초록

본 연구는 2015년 8월 1일부터 10월 15일까지 부산광역시와 경상남도 일부 지역 치과병 의원에 근무하고 있는 치과위생사 228명을 대상으로 설문 조사하였다. 치과위생사의 감염관리 인지도와 실천도에 영향을 미치는 감염관리 구조 체계 요인을 조사하여 체계적인 감염관리 지침을 마련하는 데 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 원내 감염관리에 대한 환자진료 준비시간 지원은 장비 및 시설 지원(r=0.434, p<0.01), 진료기술 및 정보 지원(r=0.231, p<0.01), 감염관리 교육 지원(r=0.266, p<0.01), 감염관리 인지도(r=0.354, p<0.01), 감염관리 실천도(r=0.442, p<0.01)와 정적 상관을 보였고, 장비 및 시설 지원은 진료기술 및 정보 지원(r=0.418, p<0.01), 감염관리 교육 지원(r=0.422, p<0.01), 감염관리 인지도(r=0.404, p<0.01), 감염관리 실천도(r=0.454, p<0.01)와 정적 상관을 나타냈다. 원내 감염관리에 대한 감염관리 교육 지원은 감염관리 인지도(r=0.348, p<0.01), 감염관리 실천도(r=0.405, p<0.01)와 정적 상관을 보였고, 감염관리 인지도는 감염관리 실천도(r=0.879, p<0.01)와 정적 상관을 가지고 있었다. 감염관리 인지도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 환자진료 준비시간 지원, 장비 및 시설 지원, 진료 기술 및 정보 지원, 감염관리 교육 지원으로 나타났다. 감염관리 실천도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 환자진료 준비시간 지원, 장비 및 시설 지원, 감염관리 교육 지원, 진료 기술 및 정보 지원으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과 치과위생사의 치과감염관리 인지도와 실천도를 높이기 위해서는 바람직한 감염관리 구조체계를 구축하여 활성화해야 한다. 치과의료기관 감염관리 구조체계의 엄격한 평가제도가 마련되어 바람직한 치과의료 환경을 조성하고, 환자의 건강과 안전을 보호할 필요가 있다고 생각된다.

A total of 228 dental hygienists working in dental hospitals and clinics in the Busan and Gyeongnam areas were surveyed between August 1, 2015, and October 15, 2015. The factors influencing infection control awareness and implementation levels among the dental hygienists were investigated to prepare basic data with the goal of establishing guidelines for systemic infection control. Treatment preparation support for infection control positively correlated with equipment and facility support (r=0.4343, p<0.01), treatment skill and information support (r=0.231, p<0.01), infection control education support (r=0.266, p<0.01), infection control awareness (r=0.354, p<0.01), and infection control implementation levels (r=0.442, p<0.01). Equipment and facility support positively correlated with treatment skill and information support (r=0.418, p<0.01), infection control education support (r=0.422, p<0.01), infection control awareness (r=0.404, p<0.01), and infection control implementation levels (r=0.454, p<0.01). Infection control education support positively correlated with infection control awareness (r=0.348, p<0.01) and infection control implementation levels (r=0.405, p<0.01). Infection control awareness positively correlated with the infection control implementation level (r=0.879, p<0.01). The factors influencing the awareness of infection control include treatment preparation support, equipment and facility support, treatment skill and information support, and infection control education support. The influencing the infection control implementation level include treatment preparation support, equipment and facility support, infection control education support, and treatment skill and information support. To enhance the awareness of infection control and implementation levels amongdental hygienists, an infection control system must be established and implemented A rigorous system for evaluating dental clinics must also be established to ensure an ideal dental treatment environment and to protect patients' health and safety.
