DHG 230 Exam II
Exam II
Term | Definition |
---|---|
- Operates under CDC and ASTDD - Water fluoridation - Oral health indicators - States must have access to data for decision making | NOHSS (National Oral Health Surveillance System) |
- Based on current needs and priorities - Focus on how people live their lives - Increases the amount of people who use the oral healthcare system | LHI (Leading Health Indicators) |
- Operated under CDC - Uniqueness: interviews and exams - Self-reporting - Major source of assessment and surveillance data, designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of health and nutritional status of adults and children in the U.S. | NHANES (national Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) |
detects small differences | sensitivity |
death rate resulting from disease or condition in population | mortality |
- significant difference exists between the data by comparing the observed frequencies to the expected frequencies - Questionnaire data - Ex: 3 groups are all assigned a different type of toothbrush and switched so each group uses each type | chi-square test |
we accept the null hypothesis, but it is false and should have been rejected | type II error |
both variables increase/decrease | positive |
- The result is likely to be a chance occurrence - If score is due to chance rule: No if the p < .05 Yes if the p > .05 | statistical significance |
- Designed by ASTDD - Basic oral health screening and referral for preschool and school children, older adults - Tongue blade, mirror, lighting - Self-reporting - Rapid assessment using visual detection and providing info about dental and oral lesions | BSS (Basic Screening Survey) |
- Provides guidelines for state debts - Provides direction for public health professionals - Promotes health equity and quality of life - Eliminates oral health disparities - Achieve oral health and total health for all populations | ASTDD (Association of State Territorial Dental Directors) |
- Based on self-reporting on perception of health - Overall well-being | HRQOL (Health Related Quality of Life) |
- Ability to speak, smile, smell, taste, touch, chew, swallow, and convey range of emotions with confidence, without pain, discomfort, and disease - Measured by personal rating of health, # of healthy days, and years of healthy life - Self-reporting | OHQOL (Oral Health Related Quality of Life) |
ongoing systemic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health-related data essential to planning, implementing, and evaluating public health practice (NOHSS, NHANES) | surveillance |
measures what it intended to measure | validity |
- reproducible, measure consistently at different times - Can be reproduced by the same examiner or different examiner with the same results | reliability |
each individual examiner is scoring equivalently time and time again (same examiner with same examiner) | intra-rater reliability |
consistency exists between 2 or more examiners | inter-rater reliability |
- To assess oral cleanliness by estimating tooth surfaces covered with debris or calculus - DI+CI= OHI-S - DI= total debris scored/# of teeth (0-3) - CI= total calculus score/ # of teeth (0-3) - OHI= 0-6 - Reversible | OHI & OHI-S (indices) |
- Provides standardized survey and eval of periodontal treatment needs of patients with suspected disease - Records: periodontal pockets, gingival inflammation, dental calculus, plaque retentive factors | CPITN (indices) |
- Determines status of dental caries activity of permanent dentition - Posterior = 5 - Anterior = 4 - only teeth affected by caries can be counted - When it comes to a tooth with decay and filling, always count it as decay - Irreversible | DMFT & DMFS (indices) |
- Determines status of dental caries activity of primary dentition - DMF: decay, missing, filled - DF: decay, filled - DEF: decay, extracted filled - All based on if teeth are affected by caries - Irreversible | DMF, DF, DEF (indices) |
- inflammation and bleeding - Does not look at pocket depth or bone loss - GBI - both sides of interdental papilla, uses dental floss - SBI - evaluates 4 gingival areas per tooth for bleeding, uses probe - Scored 0-5 (5 being the worst) - Reversible | GBI & SBI (indices) |
- Plaque Index - Assess extent of soft deposits (biofilm) - 4 surfaces examined (buccal, lingual, mesial, distal) - Procedure: plaque score - Scored 0-3 - Reversible | PLI (indices) |
- extent of biofilm/debris - All teeth are disclosed - Scoring on 5 sections of 6 teeth (3, 8, 14, 19, 24, 30) - Modified version = Ramjford teeth - 1 point given to each surface covered (3 surfaces out of 5= 0.6) - Scored 0-5 - Reversible | PHP (patient hygiene performance) & PHP-M (modified) (indices) |
- Monitors gingival health of patient - Checks interproximal areas - Wooden interdental cleaner is inserted between teeth on buccal side - Scored by dividing total # of spaces that bled by total # of spaces evaluated - Reversible | EIBI (Eastman Interdental Bleeding Index) (indices) |
- fluorosis in selected age group - Included in NHANES - Scored on all surfaces of fully erupted permanent teeth except 3rd molars, teeth not fully erupted and teeth half covered by restorations, caries, or ortho - Scored 0-4 - Irreversible | Dean's Classification for Dental Fluorosis (indices) |
- Used to measure caries on root surface of affected teeth - Only exposed root surfaces are scored (mesial, distal, buccal, lingual) - Irreversible | RCI (Root Caries Index) (indices) |
Small, intentionally chosen sample, "trial run" | pilot study |
types of analytical studies | cross-sectional, case-control, cohort |
- Info about a carefully chosen population - One point in time - Survey, chart review - Response rates can cause bias - No intervention | Cross sectional studies (observational) |
- Retrospective - looks back - "Case group" already have disease or outcome, "control group" is healthy - Relies on subjects' memory, may cause bias - Ex: people with/without lung cancer (smoker or nonsmoker) | Case control studies (observational) |
- behavior, condition, environmental exposure, don't have disease already - Prospective - followed over time - Does variable cause or protect disease - can cause bias - Ex: group with/without risk factor of tobacco (do or don't get lung cancer) | Cohort studies (observational) |
- Individual case - Focuses on specific findings and alters other clinicians to these findings - No control groups | Case reports (observational) |
- 2 or more similar cases - May reveal information that will assist in diagnosis | Case series (observational) |
average affected by extreme scores | mean |
most | mode |
arrange in ascending order not affected by extreme score most reliable | median |
4 scales of measurement | nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio |
organized into categories and put into rank order based on criteria | ordinal |
organized into categories; no order or numerical value; republicans/democrats, female/male | nominal |
measurement like the ordinal scale but the units of measurement are equal; no zero point; Fahrenheit or degrees | interval |
absolute zero; BP, height, weight, # of teeth, age | ratio |
condition that is manipulated or controlled, experimental variable | independent variable |
measure thought to change because of presence or absence or manipulation of the independent variable (depends) | dependent variable |
