Abstract:
Elderly patients with COVID-19 are at high risk of nosocomial infection due to the factors such as advanced age, frequent invasive operations, extensive use of antimicrobial agents, and lower compliance of medical staff to implement hospital infection control measures during epidemic prevention and control. During the COVID-19 epidemic, on the basis of actively treating patients, we should pay attention to the prevention and control of nosocomial infection in elderly patients, and strictly prevent and control the aggregation and outbreak of nosocomial infection.
