About this study

Official title: A Pattern of Dental Treatment and Oral Rehabilitation for Adult Individuals With Intellectual Disability in General Anaesthesia

This study evaluates the types of dental procedures performed in general anaesthesia for adult persons with intellectual disability, as well as factors affecting the decision to perform the dental treatment in general anaesthesia, factors contributing to tooth loss and possibilities to perform oral rehabilitation procedures

Read the detailed description

Oral diseases are not life threatening and dental procedures usually do not pose significant risk to a patient. In situation where a patient does not tolerate dental treatment, and consequently general anaethesia (GA) is used, an intellectually disabled (ID) patient with a condition that is routinely managed in the general population is exposed to significantly higher medical risk. Quality of oral health care delivery for adults with ID is considered inadequate and in need of constant improvement. Therefore, the present study aims to analyse the type of dental treatment performed in GA and factors affecting the treatment. By its design this is an observational, epidemiological, retrospective study. A representative sample of the target population is realised by the assessment of approximately n=250 ID adults treated at the Dental Clinic of Vojvodina. A number of parameters such as severity of ID, the presence of concomitant conditions, living arrangements, medical diagnoses, physical status according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists' classification (ASA score), history of previous surgical/GA treatments and injuries/trauma, frequency of dental visits, procedures that were conducted in GA and during routine dental treatment (RDT), dental status including DMFT (decay, missed, filled teeth index) and total number of extracted teeth and data about oral rehabilitation.The use of GA emphasizes the inequalities in persons with ID, since it is always more radical compared to RDT. It is a frequent occurrence that with the use of GA only prevention of complications and pain relief are accomplished, resulting in a multiple teeth extractions. This approach inevitably leads to further dysfunctions in cranio-facial system, affecting all aspects of everyday life in persons with ID.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Types of the dental procedures in general anaesthesiaOther

    Analysis of the mean number of preventive, prophylactic, therapeutic and rehabilitation procedures

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Tooth loss analysis calculated as T fraction in DMFT teeth after the procedure

    The analysis of the mean number of extracted teeth per patient during dental procedure in general anaesthesia. Correlations (odds-ratios) between the level of ID, the presence of comorbidities, institutionalisation and tooth loss

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Oral rehabilitation analysis calculated as care index (CI), defined as the number of restored teeth as a fraction of the total number of decayed (D), missing (M) and filled (F) teeth (CI= F/DMF × 100).

    The analysis of oral rehabilitation procedures performed during general anaesthesia.Correlations (odds-ratios) between the level of ID, the presence of comorbidities, institutionalisation and the level of CI

    Measured: 6months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intellectual Disabilities (F70-F79), run by University of Novi Sad at 1 site in Serbia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Serbia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Bojan B Petrovic, PhD (+38163342639, bojan.petrovic@mf.uns.ac.rs), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tooth loss analysis calculated as T fraction in DMFT teeth after the procedure (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Jan 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
