摘要
Introduction: Surveys distributed among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses reveal a significant need for dental care, with many acknowledging poor oral hygiene management. Poor oral health in ICU patients is linked to systemic problems, including aspiration pneumonia, necessitating pre-intervention assessments for bacterial diseases and dental risks. This study aims to evaluate the oral health status of ICU patients across three institutions through retrospective analysis. Methods: This retrospective study assessed the oral health status of ICU patients, using computed tomography (CT) images from three institutions over ten years. Through CT images, the oral status was evaluated in terms of total and lost tooth count and the presence of oral lesions (periapical lesions, cysts and tumors, caries, tartar, moderate to severe periodontal bone loss, tooth fractures). Variables included gender, age, the duration of ICU stay, and types of ICU. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square tests, independent-sample t-tests, and logistic regression analysis. Results: Of the 450 participants, 430 were analyzed, revealing a prevalence of oral lesions in 67.0% of subjects. The prevalence of oral lesions was higher in males (71.5%) than females (57.7%, p = 0.006), and higher in those aged 40 and above (72.1%) compared to those under the age of 40 (47.8%, p < 0.001). This study found significant differences in oral health status based on gender, age, and ICU type, with surgical ICU patients generally having better oral health. Risk factors for oral lesions included gender, age, and duration of ICU stay. Conclusions: Most ICU patients have at least one oral lesion, regardless of the reason for their ICU admission. In particular, male ICU patients aged 40 and above have a higher prevalence of oral lesions, necessitating careful oral health assessment and treatment.
