The thinner hydrocolloid is still used with standard protection in NBs in the NICU studied because the thicker hydrocolloid complicates the visualization of the septum, and hospital service is not able to purchase the adhesive removers due to financial factors.The analysis of the outcome of the occurrence of nasal injury had shown that the level of borderline significance found, both for the estimate of the difference in the relative frequency between the groups studied (p = 0.06), and for the relative risk (p = 0.09), maybe due to a type II error, related to the sample size.

The risk of nasal injury was twice lower using hydrocolloid protective dressing, although with a borderline significance level (OR = 2.10, 95% CI = 0.85–5.15; p = 0.09).
