Resumen
El proyecto: “Conocimiento y prácticas de las medidas de
bioseguridad de los odontólogos de las provincias del
Imbabura, Carchi y Bolívar”, respondió a la necesidad de
evaluar los procedimientos de bioseguridad usados en la
atención primaria de salud oral en los consultorios
odontológicos de esa zona del país, los cuales sumados a
investigaciones de iguales características de las demás
provincias, permitirá tener un referente estadístico a nivel
nacional de las condiciones de bioseguridad en las que se
desenvuelven las unidades operativas de odontología. La
responsabilidad profesional de conocer y aplicar métodos de
bioseguridad, es un requerimiento fundamental en los
programas de atención odontológica, debido a los riesgos muy
altos de contaminación antes, durante y después de cualquier
procedimiento asistencial, ya que se maneja sustancias
químicas radioactivas y fluidos corporales altamente
contaminantes, la exposición a los mismos, se da de manera
secuencial y permanente. La cavidad oral, es portadora y
receptora de la mayor cantidad de microorganismos patógenos
causantes de enfermedades infectocontagiosas focales y
xiii
sistémicas, requiriendo que los profesionales adopten
rigurosas medidas de bioseguridad preventivas que
contemplen: Conocimientos actualizados de bioseguridad,
infraestructura física y técnica optima, los principios de
universalidad relacionados al echo cierto que todo paciente es
un potencial contaminante, manejo técnico y adecuado de los
desechos, uso adecuado de las técnicas de barrera. La
investigación por ser un estudio sin precedentes en el
Ecuador, permitirá aportar con datos reales y actualizados
sobre las prácticas de bioseguridad de los profesionales de
odontología. El diseño metodológico del proyecto de
investigación corresponde a un estudio descriptivo transversal
cuantitativo y cualitativo. La técnica de recolección de datos
se realiza mediante la observación, entrevistas y encuestas. El
universo corresponde a los odontólogos federados que prestan
sus servicios en las unidades operativas del ministerio de
salud, seguro social y organizaciones no gubernamentales que
prestan servicios en la comunidad.
The project: Knowledge and Practices of Biosecurity from Dentists of Carchi, Imbabura and Guaranda States Responds to the need to assess the biosecurity procedures used in primary oral health care of the Dental Clinics in the state area. Professional responsibility to understand and apply methods of biosecurity, is a fundamental requirement in the curricula of dental care, due to very high risks of contamination before, during and after any process of care, since it handles chemicals, radiation and Corporal fluids highly contaminated, the exposure is given in sequence and permanent The oral cavity is a carrier and receiving the greatest number of pathogens that cause diseases and systemic focus. The investigation by a study be unprecedented in Ecuador, allows to provide real data and updated on biosecurity practices of dental professionals. The methodological design of the research project is a cross sectional study quantitatively and qualitatively. xv The technique of data collection was performed by observation, interviews and surveys. The universe went to the federal dentists who provide services in the operational units of the Ministry of Health, Social Security and Non- Governmental Organizations We found that the dentist provide services in extremely high percentage in General Dentistry, knowledge of Biosecurity heterogeneous are having a marked deficits, especially in technical barrier and principles of universality The implementation of procedures for Biosecurity is partly, non-Dentist applies with all biosecurity measures and some of their actions are totally ignored. It follows that the dentist did not have the appropriate knowledge to ensure the adequacy in the management of biosecurity measures, coupled with other factors that prevent compliance with the proper implementation of all its principles.
