| Sažetak | Naslov: Znanje o oralnom zdravlju i oralne-higijenske navike među učenicima Splitsko-dalmatinske županije
Cilj: Cilj istraživačkog djelovanja jest utvrđivanje socijalne stvarnosti u kojoj se formiraju navike učenika u održavanju oralne higijene. Učenici viših razreda osnovne škole odgajaju se za samostalno i odgovorno ponašanje u očuvanju zdravlja osnovom navika koje stječu unutar primarne obitelji te povjerenja koje stječu u otvorenoj komunikaciji s liječnikom dentalne medicine. Dosadašnja istraživanja su pokazala učinkovitost zdravstvenog odgoja u kontroli plaka, a time i dentalnih bolesti. Loše oralno zdravlje ima velik utjecaj na kvalitetu života bilo da se radi o djeci, odraslim ili starijim osobama. Nužno je na vrijeme usaditi znanje o uzroku i prevenciji najčešćih oralnih bolesti jer su loše higijenske navike uzrok bolesti u odrasloj dobi. Odgovarajuće informacije, programi i motivacija dovode do promjene stavova o važnosti provođenja oralno higijenskih navika te važnosti očuvanja oralnog zdravlja.
Ispitanici i metode: Utvrđivanje navika oralne higijene učenika viših razreda osnovne škole te njihova znanja o oralnom zdravlju provedeni su primjenom kvalitativnih i kvantitativnih metoda istraživanja kroz dvije istraživačke faze: formiranjem fokus grupa s kojima se provodio problemski usmjeren (dubinski) intervju slijedom čega se utvrdio plan istraživanja, polje istraživanja, formiranje upitnika za potrebe provođenja anonimnog anketnog ispitivanja na uzorku od 1001 učenika viših razreda osnovnih škola Splitsko-dalmatinske županije. U radu su prikupljeni podaci obrađeni i deskriptivno interpretirani, u svrhu provjere postavljene, a potom i potvrđene prve hipoteze, a to je da se učenici viših razreda osnovne škole ne pridržavaju temeljnih načela oralne higijene; te potvrde postavljene druge hipoteze prema kojoj učenici nemaju sustavne informacije o pravilima i potrebi oralne higijene. Ove hipoteze su u suodnosu čime se zaključuje da je osnovni preduvjet primjene pravilnog ponašanja brige o oralnom zdravlju pravovremena informacija i edukacija, sustavno provođenje informacija o osnovnim počelima provođenja pravilnih ponašanja koja prethode usvajanju navika i pozitivnog stava brige o oralnom zdravlju.
Rezultati: Rezultati upućuju na potrebu promjene svih manjkavosti primarnog odgojnog djelovanja u području zdravstvenog odgoja mladih te pojačane komunikacije s liječnikom koja ne smije biti samo kliničke nego i informativne naravi.
Zaključak: Učenici viših razreda osnovnih škola ne pridržavaju se temeljnih pravila i načela oralne higijene, te nemaju sustavne informacije o pravilima i važnosti oralne higijene. |
