Oral health plays a pivotal role in the overall well-being of patients. This article delves into the intricate interplay between oral health and systemic health outcomes in various patient populations, including those undergoing parenteral nutrition in childhood, individuals with impaired swallowing function, and those reliant on long-term enteral or parenteral nutrition. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, the multifaceted role of oral health maintenance in optimizing nutritional therapy outcomes and enhancing overall quality of life is explored. Alternative forms of nutrition have a profound impact on Oral microbiota, which in turn is reflected in general health and wellbeing. Despite its significance, the importance of systematic oral health assessments and nurse involvement in providing holistic care to patients with complex medical needs has been underestimated. By elucidating critical connections between oral health and systemic health outcomes, this article aims to underscore the significance of oral health in comprehensive patient care and stimulate further research to advance our understanding of this crucial aspect of healthcare management.
口腔健康对患者的整体健康起着关键作用。本文深入探讨了口腔健康与各种患者群体的系统健康结果之间的复杂相互作用，包括儿童期接受肠外营养、吞咽功能受损以及长期依赖肠内或肠外营养的患者。通过对现有文献的综合回顾，探讨了口腔健康维护在优化营养治疗结果和提高整体生活质量方面的多方面作用。替代形式的营养对口腔微生物群有深远的影响，而口腔微生物群又反映在整体健康和幸福感上。尽管其意义重大，但系统的口腔健康评估和护士在为有复杂医疗需求的患者提供整体护理方面的参与度被低估了。本文通过阐明口腔健康与系统健康结果之间的关键联系，旨在强调口腔健康在全面患者护理中的重要性，并激发进一步的研究，以增进我们对医疗保健管理这一重要方面的理解。
