Abstract:
Objective To investigate the incidence of nosocomial infection of placing peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and venous port acess(VPA) in children with leukemia. Methods 60 cases with leukemia were treated in our hospital from January 2005 to September 2009.35 cases were mail, 25 cases were femail.Their ages ranged from 2.0 to 16.5 years old.42 cases fell to the PICC group, hospital-ization for 202 times, 18 cases belonged to the VPA group, hospitalization for 109 times. The incidence of infection in hospital, infection site, common pathogens and prognosis of two groups were analyzed retro-spectively.Results The incidence of fever and increasing of C-reactive protein of the PICC group were significantly lower than those of the VPA group. There was no difference of the incidence of white blood cells decreasing between two groups. The incidence of infection in hospital in the PICC group was 38.61%, higher than 28.44% of the VPA group. Their difference was significant. There was significant difference of the distribution of infection between two groups. There was no significant difference of the major pathogens of sputum culture and blood culture between two groups. Conclusions Using venous port acess(VPA) could reduce the incidence of infection in hospital compared using peripherally insertied central catheters in children with leukemia, so venous port acess( VPA ) may be safer.
