OBJECTIVE To find out
relative risk factors of
nosocomial infection in order to provide the evidence for taking
measures to effectively control and reduce the
infection rate.
METHODS A retrospective
survey was carried out on 19 535 cases of hospitalized
patients during Jan and Dec of 2006.RESULTS In 2006,the
nosocomial infection patients were 389,and the
nosocomial infection rate of hospitalized
patients was 1.99%;the sections with higher
infection rates were respectively as follows ICU,department of
neurology,department of oncology,department of
nephrology and department of
pediatrics;the infected part of the body mainly occurred in
respiratory tract,
urinary tract,and
gastrointestinal tract.In the
nosocomial infection,132
strains were detected and its main pathogens were
Gram-negative bacteria(52.27%).CONCLUSIONS The effective
measures to control and prevent
nosocomial infection rates should involve rational use of
antibiotic drugs,increasing in the rate of delivering samples,shortening the period of
hospitalization,decreasing in the aggressive operations and strengthening inspections of key departments.
