Abstract

The aims of this study were to measure the valuation of oral hygiene of intubated adult patients among nurses, verify if they identify and record nursing diagnoses and prescription concerning to changes in the oral cavity; checking the records and interventions of nursing staff related to oral hygiene. Exploratory study conducted in the Intensive Care Units in a university hospital through questionnaire and analysis of records. The sample consisted of 47 (72.3%) nurses, 65 nurses and 53 medical records analyzed. The results revealed that the average score assigned by nurses according to the valuation of oral hygiene was 83. Most nurses reported that they had assessed the conditions of the oral cavity and prescribed the oral hygiene. Records were not found in the related nursing diagnoses. In 67% of the records evaluated there were annotations on the implementation of the oral hygiene by nursing technicians. The average score appointed by nurses is consistent with the recognition of the importance of procedure, but the records are flawed or nonexistent.
