To analyze the current status of knowledge, awareness, and attitude among the dentists toward radiation hazards and radiation protection.
The sample size collected for the study is 300 and those who fall under the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. A structured close-ended questionnaire will be designed to collect the data comprising of 16 questions related to the study. Results were analyzed using SPSS 20.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL).
The knowledge, attitude, and awareness about radiation protection were highest in dental interns followed by dental students, dental post graduate, and Private Clinic Dental Practitioners. Among the total participants, majority felt that lectures and workshops should be conducted to acquire knowledge on radiation hazards and protection.
There is need "to fill" the knowledge deficit for students from both medical and dental fraternity thereby creating awareness about radiation hazards and protection. There is a need to educate current and future doctors regarding unnecessary exposure of individual to radiation.
分析牙医对辐射危害和辐射防护的知识、意识及态度现状。
本研究收集的样本量为300,符合纳入标准者将被纳入研究。将设计一份结构化的封闭式问卷来收集数据,该问卷包含16个与本研究相关的问题。使用SPSS 20.0(SPSS公司,伊利诺伊州芝加哥)对结果进行分析。
牙科实习生对辐射防护的知识、态度和意识最高,其次是牙科学生、牙科研究生和私人诊所牙医。在所有参与者中,大多数人认为应举办讲座和研讨会以获取有关辐射危害和防护的知识。
有必要填补医学和牙科领域学生的知识空白,从而提高对辐射危害和防护的认识。有必要对当前及未来的医生进行教育,使其了解个体不必要的辐射暴露情况。
