OBJECTIVE
Estimate the proportion of dental practitioners who use online sources of information for practice guidance.
METHODS
From a survey of 657 dental practitioners in The Dental Practice-Based Research Network, four indicators of online use for practice guidance were calculated: read journals online, obtained continuing education (CDE) through online sources, rated an online source as most influential, and reported frequently using an online source for guidance. Demographics, journals read, and use of various sources of information for practice guidance in terms of frequency and influence were ascertained for each.
RESULTS
Overall, 21 percent (n = 138) were classified into one of the four indicators of online use: 14 percent (n = 89) rated an online source as most influential and 13 percent (n = 87) reported frequently using an online source for guidance; few practitioners (5 percent, n = 34) read journals online, fewer (3 percent, n = 17) obtained CDE through online sources. Use of online information sources varied considerably by region and practice characteristics. In general, the four indicators represented practitioners with as many differences as similarities to each other and to offline users.
CONCLUSION
A relatively small proportion of dental practitioners use information from online sources for practice guidance. Variation exists regarding practitioners' use of online source resources and how they rate the value of offline information sources for practice guidance.
目的
评估将在线信息源用于实践指导的牙医的比例。
方法
从 The Dental Practice-Based Research Network 的 657 名牙医调查中，计算了用于实践指导的在线使用的四个指标：在线阅读期刊、通过在线来源获得继续教育 (CDE)、将在线来源评为最具影响力、以及报告经常使用在线来源进行指导。确定了每个指标的人口统计学特征、阅读期刊以及各种实践指导信息源的使用频率和影响力。
结果
总体而言，21%（n=138）被归入四个在线使用指标之一：14%（n=89）将在线来源评为最具影响力，13%（n=87）报告经常使用在线来源进行指导；很少有牙医（5%，n=34）在线阅读期刊，更少（3%，n=17）通过在线来源获得 CDE。在线信息源的使用因地区和实践特征而异。一般来说，这四个指标代表了与彼此以及离线用户有许多不同之处的牙医。
结论
相对较少的牙医将在线信息源用于实践指导。关于从业者对在线来源资源的使用以及他们对离线信息源在实践指导中的价值的评价存在差异。
