“…In studies conducted on premature infants and newborns, it was stated that the heart rate increased significantly during and immediately after bathing, whereas the heart rates began to decrease in subsequent measurements (Ar & Gözen, 2018; Çaka & Gözen, 2018; Lee, 2002; So et al, 2014; Tapia-Rombo et al, 2003; Taşdemir & Efe, 2019). In a study with children, Kızıl (2015) stated that the heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressure of children were found to be highest immediately after traditional bed baths and lowest 30 minutes afterwards.…”

“…It was reported that bathing in adults and newborns caused heat loss, and measurements after bathing were found to be lower than those before bathing (Ar & Gözen, 2018; Çaka & Gözen, 2018; Ceylan & Bolışık, 2018; Edraki et al, 2014; Kuller, 2014; Taşdemir & Efe, 2019; Zaybak & Güneş, 2009). In a study in which the body temperatures of children who had traditional bed baths were analyzed, it was stated that the body temperature was the lowest immediately after the bath, and measurements taken 30 minutes after the bath were found below the values before bathing (Kızıl, 2015).…”

“…In the study in which Taşdemir and Efe (2019) examined the effect of bathtub and disposable bed baths on the physiologic variables of newborns, the authors stated that both bathing methods increased the oxygen saturation of the newborn. In a traditional bed bath for intubated children under mechanical ventilation, Kızıl (2015) stated that oxygen saturation reached its maximum value 30 minutes after bathing.…”

To determine the effect of traditional and disposable bed baths performed in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) on the physiologic parameters of children. This research was conducted as a randomized controlled trial with children who were monitored in the PICU. It was found that the pulse and blood pressure immediately after the bath were higher for both bath applications and was the lowest 30 minutes after the bath ( p < .05). Children who used traditional baths had a lower body temperature than those who used the disposable bed bath after bathing for the second day. Oxygen saturation averages were found that within the group to be the highest 30 minutes after bathing methods ( p < .05). Both bathing methods applied in the PICU had a positive effect on physiologic parameters. It may be recommended to regularly perform the most appropriate bathing for patients with stable hemodynamics in PICUs.

Background: Illness and hospitalization generally require modifications in personal hygiene practices. During hospitalization and especially in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), patients experience situations involving the need for personal hygiene, procedures performed on them due to limitations arising as a result of the ill condition. Bed bathing is an intervention that must be performed in critical patients with the aim of meeting personal hygiene needs in critical patients, but it is necessary to carry out close monitoring and control to avoid side effects, such as hemodynamic status instability. Objectives:: To determine the effect of bathing in bed with warm water on vital signs and oxygen saturation in adult patients attached with mechanical ventilators. Methods:: This study is a quasi-experimental study involving 18 samples determined by total sampling technique based on inclusion criteria: Patients attached to mechanical ventilators, aged 18 years or older, stable in hemodynamics and exclusion criteria: Attached drugs for the heart, patients with head injuries, receiving drug therapy to lower body temperature.Results: The paired t-test results showed an effect between bathing in bed with warm water on systole blood pressure (p = 0.042; p < 0.005), breathing (p = 0.009), and pulse rate (p = 0.025). There was no effect between bathing in bed with warm water on diastole blood pressure (p = 0.063), body temperature (p = 0.862) and oxygen saturation (p = 0.120). Conclusions : Bed bathing affects systolic blood pressure, breathing, pulse rate and has no effect on diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, and oxygen saturation. However, during bathing in bed should always pay attention to changes that occur in vital signs and oxygen saturation.

The Effects of Bed Bathing on Vital Signs and Oxygen Saturation in Children Who Are Connected to Mechanical Ventilation

Abstract: The bed bathing positively affected the vital signs and oxygen saturation values in intubated children connected to the mechanical ventilation. Yet, there is still a need for more research to test the effects of bed bathing on respiratory and circulatory function.
