This study examines the antibiotic prescription in dentists participated in 9(th) Congress of Iranian Association of Endodontists in Esfahan/2006.
A questionnaire for this cross sectional study was designed for evaluating the patterns of antibiotic prescription. It included some demographic information, clinical signs, and conditions in need for antibiotic and prophylactic prescription and their choices. Data was analyzed using Pearson's Chi-square test.
High percentage of responders prescribe antibiotic for fever (78.2%) and diffuse swelling (85.1%). However, some situations such as acute pulpitis, chronic periapical lesions and marginal gingivitis were irrationally prescribed.
This study showed a fairly good pattern of antibiotic prescription but it was far from ideal.
本研究调查了参加2006年在伊斯法罕举行的第九届伊朗牙髓病学家协会大会的牙医的抗生素处方情况。
为这项横断面研究设计了一份问卷,用于评估抗生素处方模式。问卷包括一些人口统计学信息、临床症状、需要抗生素和预防性处方的情况及其选择。数据采用Pearson卡方检验进行分析。
高比例的受访者会为发热(78.2%)和弥漫性肿胀(85.1%)开具抗生素。然而,一些情况如急性牙髓炎、慢性根尖周病变和边缘性牙龈炎被不合理地开具了抗生素。
本研究显示抗生素处方模式相当不错,但远非理想。
