Abstract

Objective To study the changes of oral flora in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis,in order to provide evidence for making oral nursing intervention and hygiene education. Methods 35 patients with diabetic ketoacidosis were named as group A,35 non-diabetic patients with chronic periodontitis (diagnostic criteria:periodontal pocket 14 mm) were named as group B,35 nonketotic patients with diabetes mellitus were named as group C,then all the patients were detected for the oral disease and the oral hygiene was evaluated. Results The gingival index,plaque index,tooth mobility,probing depth and hemorrhage after the detection of three groups had no significant differences. The detection rate of streptococcus oralis, lactobacillus,fusobacterium nucleatum,black-pigment bacteria,Capnocytophaga gingivalis,actinomycetes, escherichia coli,staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosa had no significant differences,there was a positive correlation between quantity of black-pigment bacteria, Capnocytophaga gingivalis and fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin of patients with diabetic ketoacidosis. Conclusions Diabetic ketoacidosis strengthened the bacterial invasion and oral colonization of patients. Key words: Diabetic ketoacidosis; Oral flora; Oral nursing
