Dentalni turizam trenutno je najbrže rastući oblik medicinskog turizma. U Europi predstavlja tržišni udio od oko 50 % ukupne aktivnosti u medicinskom turizmu, dok je u Republici Hrvatskoj najveći izvor zarade u privatnom zdravstvu. Budući da se sve više doktora dentalne medicine u Republici Hrvatskoj, Bosni i Hercegovini i Republici Srbiji odlučuje za bavljenje dentalnim turizmom, cilj je ovoga diplomskog rada prikupiti, statistički analizirati i u konačnici obraditi i objasniti podatke o mišljenjima i stavovima studenata dentalne medicine u tim trima državama o dentalnom turizmu kao djelatnosti koja uvelike utječe na svakodnevni rad, mjesto zaposlenja te način i izbor stručnog usavršavanja stomatologa u tim državama. Istraživanje je provedeno u obliku internetskog anonimnog anketnog upitnika od 20 pitanja koji je ispunilo 326 studenata dentalne medicine s osam fakulteta iz triju navedenih država. Dobiveni podaci statistički su obrađeni pomoću računalnih programa “Microsoft Excel 2010.” i “Statistica“ (Tibco, v. 13. 5. 0. 17, 2018.). Spearman Rank testom izračunani su koeficijenti korelacije. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da velika većina studenata ima pozitivno mišljenje o dentalnom turizmu i da ga doživljavaju kao profitabilnu djelatnost koja pozitivno utječe na kvalitetu stomatoloških radova u njihovim državama. Gotovo polovica studenata nije svjesna etički potencijalno problematičnih aspekata dentalnog turizma i potrebna im je bolja edukacija na tu temu. Unatoč trenutačno lošim perspektivama zbog pada ekonomskih aktivnosti, a naročito dentalnog turizma zbog pandemije bolesti COVID-19, značajan udio studenata i dalje ima planove o bavljenju dentalnim turizmom u budućnosti. Dental tourism is currently the fastest growing form of medical tourism. In Europe, it represents a market share of about 50 percent of total activities in medical tourism, while in the Republic of Croatia it is the largest source of income in private health care. Since more and more dentists in the Republic of Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Serbia decide to engage in dental tourism, the aim of this thesis was to collect, statistically analyze and ultimately process and explain the data on opinions and attitudes of dental students in these three countries on dental tourism as an activity that greatly affects daily work, place of employment and the manner and choice of professional training of dentists in these countries. The research was conducted online in the form of an anonymous survey questionnaire of 20 questions filled out by 326 dental students from eight faculties from the three mentioned countries. The obtained data was statistically processed using computer programs "Microsoft Excel 2010" and “Statistica” (Tibco, v. 13. 5. 0. 17, 2018). The correlation coefficients were calculated by the Spearman Rank test. The results of the research showed that the vast majority of students have a positive opinion about dental tourism and that they perceive it as a profitable activity that positively affects the quality of dental work in their countries. Almost half of the students are not aware of the potentially problematic ethical aspects of dental tourism and need better education on the subject. Despite the currently poor prospects due to the decline in economic activities and especially dental tourism due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a significant proportion of students still have plans to engage in dental tourism in the future. |
