Knowledge and behavior of dentistry patients about the use and misuse of antibiotics: A cross-sectional study
Öz
Amaç: Bu anket çalışmasının amacı dental enfeksiyonlarda en sık kullanılan ilaçlar olan antibiyotikler hakkında diş hekimliği hastalarının bilgi ve davranışlarının analiz edilmesiyle hatalı ilaç kullanımına yol açan etkenleri ortaya çıkarmaktır.
Yöntem: Bu kesitsel anket çalışması Mart 2019-Haziran 2019 tarihleri arasında Trakya Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’ne gelen hastalar arasında gerçekleştirildi. Veriler bir anket kullanılarak toplandı ve istatistiksel analiz için IBM SPSS Statistics 22 (IBM SPSS, Türkiye) kullanılarak analiz edildi. Nitel verilerin ve frekansın karşılaştırılmasında Ki-kare testi, Fisher's Exact testi, Fisher Freeman Halton testi ve Süreklilik (Yates) Düzeltmesi kullanıldı. Anlamlılık p<0.05 düzeyinde değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Bu çalışmaya toplam 350 gönüllü katıldı. Doktora danışmadan antibiyotik ile kendi kendine tedavi oranı % 31.7 (n=111) ve hasta olmadan evde bulundurmak üzere doktordan antibiyotik isteme oranı % 9.7 (n= 34) olarak bulundu. Katılımcıların % 24,9'u (n=87) şikayetleri bitince antibiyotik kullanmayı bıraktığını ve % 50,6'sı (n=177) diş enfeksiyonlarında verilen antibiyotiklerin diğer enfeksiyonlarda da etkili olduğunu düşündüklerini belirtti. Eğitim seviyesi gruplarının tümünde yüksek oranda antibiyotik kötüye kullanım davranışı bulundu.
Sonuçlar: Bu çalışma sonuçları diş kaynaklı rahatsızlıklardaki antibiyotik kullanımı ile ilgili olarak, hastalar arasında bilgilendirme ve eğitimsel müdahalelere acil bir ihtiyaç olduğunu belirlemiştir.

Knowledge and behavior of dentistry patients about the use and misuse of antibiotics: A cross-sectional study
Öz
Background: Antibiotics are being used frequently in dental infection and this study focused on the knowledge and behavior on antibiotic use of dentistry patients to reveal major mistakes leading to drug misuse.
Methods: This cross-sectional survey was conducted among Trakya University Faculty of Dentistry patients between March and June 2019. The data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 22 (IBM SPSS, Turkey) for statistical analysis. Chi-square test, Fisher's Exact test, Fisher Freeman Halton test, and Continuity (Yates) Correction were used for comparison of qualitative data and frequency. Significance was evaluated at the p<0.05 level.
Results: A total of 350 patients participated in this study. The rate of self-treatment with antibiotics was 31.7% (n=111) and the rate of asking for prescribing antibiotics without being sick is 9.7% (n= 34). 24.9% (n=87) of the participants use antibiotics until their complaints stop. 50.6% (n=177) of the participants think that antibiotics given in dental infections are also effective in other infections. Among the educational backgrounds, high rates of antibiotic misuse behavior were found in all groups.
Conclusion: This study has identified an urgent need for widespread investigations and educational interventions for patients regarding antibiotic usage, especially in dental situations.
