Oral hygiene care for critically ill patients to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia
There are many Cochrane reviews about the management of patients in intensive care units, covering a wide range of interventions, and the second update of one of these, in December 2020, brought together the latest evidence on the effects of oral hygiene care. Here ’s the lead author, Fang Hua from Wuhan University in China to tell us about the latest findings. (Source: Podcasts from The Cochrane Library)
