Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tobacco cessation activities of the dental staffs in Wonju city. All 137 subjects were surveyed by structured questionnaire with convenience sampling. The distribution and correlation of attitude, behavior, and intervention were evaluated by both frequency test and ANOVA test. 75.2% of total subjects responded that the dental staff should give a model through prohibition of smoking and 66.5% responded that tobacco cessation activities should be responsibility of the dental staff. Tobacco cessation counsel was performed by little but with positive attitude. Advice method of tobacco cessation was used to counsel on tobacco cessation (68.6%). The dentists (48.2%) and dental hygienists (23.4%) were responded adequate for the tobacco cessation counselor, however, it was shown that the dentist had lower level of attitude about tobacco cessation than dental hygienist (p<0.01). The dental staff needs to participate in the tobacco cessation counseling program more regularly and actively. In order for the dental staffs gets the counsel effectively and intervene with tobacco cessation, it is essential that the education of tobacco cessation is integrated in dental school. Furthermore, it is necessary for the dental staffs to take continuing education for more effective understanding of tobacco cessation.

치과종사자의 금연에 대한 태도, 금연지도활동의 실태, 금연지도활동의 장애요인에 대한 자료를 조사 분석하여 금연지도활동을 확대하는데 필요한 자료를 얻기 위하여 강원도 원주시 구강보건지료기관에 근무하는 치과의사, 치과위생사, 간호조무사, 치과코디네이터를 대상으로 하여 설문조사법을 적용하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 치과종사자의 금연에 대한 태도점수의 평균 6점 만점에서 5.18점(${\pm}1.21$)으로 비교적 금연에 대해 긍정적인 태도를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 치과종사자의 금연지도활동 점수의 평균은 12점 만점에서 6.67점(${\pm}1.85$)으로 비교적 낮게 나타났다. 3. 금연지도활동의 장애요인으로는 금연문제를 거론하기가 힘들다는 응답이 42.3%로 가장 큰 장애요인으로 나타났다. 4. 치과종사자의 금연지도활동 점수와 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계를 보인 변수는 금연에 대한 태도, 연령, 금여권유 시, 금연 가능성에 대한 인식이었다. 이상의 결과로부터 구강건강관리인력의 금연지도활동에 대한 자기효능감을 높이기 위해 정규교과과정이나 보수교육 프로그램의 개발을 통행 지속적으로 금연지도활동에 대한 이론 및 기술교육을 통해 제공해야 하며, 금연중재 프로그램의 적용과 관련하여 프로그램의 효과를 평가할 수 있는 연구가 필요하다.
