ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors of hospital infection among parturients to put forward prevention measures.METHODS The infection cases among parturients in our hospital 2005-2007 were analyzed by retrospective survey.RESULTS The first three infections sites were upper respiratory tract(29.79%);surgical incision(28.72%) and urinary tract(21.28%).The main factor for upper respiratory tract infetion was the traditional postnatal recovering modality.Surgical incision infections were mainly perineum ones.Catheterization after the caesarean operation led to urinary tract infection.CONCLUSIONS Postnatal recovery by scientific modality,aseptic operation and strict infection management are the keys to preventing obstetrical infections.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To analyze the incidence and related factors of the nosocomial infection in our hospital during a 3-year period.METHODS By using the retrospective method,all inpatient cases in our hospital from 2004 through 2006 were surveyed and analyzed.RESULTS Totally 44 759 inpatient cases were involved in the period,and 1653 cases with nosocomial infection occurred.The infection rate was 3.69%.The major sites of the infection were lower respiratory tract(45.12%),upper respiratory tract(19.12%)and urinary tract(13.77%).The most common pathogens were Klebsiella pneumonial(13.01%),Escherichia coli(11.53%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(10.39%),and Acinetobacter baumannii(9.13%) in Gram-negative bacteria,and Staphylococcus aureus(5.02%) and S.epidermidis(3.42%) in Gram-positives.Candida albicans(21.8%) was the major isolate in Fungi.The infection rate in ICU was 20% higher than in other departments per year during 3 years.CONCLUSIONS Strengthening the medical knowledge of about nosocomial infection among employees,improving the environment quality of hospital,identifying pathogens correctly and surveying the resistance of antibiotic agents should be noted to control nosocomial infection.
