Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical effect of electric toothbrush on oral care among patients with orotreacheal intubation. Methods A total of 100 cases of orotracheal intubation were randomly divided into two groups, 50 cases in observation group and 50 cases in control group. The patients of observation group used electric toothbrush with chlorhexidine for oral care, and the patients of control group received the traditional oral care method. Results The oral cavity cleanness (80% ofⅠdegree) in the observation group were significantly better than 24% Ⅰdegree cleanness patients of the control group, while the Ⅱ and Ⅲ degree were 16% and 4% of the observation group were lower than 46% and 30% of the control group (χ2 =26. 606, 10. 519, 11. 977;P<0. 01). The 3rd day of bacteria culture obtained 28% of negative rate lower than that of 56% in the control group (χ2 =8. 046;P<0. 01). The patients of observation group utilized (9. 78 ± 1. 16) min/time compared with (8. 91 ± 0. 96) min/time (t=4. 121,P<0. 01). There was no statistical significance on the difference of adverse event rate between two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusions The clinical effect of oral care using electric toothbrush with chlorhexidine compared with patients with orotracheal intubation, the former one is better than the traditional oral care method.
