Abstract:
Objective To investigate the risk factors for the clinical outcomes of patients with bloodstream infections in emergency in-tensive care unit(EICU)and provide a basis for clinical treatment.Methods The medical records and blood culture records of 141 patients with bloodstream infections in the EICU of our hospital from January 2019 to April 2023 were retrospectively collected.The risk factors leading to patients′death were analyzed by the Logistic regression and the relationships between these factors and patients′sur-vival time and outcomes were evaluated by the Cox regression.Results Among the 141 patients with bloodstream infections in the EICU,the mixed bloodstream infections of two or more bacteria(odds ratio[OR]=5.68,95%confidence interval[CI]:1.20-26.98,P<0.05)and bloodstream infections of multidrug-resistant bacteria(OR=6.39,95%CI:2.78-14.67,P<0.01)were significantly cor-related with the patients′death.Whether to adjust medication in a timely manner based on drug sensitivity results(hazard ratio[HR]=0.47,95%CI:0.30-0.74)and bloodstream infections of multidrug-resistant bacteria(HR=2.02,95%CI:1.28-3.20)were the risk factors leading to the death of patients with bloodstream infections in the EICU(P<0.01).Conclusion Early blood culture to identify the pathogenic bacteria and precise medication to control infection can effectively reduce the mortality of patients with bloodstream in-fections in the EICU.
