Oral care is very important for patients in intensive care units. Studies
have shown that oral care is directly related to the incidence of
ventilator-associated pneumonia, and that patients with VAP will increase the
number of hospital stays, machine ventilation time, and medical costs. The
patient is in great pain, so oral care may seem simple but far-reaching.
Oral Sponge Brush
Therefore, we will first introduce how traditional oral care is performed: Although traditional oral care can effectively remove plaque, it is difficult to treat the teeth and teeth of patients with tracheal intubation due to the blockage of intubation and dental pads. Thorough cleaning of seams, tongue coatings, throat, etc., especially patients with a lot of thick sputum, easy to form phlegm on the tooth surface, tongue surface, must be repeatedly wiped with more cotton balls and the effect is not ideal.
In addition, traditional oral care needs to prepare a material including a mouth care bag, for a large number of purulent sputum, teeth between the teeth, the upper jaw, throat and other sputum gas-cut coma patients, use this can be wiped clean, or homemade materials to prepare : One vascular forceps and one small cotton ball (5-8 packs). For patients with tracheal intubation, this can also be used to wipe. Because the tracheal intubation is in the oral cavity, it is impossible to wipe it all in place. When wiping it, the cotton ball soaked with normal saline is not dried or wet. It takes a cotton ball to wipe out and then screw it. The most important point is that the wipe is not clean when the intensity is light, and the oral mucosa is easily damaged when the intensity is strong, and there is a risk of infection.
Let me introduce this Oral Sponge Brush is a sponge on the head. The handle is soft and can be connected to the suction tube. When the oral cavity has a bad smell or sputum, you can directly use this worm-suction toothbrush for oral care. Simple Convenient, and the oral mucosa is not easy to break.
In addition, compared with traditional oral care, which only wipes with a cotton ball, flushing toothbrushes in oral care applications combine rinsing and wiping to make the oral care fluid continue to circulate, coupled with shock, impact, and wiping to make the resident stick. The microorganisms in the oral mucosa, the inner surface of the teeth, the underside of the tongue, the base of the tongue, the teeth, and the pads and cannula are shed and sucked out with the irrigation solution. This thorough cleaning can reduce oral odor, and can also reduce department material consumption, is it more perfect?
