Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The care of the oral cavity is an important way to prevent local and systemic infections. This study aimed to: evaluate the use of video as a teaching strategy of oral hygiene for patients undergoing chemotherapy. The methodological design used was quasi-experimental before-after intervention. The sample consisted of 23 subjects who performed the technique of oral hygiene before and after watching an educational video. To do so was given a kit with a toothbrush with soft bristles, toothpaste with low abrasivity, mouthwash or product to mouthwash and dental floss for oral hygiene. For data analysis we applied the parametric test t "Student" paired.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

General Purpose Evaluating the use of video as a teaching strategy of oral hygiene for patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Specific Objectives Assess the steps taken by the subjects to oral hygiene before (initial performance) and after (final performance) exposure to an educational video on oral hygiene; To investigate the effect of an educational video on oral hygiene in this clientele; Identify patient acceptance of the teaching method employed.

Methods and Procedures Delineation The research was quasi-experimental in nature, before-after intervention (the intervention in this study was the teaching learning strategy employed used an educational video on oral hygiene.) Patients will be evaluated individually, before and after exposure to video. It is not foreseen monitoring at other times.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Educational video on oral hygiene

The patient was asked to execute the technique used daily oral hygiene that, with the sequence, movements and technical procedures for its implementation evaluated and recorded an instrument to analyze the steps of oral hygiene. Subsequently, patients watched the video prepared individually in the ward where they were interned. After this step, the patient demonstrated again the procedure for oral hygiene. At this point the researcher also observed the sequence, movements and technical procedures used to analyze the steps of oral hygiene, using the same instrument for such employee initially.

Group Type OTHER

Educational video

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The patient was asked to execute the technique used daily oral hygiene that, with the sequence, movements and technical procedures for its implementation evaluated and recorded an instrument to analyze the steps of oral hygiene. Subsequently, patients watched the video prepared individually in the ward where they were interned. After this step, the patient demonstrated again the procedure for oral hygiene. At this point the researcher also observed the sequence, movements and technical procedures used to analyze the steps of oral hygiene, using the same instrument for such employee initially.
