Chlorhexidine Gluconate Oral Care for Adults Experiencing Trauma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Examine the use of 0.12% Chlorhexidine Gluconate as an adjunct to current oral care protocol for trauma patients on ventilator support to decrease the incidence of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia and oral bacterial load.

Clinical Trial Description

To see a significant decrease in the bacterial load in the oral mucosa and subsequently, a decrease in the pathogenesis of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia through the use of an oral rinse containing 0.12% Chlorhexidine Gluconate as part of an oral care protocol. Current oral care protocol includes the use of 1.5% H2O2-coated swabs every four hours, toothbrushing with toothpaste every 12 hours, and use of continuous subglottic suction apparatus. ;
