ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of surgical site infection(SSI)in neurosurgical patients in a tertiary first-class hospital,and provide reference for the prevention and control of SSI.Methods 47 neurological patients with SSI (49 patients developed SSI,2 were excluded from study due to the lack of appropriate control subject)from December 31 ,2011 to December 31 ,2012 were as infected group,and 94 patients without SSI (1 ∶2 matching)were as non-infected group,risk factors for SSI were analyzed retrospectively.Results There was no significant difference in general condition of two groups of patients (all P >0.05 );among 3 708 patients,49 (1 .32%)developed SSI;intracranial infection was the main type of SSI (89.80%);27 patients were performed ce-rebrospinal fluid (CSF)bacteriological detection,6 (22.22%)of whom were positive for CSF bacteriological detec-tion.Univariate conditional logistic regression analysis showed that risk factors for SSI in neurosurgical patients were operational risk assessment score (OR =2.04),frequency of preoperative antimicrobial use(OR =3.15 ),fre-quency of intraoperative antimicrobial use(OR=2.58),duration of operation(OR=2.70),surgical blood loss(OR=1 .72),indwelling drainage tube(OR=4.30),duration of indwelling drainage tube after operation(OR=2.06),and time for initial dressing change(OR=1 .66);Multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis showed that the in-dependent risk factors for SSI were frequency of preoperative antimicrobial use(P =0.03,OR =4.86),duration of operation(P =0.05,OR = 2.89 ),and time for initial dressing change after operation (P = 0.01 ,OR = 1 .92 ). Conclusion Risk factors for SSI in department of neurosurgery are multiple,duration of operation,duration of in-dwelling drainage tube after operation,and time for initial dressing change after operation are major risk factors.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the characteristics of occult damage of cerebral white matter in patients with small vessel disease by using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)technology,and its relationship with cognitive impairment.Methods Twenty-eight patients with CSVD and twenty-three matched volunteers all received T1 WI,T2 WI,DTI examination and montperllier cognitive function scale (MoCA).Then compare the difference between the two groups,and analysis the correlation between ADC and FA value of each re-gion of interested and MoCA score in CSVD group.Results ①FA values on bilateral frontal white matter in CSVD group were lower than control group,and ADC values were higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant (P 0.05 );②In CSVD group,the FA value of bilateral frontal lobe white matter were positively correlated with the MoCA score (P 0.05 ).Conclusion Bilateral frontal white matter exist fi-ber occult damage in patients with CSVD,and the change of FA and ADC value can reflect the severity of cognitive impairment on a certain degree in patients with CSVD.
