随着罗素牙周指数(PI)的发展，近半个世纪前开始了旨在提高我们对牙周病流行病学的理解的国家努力。美国公共卫生服务机构从1960年至1962年的第一次全国健康检查调查开始了牙周病的全国监测活动，并在全国健康和营养检查调查(NHANES)中定期持续到2004年。在早期的全国健康调查中，牙周病状况是通过使用PI来评估的，但从20世纪80年代开始，在全国健康调查中对临床附着丧失进行了直接测量，并在NHANES中持续到2004年。本文概述了20世纪50年代中期至2005年国家牙周病监测工作的发展和实施情况。它还简要介绍了影响这些国家监测工作的因素的背景资料。
National efforts directed toward improving our understanding of the epidemiology of periodontal disease began nearly a half century ago following the development of Russell's periodontal index (PI). United States Public Health Service agencies began national surveillance activities for periodontal disease with the first National Health Examination Survey in 1960 to 1962, and this continued periodically through 2004 in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Periodontal disease status was assessed by using the PI in the earlier national health surveys, but beginning in the 1980s, direct measures for clinical attachment loss were made in national health surveys and continued through 2004 in NHANES. This article provides a general history of the development and implementation of national surveillance efforts for periodontal disease from the mid-1950s to 2005. It also provides brief background information on the factors that have influenced these national surveillance efforts.
