RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the infection status and changing trend of hepatitis C virus(HCV)infection in hospitalized patients in medical institutions,and provide reference for formulating HCV infection prevention and control strategies.Methods HCV infection surveillance results from cross-sectional survey data reported to China Healthcare-associated Infection(HAI)Surveillance System in 2020 were summarized and analyzed,HCV positive was serum anti-HCV positive or HCV RNA positive,survey result was compared with the survey results from 2003.Results In 2020,1 071 368 inpatients in 1 573 hospitals were surveyed,738 535 of whom underwent HCV test,4 014 patients were infected with HCV,with a detection rate of 68.93％and a HCV positive rate of 0.54％.The positive rate of HCV in male and female patients were 0.60％and 0.48％,respectively,with a statistically sig-nificant difference(x2=47.18,P＜0.001).The HCV positive rate in the 50-＜60 age group was the highest(0.76％),followed by the 40-＜50 age group(0.71％).Difference among all age groups was statistically signifi-cant(x2=696.74,P＜0.001).In 2003,91 113 inpatients were surveyed.35 145 of whom underwent HCV test,resulting in a detection rate of 38.57％;775 patients were infected with HCV,with a positive rate of 2.21％.In 2020,HCV positive rates in hospitals of different scales were 0.46％-0.63％,with the highest in hospital with bed numbers ranging 600-899.Patients'HCV positive rates in hospitals of different scales was statistically signifi-cant(X2=35.34,P＜0.001).In 2020,12 provinces/municipalities had over 10 000 patients underwent HCV-rela-ted test,and HCV positive rates ranged 0.19％-0.81％,with the highest rate from Hainan Province.HCV posi-tive rates in different departments were 0.06％-0.82％,with the lowest positive rate in the department of pedia-trics and the highest in the department of internal medicine.In 2003 and 2020,HCV positive rates in the depart-ment of infectious diseases were the highest,being 7.95％and 3.48％,respectively.Followed by departments of orthopedics(7.72％),gastroenterology(3.77％),nephrology(3.57％)and general intensive care unit(ICU,3.10％)in 2003,as well as departments of gastroenterology(1.35％),nephrology(1.18％),endocrinology(0.91％),and general intensive care unit(ICU,0.79％)in 2020.Conclusion Compared with 2003,HCV positive rate decreased significantly in 2020.HCV infected patients were mainly from the department of infectious diseases,followed by departments of gastroenterology,nephrology and general ICU.HCV infection positive rate varies with gender,age,and region.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the infection distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in patients with severe liver disease,and provide reference for clinical medication.Methods Retrospective analysis of the microbiological specimens from patients with severe liver disease in Department of Infection of our hospital from August 2014 to November 2016 and the drug susceptibility testing were carried out by means of K-B disc diffusion method after bacterial culturing,and the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens were analyzed.Results Totally 17 of 73 patients with severe liver disease developed hospital infection (23.3％).104 strains of bacteria were isolated and 78 strains out of them were multidrug-resistant bacteria (75.0％).Among them,28(26.9％) strains were gram-positive coccus,mainly consisting of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis,and 58(55.8％) were gram-negative coccus,mainly composed of Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumonia and Acinetobacter baumannii,and 18(17.3％) strains fungi.S.aureus and enterococci were resistant to penicillin,erythromycin and levofloxacin,the resistance rates were above 80.0％,but had low resistance rates to vancomycin,teicoplanin and tigecycline.The resistance rates of E.coli and K.pneumoniae to piperacillin,cefazolin and cefuroxime sodium were above 85.0％,but they had lower resistance rates to tigecycline and amikacin.Acinetobacter baumannii was 100％ resistant to piperacillin and tazobactam,ceftazidime,imipenem and amikacin,but had low resistance to tigecycline and minocycline.Conclusions Multi-drug resistant bacteria are the main bacterial pathogens in patients with severe liver disease and have a high resistance rate to commonly used antibiotics,empirical treatment in the population at high risk of multidrug-resistant bacteria infections requires the use of broad-spectrum or high-grade antibiotics (e.g.carbapenems or tigecycline) and drugs against specific pathogenic bacteria (glycopeptides,linezolid,and amikacin etc).Early de-escalation policies are recommended to prevent the spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria in cirrhosis.
