Abstract

There are 82 dental hygiene departments and clinical training institutes across the country with a very wide range of clinical practice content and evaluation methods, making standardization difficult. Therefore, there is a need to establish a standard protocol outlining clinical practice content and evaluation methods for systematic and efficient operation of clinical practice. Thus, this study attempted to propose such a protocol for standardization of dental hygiene clinical practice in dental clinics and hospitals to examine the contents of clinical practice by reviewing relevant literature, and relating it to professional practice within the dental hygienic curriculum to facilitate enhancement of expertise. Clinical practice content was extracted from 74 cases, and was consisted of classifying mandatory and optional clinical practice, training time, and activity methods for each component. To standardize effective clinical practice, it is necessary to organize the components acquired in the course of clinical dentistry training in line with their arrangement on each university's curriculum, in order to learn all components step by step. To do this, it is necessary to present a standardized clinical practice protocol and a organic cooperation between educational institutions and clinical training institutions.

전국 82개의 치위생(학)과의 임상실습 교과목은 필수 교과목으로 운영되고 있으며, 임상실습 기관은 대학병원부터 개인 치과의원까지 범위가 넓고, 실습시간별 교육환경이 달라 임상실습 내용과 평가방법이 다양하게 이루어지고 있으며, 치위생학 교육과정과 실무와의 연계 및 전문성 제고를 위한 임상실습 표준화에 대한 요구도가 높아지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 치과위생사 2차 직무기술서와 선행연구에서 파악한 임상실습 항목을 목록화 하여 총 156개 항목 중 74개(47.4%)의 임상실습 내용을 추출하였으며 각 임상실습 내용에 대해 필수 및 선택실습 여부, 실습시기, 활동방법을 구체적으로 제시하였다. 실습일정은 전반부(1주차), 중반부(2~3주차), 후반부(4주차)로 구분하고, 활동방법을 관찰, 준비, 수행, 교육으로 구분하여 임상실습 기관에서 학생들에게 임상실습을 지도할 수 있도록 시범운영을 진행하였다. 각 대학별 교과과정을 기반한 임상실습 내용 배치를 위해서는 임상실습 선수교과목으로 이수한 임상치의학 교과목을 중심으로 임상실습 내용을 구성하도록 하여 단계별로 임상실습 내용을 모두 달성할 수 있도록 해야 하며, 이를 위해서는 교육기관과 임상실습 기관의 유기적인 협력관계뿐 아니라 표준화된 임상실습 프로토콜이 제시되어야 할 필요성이 있겠다.
