Abstract:
Objective To explore the risk factors,the distribution of etiology and drug resistance status of patients with early infection (3 months) after liver transplantation,and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods The clinical data of 112 recipients from February 2014 to December 2015 were collected,and logistic regression analysis was performed on the risk factors of early postoperative infection in liver transplant patients.The independent risk factors of infection after liver transplantation were screened out.At the same time,the results of pathogen culture and drug sensitivity test were statistically described.Results The independent risk factors for infection at 3th month after liver transplantation included the operative time ≥600 min [P =0.003,odds ratio (OR) =9.996,95 % confidence interval (95 % CI),2.221-44.981],intensive care unit (ICU) ≥6 days (P =0.010,OR =6.306,95% CI =1.563-25.437),Child-Pugh grade of C (P =0.023,OR =6.298,95% CI =1.294-30.659).Of the 112 liver transplant recipients,59 had an infection (52.68%),and 168 stains of pathogens were isolated.The positive rate of the specimens was highest in sputum,followed by bile,ascites,drainage and catheter end,blood,deep vein catheter,middle urinary,pleural effusion and peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC).The detectable rate of gram-negative bacteria,gram-positive bacteria,fungi and viruses was 46.43% (78 strains),29.76% (50 strains),18.45% (31 strains),and 5.36% (9 strains) respectively.Infection occurred mainly within 1 month after surgery,accounting for about 80.36% (135 strains),especially at 1st week after surgery,accounting for about 34.52% (58 strains).Gram-positive bacteria had a higher drug resistance rate,including penicillins,macrolides,aminoglycosides,quinolones,linamides,etc.especially in the highest rate of Enterococcus faeciurr.Gram-negative bacteria were individualized based on the different strains of the bacteria,and they were relatively low in the resistance of the carbapene.Conclusion Infection is one of the most common complications after liver transplantation.To reduce the incidence of infection after liver transplantation,efforts should be made to shorten the duration of operation and ICU stay time,improve the basic nutritional status of recipients,and enhance monitoring of the recipient's infection after liver transplantation,to further increase the survival rate of postoperative liver transplantation recipients and improve the quality of life.
