Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to see how well special skin care and a hydrocolloid dressing can prevent injuries caused by nasogastric (NG) tubes in patients.
- 102 patients were tested in three groups: one with hydrocolloid dressing, one with skin care, and a control group with no treatment.
- The results showed that none of the patients with the hydrocolloid dressing got injuries, while a lot in the other groups did, proving the dressing is more effective than just skin care.
