background: oral care plays an inevitable role in health and well-being of patients in intensive care units (icus). poor oral care causes colonization of respiratory pathogens and secondary respiratory infections. ventilator-associated pneumonia occurs in patients on mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours. it results in prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation, mortality and health e...
conclusions central nervous system depressant was an important risk factor for vap among poisoned patients. hypoventilation due to cns depression can lead to vap. the apache ii and length of hospital stay were shown as independent predictors of vap and mortality among these patients. results the mean age of the patients was 33.9 ± 14.3 years. the probable vap incidence and mortality were 22% an...
background and purpose: implementing the guidelines to prevent vap has been shown to have a significant effect on reducing the incidence of vap. studies indicate that icu staff have poor knowledge and low implementation rate of the standard preventive measures related to vap. the present study aims to evaluate the knowledge of nurses in the intensive care unit in university hospitals of sari. m...
conclusions the study showed that hais were more frequent in elderly population predominately with respect to vap and infections by gram-negative pathogens. overall mortally was greater in the elderly group although the odds ratio for death was higher in younger patients and increased with every hai diagnosed. patients and methods retrospective analysis of all hospital-acquired infections (hais...
because microaspiration of contaminated supraglottic secretions past the endotracheal tube cuff is considered to be central in the pathogenesis of pneumonia, improved design of tracheal tubes with new cuff material and shape have reduced the size and number of folds, which together with the addition of suction ports above the cuff to drain pooled subglottic secretions leads to reduced aspiratio...
Background & Aim: The ventilator associated pneumonia is a common problem in critical care units. It is associated with increased mortality, cost and length of stay. Nurses have great role in preventing the ventilator associated pneumonia. The aim of this study was to assess nurses' performance in prevention of ventilator associated pneumonia . Methods & Materials: In this descriptive s...
Introduction: Ventilator-associated pneumonia is one of important factors of morbidity and mortality in critical care units, associated with hospitalization day’s and increased cost of treatment. Thus prevention through identifying related factors must be highly recommended Objective: This study is conducted by the aim of determining the nurses understanding of physician-nurse relation...
Background and Objective: Ventilator-associated pneumonia is a common infection in intensive care units leading to increased morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to examine the effects of mechanical (tooth brushing), pharmacological (topical oral chlorhexidine), and their combination (tooth brushing plus chlorhexidine) in oral care on preventing the ventilator-associated pneumonia ...
Abstract Background and Objective: Bacterial colonization in upper respiratory airways is one of the major risk factors for the development of the ventilator–associated pneumonia (VAP), which is the most common and serious hospital-acquired infection in intensive care unit (ICU). The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of oropharyngeal microorganisms of patients with tracheal t...
