摘要:  

目的:了解老年住院患者口腔健康知识、态度及行为现状,并分析其影响因素,为做好老年住院患者口腔保健提供依据,同时为老年住院患者建立合适的口腔健康教育模式奠定基础。方法:采用便利抽样法取天津市5家三级医院,再用系统抽样法抽取164例老年住院患者作为研究对象,采用横断面调查,运用自行设计的患者一般情况调查表、患者口腔健康知识、态度及行为调查表对患者进行调查,采用单因素分析和多元线性回归分析对患者口腔健康知识、态度及行为的影响因素进行分析。 结果:老年住院患者口腔健康知识、态度得分 (5.74±0.40)分,健康行为得分 (5.71±0.39)分,患者口腔健康知识、态度、行为总分(11.30±1.25)分;多元线性回归分析结果显示,住院老年患者口腔健康知识、态度及行为受到患者自身特点(年龄、文化程度、经济收入)和外界环境(口腔健康宣教、宣传途径等)的影响,可以解释患者口腔健康知识、态度及行为45.7%的变异。结论:老年住院患者口腔健康信念差、口腔健康知识缺乏、口腔健康行为不良,护理人员应该加大口腔健康知识的宣传力度,为老年患者提供专业的口腔知识宣教,特别关注年龄大、收入低,文化程度低的老年患者。
