Desenvolvimento e avaliação de um prontuário virtual da disciplina de Cirurgia da Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade de São Paulo / Development and evaluation of an electronic health record of the Oral Surgery service of the School of Dentistry of the University of São Paulo

Hayashi, Juliana Yuki 04 September 2009 (has links)
A importância dos serviços de assistência odontológica prestada pela Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade de São Paulo reflete nos dados obtidos do Anuário Estatístico da Universidade de São Paulo. Somente na disciplina de Cirurgia, foram realizados 1075 atendimentos cirúrgicos, no ano de 2000 saltando para 5686 em 2007. A cada paciente gera-se um prontuário que contém informações de cunho pessoal, da história médica, odontológicas, e de imagens que lhe atribui alto valor legal e de pesquisa. Com a alta procura pelos serviços oferecidos pela faculdade, o número de documentos gerados por paciente cresce proporcionalmente e constata-se que o arquivamento dos prontuários de toda a faculdade é frágil e sujeito à ocorrência de eventos que poderiam danificar o material. A morosidade na busca por dados dos pacientes, a perda de informações, e a dificuldade em realizar estudos epidemiológicos levaram à motivação para o desenvolvimento e avaliação de um prontuário virtual e seu respectivo Banco de Dados da disciplina de Cirurgia da Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade de São Paulo. Um modelo de ficha para transcrição eletrônica, com os mesmos itens da ficha clínico-cirúrgica, foi elaborado e utilizado para a transcrição das informações dos pacientes atendidos no ambulatório de Cirurgia, no curso noturno, no ano de 2008. Um protótipo de prontuário virtual foi desenvolvido e os dados coletados de 417 pacientes foram inseridos e armazenados localmente num Banco de Dados desenvolvido para WEB, visando uma nova forma de acesso à informação. A partir dos testes de uso retrospectivo e prospectivo, concluímos que o protótipo do prontuário virtual representa uma importante ferramenta baseada em tecnologias de informação, de uso epidemiológico, de pesquisa e de avaliação dos requisitos necessários para o desenvolvimento de um prontuário virtual com mais robustez e flexibilidade. / The importance of the dental aid services offered by the School of Dentistry of the University of São Paulo reflects on the data from the Statistical Yearbook of the University of São Paulo. In the discipline of Oral Surgery by itself, 1075 surgical appointments were done in 2000, which has increased greatly to 5686 in 2007. To every new patient admitted by the service, a record file is created and contains personal information, health and dental history, and images, thus setting a high legal and research value on the patient record file for the institution. With the high demand for these dental services, the number of documents by patient proportionally augments and it can be seen in the entire institution fragility of the files archiving and risk of events occurrence that could damage the material. The slowness of retrieving patient data, lack of information, and difficulties motivate the development and evaluation of an electronic health record and its respective database in the discipline of Oral Surgery of the School of Dentistry of the University of São Paulo. A sheet form for electronic transcription, with the same content of the surgical-clinical questionnaire form, was elaborated to transcript the health information of the patients admitted at the Oral Surgery Service, in the nocturnal graduation course during 2008. A prototype of an electronic health record was created and the collected data were processed and stored in a web-based local database, aiming to an innovative access mode to information. By the tests of retrospective and prospective use of the electronic health record, we concluded the prototype of the electronic health record represents an important tool based in technologies of information, useful to epidemiology, research and evaluation of required features to development of an electronic health record more robust and flexible.

A Survey of the Implementation and Usage of Electronic Dental Records and Digital Radiographs in Private Dental Practices in Mississippi

Brent, Barbara K 01 May 2018 (has links) (PDF)
Implementation of electronic health records by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health has led to the implementation of electronic dental records (EDRs) and digital radiography in dental offices. The purpose of this study was to determine the state of the implementation and usage of EDRs and digital radiographs by the private general and pediatric dental practices in Mississippi as well as reasons why the dental practices are not moving forward with the advanced technology. A survey was emailed to 712 dental practices: 116 responded (16% response rate), and 104 consented to participate (89.66%). Results indicated dental practices in Mississippi using EDRs was 46.07%, EDRs with paper records was 42.70%, and only paper records was 11.24%. Results indicated dental practices using digital radiography was 76.40%, conventional radiography was 13.48%, and both was 10.11%. Common reasons for not advancing were cost, insufficient training, computer/software issues, and “too old.”

Survival Analysis of Endodontically Treated Teeth in Patients with Diabetes and Hypertension within National Dental PBRN Practices

Crosby, William Justin 06 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Introduction: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is rapidly increasing among the aging United States population. This poses a challenge to dental providers since DM and multiple oral conditions have been identified as comorbidities. Hypertension (HTN) is associated with more poorly controlled DM and has been identified as contributing to RCT tooth loss in prior studies. Links have also been established between DM and the survival rate of root canal treated teeth, however, previous research has focused on institutional settings despite the majority of RCT being performed in private dental practices. This study will use data from private dental practices to evaluate the survival rate of RCT teeth in patients with DM and HTN. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study evaluated the survival rate of endodontic treated teeth among patients with DM and HTN using National Dental PBRN Practice data. Electronic dental records from 42 private dental practices in the United States over a period of 15 years with a minimum 2-year follow-up comprising 11,532 root canal treated teeth were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to demonstrate the effects of HTN and DM on RCT tooth survival and Cox proportional hazards survival analysis was used to evaluate the DM and HTN effects after accounting for age, gender, insurance, year of treatment, tooth type, and crown and filling placement as covariates. Results: Patients with HTN only had significantly lower risk of failure than patients with both HTN and DM (p=0.003). Patients with neither HTN nor DM had significantly lower risk of failure than patients with both HTN and DM (p=0.020). Patients with DM only did not have significantly different risk of failure than patients with both HTN and DM (p=0.223). Patients with DM only did not have significantly different risk of failure than patients with HTN only (p=0.361). Patients with neither HTN nor DM did not have significantly different risk of failure than patients with HTN only (p=0.121) or patients with DM only (p=0.800). Conclusions: Patients with both DM and HTN have an increased chance of root canal treated tooth failure while patients with only DM or only HTN do not. Evaluation of severity of DM may be more important in determining RCT failure and studies utilizing laboratory values should be considered for future research.

3D CBCT analysis of the frontal sinus and its relationship to forensic identification

Krus, Bianaca S. January 2014 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The positive identification of human remains that are decomposed, burnt, or otherwise disfigured can prove especially challenging in forensic anthropology, resulting in the need for specialized methods of analysis. Due to the unique morphological characteristics of the frontal sinus, a positive identification can be made in cases of unknown human remains, even when remains are highly cremated or decomposed. This study retrospectively reviews 3D CBCT images of a total of 43 Caucasian patients between the ages of 20-38 from the Indiana University School of Dentistry to quantify frontal sinus differences between adult males and females and investigate the usefulness of frontal sinus morphology for forensic identification. Digit codes with six sections and eleven-digit numbers were created to classify each individual sinus. It was shown that 3D CBCT images of the frontal sinus could be used to make a positive forensic identification. Metric measurements displayed a high degree of variability between sinuses and no two digit codes were identical. However, it was also shown that there were almost no quantifiable and significant sexually dimorphic differences between male and female frontal sinuses. This study confirms that sex determination should not be a primary goal of frontal sinus analysis and highlights the importance of creating a standard method of frontal sinus evaluation based on metric measurements.
