Efficacy of A Novel RinSe Device to Reduce Oral Bacteria in Intubated IntEnsive CaRe Patients: a Pilot Study

Brief Summary

We propose a randomized pilot/feasibility study comparing oral care treatment as usual (TAU) with Swiftsure SwishKit plus oral care TAU on the presence and magnitude of bacterial load in the oropharyngeal space in orotracheally intubated patients. The trial will be conducted with IRB approval and written consent from patient or its legal representative.
