Background: Capnography is an essential instrument for tracking metabolic and respiratory activity. According to the the ETCO2 level to predict metabolic acidosis with patient with mechanical ventilation admitted in ICU. Purpose: The purpose of current study was to predict the metabolic acidosis among patient on mechanical ventilator support. Materials and methods; A study was descriptive-analytical study design, was conducted in the host institution of Saveetha Medical College and Hospitals. There were 60 samples in ICU using purposive sampling techniques on the inclusion criteria within 24 hours of admission. In ICU collect data from every intubated patient with mechanical ventilator support along with ETCO2 probe connecting to the Endotracheal tube, Monitoring capnography values and comparison with the ABG values to predict metabolic acidosis. Results: Out of 60 samples with respect to capnography with EtCO2 the mean score of Bicarbonate level among patients with metabolic acidosis was 21.97±3.37 and the mean score of ETCO2 was 44.70±7.24. The calculated Karl Pearson’s Correlation value of r = -0.303 shows a negative correlation which was found to be statistically significant at p
Background: Cerebrovascular disease is defined by the World Health Organization from rapidly progressing clinical signs of focal impairment of brain function lasting more than 24 hours or clinical signs of focal neuropathy due to persistent obstruction of the blood supply or intracerebral haemorrhage. Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, is a serious, life-threatening condition that affects many patients in the first hours and days after a stroke.Objective:To determine the effectiveness of swallowing exercise on dysphagia among patient with Cerebrovascular accident in experimental group.Methods:A Quasi-experimental research design was adopted for the study with 60 samples who met the inclusion criteria at Saveetha Medical College and Hospital. Samples were selected by using purposive sampling technique and samples were assigned into the experimental group(N=30) and the control group (N=30). The samples are selected by using Gugging swallowing screen scale to pre-test assessment both experimental and control group. The experimental group receivedthe swallowing exercises for 10 minutes per day before breakfast in the morning for five consecutive days. The control group received hospital routine care. The post assessments were done by using Gugging Swallowing Screen at the end of 5th day of intervention to both the experimental and control group. Results:Out of 30 samples in experimental group the pretest mean score of dysphagia among dysphagia was 14.0±3.21 and the posttest mean score was 17.0±3.25. The mean difference score was 3.0. The calculated paired‘t’ test value was found to be statistically significant at p
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
