Abstract

School nurses can play an important role in improving the prognosis of traumatized teeth of school children when they are informed about the immediate and proper dental first aid steps. The purpose of this study were to assess the awareness of school nurses concerning the management of traumatized teeth and to determine if a lecture on dental trauma management could improve school nurses'knowledge on this topic. School nurses in Gwangju and Jeonnam province completed a questionnaire before and after the lecture on the first-aid knowledge with particular focus on the following three categories. Questionnaires are composed of questions asking general information and about knowledge and proper attitude in case of the specific situation on dental trauma. According to previous studies, school nurses' knowledge tended to be higher compared with the teachers. Improvement of knowledge in school nurse was observed in emergency actions, in visiting time, replantation, carriage method, vaccine prescription related with luxation, and in possibility of fragment reattachment related with subluxation and fracture. In conclusion, it is recommended that periodical education are needed for improvement of school nurses'knowledge on proper management of dental trauma emergency.

교내에서 학생들의 치과적 외상은 흔하며 일반교사들보다 보건교사들이 외상의 일차적인 처치를 담당한다. 본 연구는 광주, 전남지역의 초, 중, 고등학교 보건교사들을 대상으로 어린이들의 치아외상시의 대처 방법에 대한 지식수준을 조사하고, 치과 응급처치에 대한 교육을 시행한 후 그 효과가 어느 정도인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구에 참여한 보건교사는 194명으로 치아외상교육 전후에 설문지를 배분하였다. 설문지는 일반적인 사항, 치아외상이 일어난 상황에서의 태도 및 지식에 관한 질문을 포함하고 있다. 치과 응급처치 교육을 시행한 후 적절한 응급처치, 치아의 완전 탈구 시에 치과 내원시간, 재식여부, 치아 운반방법, 파상풍백신 접종여부와 치아 아탈구 및 파절시의 파절편의 재접착 가능 여부 및 처리법에 관한 항목에서 보건교사들의 응급처치에 대한 지식수준이 향상되었다. 따라서 보건교사의 치과적 응급처치에 관한 지식수준향상을 위한 주기적인 교육의 시행이 요구된다.
