Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(02):-
OBJECTIVE To establish and apply the hospital infection information system,and study the risk factors and occurrence pattern hospital infection,to control the incidence of hospital infection.METHODS The hospital infection management software was developed by the hospital with the Hope-Bridge Technology Company of Guangzhou.RESULTS This system can joint with the hospital information system(HIS) seamlessly,as a subsystem of HIS,and be utilized in the real-time monitoring for all inpatients.It has the function of inquiry,statistics and analysis,it can monitor correctly and comprehensively on infection case,hospital environmental hygiene,usage of antibiotics and intervening operations.CONCLUSIONS The hospital infection management software is convenient and easy to operate,which can enhance the efficiency and effect of the management of hospital infection.

Objective To realize the incidence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients after receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)procedure,and to evaluate the related factors for HAI.Methods Clinical data of patients receiving ECMO from January 2003 to December 2012 were collected and analyzed retro-spectively.Results Of 43 patients receiving ECMO,15 (34.88% )developed 24 times(55.81% )of HAI. The main HAI site was lower respiratory tract(n= 12,50.00% ),followed by blood stream(n= 6,25.00% ),skin and soft tis-sue(n= 5,20.83% ).A total of 28 isolates of pathogens were detected,gram-negative bacilli were 19(67.86% )iso-lates,gram-positive cocci 7(25.00% ),and fungi 2(7.14% );pathogens were mainly isolated from specimens of sputum(n= 12,42.86% ),blood (n= 9,32.14% )and wound secretion(n= 6,21 .43% ). The incidence of postopera-tive HAI in ECMO patients was related with patients’age,duration of ECMO,complication,mechanical ventila-tion,tracheal intubation or tracheotomy,and indwelling urinary catheter.Conclusion HAI in patients receiving EC-MO is high,hospital should take corresponding prevention and control measures targeting to the related risk factors of infection,so as to reduce the incidence of HAI after the ECMO.
