Brief Summary:
The present study was planned to compare the effect of products, used in the fixation of nasogastric tube, on skin integrity of 4-6 weeks infants hospitalized at neonatal and infant units. The hypothesis of the study is "Water-based barrier tape is more effective to protect skin integrity than hydrocolloid barrier tape."
Detailed Description:
The study was planned as randomized controlled and experimental design to compare the efficiency of three different methods protecting skin deficiencies using adhesive products for 4-6 weeks infants. The universe of the study consisted of 4-6 weeks infants in neonatal and infants clinics of Giresun Women's and Children's Hospital between the dates of October 2020-2021. Power analysis was performed through G\*Power (v3.1.7) programme in order to determine the number of the sample. At the beginning of the study, a pilot study was carried out with 15 participants from each of the groups and the effect size was calculated as d=0.672 regarding the assessment of skin condition scores and 108 participants in total should be included in the study as 36 participants for each groups in order to obtain 80% power in the level of α=0.05. Block randomization technique is applied in the study as a randomization method. "As for data collection "Infant desciption form" and "Neonatal Skin Condition Score Scale" is used. The scale is filled by two independent observer via double-blind method.
