ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevention from hospital infection and therapy in fracture patients.METHODS We analyzed the situation of hospital infection in the fracture patients ranged from 2000 to 2005 with reviewing and perspective statistical method.RESULTS Totally 43 cases were infected from 1345 fracture patients,taken 3.2%.It was the highest with infection rate under the age of 5(6.0%),then was successively at the 15-44 years old age,5-14 years old age,≥60 and 45-59 years old age.CONCLUSIONS The fracture patients or those experiencing surgical operation are easy to have hospital infection.It is a multifactorial result.For instance,the environment of ward,the disinfection measure in operation,the skilled degree of surgical operators,the length of operation time,rational selection antibiotics and so on,are all the important factors to prevent and cure hospital infection.Pay attention to the quality controlling every link,can reduce the rate of hospital infection among fracture patients.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of vacuum-assisted closure in clinical persistent infection patients.METHODS Thirty two sufferers infected in soft tissue,bones and joints were treated by general methods but without durable concrescence.It lasted averagely 138 days.In our department it treated by vacuum-assisted closure in 23 days.Thereby a comparison of self-control came into being.RESULTS Thirty two cases were cured after following at least one year except for one case with recrudescence.CONCLUSIONS Vaccum-assisted closure is the most effective surgery therapy measurement and is a kind of unidirectional drainage.If we can use it felicitously then we can treat infection in orthopedics′ effectively.
