PURPOSE : The 3rd molar extraction of mandible is common in out-patient office of oral and maxillofacial surgery. And it is dynamic minor operation with changes of vital signs. most of patients are already sensitive about their dental treatment. The changes of emotion are reached to the highest level when patients is laid down to be treated on unit chair. It can be induced to undesirable accidents as to this fear. The undesirable complications are nausea, vomiting, hyperventilation, dyspnea, syncope, shock and so on. The severe changes of vital signs may influence their behavior and make serious medical malpractice or suit such as fracture of dental instruments and injury of proximal area. METHOD AND PATIENTS : A total of 99 selected normal patients were reviewed. Among this, 70 patients(43 men, 27 women with statistical significance) were included in this study. Each steps(pre-anesthesis, 5 minutes after anesthesis, just after mucogingival incision, just after tooth section, just after suture and gauze biting) were investigated for a change of a vital signs. It is analyzed to 2 categories,"Means" and "Tendency". The "Means" is the amount of vital signs changed in comparison with pre-step during operation. That means is the amount of vital changes by each step operation. Next, " Tendency" is changes of vital signs in comparison with step1 during operation. RESULT : This is the changing tendency of vital signs with time. That is active effect of fear and pain. Thus this "Means" and "Tendency" will present a sudden changes of vital signs and it can lead to more safe treatment. CONCLUSION : Thus, the purpose of this study is, through careful operation in each step, to less on patients' complication and increase trust between patient and OMFS. This study is a first article shown with the amount of "Means" and "Tendency" in vital signs, when a third molar of mandible is extracted. This study will be base study of patients with general diseases, because it selected only patients without general diseases.

본 연구는 간호학생의 구강건강에 관해 알아보고자 시행되었고, 207명을 대상으로 자가 보고식 설문을 진행하였다. 연구결과 지난 1년간 치과를 방문한 학생은 64.3% 였고, 치과 방문 이유는 정기검진이 25.9%, 충치치료가 23.5%이었다. 치과를 방문하지 않는 이유는 '덜 중요해서'가 12.6%로 가장 많았고, '치과 가기가 두려워서'가 10.6%로 나타났다. 하루동안 평균 잇솔질 횟수는 3.1회 이었으며 잇솔질 시간은 2~3분이 56.0%를 차지했다. 그러나 치과 방문 의도에 관한 질문에는 '치료 받을 때만'이 51.7%고 가장 많았고, '통증이 있을 때만'도 10.1%나 되었다. 구강교육을 받을 용의에 대해서는 54.6%가 '그렇다'고 응답하였고, 구강교육 희망내용으로는 '미백'이 34.5%로 가장 많았고, '구취예방'이 19.2%이었다. 구강건강정보 획득 경로로는 '인터넷'이 42.0%로 가장 많았고, '가족이나 친구'가 25.6%로 나타났다. 구강건강신념 중 감수성은 2.47점, 심각성은 2.00점, 유익성은 4.03점으로 나타났다. 치과치료가 필요했지만 치료를 받지 않은 학생에 비해 치료받은 학생에서 구강건강신념이 높게 나타났고(p<.001), 충치가 없는 학생에 비해 충치가 있는 학생에서 구강건강신념이 높게 나타났다(p<.001). 충치 개수와 감수성(r=.330, p=.002), 심각성(r=.25, p=.019)은 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 토대로 간호대학생의 구강건강을 위한 효과적인 프로그램 개발에 활용할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

Objectives: Medically compromised patients often fear required dental surgical procedures that can increase the risk of medical emergency when combined with reduced tolerance for stress. A stress reduction protocol (SRP) helps doctors minimize treatment-related stress and improves patient management with minimum complications. Diabetes and co-morbid hypertension carry 4-fold risk of aggravation of cardiovascular emergencies and 7.2-fold risk of mortality. Diabetic neuropathy can result in difficult diagnosis of myocardial infarction and reduces chances of surviving a myocardial infarction compared with a non-diabetic person. The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of a protocol for management of patients having both diabetes and hypertension who required minor oral surgery to minimize the rate of cardiovascular emergencies. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted in 140 patients having both diabetes and hypertension who required minor oral surgical procedures. A systematic approachable protocol was designed for management of such patients. Results: Among 140 patients, 6 patients (4.3%) had cardiovascular complications, while 3 patients (1 with syncope and 2 with hypertension) did not require any intervention other than observation. Two patients were managed with aspirin and nitroglycerin, and 1 patient had possible myocardial infarction (overall incidence 0.7%) with chest pain, S-T segment elevation on electrocardiogram, and troponin level of 0.60 ng/mL. Conclusion: The proposed protocol helps to improve management of patients having both diabetes and hypertension. We recommend that patients with uncontrolled diabetes and uncontrolled hypertension and/or patients having history of cardiovascular complication should be treated in a medical facility with a readily available cardiology unit. This facilitates prompt response to emergency and instant implementation of treatment, helping to reduce morbidity and mortality.
