Protocol summary

Study aim
The effect of oral care using Artificial saliva to control dry mouth in patients with COVID-19 under non-invasive mechanical ventilation
Design
Clinical trial with control group, parallel groups, without blinding, non-randomised, phase 3 on 80 patients.
Settings and conduct
In Labbafinejad Hospital, the sampler will be present in the intensive care unit of COVID- 19 patients. In addition to routine care, this hospital also uses artificial saliva 3 times a day. The other person will be present at Modares Hospital at the same time. In both hospitals, on the first day of patients' use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation, demographic information and the results of the initial assessment of patients' mouths will be recorded, then each patient will be examined daily for three days.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients admitted to the intensive care unit with COVID-19 (having a CT scan or positive PCR test), age over 18 years. Criteria for not entering: Patients taking salivary-lowering drugs or those with systemic glandular disease Saliva, patients with obvious oral lesions, pests.
Intervention groups
In both hospitals, on the first day of patients' use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation, demographic information and the results of the initial oral assessment of patients will be recorded, then each patient for Three days will be examined daily and the oral condition of patients in both hospitals will be evaluated. Examination and evaluation of patients's mouth, in 4 stages including (day zero: before the start of non-invasive mechanical ventilation, first day: one day after the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation until the third day (3 days after the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation) Will be done.
