MEDICAL AND SOCIAL ASPECTS OF MAXILLOFACIAL DISEASES, DEPENDING ON DURATION OF TEMPORARY DISABILITY

Medical and social assistance in maxillofacial diseases includes prophylactic, therapeutic and diagnostic, rehabilitation, prosthetic and orthopedic dentistry, social measures for disabled or invalid patient care, as well as the payment of temporary disability benefits. The source of information was temporary disability cases established by dental medical organizations of the Republic of Tatarstan (analysis of accounting-and-reporting forms 16-BH, 036/y, 035/y, 043/y for the period 2007-2016). The research material was subjected to statistical processing using the methods of parametric and nonparametric analysis in accordance with the results of testing the compared sets for normality of distribution. As a result of the research, it was found that there were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of temporary disability cases in maxillofacial diseases by gender, depending on the month of the year (p=0.611). Regardless of the season, the rate of complaints was higher among women, ranging from 53.1% in November to 60.4% in May. The statistically significant differences in the distribution of temporary disability cases by age groups depending on the month of treatment were revealed (p=0.035). Also, in accordance with the data obtained, the highest values differed in the duration of temporary disability cases due to the treatment of patients with maxillofacial diseases in August. The shortest temporary disability cases were noted in December and March.
