Summary

While medical adhesives provide fixation of devices and catheters in neonatal intensive care, they can cause disruption of skin integrity when removed. Therefore, when detecting medical devices, it is important to choose products that will not harm babies' skin and to use different occlusive dressings (polymer foams, hydrogel dressings, hydrocolloid dressings).

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of different types of patches (Hydrocolloid dressing and Hypoallergenic Flexible Patch) used in the detection of oragastric catheter (OG) in preterm babies hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit in preventing skin damage.

Conditions

  • Neonatal Skin Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Hydrocolloid dressing

After the oral gastric tube is placed on the premature baby and fixed with a Hydrocolloid dressing, the fixed patch will be removed after 24 hours using a silicone-based spray remover.

OTHER

Hypoallergenic Flexible

After the oral gastric tube is placed on the premature baby and fixed with a hypoallergenic flexible patch, the fixed patch will be removed after 24 hours using a silicone-based spray remover.
