简要总结
This study aims to examine the effects of different oral care methods on oral health in patients receiving non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) in the intensive care unit. A randomized controlled experimental design will be employed, with three groups: Control Group - patients receiving only the standard chlorhexidine oral care kit; Electric Toothbrush Group - patients receiving the chlorhexidine kit in combination with an electric toothbrush and toothpaste; and Manual Toothbrush Group - patients receiving the chlorhexidine kit along with a manual toothbrush and toothpaste. Data collection tools will include the Patient Demographic Information Form, Oral Assessment Guide, saliva pH measurement, and salivation assessment using the Schirmer Tear Test Strip. The study is designed to compare the effects of different oral care methods on the oral health of patients receiving NIMV and to identify the most effective method.

结局指标
主要结局
Oral Health Status
时间窗: From day 1 to day 3 (3 consecutive days).
Oral health will be assessed using the Oral Assessment Guide (OAG). The guide examines eight areas (voice, swallowing, lips, tongue, saliva, mucous membranes, gums, and teeth/dentures). Each item is scored from 1 (healthy) to 3 (severely impaired). The total score ranges from 8-24. Scale score (8-24). A low score indicates good oral health, while a high score indicates deterioration in oral health.
次要结局
- Saliva pH Value(From day 1 to day 3 (3 consecutive days).)
