ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of wound protector on preventing incisional wound infection following class Ⅲ-Ⅳincision abdominal operation.Methods Patients who had undergone class Ⅲ-Ⅳincision abdominal opera-tion from January 2013 to December 2014 were divided into trial group and control group according to whether they had used wound protector ,incidence of postoperative incisional wound infection between two groups were com-pared.Results A total of 310 patients were monitored,150 cases in trial group,and 160 cases in control group. Incidence of incisional wound infection in trial group was significantly lower than control group (4.00% [n=6]vs 11 .88%[n=19],χ2 =6.48,P <0.05).The average operation time and length of hospital stay in trial group were both shorter than control group ([42.10±3.30]min vs [58.30±4.10]min,P <0.05;[7.00±2.20]d vs [10.00 ±3.50]d ,P <0.05),score of pain assessment of incision in trial group was lower than control group([2.00 ± 1 .70]vs [3.00±1 .80],P <0.05).Conclusion Wound protector can effectively reduce the incidence of incisional wound infection following class Ⅲ-Ⅳincision abdominal operation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the possible causes of surgical site infection(SSI)in neurosurgical patients in a hospital during a short period of time.Methods Medical data of 135 neurosurgical operative patients from February 1 to March 15,2013 were reviewed,the possible risk factors for SSI were analyzed retrospectively with case-control study.Results Of 135 operative neurosurgical patients,5 (3.70%)developed SSI.Case-control study showed that the ratio of the run of the fifth operating room and undergoing of secondary operation was 4.07 (95%CI :0.52 -36.65)and 18.00(95%CI :2.00 -180.00)respectively.The difference between each surgeon special SSI rate and the average SSI rate in 2012 (2.54%[17/669])was not significantly different (P >0.05).Bacterial detection of en-vironmental specimens of the fifth operating room showed that except anesthetic cuff exceeded standard,the others were met the national requirements,and the isolated bacteria from anesthetic cuff was coagulase negative Staphylo-coccus ,which was not related with pathogens in infection.Conclusion “The secondary surgery”is the key risk fac-tor for SSI of neurosurgical patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the qualified rate of midwives’surgical hand disinfection and perineal in-cisional infection in parturients,so as to provide reference for reducing perineal incisional infection.Methods Data of 7 148 women who delivered naturally in an obstetrics department between January 2012 and December 2013 were collected,3 569 midwives who weren’t intervened in surgical hand disinfection between January and December 2012 were as control group,and 3 579 midwives who were intervened between January and December 2013 were as intervention group,the perineal incisional infection rate of parturients and qualified rate of midwives’hand hygiene of two groups were compared.Results There were no significant difference in maternal age,body mass index,un-derlying diseases,No.of vaginal delivery examination,delivery season,delivery lasting time,incision suture tech-nique,antimicrobial prophylaxis,and neonatal weight between intervention group and control group (all P>0.05). The qualified rate of midwives’surgical hand disinfection method increased from 19.31%(n=689)before interven-tion to 71.03%(n=2 542)after intervention,the difference was significant between two groups(χ2=752.58,P<0.05).Perineal incisional infection rate in intervention group was significantly lower than control group ([(0.28%, 10/3 579]vs [0.81%,29/3 569]),there was significant difference between two groups (χ2=9.36,P<0.05). Conclusion The improvement of qualified rate of midwives’hand hygiene can reduce perineal incisional infection rate of parturients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the risk factors for surgical site infections (SSIs)in patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.Methods Sixty patients who received hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery and suffered SSIs from January 2006 to January 2010 were selected as infections group,119 patients who also received hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery but didn’t develop infection were as control group,retrospective investigation was per-formed.Results Univariate analysis revealed the associated factors for post-operative SSIs were age,history of car-diocerebrovascular disease,history of abdominal surgery,history of smoking,preoperative anemia,abnormal pre-operative coagulation and blood sugar,pre-operative infection,use of laparoscope,incision type,duration of opera-tion,ASA score,post-operative drainage and dressing chang within 24 hours of post-operation(all P<0.05).Mult-ivariate analysis revealed that abdominal surgery history (OR95%CI:3.09 [1.21 -7.91 ]),high NISS score (OR95%CI:6.18[2.41-15.85])were risk factors of SSIs in patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, and dressing chang within 48 hours of post-surgery were protective factor (OR95%CI:3.81 [1.56-9.34]). Conclusion History of abdominal surgery and high score of NISS are major risk factors for SSIs in patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.To reduce the risk of SSIs,blood glucose should be actively adj usted,anemia and coagulation abnormalities should be treated;duration of operation should be shortened as far as possible,wound should be kept clean and dressing should be changed timely after surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the investigation and control method for the epidemic of surgical site infection (SSI)in a hospital.Methods Data of orthopedics patients receiving clean wound orthopedics operation were ana-lyzed retrospectively,and effective measures were taken to control the epidemic of HAI.Results From June to August 2012,a total of 312 patients received clean wound orthopedics operation,7 (2.24%)SSI cases occurred.SSI rates during the same period from 2009 to 2012 were significantly different(P <0.05),and was the highest in 2012. HAI management staff reviewed patients’medical records,communicated with staff in orthopedics department,and put forward advice for SSI control;orthopedics department worked out and implemented detailed infection control measures.The subsequent surveillance showed that the prevalence of SSI in orthopedics ward decreased to 0.38%, infection outbreak was effectively controlled.Conclusion HAI management department played an important role in the finding and control of HAI outbreak.Scientific analysis on monitored data and proper measures adopted by HAI management department and clinical department can effectively control HAI outbreak.
