Sažetak | Cilj: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je procijeniti i usporediti kvalitetu života ovisnu o oralnom zdravlju (OHRQoL) u ispitanika kojima je po prvi put dijagnosticiran bruksizam u usporedbi s kontrolnim ispitanicima koji taj poremećaj nemaju.
Materijali i metode: U ovom istraživanju sudjelovalo je ukupno 69 ispitanika, 38 kojima je dijagnosticiran bruksizam i 31 ispitanik bez tog poremećaja. Istraživanje je provedeno pomoću OHIP-14 upitnika koji su ispitanici ispunjavali nakon provedenog kliničkog pregleda. OHIP-14 upitnik sastojao se od 14 pitanja. Odgovori su zabilježeni na Likertovoj ljestvici u rasponu od 0 (nikad) do 4 (jako često).
Rezultati: U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 69 ispitanika od čega 32 (46,4%) žene i 37 (53,6%) muškaraca. Ispitanici su bili podijeljeni u dvije skupine, ispitivana i kontrolna. Prosječna dob ispitanika bila je 25,45±4,89 godina. Ukupna vrijednost zbroja bodova OHIP-14 upitnika u ispitivanoj skupini iznosila je 7,26 ± 5,34 bodova, dok je u kontrolnoj skupini zbroj bio 10,97±10,17 (P = 0,291). Najviši zbroj bodova u obje skupine bio je u kategoriji “Psihološka nelagoda” (ispitivana skupina 2,86±1,84 bodova vs. kontrolna skupina 3,35±2,19 bodova, P=0,061).
Zaključak: Rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazali su kako nije bilo statistički značajne razlike u kvaliteti života ovisnoj o oralnom zdravlju u ispitanika s bruksizmom i onih koji taj poremećaj nemaju. |
Sažetak (engleski) | Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in patients who were newly diagnosed with bruxism in comparison to those who did not have that condition.
Materials and methods: A total of 69 subjects participated in this study, 38 with bruxism and 31 subjects who did not have that condition. The study was conducted using the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) questionnaire, which subjects completed after a clinical examination. The OHIP-14 questionnaire consisted of 14 questions. The responses were recorded on a Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (very common).
Results: A total of 69 subjects participated in this study, 32 (46.4%) women and 37 (53.6%) men. Subjects were divided in two groups, experimental and control. The average age of subjects was 25.45±4.89 years. The total sum of OHIP-14 scores in the experimental group was 7.26 ± 5.34 points, while in the control group it was 10.97±10.17 (P = 0.291). The highest score was in the category “Psychological discomfort” in both groups (experimental group 2.86±1.84 points vs. control group 3.35±2.19 bodova, P=0.061).
Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated no significant difference in oral health related quality of life between patients with bruxism and control subjects without that condition. |
