Objective:To summarize the best evidence of thirst management in ICU patients and provide evidence-based basis for dinical practice.Method:According to the "6S" evidence pyramid model, the literature on thirst management of ICU patients was systematically retrieved from relevant guidelines websites, evidence-based databases, association websites and original literature databases at home and abroad. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to June 31, 2022. Two researchers with evidence-based nursing training independently completed literature quality evaluation. To extract and summarize the evidence of the literature that meets the quality standard.Results:A total of 17 articles were included, including 8 randomized controlled trials, 5 quasi-experimental studies and 4 cross-sectional studies. The 18 pieces of best evidence were formed, including 5 aspects: basic requirements of thirst management, intervention evaluation, intervention methods, matters needing attention and health education.Conclusions:This study summarized the best evidence of thirst management in ICU patients. Nurses should translate and apply the best evidence in combination with the clinical situation and specific policies of the department to relieve the thirst symptoms of ICU patients.

Objective To apply the best evidence of airway clearance for ICU patients and promote an application of the best evidence in clinical practice to promte nuring quality.Methods The best evidence of airway clearance for ICU patients was summarised.Based on the best evidence,a system of 11 review indicators was established for clinical baseline review in combination with clinical scenario analysis and professional judgment according to the principle of operability,measurability,and understandability.On the basis of the results of review and the analysis of obstacle factors,strategies of airway clearance for ICU patients were proposed and implemented in clinical practice.Between September and December 2022,72 hospitalised patients and 30 nursing staff in the ICU of a general hospital in Wuhan were recruited in the study.Between September and October 2022,routine nursing care for airway clearances was given to the patients,and evidence-based nursing care for airway clearance was offered to the ICU patients between November and December 2022.Clinical pulmonary infection score,nursing staff's knowledge of airway clearance and implementation rate of review indicators were compared before and after the application of evidence-based nursing.Results All of the patients went through the study.After the application of evidence-based nursing practice,the clinical pulmonary infection score was decreased from(4.94±1.66)to(4.14±1.68).The score of airway clearance knowledge was increased from(49.17±9.38)points to(82.17±10.56)points.The implementation rate of the 11 indicators of evidence-based practice before the evidence-based practice was 0～80.00%,and it was significantly improved up to 96.67%～100.00%after the evidence-based practice(all P<0.05).Conclusion Implementation of evidence-based nursing practice in the airway clearance for ICU patients can reduce clinical pulmonary infections in ICU patients,improve the knowledge of nurses in cognition of airway clearance hence to improve the quality of nursing and promote the recovery of patients.
