Abstract: Objective To explore the preventive effect of standardized skin care on reducing the incidence of incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) in patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods Totally 100 patients who had developed urinary and fecal incontinence from May 2016 to May 2017 in Guangzhou Panyu Central Hospital were selected and received standardized skin care. The incidence and severity of IAD in these patients were observed. Results Totally 31 patients developed IAD, accounting for 31%. Among them, 22 patients showed a mild level, 6 showed a medium level, and 5 showed a severe level. Conclusions Standardized skin care has a good preventive effect on reducing the incidence of IAD in ICU patients.
