A Review of Chlorhexidine Oral Care in Patients Receiving Mechanical . . . To examine the current evidence for the efficacy of chlorhexidine gluconate in reducing the incidence of ventilator-associated events, mortality, intensive care unit length of stay, and duration of mechanical ventilation in patients receiving ventilator support
Chlorhexidine Oral Care and Mechanical Ventilation We evaluated the impact of oral care with chlorhexidine on nosocomial pneumonia, mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, intensive care length of stay, hospital length of stay, and antibiotic use
Oral Chlorhexidine Use to Prevent Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia in Adults Oral health is managed by proper oral care using oral chlorhexidine in order to decrease oral bacteria and potential oropharynx colonization The previously mentioned literature review demonstrates a decrease in VAP rates with the use of such oral interventions as chlorhexidine
A Review of Chlorhexidine Oral Care in Patients. . . : Critical Care Nurse To examine the current evidence for the efficacy of chlorhexidine gluconate in reducing the incidence of ventilator-associated events, mortality, intensive care unit length of stay, and duration of mechanical ventilation in patients receiving ventilator support
Chlorhexidine is not effective at any concentration in preventing . . . Results: Chlorhexidine did not demonstrate any significant advantage over the control group in preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia or reducing mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of stay in the intensive care unit, or overall mortality
Chlorhexidine and ventilator-associated pneumonia Based on the evidence currently available, we believe that oral hygiene with chlorhexidine should continue to be a valid option, following a standardized protocol, in patients on invasive mechanical ventilation
Journal of Mechanical Ventilation Due to chlorhexidine’s controversial conclusions on its impact on ventilator-associated pneumonia rates and the possibility of increased mortality, routine oral care with chlorhexidine is not recommended
