[Latar belakang: Keadaan mulut yang buruk berdampak pada kualitas hidup
lansia. Studi sebelumnya telah mendapatkan alat ukur kualitas hidup namun
subjek yang digunakan adalah pasien geriatri. Oleh karena itu diperlukan alat ukur
yang baru yang dapat digunakan pada lansia yang sehat.
Tujuan: Mendapatkan alat ukur kualitas hidup lansia yang baru ditinjau dari
aspek kesehatan gigi dan mulut, menganalisis hubungan antara kualitas hidup
dengan kesehatan gigi dan mulut dan mengetahui faktor yang paling
mempengaruhi kualitas hidup lansia.
Metode: Cross-sectional pada 101 lansia. Pencatatan data sosiodemografis dan
pemeriksaan intraoral. Wawancara untuk pengisian kuesioner kualitas hidup
lansia dengan alat ukur yang telah divalidasi.
Hasil: Uji validitas dan reliabilitas menunjukkan hasil yang baik. Hasil uji chisquare
untuk variabel sosiodemografik, OHI-S berhubungan bermakna dengan
penghasilan (p=0.01) dan pendidikan (p=0.004) dan DMF-T berhubungan
bermakna dengan usia (p=0.04). Faktor risiko yang masuk ke dalam model
multivariat adalah variabel usia (p<0.250), variabel penghasilan (p=0.006),
variabel skor OHI-S (p=0.001) dan variabel skor DMF-T (p=0.004). Faktor yang
paling berkontribusi pada kualitas hidup adalah skor DMF-T (p=0,006;
OR=3,328), diikuti skor OHI-S (p=0,009; OR= 3,289), dan tingkat ekonomi
(p=0,005; OR=3,318).
Kesimpulan: Diperoleh alat ukur kualitas hidup yang valid dan reliabel. Faktor
yang mempengaruhi kualitas hidup lansia antara lain DMF-T, OHI-S dan tingkat
ekonomi.
Background: Poor oral health can impact elderly's quality of life. Previous studyhas already create a new Oral Health related Quality of Life but the index wasmainly use for geriatric patients, therefore the new OHRQoL index was neededfor healthy elderly.Objective: to get a new oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL) index forelderly, to analyze the correlation between eldery quality of life and their oralhealth conditions and to determine factors that contribute the most in their qualityof life.Methods: Cross-sectional study was performed towards 101 elderly. Theirdemographic data was collected, intra oral examination was performed. OHRQoLstatus was measured using a new index that combines several index and alreadytested its validity and reliability in a personal interview.Result: the new OHRQoL index had a good validity and reliability.Chi-squaretest showed, OHI-S score was strongly associated with income (p=0.01) andeducation (p=0.004) and DMF-T score was strongly associated with age (p=0.04).OHI-S (p=0.001), age (p<0.025), income (p=0.006) and DMF-T score (p=0.004)are risk factors that were incorporated into multivariate model. From the finalmultivariate model, DMF-T score (p=0,006; OR=3,328), contributed most toOHRQoL, followed by OHI-S score (p=0,009; OR= 3,289), and income (p=0,005;OR=3,318)Conclusion: The new OHRQoL index is valid and realiable to measure theelderly OHRQoL. DMF-T score is the factor that contribute the most in elderlyOHRQoL followed with OHI-S score and income.;Background:. Poor oral health can impact elderly's quality of life.
