To investigate blood pressure fluctuations in dentists during their daily activities, including dental procedures, in comparison with a non-dentist population.
A pilot study on blood pressure and heart rate fluctuations was performed which involved 26 dentists working at a university clinic. A 24-hour blood pressure registration was obtained using the Oxford Monitoring System.
In the dentist group, both blood pressure and heart rate were found to be significantly higher during work than during leisure activities. In the control group, no significant difference in blood pressure was recorded between these periods. This study also showed the feasibility of ambulant 24-hour blood pressure registration on dentists during daily activity. Our results ethically justify a more intensive cardiovascular study involving a larger number of dentists working in private practice in order to establish whether our results are valid for the dental practitioner in general.
与非牙医人群相比，调查牙医在包括牙科手术在内的日常活动中的血压波动情况。
进行了一项关于血压和心率波动的初步研究，涉及在大学诊所工作的26名牙医。使用牛津监测系统进行24小时血压记录。
在牙医组中，发现工作期间的血压和心率均显著高于休闲活动期间。在对照组中，这些时间段之间的血压没有显著差异。这项研究还表明了在牙医日常活动期间进行24小时动态血压记录的可行性。从伦理学角度来看，我们的研究结果证明有必要开展一项更深入的心血管研究，纳入更多在私人诊所工作的牙医，以确定我们的结果是否普遍适用于牙科从业者。
