Effect Of Clustered Nursing Interventions On Physiological Response In Critically Ill Patients
- Conditions
- Mechanically Ventilated Patients
- Registration Number
- NCT04134481
- Lead Sponsor
- Alexandria University
- Brief Summary
To determine physiological responses related to clustered nursing interventions among critically ill patients.
- Detailed Description
Clustered nursing interventions are defined as group of interventions more than six for each patient in one nursing interaction.The study was conducted on 80 mechanically ventilated adult patients admitted to intensive care units of Alexandria Main University Hospital and Damanhour Medical National Institute. The most common procedures provided by nurses in direct care for those patients were vital signs measurements, central venous pressure measurement, suctioning, feeding, laboratory sampling, general care, repositioning, and administration of medications. Physiological parameters measured were end-tidal carbon dioxide using capnography, vital signs using bed side monitor, and oxygen saturation using pulse oximeter.
