The Influence of Oral Health on Comprehensive Health Outcomes in Critically Ill Patients

The study found a significant association between poor OHS and adverse outcomes. Other factors in critically ill patients, such as the weekly application of chlorohexidine gluconate mouthwash and SOFA, significantly influenced this independent variable, which had a high propensity risk of 180.965. The optimal threshold for a weekly chlorhexidine mouthwash application was 15.5 times per week.

Abstract

The study found a significant association between poor OHS and adverse outcomes. Other factors in critically ill patients, such as the weekly application of chlorohexidine gluconate mouthwash and SOFA, significantly influenced this independent variable, which had a high propensity risk of 180.965. The optimal threshold for a weekly chlorhexidine mouthwash application was 15.5 times per week.
