Summary

Many pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions are used to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Nurses are directly responsible for implementing non-pharmacological interventions and therefore have an important role in preventing VAP. The most important non-pharmacological nursing interventions to prevent VAP are hand hygiene and oral care. In addition, the head of the bed should be elevated to 30°-45°, head pressure should be monitored, and subglottic aspiration should be performed. Various care packages have been developed to prevent VAP. It has been determined that these care packages reduce the incidence of VAP. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the aspiration care package applied in the intensive care unit on preventing the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia, and it was planned as a quasi-experimental study.
