Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
Conditions
Brief summary
the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Nursing care Bundle on Oral Intake among Critically Ill Children with Post-Extubation Dysphagia
Detailed description
The researchers explained the study's aim, benefits, and procedures for participation, after that the parents of the children provided an informed consent. children's baseline data was collected from their records prior to intervention in order to identify children who meet the required criteria of the study. then the participants were selected and divided randomly (using a simple random method) into two equal groups. One subject for the control group, one for the study group, and so on, distributed the participants into two equivalent groups as fellow: Control Group: Consisted of 30 children who will receive conventional hospital care with no additional interventions. Study Group: Consisted of 30 children who will receive a nursing care bundle on oral intake starting the day after their successful extubation and extend for 14th days. Additionally, the participants were provided with a brief education on safe swallowing.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline of oral health post-extubation on Post-Extubation Oral Assessment Scale | The first measurement time will be From extubation of mechanical ventilation up to 1 week7 th day's post-extubation. The second time will be from extubation up to 2 week14th day's post-extubation | It consisted of eight categories including Voice, ability to swallow, lips, saliva, tongue, mucous membranes, gingiva and teeth. scoring of each component 0 score indicates (normal) , 1 score indicates (mild abnormality) and 2 scores indicate (sever abnormality). Total score (0-3) indicates minimal risk of post-extubation complications ,4-6 indicates moderate risk of complications and 7-10 indicates high risk of post-extubation complications. |
| change from the baseline in swallowing on Pediatric Dysphagia Screening Questionnaire (PDSQ) | The first measurement time will be From extubation of mechanical ventilation up to 1 week7 th day's post-extubation. The second time will be from extubation up to 2 week14th day's post-extubation | it designed to identify children at risk for oropharyngeal dysphagia. scoring of each component 0 score indicates (no difficultly) ,1 score indicates (mild difficulty)2 scores (moderate difficulty) and 3 score indicates (severe difficulty). Total score (0-5) indicates minimal or to no dysphagia risk ,6-10 indicates to some dysphagia risk, 11-15 indicates high dysphagia risk and 16-18 indicates Severe dysphagia risk. |
| change from baseline of normal oral intake of the children on the Pediatric Functional Oral Intake Scale (P-FOIS) | The first measurement time will be From extubation of mechanical ventilation up to 1 week7 th day's post-extubation. The second time will be from extubation up to 2 week14th day's post-extubation | it includes a 6-point scale used to assess a child's oral intake ability. It categorizes intake into seven levels, ranging from complete dependence on non-oral feeding to successful oral intake. |
