Patienten, die ihre Z\u00e4hne regelm\u00e4\u00dfig putzen, haben ein geringeres Risiko einer im Krankenhaus erworbenen Lungenentz\u00fcndung und eine geringere Sterblichkeitsrate auf der Intensivstation (ICU), wie eine neue Studie ergab.<\/p>\n

Im Krankenhaus erworbene Lungenentz\u00fcndung (HAP<\/a>) tritt auf, wenn die Lungenentz\u00fcndung verursachenden Bakterien im Mund in die Atemwege eines Patienten gelangen und dessen Lunge infizieren. Patienten, die bei der Aufnahme keine Anzeichen einer Lungenentz\u00fcndung aufweisen, entwickeln die Erkrankung innerhalb von 48 Stunden oder l\u00e4nger.<\/p>\n

Menschen mit geschw\u00e4chtem Immunsystem sind besonders anf\u00e4llig f\u00fcr die Entwicklung einer im Krankenhaus erworbenen Lungenentz\u00fcndung w\u00e4hrend ihres Aufenthalts. Es handelt sich um die h\u00e4ufigste und krankhafteste im Gesundheitswesen auftretende Infektion. Etwa einer von hundert Patienten im Krankenhaus erkrankt an der Infektion.<\/p>\n

Basierend auf den Erkenntnissen ver\u00f6ffentlicht<\/a> Im Jama Network empfehlen Forscher Patienten, ihre Z\u00e4hne mindestens zweimal t\u00e4glich zu putzen, um einer im Krankenhaus erworbenen Lungenentz\u00fcndung vorzubeugen.<\/p>\n

Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Inzidenz von im Krankenhaus erworbenen Lungenentz\u00fcndungen bei denjenigen, die t\u00e4glich ihre Z\u00e4hne putzten, deutlich geringer war und um etwa ein Drittel sank.<\/p>\n
