ABSTRACT
Objective To verify the relationship between catheter-related urinary tract infection(CAUTI)and stress hyperglycemia during catheter retention in stroke patients. Methods We used nosocomial infection monitoring system to track the status of CAUTI in stroke patients in a hospital.The study cohort was all the patients who received retention catheterization from January 2016 to March 2020.According to the nested case-control design,multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between stress hyperglycemia and CAUTI in stroke patients with indwelling catheter. Results A total of 322 cases of CAUTI and 644 cases of non-CAUTI were enrolled in this study.The length of stay in the case group was(20.68 ± 3.73)d,significantly longer than that[(13.00 ± 4.01)d]in the control group(t=29.473,P <0.001).Compared with non-stress hyperglycemia,stress hyperglycemia posed a higher risk of CAUTI in the stroke patients with indwelling catheter(OR=2.020,95% CI=1.447-2.821,P=0.000)and led to the higher incidence of CAUTI in one thousand days(P<0.001). Conclusion Stress hyperglycemia in the stroke patients with indwelling catheter can significantly increase the risk of CAUTI.

Objective@#To explore the effect of DMAIC(Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) in reducing catheter-related urinary tract infection.@*Methods@#A retrospective case control method was used to select 578 patients admitted and treated in comprehensive ICU of Tianjin First Central Hospital from January to December 2018 with catheters as research objects.The 283 patients from January to June 2018 were the control group, and 295 patients from July to December 2018 were the observation group.Routine methods were used in the control group, and DMAIC method with 6 sigma management was used in the observation group. The correct rate of implementation of each measure, the utilization rate of urinary catheter and the infection rate between the two groups were compared.@*Results@#Implementation rate of early extubation assessment, urine collection accuracy, urine tube fixed correctly, urine tube cleaning time, urine collection bags location accuracy were 60.42%(171/283), 69.61%(197/283), 79.86%(226/283), 89.40%(253/283), 92.58%(262/283)in the control group, 80.34%(237/295), 90.85%(268/295), 94.92%(280/295), 96.27%(284/295), 97.97%(289/295) in the observation group, the differences were statistically significant (χ2= 9.411-41.415, P < 0.01). The rate of urinary catheter usage was 75.31%(3 856/5 120) in the observation group and 82.60%(4 098/4 961) in the control group, the differences was statistically significant (χ2=80.475, P < 0.01). The rate of catheter associated urinary tract infection was 0.26‰ (1/3 856) in the observation group and 1.95 ‰ (8/4 098) in the control group, the differences was statistically significant (χ2=5.832, P< 0.05).@*Conclusions@#DMAIC can improve the accuracy of nursing measures, optimize the catheter care process, and reduce catheter-related urinary tract infections.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To observe the effect of clean water perineum nursing in preventing urinary catheter-associated urinary tract infection.@*Methods@#From October 2015 to October 2016, 160 patients with indwelling urinary catheter were selected from the first affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College, ICU and neurosurgery ICU. According to the order of admission, the patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. A total of 80 patients in the experimental group received clean water perineal nursing, while 80 patients in the control group received routine perineum nursing with 0.5% iodophor. The incidence of urinary tract infection was compared between the two groups on day 3rd, 7th and14th after indwelling urethral catheter.@*Results@#In the control group, the incidence of urinary tract infection on day 3rd, 7th and14th was 0, 1.3%(1/80) and 5.0%(4/80), respectively. In the experimental group, the incidence of urinary tract infection on day 3, 7 and 14 was 0, 2.5% (2/80) and 3.8%(3/80). The difference was not statistically significant (χ2=0.340, 0.149, P> 0.05).@*Conclusions@#Using clean water perineum nursing does not increase the incidence of urinary tract infection. This method is simple, effective, and has no adverse reactions. It is worth popularizing in clinic because it can reduce the consumption of iodophor disinfectant and reduce the workload of nurses.

ABSTRACT
Hospital acquired infection (HAI) is one of the common complications of hospitalized patients and poses a serious threat to public health worldwide, which causes an exacerbation, prolonged hospitalization and increased medical costs. Because of higher illness severity and more invasive operations, patients in neurosurgical intensive critical unit (NICU) are more susceptible to HAI such as hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) and surgical site infection (SSI), leading to theincrease of mortality. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of HAI is an important challenge during the treatment of diseases in NICU. In this paper, we summarized the common types, pathogenic characteristics, prevention measures and antimicrobial treatment of HAI in NICU, aiming to provide ideas and reference on HAI treatment for medical personnel in NICU.
