dc.description.abstract | Objective : This research is aimed to observe comparison listerin and klorhexidine
0,2o/o as an oral decontamination drug to reduced oropharingeal bacteria.
Method : Double-blind randomized clinical trial in 32 patients, aged above 18 years,
Clinical Pulmonary lnfection Score (CPIS) smaller than 6, and used mechanical
ventilator with oral intubation in intensif care unit Haji Adam Malik Hospital. The
samples were divided into two groups, each composed of 16 people. One group
were patients who receive Listerin 30 ml as decontamination oral every 12 hour for
24 hours. Another group were patients who receive Khlorhexidine 0,2% 30 ml as
decontamination oral every 12 hour for 24 hours too. Oropharingeal swab was done
altet 24 hours on lateral oropharyngeal mucosa near tonsil area with stetril stick
swab, then specimen was sent to mikrobiology Laboratory to obatain antibiotik
sensitivity and bacterial culture. ls recording result of bacterial culture and antibiotic
sensitivity both of group.
Reeult : ln the klorhexidine 0,2% group there were 3 patients (18,8%) were found
positive baclerial growth and there were 1 1 patienls (68,80lo) positive culture
oropharyngeal swab results from groups that use Listerine. The results of analysis
using chi-square test shows that there are significant differences culture between
patients were using Listerin and khlorhexidine 0,2o/o. From oropharyngeal swab
culture results, patients that use Listerin would have 3,667 times risk bigger than
khlorhexidine 0,2% with 95% lK (1,255-10,713).
Conclueion : klorhexidine 0,2% is better than listerin as oral decontamination for
inhibiting of oropharyngeal growth bacteria in first 24 hours. | en_US |
