چکیده: (110 مشاهده)
Introduction: In light of the high incidence of cardiovascular diseases within the population and recognizing them as one of the most frequently encountered conditions in dental practice, the significance of effectively managing these medically compromised patients in dental settings has become increasingly crucial. Thus, this study aimed to assess the knowledge of senior dental students concerning patients afflicted with prevalent cardiovascular disorders.
Materials and Methods: In this analytical cross-sectional study with a total population sampling method, there were 64 senior dental students selected from Gilan University of Medical Sciences during 2021-2022. They completed a questionnaire with demographic information and 14 four-choice questions assessing knowledge towards Hypertension, Ischemic Heart Diseases, and Infective Endocarditis. Knowledge levels were categorized as poor, average, and good based on the statistical thirds. The significance level was set at P<0.05.
Results: The participants achieved an average score of 48.21 ± 16.88 (out of 100). There were statistically significant differences (P<0.001) in knowledge scores across disease categories, with the lowest average score for Ischemic Heart Diseases and the highest for Infective Endocarditis. Furthermore, the statistical analysis found no significant difference in knowledge scores based on gender and no statistically significant correlation between Grade Point Average (GPA) and knowledge scores (P>0.05).
Conclusion: The dental education curriculum could be modified to emphasize teaching common systemic diseases in clinical care, and improving the quantity and quality of education to create a positive outlook on the significance of acquiring knowledge in the field of cardiovascular disorders.
