Summary

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of two different methods (traditional bed bathing and disposable antibacterial wipe bathing) on vital signs in patients on mechanical ventilation support.

Detailed description

The study is planned as a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of the performance of two types of bed (bed-traditional and disposable antibacterial wipe bath) on respiratory parameters and vital signs in adult patients with different clinical conditions connected to mechanical ventilation. At the end of the study, it is aimed to evaluate the effect of traditional and disposable antibacterial wiping baths on vital signs in patients on mechanical ventilation support. Relatives of the patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be informed about the purpose, content and method of the study and the sample group (experimental and control) will be formed by obtaining written permission from those who voluntarily agree to participate in the study. Determination of the experimental and control groups will be provided by https://www.randomizer.org/ website. The wiping bath protocol with disposable antibacterial wipes will be applied to the experimental group in accordance with the literature, and the traditional bed bath protocol will be applied to the patients in the control group by the researcher himself. Patient Information Form containing information about the demographic characteristics and medical status of the patients included in the study; vital signs (pulse, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, respiratory rate and SpO2) and blood gas data will be recorded 3 times in total (before the bath - current blood gas value, immediately after the bath - morning routine blood gas, 30 minutes or more after the bath - the first blood gas taken with the physician's order) based on the values in the routine blood gas measurements of the clinic, partial arterial oxygen and partial arterial carbon dioxide parameters will be recorded in the vital signs follow-up form. All data collection tools will be completed by the researcher himself.
