초록

본 연구는 예비 치과위생사인 일부 치위생과 학생들을 대상으로 치과 감염관리에 대한 인식도와 실천도를 파악하여 치과 감염관리 중요성 및 실천을 위한 기초 자료로 활용하기 위해 교내 및 교외 현장임상실습을 경험한 치위생과 학생 220명을 대상으로 시행하였다. 연구 대상자의 감염관리 교육을 받은 학생은 98.6%였고, 감염관리 교육장소는 학교가 91.8%로 가장 높았다. 감염관리 교육이 필요하다고 답한 학생은 95%였다. 연구 대상자의 감염관리에 대한 인식도를 알아본 결과 전체 감염관리 인식도 평균은 4.58점, 감염관리 실천도 평균은 4.50점으로 인식도 보다 낮게 나타났다. 감염관리 인식도 및 실천도 간의 차이를 확인한 결과 손 씻기, 개인보호장구 착용, 기구소독 및 멸균, 의료폐기물의 모든 영역에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 일반적 특성, 실습 및 감염관리 관련 특성, 감염예방 인식도가 감염예방 실천도에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과 학년, 실습 시 감염경험, 실습실 내 감염관리 지침서 비치 여부, 손 씻기영역 인식도, 개인보호장구 착용 등이 유의한 예측 변수로 확인되었다.

This study involved 220 dental hygiene students who had experience in field clinical practice. It was carried out to grasp the awareness and practice of dental infection control and to use it as basic data for dental infection control practice. As a result of examining the awareness of dental infection control, the average score was 4.58 points, and the average infection control practice was 4.50 points. As a result of identifying differences between infection control awareness and practice, there were statistically significant differences in all domains. As a result of investigating the effect on infection prevention practices, the grade level, the experience of infection during practice, whether infection control guidelines are provided in the laboratory, awareness of handwashing areas, and wearing personal protective equipment were found to be significant predictors.
