To assess the treatment outcomes of using inhalation sedation for comprehensive dental care in children by utilising a modified version of the indicator of sedation need tool.
Investigating the outcomes of dental treatment of patients referred to the sedation unit at the Leeds Dental Institute when the paediatric version of the indicator of sedation need (p-IOSN) was utilised.
Forty patients of mean age 9.99 (SD = 3.14) years were followed up to ascertain treatment outcomes when the p-IOSN was used. Of the total of 40 children included, 20 scored 6 on p-IOSN. Treatment completion rate was 72.5 %. Although major differences existed between age and treatment outcomes, they failed to achieve statistical significance. No significant association was found between gender and p-IOSN of any score with any treatment outcome.
p-IOSN may be a useful tool that can be used to predict those child patients who would benefit from sedation for their dental treatment. However, the p-IOSN is still in a developmental stage and further research is required prior to its use on clinical grounds.
通过使用镇静需求指标工具的改良版本，评估吸入镇静用于儿童综合牙科护理的治疗效果。
调查在利兹牙科研究所镇静科就诊的患者在使用儿科版镇静需求指标（p-IOSN）时的牙科治疗结果。
对平均年龄9.99（标准差=3.14）岁的40名患者进行随访，以确定使用p-IOSN时的治疗效果。在纳入的40名儿童中，有20名在p-IOSN上得分为6分。治疗完成率为72.5%。虽然年龄和治疗效果之间存在较大差异，但未达到统计学显著性。在性别与任何分数的p-IOSN以及任何治疗效果之间未发现显著关联。
p-IOSN可能是一种有用的工具，可用于预测哪些儿童患者在牙科治疗中会从镇静中受益。然而，p-IOSN仍处于发展阶段，在基于临床使用之前还需要进一步研究。
