Summary

This study was conducted to examine the effect of a systematic oral care protocol on bacterial colonization of the oral mucosa in non-mechanically ventilated stroke patients. This experimental study was conducted in Bakirkoy Prof. Dr. Mazhar Osman Research and Training Hospital for Psychiatry, Neurology and Neurosurgery between January -June 2020. The research was carried out with 42 stroke patients who were hospitalized in the intensive care unit but not underwent mechanical ventilation. A standardized oral care protocol was developed and applied to the patients in the experimental group three times a day. The control group underwent non-standardized oral care, which is available in the routine practice of the clinic. Two groups were compared at baseline and at the 5th day of hospital stay in terms of bacterial colonization, oral cavity and complications.
