Study type | Interventional |
The purpose of this study is to compare the traditional bed bath with 'washing without
water' on
- 1) effects on skin integrity
- 2) patient and nurse satisfaction and 3) costs. In a cluster randomized trial we will
randomize 50 nursing home wards (576 patients) to 'washing without water' or
traditional bed baths. Bathing regimens are continued for six weeks.
Whereas effects on skin damage are not likely to be specific for setting, these results can
be generalized to other patient groups.
