Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical character and risk factor of nosocomial lower respiratory tract(infection)(NLRTI) due to Burkholderia cepacia in intensive care units(ICU) and discuss how to control infection.METHODS The clinical data of 37 cases were reviewed and analyzed,and 43 cases with non-B.cepacia NLRTI served as control group.RESULTS The difference in ICU stay time,mechanical ventilation,bronchoscopy,H_2-receptor blocker/antacid,use of antibiotics≥2 kinds and vein catheter between patients with and without B.cepacia(NLRTI) was statistically significant.CONCLUSIONS ICU stay time,mechanical ventilation,bronchoscopy,(H_2-receptor) blocker/antacid,use of antibiotics≥2 kinds and vein catheter are risk factors of B.cepacia NLRTI.Susceptibility of antibiotics to B.cepacia showed multidrug resistance to which should be paid attention in ICU,respiratory tract invasive operation limitation,medical facility sterilization and rational use of antibiotics are very important.
