Brief Summary

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

Objective: Diaper rash is an irritating, common skin problem in newborns and young children and occurs in the skin rubbed by wet diapers and in the armpits due to heat, moisture and irritation. This experimental study was planned to investigate the effect of olive oil use on the healing of diaper rash in infants with first-degree diaper rash undergoing treatment in an infant ward.

Methods: The study conducted between September 2020 and December 2020 included 37 infants aged 0-24 months who were treated for any reason in the Infant Clinic of a medical school and had first-degree rash. The infants in the experimental and control groups were "treated with olive oil and X brand cream" respectively. The X brand cream and the effects of olive oil and X brand cream use on the improvement of diaper rash were compared.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Olive oil

Intervention Type OTHER

The parents of the babies included in the experimental group were asked to fill in the questionnaires. The infant's skin condition was assessed using the Scale for Assessing the Severity of Uncomplicated Diaper Dermatitis in Infants. Each time the diaper was changed, the diaper area was cleaned with water and cotton wool and dried, 1-2 cc of natural extra virgin olive oil was applied, and the new diaper was fastened. At the end of each day, the diaper area was evaluated by the researcher and a nurse by using the Scale for Assessing the Severity of Uncomplicated Diaper Dermatitis in Infants.
