2020年爆发的COVID-19疫情，由于转向远程教学以及缺乏与患者直接接触的实践培训，可能影响学生的临床技能，牙科学校的教学方法发生了巨大变化。这项研究的目的是通过特别设计的问卷评估2020年最后一年牙科学生在进行不同牙科手术时的自信心水平，并将其与2019年最后一年学生的自信心进行比较。于二零二零年十一月，我们向在一个学期内因COVID-19疫情封锁而中断学业的牙科应届毕业生派发了一份匿名问卷，当中包括40个问题，内容有关进行40种不同牙科手术的自信程度，并以5分Likert式量表为基础。研究小组将他们的答案汇总在一起。与对照组进行了比较，对照组由学生对2019年进行的同一问卷的回答组成，作为定期内部教育评估的一部分。治疗组有效率为74.2%，对照组有效率为89.3%。研究组115名学生的平均自信水平（3.28±1.08）显著低于对照组100名学生的平均自信水平（3.58±0.88），且两组学生的自信得分分布存在差异。研究组毕业生在8项临床技能上的自信心低于对照组。2019冠状病毒病疫情导致教学模式的突然变化对最后一年牙科学生的自信心产生了重大影响，表明研究生阶段的额外教育需求。
The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 has dramatically changed teaching approach in dental schools due to the switch to distance learning and the lack of practice training in direct contact with patients with possible impact on clinical skills of students. The aim of the study was to assess the level of the 2020 final year dental students’ self-confidence in performing different dental procedures through specially designed questionnaire and compare it to self-confidence of the 2019 final year students. An anonymous questionnaire consisting of 40 questions regarding self-confidence level in performing 40 different dental procedures and based on five points Likert-like scale was distributed during November 2020 to final year dental students whose studies were disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in one semester. The study group comprised their answers. The comparison was done with the control group that consisted of students’ answers on the same questionnaire from previous 2019 year conducted as a part of regular internal educational evaluation. Response rate was 74.2% in study group and 89.3% in control group. Mean level of self-confidence reported by 115 students in study group was significantly lower than that reported by 100 students in control group (3.28±1.08 vs. 3.58±0.88, respectively) and the distribution of self-confidence scores were different in observed groups. Graduates from study group felt less confident than those from control in 8 clinical skills. Abrupt changes in teaching modalities caused by COVID-19 pandemic had significant impact on final year dental students’ self-confidence indicating additional educational needs in postgraduate period.
