摘要: This study aimed to clarify the effectiveness of post-operative oral care, including tooth brushing, denture cleaning and tongue cleaning, after digestive tract surgery. Subjects included 30 elderly patients aged 60-98 years (74.9 +/- 7.8 years) who underwent were randomly divided into an intervention group a control group. In group, following care was provided daily over 5-min period in morning starting at baseline (day surgery) continued for 5 days: gargling with povidone iodine, using special brush brush. subjects only gargled iodine. We compared variables between two groups days later: sensation dry mouth, intra-oral gas concentration, pulmonary sounds, body temperature bacterial flora. The number abnormal sounds (dry or moist rales) increased from 1 2 0 4 (P < 0.05). average species per subject 3.64 1.34 pre-operatively 3.50 1.74 post-operatively, whereas that 3.08 0.95 2.62 0.65 post-operatively. there significant decrease These findings indicate undergoing surgery lowers found cavity. effect, turn, might improve respiratory function.
