Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of clean water perineum nursing in preventing urinary catheter-associated urinary tract infection.
Methods:From October 2015 to October 2016, 160 patients with indwelling urinary catheter were selected from the first affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College, ICU and neurosurgery ICU. According to the order of admission, the patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. A total of 80 patients in the experimental group received clean water perineal nursing, while 80 patients in the control group received routine perineum nursing with 0.5% iodophor. The incidence of urinary tract infection was compared between the two groups on day 3rd, 7th and14th after indwelling urethral catheter.
Results:In the control group, the incidence of urinary tract infection on day 3rd, 7th and14th was 0, 1.3%(1/80) and 5.0%(4/80), respectively. In the experimental group, the incidence of urinary tract infection on day 3, 7 and 14 was 0, 2.5% (2/80) and 3.8%(3/80). The difference was not statistically significant (χ2=0.340, 0.149, P> 0.05).
Conclusions:Using clean water perineum nursing does not increase the incidence of urinary tract infection. This method is simple, effective, and has no adverse reactions. It is worth popularizing in clinic because it can reduce the consumption of iodophor disinfectant and reduce the workload of nurses.
