ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the current status of healthcare-associated infection (HAI)and antimicrobial use in a children’s hospital.Methods Prevalence rates of HAI and antimicrobial use among hospitalized patients at 0∶00—24∶00 of May 1 ,2014 were investigated by combination of bedside visiting and medical record reviewing. Results A total of 1 027 patients were investigated,8 patients developed 10 times of infection,prevalence rate of HAI was 0.78%,prevalence case rate was 0.97%.HAI mainly occurred in patients in blood center (n =4),the main infection site was respiratory tract(upper respiratory tract,n=2;lower respiratory tract,n=2),antimicrobial usage rate was 62.12%.Antimicrobial usage rate,purpose of antimicrobial use,and combination use of antimicro-bial agents among different departments were all significantly different(all P 95%), two-drug combination rate in neonatal center accounted for 48.28%,three-drug combination rate in blood center ac-counted for 30.30%.Conclusion Routine surveillance on departments and sites of high HAI incidence should be in-tensified in children’s hospitals,training on knowledge of HAI among health care workers should be strengthened, and antimicrobial should be used rationally.
