| Summary: | 碩士 === 臺北醫學大學 === 護理學研究所 === 98 === The purpose of this experimental design study was to determine the efficacy of two different oral care protocols in the prophylaxis of mucositis in Non-small cell lung cancer patients with receiving chemotherapy.61 patients were randomly assigned to a treatment or control group .All patient received standard protocol of oral care differed in the type of rinse solution.The treatment group used 0.8 ％ propolis .The control group rinsed with disteal water.
The World Healthy Organization mucositis grading system and oral assessment guide were used to assess oral status every day during hospitalization and 7~10 days after chemotherapy.A statistically difference was not found between WHO scales、oral candidiasis. and Oral Assessment Guide 「voice」「Swallow」category .However the mucositis severity score,Oral Assessment Guide score and functional indicator 「lips」「tongue」「saliva」were significant lower(P < .05) .Plaque reduce through oral care protocol in both groups .
The propolis seemed to be superior to disteal water for preventing chemotherapy–induced oral mucositis .
