Objective To investigate the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)management in secondary and above medical institutions in Shaanxi Province,analyze development trend,and put forward sugges-tions for improvement.Methods In May-June,2016,170 secondary and above hospitals in 10 cities were selected for surveying through stratified random sampling method.Survey content included basic situation of hospitals,HAI management,HAI monitoring,and so on.Results Available questionnaires were obtained from 165 hospitals (43 tertiary hospitals,and 122 secondary hospitals).Of 165 hospitals,more than 90% have established HAI manage-ment organizations and regulations,but hospital risk management should be paid more attention,only 63.03% of hospitals perfected the risk management system and 66.06% conducted risk assessment.99.09% of hospitals im-plement training on HAI to all staff regularly and 88.41% conducted effective feedback.In the aspect of staff alloca-tion,88.48% of the hospitals assigned enough professionals for HAI management,but only 34.55% have specific training programme for these personnel.Only 33.94% of hospitals have special funds for HAI control;in the aspect of monitoring on HAI,21.21% of hospital installed and used HAI monitoring software;In the aspect of implemen-tation of monitoring programme,about 90% of hospitals developed monitoring on HAI cases and environmental hy-giene,but only 34.55% and 23.64% of hospitals conducted targeted monitoring on intensive care unit and neonatal intensive care unit respectively.Conclusion Organizational structure of HAI management in Shaanxi Province is perfect,relevant rules and regulations are basically established,basic monitoring projects are universal,but the awareness of risk management needs to be strengthened,professional allocation and professional quality develop-ment are both imbalance,informational monitoring is inadequate.

Objective To understand the cognition about healthcare-associated infection(HAI) management among directors in secondary and above hospitals in Shaanxi Province.Methods Questionnaire survey was adopted to investigate hospital directors who participated in The third session of Shaanxi Provincial HAI management training course for hospital directors.Results A total of 181 questionnaires were distributed, 173 (95.58％) were qualified.74.57％ of surveyed hospitals were secondary hospitals, 61.85％ were comprehensive hospitals, 67.05％ of respondents received HAI training in recent 3 years, 81.50％ and 55.49％ of hospital directors thought the main factors influencing the HAI management were health care workers'' awareness on HAI and leaders'' attention respectively.58.96％, 60.12％, and 46.82％ of hospital directors thought the director of HAI management department should have intermediate and above professional title, bachelor degree or above education, and preventive medicine professional requirements respectively.The awareness rate of HAI management-related knowledge was 86.71％, difference in awareness rate of HAI management-related knowledge among respondents of different job, gender, and HAI training in recent 3 years were all significantly different(all P<0.05).Conclusion Hospital directors'' cognition on HAI management affect the development of HAI work, strengthen the training on HAI knowledge among administrators can improve hospital administrators'' awareness on HAI prevention and control.

Objective To explore the impact of Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction on autophagy in rats with mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury(VILI)through adenylate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)signaling pathway.Methods Sixty SPF male rats were randomly grouped into the sham operation group,the model group,the low-dose Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction group(TCM-L group,2.85 g/kg),the high-dose Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction group(TCM-H group,8.55 g/kg)and the high-dose Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction + AMPK inhibitor Compound C group(TCM-H+CC group,Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction 8.55 g/kg+ Compound C 250μg/kg),12 in each group.Oxygenation index(OI)was measured immediately after intubation and at 1 h,2 h and 4 h after mechanical ventilation.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)was collected after mechanical ventilation,levels of tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-18 in BALF were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Rats were sacrificed,and lung tissue was taken to measure the wet/dry weight(W/D)ratio.HE staining was used to observe pathological changes of lung tissue in each group of rats.Lung injury scores were carried out.Morphology of alveolar epithelial cells was observed by transmission electron microscopy.RT-qPCR was applied to detect mRNA expression levels of AMPK and mTORC1 in rat lung tissue.Western blot assay was applied to detect expression levels of AMPK,p-AMPK,mTORC1,p-mTORC1 and autophagy-related proteins in rat lung tissue.Results Compared with the sham group,the pathological damage of lung tissue was serious,lung W/D,levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-18 in BALF,lung injury score,mTORC1 mRNA expression level,and p-mTORC1 protein expression were increased in the model group(P＜0.05).OI values at 2 h and 4 h of mechanical ventilation,AMPK mRNA expression level,p-AMPK,LC3-II/LC3-I and Beclin-1 protein expression in lung tissue were decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the pathological damage of lung tissue was alleviated in the Chinese medicine-H group,and the trend of changes in related indexes was opposite to the above(P＜0.05).Autophagosomes in alveolar epithelial cells were increased.Compound C attenuated the protective effect of Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction on VILI rats(P＜0.05).Conclusion Jiawei Taoren Chengqi Decoction may promote autophagy and reduce VILI in rats by activating AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.
