ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the related factors of infection post ventricle-peritoneal shunt and explore some preventive mea-sures. Methods 85 cases after ventricle-peritoneal shunt for normal pressure cranial hydrocephalus were analysed retrospectively. The effect of intensive prevention was observed. Results The overall infection rate was 7%after ventricle-peritoneal shunt. There was significant dif-ference between the patients with or without infection post-operation in some factors, such as preoperative infection (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, intracranial infection, biliary infection);the operator;activities of daily living. It was 9.8%(6/61) under routine aseptic opera-tion, and was 0 (0/24) under intensive management. Conclusion Infection after ventricle-peritoneal shunt is associated with many factors, es-pecially the susceptibility and contact to infection. Intensive management can significantly prevent the infection.
