Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the characteristics and risk factors of nosocomial infection(NI) in patients with hematological malignancies(HM),and provide the bases for making the controlling measures of NI.METHODS Using the targeted monitoring to study NI in patients with HM,and recording 14 factors such as the time of hospitalization,chemotherapy,count of leukocyte and absolute neutrophil count(ANC) and so on.The data were analyzed with unifactorial ?2 test and multifactorial Logistic-regression analysis.RESULTS Among 242 patients with HM the prevalence of NI was 35.5%(86/242) and the prevalence of NI time-cases was 52.9%(128/242).Among 86 patients of NI there were 27 patients occurred multiple sites NI(31.4%).The main infection sites were upper respiratory tract,gastrointestinal tract,lower respiratory tract,oral cavity and blood.66.7% Of NI happened in the period of chemotherapy and 7 days after chemotherapy.The time of hospitalization and ANC were independent risk factors of NI in patients with HM.CONCLUSIONS The patients with HM are susceptible population of NI,and NI often occurs in the period of chemotherapy and 7 days after chemotherapy.So medical staff should strengthen monitoring,and shorten the time of patient hospitalization and of recovery of ANC to reduce the prevalence of NI efficiently.
