Abstract
La presente investigación de tipo básica, descriptiva, transversal y observacional, determinó el nivel
de conocimiento que tienen los estudiantes de 4º, 5º y 6º año de Estomatología de la Universidad
Nacional de Trujillo sobre prescripción de Antiinflamatorios No Esteroideos (AINEs) y antibióticos
en odontopediatría.
Se evaluó una muestra de 63 estudiantes, de éstos 20 fueron de 4º año,17 de 5º año y 26 de 6º año;
los cuales luego de haber expresado mediante la firma del consentimiento informado su deseo de
participar de la investigación, resolvieron un cuestionario de veintidós preguntas objetivas
relacionadas con Farmacología de AINEs y antibióticos en Odontopediatría.
Los estudiantes de 4º a 6º año de Estomatología mostraron un nivel de conocimientos sobre AINEs
y antibióticos deficiente en un 71.4%; y aceptable en un 28.6%. Y según el año de estudio, los
estudiantes con mayores conocimientos sobre ambos medicamentos fueron los de 6° año (19%),
seguido de 5° año (7.9%) y 4° año (1.6%).
En cuanto a AINEs, el nivel de conocimiento fue deficiente (81%), mientras que la minoría tuvo un
conocimiento aceptable (19%). Además, según el año de estudio, los estudiantes con mayores
conocimientos sobre AINEs fueron los de 6° año (14.3%), seguido de 5° año (3.2%) y 4° año (1.6%).
El conocimiento sobre antibióticos fue en su mayoría deficiente (79.4%), mientras que la minoría
tuvo un conocimiento aceptable (20.6%). Además, según el año de estudio, los estudiantes con
mayores conocimientos sobre antibióticos fueron los de 6° año (15.9%), seguido de 5° año (3.2%) y
4° año (1.6%).
La prueba estadística Chi cuadrado mostró diferencias significativas en los conocimientos sobre
AINEs y antibióticos según el año de estudio (p<0.05).
De la investigación se concluye que los estudiantes de 4º a 6º año de carrera tuvieron un nivel de
conocimiento deficiente sobre prescripción de AINEs y antibióticos en Odontopediatría, además
existe diferencias significativas según el año de estudio. De lo cual deviene la importancia de mejorar
las estrategias educativas del curso y motivar a los estudiantes a tomar una mayor participación y
responsabilidad del conocimiento del área farmacológica.
The present research, of basic, descriptive, cross-sectional, and observational type, determined the level of knowledge that 4th, 5th, and 6th-year Stomatology students at the National University of Trujillo have regarding the prescription of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and antibiotics in pediatric dentistry. A sample of 63 students was evaluated, of which 20 were from the 4th year, 17 from the 5th year, and 26 from the 6th year. After expressing their desire to participate in the research by signing the informed consent form, they answered a questionnaire of twenty-two objective questions related to the Pharmacology of NSAIDs and antibiotics in Pediatric Dentistry. Stomatology students from the 4th to the 6th year showed a deficient level of knowledge about NSAIDs and antibiotics in 71.4%, and acceptable in 28.6%. And according to the year of study, students with higher knowledge about both medications are those in the 6th year (19%), followed by the 5th year (7.9%), and the 4th year (1.6%). Regarding NSAIDs, the level of knowledge was deficient (81%), while the minority had acceptable knowledge (19%). Additionally, according to the year of study, students with the greatest knowledge about NSAIDs are those in the 6th year (14.3%), followed by the 5th year (3.2%), and 4th year (1.6%). Knowledge about antibiotics was mostly deficient (79.4%), while the minority had acceptable knowledge (20.6%). Additionally, according to the year of study, students with the greatest knowledge about antibiotics are those in the 6th year (15.9%), followed by the 5th year (3.2%), and 4th year (1.6%). The chi-square statistical test showed significant differences in knowledge about both types of medication according to the year of study. (p<0.05). It is concluded from the research that students presented a deficient level of knowledge regarding the prescription of NSAIDs and antibiotics in Pediatric Dentistry, and there are significant differences according to the year of study. This underscores the importance of improving the educational strategies of the course and motivating students to take greater participation and responsibility for the knowledge in the pharmacological area.
