Abstract

OBJECTIVES

The EGOHID I (European Global Oral Health Indicators Development) project started in 2002 under the European Health Monitoring Programme. The aim was to develop a set of indicators for monitoring and describing oral health morbidity and different facets of oral health care systems in Europe. The challenge was to define valid indicators that would cover common concerns and would have the same meaning throughout the different European health care systems.

METHODS

EGOHID included i) a review of existing recommendations on oral health indicators, ii) a European study of the availability of national/or regional statistics to construct recommended indicators; iii) a consensus process using aggregation of preferences methods to select a list of essential indicators; iv) the production of a catalogue for information users, including descriptions for all indicators.

RESULTS

A set of 40 indicators in oral public health were identified which, even though restricted to a minimal essential list, still addressed four key dimensions. The 40 indicators were described in four categories. Part A. indicators for monitoring the oral health of children and adolescents; Part B. indicators for monitoring the oral health of general population; Part C. indicators for monitoring oral health systems and Part D. indicators for monitoring oral health quality of life. This work has enabled a feasibility study (EGOHID II, which is now in progress), which is an essential part of an overall project, since it will allow Member States to evaluate their capability to use these indicators.

CONCLUSIONS

The EGOHID 1 project was successful in identifying a set of 40 indicators which drew on and consolidated previous work. Consensus was achieved from a wide group of stakeholders on precise indicators in areas where uncertainty about appropriate indicators was high; some areas were also targeted for future development.

摘要

目标

“欧洲全球口腔健康指标制定”项目一期（EGOHID I）于2002年在欧洲健康监测计划下启动。其目的是制定一套指标，用于监测和描述欧洲口腔健康发病率及口腔卫生保健系统的不同方面。面临的挑战是定义有效的指标，这些指标要涵盖共同关注的问题，并且在不同的欧洲医疗保健系统中具有相同的含义。

方法

EGOHID项目包括：i）对现有口腔健康指标建议进行审查；ii）在欧洲开展一项关于获取国家/地区统计数据以构建建议指标的研究；iii）采用偏好汇总方法进行共识达成过程，以选择一份基本指标清单；iv）为信息使用者编制一份目录，包括所有指标的描述。

结果

确定了一套40项口腔公共卫生指标，尽管限于最低限度的基本清单，但仍涉及四个关键维度。这40项指标分为四类。A部分：监测儿童和青少年口腔健康的指标；B部分：监测普通人群口腔健康的指标；C部分：监测口腔卫生系统的指标；D部分：监测口腔健康生活质量的指标。这项工作促成了一项可行性研究（EGOHID II，目前正在进行），这是整个项目的重要组成部分，因为它将使成员国能够评估其使用这些指标的能力。
