Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Ventilator associated pneumonia. Timepoint: Before intervention and at the end of intervention. Method of measurement: In this study, pneumonia means the MCPIS score more than 5. The highest score is 10. If patients earn more than 5 point, the diagnosis of VAP is pretended.;Aspirations. Timepoint: At the intervention days, before morning and evening massage. Method of measurement: In this study, the means of aspiration is the number of oral discharge PH that measures by test tapes. It measures each day before massage. The score less than 6 represents the aspiration.;Gastric residual volume. Timepoint: in intervention days, at morning and evening, before gavage. Method of measurement: it means the volume of gastric content that measure by syring before each gavage.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Age. Timepoint: before intervention. Method of measurement: based on patient documented data.;Sex. Timepoint: before intervention. Method of measurement: according to phenotype.;History of ICU addmition. Timepoint: before intervention. Method of measurement: Patient recent hospitalization in ICU Prior to his current hospitalization.;Underlying disease. Timepoint: before intervention. Method of measurement: medical disease such as heart, renal, neurologic, gastric, and Pulmonary ecsept for COPD, ARDS, and pneumonia.;Volume of nutritional solution. Timepoint: before gavage within interventional days. Method of measurement: The nutritional solution volume that is prescribed by doctors.;Times of endotracheal suctioning. Timepoint: in each shift within interventional days. Method of measurement: The number of times that endotracheal suctioning can be performed by a nurse per shift.;The patient's level of consciousness. Timepoint: During the intervention days, each hour. Method of measurement: GCS score of the patient in accordance with standard scale of Glasgow is controlled by a nurse every hour.;Level of sedation. Timepoint: in each shift within interventional days. Method of measurement: RASS is a scale score that is measured by the nurse in each shift.;The size of the endotracheal tube. Timepoint: before intervention. Method of measurement: Internal diameter of endotracheal tube.;Endotracheal tube cuff pressure. Timepoint: in each shift within interventional days. Method of measurement: Endotracheal tube cuff pressure measured by the nurse on each shift by a manometer for measurement.
