El efecto de la legislación provincial sobre la salud bucal en las instalaciones de cuidados de larga duración
Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985)
|September 3, 2025
Resumen
Alberta también.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Gerontología
- Política de salud pública
- Gestión de la salud bucal
Sus antecedentes:
- Alberta implementó una política provincial de higiene bucal (OHP) en 2018 y un programa de capacitación en cuidado bucal (MCTP) en 2015 para las instalaciones de cuidado a largo plazo (LTCF).
- Estas iniciativas exigen asistencia de higiene bucal dos veces al día y capacitación del personal para los residentes de LTCF.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Evaluar el alcance provincial de la implementación de OHP y MCTP en las LTCF de Alberta.
- Evaluar las tasas de cumplimiento, los impactos percibidos en la salud bucal y la calidad de vida de los residentes, e identificar áreas de mejora.
Principales métodos:
- Se administró una encuesta en línea a los gerentes de LTCF en toda Alberta.
- Se recogieron datos de 77 LTCF, que representan a 11.653 residentes.
Principales resultados:
- El 66,2% de los LTCF aplicaron el OHP y el 50,6% aplicaron el MCTP.
- La implementación se correlacionó con un aumento del 14,3% en la provisión de higiene bucal dos veces al día, una mejor limpieza bucal (46%), una mejor calidad de vida de los residentes (33,9%) y un mayor conocimiento de la salud bucal del personal (55,2%).
- Las barreras significativas incluyeron la dependencia de la familia para los productos (79,2%) y la baja asistencia a las citas dentales externas (67,6%).
Conclusiones:
- La implementación de la política tiene un impacto positivo en los residentes y el personal de los LTCF de Alberta.
- Las brechas persisten en la disponibilidad de recursos y el apoyo profesional, lo que pone de relieve la necesidad de mejorar el acceso a los profesionales de la salud bucal y a los recursos dentales internos.
