Resumo: | Objective: To evaluate knowledge and attitudes towards biosafety recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic at a Brazilian dental school. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed in 2020 with the clinical staff of a Brazilian dental school. The whole clinical staff was sent pre-tested selfadministered online questionnaires about knowledge and attitudes towards the recommendations for biosafety in dental settings in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Descriptive statistical analyses were carried out for proportion calculation. Results: Disposable head covering caps, isolation gowns, and gloves were the most frequently reported personal protective equipment (PPE). The rates ranged from 52.9% to 88.5% for N95 respirators, from 68.6% to 92.6% for face shields, from 47.4% to 67.5% for conventional eye protection shields, and 45.1% to 77.4% for eye protection with solid side shields. Chlorhexidine gluconate was the most frequent mouthwash indicated before clinical dental care. The percentage of agreement to provide clinical care to patients with suspected COVID-19 varied from 23.5% to 50.0%. The percentage of respondents who agreed that bioaerosol-generating procedures should be avoided was higher than 74.5%. Less than 50% knew the correct sequence for doffing of PPE. Conclusion: This study revealed important gaps in knowledge and attitudes towards prevention and control measures against infection in dental environments in the context of COVID-19, indicating the need for improvements. |

Material e Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal em 2020 com o corpo clínico de uma faculdade de odontologia brasileira. A todo o corpo clínico foram enviados questionários on-line pré-testados e autoadministrados sobre conhecimentos e atitudes em relação as recomendações para biossegurança em ambientes odontológicos no contexto da pandemia de COVID-19. Foram realizadas análises estatísticas descritivas para cálculo de proporções. Resultados: Toucas descartáveis, aventais de isolamento e luvas foram os equipamentos de proteção individual (EPI) mais frequentemente relatados. As taxas variaram de 52,9% a 88,5% para respiradores N95, de 68,6% a 92,6% para protetores faciais, de 47,4% a 67,5% para protetores oculares convencionais e 45,1% a 77,4% para proteção ocular com protetores laterais sólidos. O gluconato de clorexidina foi o enxaguatório bucal mais frequentemente indicado antes do atendimento clínico odontológico. O percentual de concordância para prestar atendimento clínico a pacientes com suspeita de COVID-19 variou de 23,5% a 50,0%. O percentual de entrevistados que concordaram que procedimentos geradores de bioaerossóis deveriam ser evitados foi superior a 74,5%. Menos de 50% sabiam a sequência correta de retirada dos EPI. Conclusão: Este estudo revelou lacunas importantes no conhecimento e nas atitudes em relação às medidas de prevenção e controle de infecção em ambientes odontológicos no contexto da COVID-19, indicando a necessidade de melhorias.engUniversidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMGBrasilFAO - DEPARTAMENTO DE ODONTOLOGIA SOCIAL E PREVENTIVAPesquisa Brasileira em Odontopediatria e Clínica IntegradaCOVID-19Educação em odontologiaControle de infecções dentáriasCOVID-19Dental educationDental infection controlStaff knowledge and attitudes towards COVID-19 new biosafety practices at a brazilian dental schoolConhecimento e atitudes dos funcionários em relação às novas práticas de biossegurança da COVID-19 em uma faculdade de odontologia brasileirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://www.scielo.br/j/pboci/a/HvWq6LDxJkbFGsGRMj7dryf/?lang=en#Ana Carolina Marques-MedeirosRenata de Castro MartinsMaria Elisa de Souza e SilvaÊnio Lacerda VillaçaLeandro Napier SouzaMaria Auxiliadora Parreiras MartinsRicardo Santiago GomezMauro Henrique Nogueira Guimarães de Abreuapplication/pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGLICENSELicense.txtLicense.txttext/plain;

Objective: To evaluate knowledge and attitudes towards biosafety recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic at a Brazilian dental school. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed in 2020 with the clinical staff of a Brazilian dental school. The whole clinical staff was sent pre-tested selfadministered online questionnaires about knowledge and attitudes towards the recommendations for biosafety in dental settings in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Descriptive statistical analyses were carried out for proportion calculation. Results: Disposable head covering caps, isolation gowns, and gloves were the most frequently reported personal protective equipment (PPE). The rates ranged from 52.9% to 88.5% for N95 respirators, from 68.6% to 92.6% for face shields, from 47.4% to 67.5% for conventional eye protection shields, and 45.1% to 77.4% for eye protection with solid side shields. Chlorhexidine gluconate was the most frequent mouthwash indicated before clinical dental care. The percentage of agreement to provide clinical care to patients with suspected COVID-19 varied from 23.5% to 50.0%. The percentage of respondents who agreed that bioaerosol-generating procedures should be avoided was higher than 74.5%. Less than 50% knew the correct sequence for doffing of PPE. Conclusion: This study revealed important gaps in knowledge and attitudes towards prevention and control measures against infection in dental environments in the context of COVID-19, indicating the need for improvements. |
