No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of an optimized suctioning procedure on the risk of endotracheal microaspiration, measured by tracheal to oropharyngeal ratio of amylase enzymatic activity.

Conditions

  • Ventilator Acquired Pneumonia
  • Aspiration

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Optimized oral care

An optimization of the oropharyngeal suction procedure will include use of a subglottic drainage in a specified order: 1. subglottic suction, 1.oral suction followed by mouth care 3. subglottic suction 4. tracheal suction

OTHER

Routine oral care

Oral suction followed by mouth care and tracheal suction without any subglottic suction
