Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Tracheostomy Suctioning II: Procedure

Tracheostomy Suctioning II: Procedure

Tracheostomy suctioning is a vital nursing procedure that involves removing secretions from the tracheostomy tube to maintain airway patency and prevent respiratory complications. Nurses need to understand the proper technique for tracheostomy suctioning to ensure patient safety and comfort. In this guide, we will outline the step-by-step process for performing tracheostomy suctioning, including preparing the sterile field, donning personal protective equipment (PPE), lubricating and connecting...

Summary

Oral health care (OHC) is crucial post-stroke but challenging due to physical and cognitive deficits. This review highlights limited specialized OHC, inadequate professional knowledge, and the need for better education and protocols for stroke survivors.

Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Public Health
Gerontology

Background:

Post-stroke health issues can stem from or worsen with neglected oral health care (OHC).
Physical impairments (hemiparesis, hemiplegia) and cognitive deficits complicate OHC for stroke survivors.

Purpose of the Study:

To conduct a scoping review and summarize the current knowledge on oral health care (OHC) in the stroke population.
Identify gaps in research, practice, and education regarding OHC for individuals post-stroke.

Main Methods:

A comprehensive literature search was performed across multiple databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE).
Keywords included "oral health," "dental care," "stroke," and related terms.
Included English articles from 1970-2013 focusing on OHC in stroke patients, with clinical trials requiring ≥50% stroke participants.

Main Results:

Sixty articles were included, focusing on OHC importance, current research, and practice.
Key OHC concerns include mastication, dysphagia, nutrition, hygiene, prostheses, and quality of life.
Limited specialized care, assessment tools, guidelines, and protocols exist for stroke-related OHC.

Conclusions:

There is a significant need for specialized OHC interventions and tailored protocols for stroke survivors.
Inadequate knowledge among dental professionals and nurses necessitates improved education for healthcare providers, patients, and caregivers.
Enhancing OHC for stroke patients is vital for improving their overall health outcomes and quality of life.
