes leads to high risk to public, patients and professionals and also contributes to environmental degradation. Aim: To assess the knowledge and awareness on management of biomedical waste management among orthodontists and practicing general dentists. Materials and methods: A cross sectional study was conducted through Google form (electronic based survey) among general practising dentists; survey consisted of 18 closed ended questions. The data collected were tabulated in Microsoft Excel and exported to SPSS, descriptive statistics and Chi-Square test was performed (p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant). Results: 83.8% practising dentists follow the biomedical waste disposal policy in their hospital or clinic, among which 91% use protective barriers (e.g. gloves, masks) during handling of biomedical waste. 63.1% disposed human anatomical waste and blood contaminated waste properly where only 55.9% disposed extracted teeth and human tissue in yellow bags. Significant association was found between management of incinerated ash and qualification among orthodontists ( p=0.019) and with experience of less than 1 year had proper knowledge; (p=0.021). Disposal of plaster of Paris was properly managed among general practioners (p=0.039). Management of sharps was done properly using needle destroyers among general dentists and orthodontists (p=0.041). Conclusion: Safe and effective management of biomedical waste is a legal necessity but also a social responsibility of dentists, according to this present survey 7 – 9.2 % of the dentists are not effectively following the biomedical waste management.
