Changes in the oral environment and changes in the perception of ICU nurses due to the cleaning method

Research project name

Changes in the oral environment and changes in the perception of ICU nurses due to the cleaning method

Purpose and Method of Research

Purpose

The aim is to maintain and improve the patient's oral environment by introducing a more effective oral care method (cleaning method) and conducting oral care more consciously and carefully.

Method

Oral care is performed by cleaning method at least three times a day. Observe and evaluate the condition in the oral cavity every 3-4 days from the day of hospitalization using an objective index called OHAT-J. ICU nurses, in cooperation with dental hygienists, hold regular study sessions to acquire more effective oral care skills.

Subject of research

Patients in ICU who are unable to provide oral care such as toothpaste due to impaired consciousness.

Research Period

From November 2023 to December 31, 2024

Types of specimens and information used in research

Gender, age, name of illness, consciousness, presence or absence of oral intake, oral conditions (evaluation items of OHAT-J: visual observation of lips, tongue, gums, mucous membranes and saliva), presence or absence of vomiting at hospitalization

Acquisition and storage of samples and information

We use medical data such as electronic medical records. The data is stored in a password-protected USB and stored in a locked cabinet.

The burden and expected risks and benefits arising from research subjects

Oral care provided to patients is a method that is also recognized by academic societies, and we believe that higher quality care is provided. Therefore, the burden and risk on patients are not predicted.
