Resumo: | Oral health care plays a part in the integral recovery of hospitalized older people. Based on that, this study characterized the oral health care of hospitalized older people in a Brazilian public hospital. Through application of questionnaires, this cross-sectional study assessed oral health care practice by hospital nursing staff (n=31), companions (n=134) and hospitalized older people (n=200) of a public hospital in Southern Brazil. Clinical examination was conducted by two previously calibrated examiners to screen the oral health condition of the patients, considering the presence of cavitated lesions, residual roots, visible biofilm, calculus, gum inflammation and bleeding. Data were analysed descriptively. Nursing staff limits oral health assessment to surgical procedures; 55% of nurses and 58% of companions do not supervise the oral hygiene, but 81% and 96%, respectively, claim to perform oral hygiene of elderly with difficulties to do so. The elderly (51%) claimed to brush their teeth 3x/day or more; yet, their oral health was characterized by the presence of visible biofilm, calculus, gingival inflammation and bleeding and decayed teeth. Oral health advisory or assessment is not part of the hospital routine. Companions and hospital nursing staff are willing to receive oral health care information. Poor oral health was observed in hospitalized older people, which would probably be enhanced by an interdisciplinary educational approach towards oral health care to older patients. |

Con base en eso, este estudio caracterizó la atención a la salud bucal de ancianos hospitalizados en un hospital público brasileño. A través de la aplicación de cuestionarios, este estudio transversal evaluó la práctica del cuidado de la salud bucal del personal de enfermería hospitalario (n=31), acompañantes (n=134) y ancianos hospitalizados (n=200) de un hospital público en el Sur de Brasil. El examen clínico fue realizado por dos examinadores previamente calibrados para tamizar el estado de salud bucal de los pacientes, considerando la presencia de lesiones cavitadas, raíces residuales, biopelícula visible, cálculo, inflamación de las encías y sangrado. Los datos se analizaron descriptivamente. El personal de enfermería limita la evaluación de la salud bucal a los procedimientos quirúrgicos; el 55% de las enfermeras y el 58% de los acompañantes no supervisan la higiene bucal, pero el 81% y el 96%, respectivamente, afirman realizar la higiene bucal de los ancianos con dificultades para hacerlo. Los ancianos (51%) afirmaron cepillarse los dientes 3 veces al día o más; sin embargo, su salud oral se caracterizó por la presencia de biopelícula visible, cálculo, inflamación gingival y dientes cariados y sangrantes. El asesoramiento o la evaluación de la salud bucal no forma parte de la rutina del hospital. Los acompañantes y el personal de enfermería del hospital están dispuestos a recibir información sobre el cuidado de la salud bucal. Se observó una mala salud bucal en los ancianos hospitalizados, lo que probablemente mejoraría con un enfoque educativo interdisciplinario hacia el cuidado de la salud bucal de los pacientes mayores.A atenção à saúde bucal faz parte da recuperação integral do idoso hospitalizado. Com base nisso, este estudo caracterizou a atenção à saúde bucal de idosos internados em um hospital público brasileiro. Por meio da aplicação de questionários, este estudo transversal avaliou a prática assistencial em saúde bucal da equipe de enfermagem hospitalar (n=31), acompanhantes (n=134) e idosos hospitalizados (n=200) de um hospital público do Sul do Brasil. O exame clínico foi realizado por dois examinadores previamente calibrados para triagem do estado de saúde bucal dos pacientes, considerando a presença de lesões cavitadas, raízes residuais, biofilme visível, cálculo, inflamação gengival e sangramento. Os dados foram analisados descritivamente. A equipe de enfermagem limita a avaliação da saúde bucal aos procedimentos cirúrgicos; 55% dos enfermeiros e 58% dos acompanhantes não supervisionam a higiene bucal, mas 81% e 96%, respectivamente, afirmam realizar a higiene bucal de idosos com dificuldades. Os idosos (51%) relataram escovar os dentes 3 vezes ao dia ou mais; no entanto, sua saúde bucal foi caracterizada pela presença de biofilme visível, cálculo, inflamação e sangramento gengival e dentes cariados. A avaliação da saúde bucal não faz parte da rotina hospitalar. Acompanhantes e equipe de enfermagem do hospital estão dispostos a receber informações sobre cuidados com a saúde bucal. Uma saúde bucal precária foi observada nos idosos hospitalizados, o que provavelmente melhoraria com uma abordagem educacional interdisciplinar para os cuidados com a saúde bucal dos pacientes idosos.Research, Society and Development2022-02-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2656510.33448/rsd-v11i3.26565Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 3; e38711326565Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 3; e38711326565Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 3; e387113265652525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/26565/23356Copyright (c) 2022 Cristiano Regis Alba; Crhis Netto de Brum; Rafaela Lasta; Michele Gassen Kellermann; Vanessa da Silva Corralo; Otávio Pereira D'Ávila; Clodoaldo Antônio de Sá; Sinval Adalberto Rodrigues-Juniorhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlba, Cristiano RegisBrum, Crhis Netto de Lasta, Rafaela Kellermann, Michele GassenCorralo, Vanessa da SilvaD'Ávila, Otávio PereiraSá, Clodoaldo Antônio de Rodrigues-Junior, Sinval Adalberto 2022-03-09T13:44:38Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/26565Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:44:34.376804Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
