Abstract:

 Objectives: Incontinent individuals continue to face a major health concern known as Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis IAD. After a stroke or other neurological condition, the chance of developing IAD increases. Prevention of IAD is critical for maintaining skin integrity. The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of two different care products used in the prevention of IAD. Material and Methods: An experimental study was conducted. Incontinent patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: intervention experimental group received perineal treatment with dimethicone pomade impregnated wipes, n66 or control control group received perineal care with soapy water, n66. The rate of IAD was determined. Results: During the 10-day follow-up period, 31.8 of the experimental groups patients acquired IAD, whereas 40.9 of the control groups patients got IAD. However, no significant change was observed. IAD was predominantly seen to grow on the curve between the genitals and the thigh in the experimental group 15.2, whereas labiascrotum was observed to develop in the control group 27.3. According to the IAD development, there was a substantial difference in the number of semi-formed and liquid stools. Conclusion: There was no statistical difference between the two different care products in the prevention of IAD. However, it is important to study the continuation of nursing care. It may be recommended to repeat the study in clinics where incontinence is common, with a longer follow-up.

 Amaç: İnkontinansla ilişkili dermatit İİD inkontinansı olan hastalarda ciddi bir sağlık sorunu olmaya devam etmektedir. İnme veya diğer nörolojik hastalıklardan sonra İİD gelişme riski artmaktadır. İİDnin önlenmesi, cilt bütünlüğünün kontrolünü sağlama da oldukça önemlidir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, İİDnin önlenmesinde kullanılan iki farklı bakım ürününün etkinliğini incelemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Deneysel tasarımda planlanan bu çalışmada; inkontinansı olan hastalar deney grubu dimetikon pomad emdirilmiş mendil ile perineal bakım yapılan grup, n66 ve kontrol grubuna rutin olarak uygulanan sabunlu su ile perineal bakım yapılan grup, n66 rastgele ayrıldı. İİD oranı değerlendirildi. Bu gruplara ait veriler karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Hastalar 10 gün takip edildi. Deney grubundaki hastaların 31,8inde, kontrol grubundaki hastaların 40,9unda İİD geliştiği görüldü. Ancak, anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmedi. Deney grubunda en çok genital bölge ile uyluk arasındaki çizgide 15,2, kontrol grubunda labiaskrotumda 27,3 İİD geliştiği gözlendi. Sıvı ve yarı şekilli dışkılama sayısı arttıkça İİD gelişiminde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık saptandı. Sonuç: İİDnin önlenmesinde iki farklı bakım ürünü arasında istatistiksel olarak fark saptanmadı. Ancak hemşirelik bakımının sürdürülmesi adına bu çalışma önemlidir. Araştırmanın daha uzun süreli izlenerek inkontinansın sık görüldüğü kliniklerde tekrarlanması önerilebilir.
