Conditions

Moisturizers act in a ventilator like an artificial nose. Oxygen, along with the volume produced, which is a dry gas, is heated and humidified by Humidifier, and is passed to the patient's lungs. Without proper moisturizing, it can damage the lungs and increase lung parameters and even infection (Ventilator Associated Pneumonia) causing Prolonging the process of separating patients from the device..

Interventions

Intervention group: In this study, in the intervention group, active Hymo modifiers are used and in the control group, the inactive mediums are used. In the intervention group (active method), Rafail

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Pneumonia is caused by a ventilator. Clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) was used to diagnose pneumonia. In this scale, body temperature, infiltration rate in the lung graph, fever, discharge volume and Pao2 to Fio2 ratio were evaluated. This tool is a standard method for diagnosis of pneumonia. Timepoint: Within seven days. Method of measurement: Clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) was used to diagnose pneumonia. In this scale, body temperature, infiltration rate in the lung graph, fever, discharge volume and Pao2 to Fio2 ratio were evaluated. This tool is a standard method for diagnosis of pneumonia.
