Introduction: oral infection is one of the most common disturbances in the intensive care units ICUs, especially with the critical intubated patients. Application of oral care policy works as a very important action in preventing the infection. ADHA improved that using of Chlorhexidine Gloconate 0.12% and Povidone Iodine 1% solutions in oral care can contribute to preventing oral infection. Goal: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of applying oral care policy to the oral infection rate with intubated patients. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted at the intensive care units of AL-Basel Hospital (Tartous), a convent sample of 45 patients. Beck Oral Assessment Scale was used to assess the oral status and results after 72 hours of applying oral care policies for the two experimental groups and the control groups. Results: our results demonstrate the important of applying oral care policy, rate of infection decreased in the first control group (p= 0.000*) which received first oral care policy procedures (Chlorhexidine Gloconate 0.12%); it was (Povidone Iodine 1%) in the second control group (normal saline 0.9%) in the last control group. Conclusions and Recommendations: our present study results recommend applying oral care policy (Chlorhexidine Gloconate 0.12%, Povidone Iodine 1%) because of its affect in preventing oral infections for critical intubated patients.

Research summary
تتناول هذه الدراسة تأثير تطبيق سياسة العناية بالفم على معدل حدوث الإنتان الفموي لدى مرضى الحالات الحرجة المنببين في وحدات الرعاية المركزة. تم إجراء البحث على عينة من 45 مريضًا في مستشفى الباسل بطرطوس، حيث تم تقسيمهم إلى ثلاث مجموعات: مجموعة تجريبية أولى تلقت محلول غلوكونات الكلورهيكزيدين 0.12%، ومجموعة تجريبية ثانية تلقت محلول البوفيدون أيودين 1%، ومجموعة ضابطة تلقت المحلول الملحي المعتدل. أظهرت النتائج أن تطبيق سياسة العناية بالفم باستخدام غلوكونات الكلورهيكزيدين 0.12% كان الأكثر فعالية في خفض معدل حدوث الإنتان الفموي، يليه البوفيدون أيودين 1%، بينما كانت النتائج أقل فعالية في المجموعة الضابطة. توصي الدراسة بتطبيق سياسة العناية بالفم باستخدام هذه المحاليل للحد من الإنتان الفموي لدى مرضى الحالات الحرجة المنببين.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تقدم هذه الدراسة مساهمة مهمة في مجال العناية الفموية لمرضى الحالات الحرجة المنببين، حيث أظهرت فعالية استخدام محاليل معينة في خفض معدل حدوث الإنتان الفموي. ومع ذلك، يمكن توجيه بعض الانتقادات البناءة للدراسة. أولاً، حجم العينة كان محدودًا (45 مريضًا فقط)، مما قد يؤثر على تعميم النتائج. ثانيًا، لم يتم تناول تأثير العوامل الأخرى مثل نوعية التغذية والأدوية المستخدمة على نتائج الدراسة. ثالثًا، كان من الأفضل تضمين مجموعة أكبر من المحاليل الفموية لمقارنة فعالية كل منها بشكل أوسع. أخيرًا، لم يتم مناقشة التكلفة الاقتصادية لتطبيق هذه السياسات بشكل كافٍ، وهو عامل مهم يجب مراعاته في البيئات الصحية ذات الموارد المحدودة.

Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), especially ventilated patients, are at considerable risk of developing ocular surface disease because the protective eye mechanisms are damage, as decrease eyelid closure ,unable blinking, decreased produc ing tears, increased expose the eye to pathogen bacteria . These factors often result in incomplete lid closure and expose and decay the eye, and this called the exposure keratopathy, which appear that high rate with ventilated patients. The eye care is a part of the providing care to every patient in critical care units. Whereas the Unconscious and Sedation and paralysis patients are the most serious group and the most need to the eye care for maintain the eye in a state of normal.objective:To determine the effect kind of eye care policy on incidence rate of exposure keratopathyamong mechanically ventilated patients.
Dysphagia considers the most important and common in neurological system patient on critical care units. Objective: The aim of this study was to study the effect of nursing care policy on dysphagia in neurological system patients in critical care u nits. Material and method: the study was conducted on 40 patients divided on four groups (Shaker Exercise, Mendelsohn maneuver, [Shaker Exercise, and Mendelsohn maneuver] and control group) in critical care units in the Assad university hospital and the National Hospital whom have dysphagia. The data was collected by using the personal information form, and the dysphagia severity scale. Results: This study showed that Shaker Exercise, and Mendelsohn maneuver together were the most effective in reduce dysphagia levels and recommended about importance of Shaker Exercise, and Mendelsohn maneuver for patients with dysphagia.
Introduction: Sleep disturbance is common among patients in intensive care units (ICUs). Changes in clinical practice to promote sleep in the ICUs have been sporadic. The European Respiratory Society and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicin e recognize that massage therapy may improve quality of sleep. Goal: This study was conducted to identify the effects of back and face massage on sleep quality in ICU patients. Material and Methods: A sample of 45 patients in intensive care units in Al-Assad University Hospital and Alwatani Hospital were recruited in the study. Both the massage and control participants were evaluated for sleep quality by Groningen sleep quality scale, 1 hour after administration of the protocol. Results: The effectiveness of back and face massage, as quality of sleep, is significantly improved (p=0.000) in the experimental back and face massage groups (mean score 3.9981), and (mean score 4,4043) respectively, than in control group (mean score – 0.8117). In conclusion, our data suggest that back and face massage therapy is effective in improving the quality of sleep in ICU patients
Upper abdominal surgery patients are considered more vulnerable to changes in pulmonary function and therefore to acute decrease in respiratory function. physical treatment techniques play an important role, especially deep breathing exercises and th e use of incentive spirometry device as well as walking, which have an important role in improving pulmonary function. here lies the nursing role in the training of patients to use those technologies and encouraging them toapplyearlypostoperatively. The aims of the study is toassess the effect of implementing nursing policy (deep breathing exercises , the use of incentive spirometer and walking) on respiratory function among upper abdominal surgery patients.The sample comprised 45 patients chosen randomly from thetwogenders who were prepared to upper abdominal surgery in Al-Assad University Hospital,Each patient implemented nursing policy and assessed pulmonary functionby using a spirometer device and measured the degree of arterial blood oxygen saturation by Oxygenation –pulse measurement. We can notice from the results of this study that the implement of nursing policy contributed to the preservation of respiratory function in patients with the two experimental groups , particularly in the experimental group 2, which have the lower decrease in the pulmonary functions values and the degree of arterial blood oxygen saturation .
Fever is a common problem in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, A large proportion of patients admitted to the ICU are likely to develop fever of unknown origin at some point of their stay there. Objective: This study aimed to compare between the effects of the application of iced gastric lavage with the application of ice packs to reduce the temperature among critically ill patients. Material and methods: the study was conducted of (40) critically ill patients at ICU department at Al Assad University Hospital and Al Wattani Hospital in Latakia city whose were intubated and there temperature degree ranged from 39 °C to 40 °C lasting for more than 30 minutes ago. The sample was randomly divided into two experimental groups. Two tools were used to collect data. Results: This study showed that iced gastric lavage is more effective than using iced packs to reduce the temperature among critically ill patients. Recommendations: this study recommended to Apply iced gastric lavage alone or with other methods to reduce the temperature degree among critically ill patients.
