| Abstract | CILJ ISTRAŽIVANJA. Prikazati učestalost izrade očnih proteza i vrste od 1995. do 2018. godine, učestalost vrsta izrađenih proteza, privremenih ili trajnih te učestalost izrade pojedinih vrsta s obzirom na spol, dob, lijevo ili desno ili oba oka i podrijetlo bolesnika s obzirom na državu iz koje dolazi. NACRT STUDIJE. Presječno istraživanje iz povijesnih podataka. BOLESNICI I METODE. U istraživanje su uključeni svi bolesnici kojima je izrađena očna proteza. Podatci su preuzeti iz postojećih evidencijskih zapisa. REZULTATI. Kod 2223 bolesnika izrađeno je 4850 proteza, najviše punih i ljuskastih. Protezu desnog oka ima 48,7 %, a lijevog oka 47,5 % bolesnika. Za 3,8 % bolesnika ne postoji podatak u evidenciji. 90,8 % bolesnika je iz Hrvatske, a od ostalih zemalja najviše su zastupljene Bosna i Hercegovina, Slovenija i Sjeverna Makedonija. Puna proteza izrađena je u 72,5 % slučajeva. Ljuskasta proteza izrađena je kod 19,4 % bolesnika, prema otisku je izrađeno 5,4 % proteza, keratoproteza je 0,6 %. Epitezu ima 1,5 % bolesnika. Ukupno je 32 (1,4 %) bolesnika s protezom oba oka. ZAKLJUČAK. S obzirom na oko za koje je izrađena proteza nema značajnih razlika (χ2 test, P = 0,31). S obzirom na spol, značajno je više muškaraca, osim u dobnim skupinama od 71 i više godina, gdje je značajno više žena (χ2 test, P < 0,001). Značajno više žena ima epitezu u odnosu na muškarce (χ2 test, P = 0,005). Kod bolesnika koji imaju protezu oba oka nema značajne razlike u odnosu na spol (χ2 test, P = 0,06). |
| Abstract (english) | OBJECTIVES. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency and types of ocular prostheses manufactured from 1995 to 2018, temporary or permanent ones, depending on gender, age, left or right eye or both as well as the patients’ country of origin. STUDY DESIGN. A cross sectional study. PATIENTS AND METHODS. The study included patients with ocular prosthesis manufactured in Ocular prosthetics “Dr Popijač”from 1995 to 2018. Data were collected form the administrative and medical records. RESULTS. Statistical analysis of the data obtained showed that during the given period 2223 patients were supplied with 4850 ocular prostheses. 48.7% of patients needed right eye prosthesis, 47.5% left eye prosthesis and no data were found for 3.8% of patients. Most of the patients (90.8%) were from Croatia. Regarding the types of ocular prosthesis, full thickness prosthesis were produced for 72.5% of patients, scleral shell for 19.4%, prosthesis according to the impression of the eye socket for 5.4% and keratoprosthesis for 0.6% of patients. 1.4% of patients needed prostheses for both eyes and 1.5% of patients needed orbital prosthesis (epithesis). CONCLUSION. The number of manufactured ocular prostheses in a given period is constantly increasing. Considering the eye for which the prosthesis was been made, there are no significant differences between the left and right eye (χ2 test, P=0.31). Regarding the gender, there are significantly more males, with exception of the age group of 71 and over, where there are significantly more females (χ2 test, P<0.001). Significantly more females have an orbital prosthesis than males (χ2 test, P=0.005). There are no significant differences regarding the gender in patients with prostheses of both eyes (χ2 test, P=0.06). |
