Abstract：Objective To compare the preventive effect of hydrocolloid dressing and foam dressing on facial pressure sores in patients with non-invasive ventilation. Methods 〓A total of 50 patients with non-invasive ventilation were divided into the group A and group B, with 25 cases in each group. Patients in the group A were given Comfeel hydrocolloid dressing, and the patients in the group B received non-adhesive polyurethane foam dressing. The ventilation air leakage and facial pressure sore were observed. The physiological indexes including heart rate(HR), respiratory rate(RR), arterial blood two partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2), arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2), and condition of skin comfort were compared between two groups. Results 〓The ventilation air leakage and incidence of facial pressure sore were lower in the group B than those in the group A(P0.05). Patients in the group B had a better outcome in RR, HR, PaCO2, PaO2 level compared with those in the group A at 72 hrs after using non-invasive ventilation(P0.05). Conclusion 〓Compared with hydrocolloid dressing, non-adhesive polyurethane foam dressing shows better efficacy in prevention of facial pressure sores and improving the comfort degree of patients.
