How the Hindi OHIP questionnaire detects quality-of-life changes after periodontal treatment

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Adults with confirmed periodontitis who can complete questionnaires will receive nonsurgical periodontal therapy and complete the Hindi OHIP before and after treatment. The study will estimate the Minimal Important Difference (MID) of the OHIP-P-HIN using two distribution-based metrics (standardized effect size and standardized response mean) and an anchor-based approach using a global transition scale. Distribution-based methods will compare mean change scores to baseline variability, while the anchor links score changes to patients' own rating of change. Results will determine how responsive the Hindi OHIP is to patient-reported changes following periodontal care.
