BACKGROUND
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lives, daily routines, health, and oral and dental health status of primary school children and their parents. In addition, the data of sociodemographic factors and various parameters were cross compared and analysed.
METHODS
This cross-sectional questionnaire study was conducted in 12 primary schools. The questionnaire included 55 questions about the socio-demographic characteristics of the children and their parents, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their lives, daily routines, health, and oral and dental health, as well as their knowledge about these topics. Descriptive statistical methods were used to evaluate the data. Chi-square test was mainly used to analyze the relationships between categorical variables.
RESULTS
The study included the data of 2.466 children and their parents. The prevalence of stress was high in parents (63.7%) and their children (52.1%). The proportion of those whose sleep patterns changed was higher among parents and children who were stressed by the pandemic (p < 0.01). During the pandemic, 59.9% of children increased their screen time. Among parents and children who experienced stress, the proportion of those whose dietary habits changed was higher than those who did not (p < 0.01). For both parents (68.9%) and children (68.5%), the proportion of those who experienced changes in daily routines was high, and who experienced stress due to the pandemic changed their daily routines more (p < 0.01). The rate of unchanged oral hygiene habits was higher for both parents (74.0%) and their children (77.1%). Monthly income, education level of parents and class grade of the child were found significant on these alterations.
CONCLUSION
The pandemic had an impact on the stress levels, sleep patterns, dietary habits, daily routines, and screen time of primary school-aged children and their parents. In future studies, it would be beneficial to address the consequences of the negative effects of the pandemic and the effectiveness of the strategies developed.
背景
本研究旨在评估新冠疫情对小学生及其父母的生活、日常活动、健康以及口腔和牙齿健康状况的影响。此外,还对社会人口学因素和各种参数的数据进行了交叉比较和分析。
方法
本横断面问卷调查研究在12所小学进行。问卷包括55个问题,涉及儿童及其父母的社会人口学特征、新冠疫情对他们生活、日常活动、健康以及口腔和牙齿健康的影响,以及他们对这些主题的了解情况。采用描述性统计方法评估数据。卡方检验主要用于分析分类变量之间的关系。
结果
该研究纳入了2466名儿童及其父母的数据。父母(63.7%)和孩子(52.1%)的压力患病率较高。在因疫情感到压力的父母和孩子中,睡眠模式改变的比例更高(p < 0.01)。疫情期间,59.9%的儿童增加了屏幕使用时间。在经历压力的父母和孩子中,饮食习惯改变的比例高于未经历压力的人(p < 0.01)。父母(68.9%)和孩子(68.5%)中,日常活动发生变化的比例都很高,且因疫情感到压力的人改变日常活动的情况更多(p < 0.01)。父母(74.0%)和孩子(77.1%)保持口腔卫生习惯不变的比例更高。发现月收入、父母教育水平和孩子的年级对这些变化有显著影响。
结论
疫情对小学适龄儿童及其父母的压力水平、睡眠模式、饮食习惯、日常活动和屏幕使用时间产生了影响。在未来的研究中,探讨疫情负面影响的后果以及所制定策略的有效性将是有益的。
