Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in respiratory tract of severe neurosurgery patients after tracheotomy,and discuss the prevention and management of nosocomial infection.METHODS The data of 19 severe patients admitted in neurosurgery from Dec 2005 to Oct 2007 who underwent tracheotomy were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS Respiratory tract infection occurred in all 19 cases,the incidence rate was 100%.Eleven species and 73 strains of pathogenic bacteria were found.Thirty(41.10%)strains of P.aeruginosa were found in 12(63.16%)cases,the drug resistance rate was higher.CONCLUSIONS P.aeruginosa is the most important pathogenic bacteriaum of respiratory tract nosocomial infection in severe neurosurgery patients after tracheotomy.Strengthening the sterilization,isolation and airway management and selecting antibiotics based on drug sensitive test are the important methods to prevent and control infection.
