Abstract:
Objective:To explore the risk factors of oral fungal infection in patients with severe hepatitis, and the prevention role of nystatin oral care combined with precision health education on oral fungal infection.Methods:A total of 150 patients with severe hepatitis who were hospitalized for diagnosis and treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2018 to February 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to the random number table method, they were divided into the observation group (given nystatin oral care combined with precision health education intervention) and the control group (given routine oral care combined with precision health education intervention), 75 cases in each group. The incidence of oral fungal infections in the two groups after the intervention were compared.Results:The fungal infection rate in the observation group at 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after intervention were 2.67% (2/75), 4.00% (3/75), 8.00% (6/75), which were significantly lower than 12.00% (9/75), 18.67% (14/75), 25.33% (19/75) in the control group ( χ2=4.81, 8.03, 8.11, all P<0.05). Four weeks after the intervention, among the 6 patients with fungal infection in the observation group, there were 5 cases of oral leukoplakia and foreign body sensation in the pharynx, and 1 patient with oral leukoplakia; among the 19 patients with fungal infection in the control group, all had oral mucosal leukoplakia. There were 17 cases of leukoplakia and pharyngeal foreign body sensation, and 2 cases of oral leukoplakia. Conclusions:Nystatin oral care combined with precision health education is of great significance in patients with severe hepatitis, and can effectively reduce the incidence of oral fungal infections.
