Abstract:
Objective To analyze the prevalence of hospital acquired infection and the associated risk factors.Methods Nine hundred and three hospitalized preterm infants in our neonatal intensive care unit from August 2006 to October 2010 were retrospectively studied.Risk factors of hospital acquired infection were analyzed by single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis method.Site and pathogen of infection were also analyzed.Results One hundred and ten preterm infants developed 123 times of hospital acquired infection.The incidence of hospital acquired infection was 12.2％,and hospital acquired infection patient-day rates was 7.3‰.The mortality was 2.7％.Gestational age less than 32 weeks,birth weight less than 1500 gram,non-invasive ventilation,tracheal intubation,umbilical vein catheter(UVC),peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC),parenteral nutrition were the risk factors of hospital acquired infection.Logistic regression analysis showed mechanical ventilation,UVC and PICC were the main risk factors.The main sites of infection were sepsis(45.5％),low respiratory infection and conjunctivitis.Seventy positive culture samples were obtained.Bacteria were the main pathogen.Fifty percent was gram-staining positive,while 46％ was gram-staining negative.Conclusion It is very important to identify the high risk factors for hospital acquired infection.Standardized management of preterm infants,standardized usage of umbilical vein catheter and peripherally inserted central catheter,minimized usage of intubation would be conductive to reduce the incidence of hospital acquired infection.
