Aim: to identify the most effective suctioning technique for the prevention of ventilator-
associated pneumonia. Background: ventilator-associated pneumonia is an important …

Background: Critically ill patients under mechanical ventilation require frequent suctioning of
airway secretion. Closed suction permits suctioning without disconnection from ventilator; so …

Background: Secretions contaminated with oral, nasal, and gastric bacteria accumulate in
the subglottic space, above the endotracheal tube cuff. If these secretions are aspirated into …

Objective Tracheal suctioning can cause pain and physiological indicator variations in
patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of the present study was to compare pain …

Results Of these 75 participants, 43 (57.33%) were resident doctors and 32 (42.67%) were
