A perception survey of informed consent among dentists and dental students

为了解牙医和牙科学生对知情同意及其规范性的掌握情况，进行了知觉调查，并进行比较。此外，通过对口腔卫生学校学生的调查，对924名牙医、2437名牙科学生和271名口腔卫生学校学生进行了综合观察。约99%的牙医回答说，他们考虑到了知情同意的强制执行，而4.4%的牙科学生认为这是不够的。对于正规化问题，17%的牙医、35.6%的牙科学生和61.6%的口腔卫生学校学生对《规范》给予了肯定的回答。对于病历表的公开，4.8%的牙医、18.6%的牙科学生和18.8%的口腔卫生专业学生认为应该公开。有53%的牙医和口腔卫生专业的学生给出了“知情同意”的回答，而给出回答的牙科学生中有高达%。从上述结果来看，牙医一般从实践的角度理解知情同意的必要性，但学生从局外人的角度严格理解知情同意。

Furthermore, a synthetic observation was made supplementary through the survey in students of dental hygienic schools as well.The subjects included 924 dentists, 2437 dental students and 271 students in dental hygienic schools. About 99% of dentists answered that they bear the enforcement of informed consent in mind, while 4.4% of dental students consider it to be insufficient. As for its regularization, the answer of "better of regulate" was received from 17% of dentists, 35.6% of dental students and 61.6% of students in dental hygienic schools. Concerning the disclosure of patient's chart, 4.8% of dentists, 18.6% of dental students and 18.8% of dental hygienic students answered that 'it should be disclosed'. The answer of 'disclosed as the case may be' was given by about 53% each of dentists and dental hygienic students but by as high as 64% of dental students.From the results mentioned above, it seems that dentists generally grasp the necessity of informed consent from the practical standpoint but students understand it strictly from standpoint of outsider.
