Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the national investigation, in complete bed bath of the inpatient, the pole person of thing and nursing that were easily finished knew that the patient felt dissatisfaction in sense of accomplishment not being provided, the interview investigation to a patient with the cotton towel which I steamed.
A large number of general bacterial habitation was proved by bacteriologic culture, and, with the cotton towel to reuse, the thing that was not safe became clear for materials. When I paid my attention to a disposable synthetic towel as substitute material of the cotton towel and weighed three of ten kinds experimentally, I knew that a thin nonwoven fabric type was the best. Although a cotton towel was superior to a synthetic towel in comfort by the comparison between synthetic towel and the effects of complete bed bath of the cotton towel, I demonstrated that it was approximately equal material.
