Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
To blind the present study, a sample of mouthwash used in three types of "Colistin and Chlorhexidine", "Tobramycin and Chlorhexidine" and "Chlorhexidine alone" was prepared by a pharmacist. These solutions will be prepared similarly in volume, shape, and smell and will be coded with labels A, B and C. Then these solutions will be given daily to a nurse who is completely unaware of the type of mouthwash. In addition, the partner specialist as well as the Laboratory Analyzer will not be aware of how randomization is performed.
