Research Abstract |
We analyzed gasses from exhaled and mouth air and saliva of perioperative patients of lung cancer at bedside before oral care, after oral care before operation, and after operation. Protective reflexes (cough and swallowing reflex) were also measured before and after operation. As for patients without postoperative pneumonia, oral care before operation increased ratio of salivary streptococci, usually known as healthy-associated bacteria, in anaerobic condition. Oral care also decreased total number of bacteria in saliva and decreased malodorous gasses. Acetone concentration increased after operation with rapid increase of CRP. This study suggests possibility that non-invasive measuring volatile sulfide compounds and volatile organic compounds at bedside indicate oral environments and general inflammatory conditions of perioperative lung cancer.
