Analysis on the risk factors of pulmonary infection in patients with basal ganglia hemorrhage / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the risk factors of pulmonary infection in patients with basal ganglia hemorrhage . Methods A total of 152 patients with basal ganglia hemorrhage who received conservative treatment from March 2013 to Septem‐ber 2014 were enroled in the study ,while the incidence of pulmonary infections and and risk factors were retrospectively analyzed , and recorded the distribution of pathogenic bacteria .Results The pulmonary infections occured in 106 of 152 patients with the in‐fection rate of 69 .7% .The way of treatment ,history of smoke and consciousness were the independent risk factors for pulmonary infection(P<0 .05) .A total of 153 strains of pathogens were isolated from the patients of infection group ,in which there were 132 strains of gram negative bacteria ,10 strains of gram positive bacteria and 12 strains of fungi .Conclusion Basal ganglia hemorrhage associated with a greater incidence of pulmonary infection ,it should be noted the risk factors of pulmonary infection in basal ganglia hemorrhage patients to reduce the incidence of pulmonary infection .
