Abstract: Objective To observe the effect of modified breathing machine pipeline applied in mechanical ventilation patients with oxygen therapy. Methods Clinical data of 63 patients with mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit were studied and the patients were admitted from March 2010 to December 2010. 32 patients in experiment group treated by method of modified breathing machine pipeline. 31 patients in the control group used dripping technique via airway for mechanical ventilation. The incidence of oxygen saturation rate, sputum callus formation, airway bleeding, pulmonary infection, the number of daily suctioning, nursing workload were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results The oxygen saturation rate in the observation group increased compared with that of the control group, sputum callus formation, irritating cough, airway bleeding and pulmonary infection were significantly different between 2 groups (t =5. 45,6. 91, 5. 67;P ＜ 0. 01). Conclusions The effect of modified breathing machine pipeline is more reliable, could improve the efficiency and alleviate the nursing workload.
