Abstract:
Measurement of hemodynamic factors might be helpful regarding assessment of causal systemic association, in relation to Oro-dental disorders. Therefore aim of this study was to evaluate a rela-tionship between basic hemodynamic parameters & Oro-dental disorders. This cross sectional study was conducted in the Baqai Dental College Hospital Outpatient Clinic. The random sampling was done using predesigned questionnaires. All the patients who had definitive oro-dental problems were included in this study. 100 patient’s data was found to be complete and was evaluated by using SPSS version 20. The data showed mean age group was 34.3; SD 15.4. 51% were males and 73% were mar-ried. 12% patients were diabetic & hypertensive. Clinical oro-dental problems were mainly dental pain alone, dental pain with swelling, dental pain with bleeding, and or dental pain with swelling - bleeding. Assessment of basic hemodynamic parameters showed mean respiratory rate per minutes was 20.4; SD 2.9. The mean heart rate per minutes was 79.86; SD 13.5. 47% found to have elevated blood pressure and 90% patients were afebrile. Statistical examination showed males / females had pain alone 27.45% & 20.40% and pain with swelling was 37.25% & 32. 65% respectively. The cor-relation of basic hemodynamic status showed that despite verbal denial of elevated blood pressures, 47% had elevated BP, tachypnea, mild tachycardia without fever. This clearly identifies that patients with oro-dental problems were hemodynamically stressed.
