Development and Validation of a Mouth Assessment Tool for Orally Intubated Patients in Intensive Care Unit)
University Hospital, Bordeaux
500 participants

OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Oro-tracheal Intubation uses oro-pharyngeal lesions, impacting on the length and quality of the patient's hospital stay. There are no oral status assessment tools specifically adapted to orally intubated patients. It is therefore necessary to create a new tool for assessing the condition of the oral cavity, specific to oro-intubated patients in intensive care. The aim of the protocol is to evaluate the metrological performance of the newly-developed tool for assessing the state of the oral cavity in adult orally intubated intensive care patients.
