Brief Summary

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

The research is a descriptive study designed to evaluate the oral health status of hospitalized children in pediatric intensive care units. The research was conducted between June 2021 and September 2021 in pediatric intensive care units in Izmir province. The patients were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method in the selection of the sample (n=88). Patient Identification Information Form and Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) were used for oral health assessment of patients. It was taken written consents from the hospitals where the research was carried out and from the relatives of the patients
