Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of spray use on dry mouth and thirst of patients who had undergone major abdominal surgery. The methods used to alleviate the thirst and dry mouth experienced by patients undergoing major abdominal surgery are limited. This research was conducted as a randomized controlled trial.
The primary objective of the study is to test whether the tested Product LACIME Anti-hangover is effective in preventing the signs and symptoms of alcohol-induced hangover (such as headache, impaired memory, depression, anxiety, weakness, trouble sleeping and concentrating, nausea, dizziness, sleepiness, thirsty, dry mouth, sweating, sensitivity to light and sounds, vision problems) in healthy subjects.
Thirst is defined as the desire for water seeking and consumption, and is a prevalent symptom in the immediate postoperative period in all age groups. The elderly surgical patient, despite presenting reduced physiological responses to thirst and satiety, in clinical practice, it is observed that they have high thirst intensity. There is evidence that strategies using cold temperatures are effective in quenching thirst of the surgical patient, for this reason, the present study is justified, in order to find strategies that help to reduce thirst in this specific population that is the elderly surgical patient.
Thirst is defined as the desire to drink water. The perception and satiation of thirst constitute an interconnected network of neuronal, physiological and hormonal mechanisms that act simultaneously. In the oropharyngeal cavity are ionic channels called Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 stimulated by cold temperatures and menthol, which aid in the control and decrease of the thirst intensity for providing refreshment and satiety without, however, the necessity of fluid intake In high amounts.
The study evaluates the effectiveness of an Intervention Bundle on Thirst Intensity and Dry Mouth among Patients admitted in ICUs. Patients were randomized into two groups - Experimental and Control group. Experimental group received intervention Bundle whereas control group didn't receive any intervention. Usual care was continued in both the groups.
The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of menthol chewing gum compared to maintained fasting (usual care) in reducing the intensity of the surgical patient's thirst during the preoperative period. The hypothesis of the study was that the use of menthol chewing gum in surgical patients in the preoperative period would be more effective than the maintenance of fasting with regard to the decrease in thirst and its discomforts.
Perioperative intravenous fluid (IV) administration has been the standard procedure since 1832 and, is a widely used practice sometimes under inadequate criteria. The present work aims at verifying the clinical need that justifies the common IV fluid prescription on the postoperative (PO) period in patients undergoing videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy (CVL) elective.
The aim of this study is to elucidate whether GLP-1 analogues influence not only appetite but also thirst perception. It is hypothesized that GLP-1 analogues reduce fluid intake in healthy volunteers compared to Placebo.
Package of mentholated measures for the relief of thirst in the anesthesia recovery room: Randomized clinical trial
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of ice popsicle compared with water at room temperature in relieving thirst in the immediate postoperative period . The hypothesis of the study is that ice has 20% greater efficacy than water to relieve thirst in the immediate postoperative period.
