| contents | <p>Abstract<br>Managing medically compromised patients and medical emergencies is a critical component of<br>dental practice.<br>To evaluate the awareness, skills, and practical experience of dental students and interns in<br>handling medical emergencies and managing medically compromised patients.<br>This cross-sectional study was conducted at-college of dentistry Jizan university Saudi Arabia<br>during. A total of 175 participants including dental students from the 4th year, 5th, 6th, and interns<br>of the dental field. Data was collected through a questionnaire, which had been developed<br>specifically to assess the participant's knowledge and skills regarding the management of medically<br>compromised patients and medical emergencies.<br>Interns represented the largest group, comprising 31% of the participants, reflecting their<br>significant clinical exposure and training. Fifth-year BDS students accounted for 26%, followed by<br>fourth-year BDS students at 22%, while sixth-year BDS students made up 21% of the total. Only<br>44% reported recording vital signs, and 77.1% checked medical records, highlighting<br>inconsistencies in preventive practices. Basic Life Support (BLS) training participation was low at<br>32%, with only 16.5% attending workshops on medical emergency training, despite 72%<br>acknowledging the importance of regular BLS renewal.<br>It is concluded that awareness and skills related to medical emergencies among dental<br>students improve progressively with training levels, with interns demonstrating the highest<br>awareness.</p> |
