Objective To evaluate the incidence of central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI) among critically ill children, and provide basis for making preventive and control measures.Methods Prospective surveillance was performed to monitor CLABSI among children (including neonates) with central lines in 7 children's intensive care units(ICUs) from January 2012 to December 2015.Results Of 37 712 hospitalized patients, the overall length of hospital stay were 268 531 days, the overall central line-day was 57 639, utilization rate of central line was 21.46%;126 patients had CLABSI, CLABSI rate per 1 000 central line-days was 2.19, there was no significant difference in the CLABSI rate among each year(P>0.05);CLABSI rate in the third quarter was higher than that in other quarters(all P<0.05,compared with the first quarter,RR[95%CI]=1.98[1.20, 3.29]);CLABSI rates were different among different types of ICUs, surgical neonatal ICU (SNICU)(6.12/1 000 central line-days) was higher than other types of ICUs (all P<0.05, compared with pediatric ICUs[PICUs], RR[95%CI]=3.02[1.51-6.04]).126 patients with CLABSI were isolated 139 strains of pathogenic bacteria, the main pathogens were Klebsiella pneumoniae (20.86%) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (15.83%).Conclusion Critically ill children in SNICU are high risk population of CLABSI infection, intensified intervention measures should be developed for the department , so as to reduce CLABSI effectively.

Objective To explore the incidence of nosocomial infection in a neonatal intensive care unit(NICU) so as to come out with scientific and effective measures for infection control. Method Real-time monitoring system was used for investigating nosocomial infection of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI), and central-line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) in NICU. Results Among 2 836 patients, 28 patients were infected, with the rate of 0.99%and the case-time infection rate of 1.09%. The nosocomial infection manifested to be blood infection with the rate of 35.48%, and 10%of main pathogens were gram-negative bacteria. Conclusions Targeted monitoring in NICU can make the nosocomial infection information acquired timely, objectively and accurately. The strict and intensified prevention and control program should be adopted to reduce the neonatal nosocomial infection.

Objective To investigate the hygienic status of large bottles of medical ultrasonic coupling gel in medical institution.Methods From February 2012 to April 2016, microbial contamination of large bottles of medical ultrasonic coupling gel in a women and children''s hospital was investigated and analyzed through on-the-spot random sampling and detection method.Results A total of 170 large bottles of medical ultrasonic coupling gel specimens were collected, 25 specimens were qualified, the qualified rate was 14.71％.Specimens were mainly from inpatient wards(58.24％) and operating departments(21.76％);there was no statistical difference in the qualified rate of specimens in each department(P>0.05).Contamination rates of coupling gel before and after the opening were both>80％, difference was not significant(P>0.05).A total of 145 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated, 18 of which were from unopened bottles, and 127 from opened bottles.Burkholderia cepacia was the main strain in both unopened and opened bottles, which accounting for 83.33％ and 54.33％ respectively,in addition, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens were also isolated from opened bottles, both were 15.75％, mixed contamination bacteria all included Serratia marcescens Conclusion The total bacteria counts in medical ultrasonic coupling gel in large bottles exceed the standard seriously, the manufacturer should strictly observe the quality control standards, medical institutions should adopt effective cleaning and disinfection measures.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in a children's spe-cialty hospital in Guangzhou in 2014.Methods A cross-sectional survey was undertaken to investigate the preva-lence of HAI among all hospitalized patients on September 17,2014.Results A total of 997 patients were investiga-ted,30 patients developed 32 times of HAI,HAI rate and HAI case rate were 3.01% and 3.21% respectively. The main infection sites were upper respiratory tract(n= 11,34.38% );the departments with higher HAI prevalence rates were intensive care unit(ICU,3 .99% )and pediatric internal medicine department(3 .60% );the rate of etio-logical examination in patients with HAI accounted for 93 .33% ,a total of 24 strains of pathogens were isolated,6 of which were virus (25 . 00% ),6 were fungi (25 . 00% ),11 were bacteria (45 . 83% ),and 1 was Chlamydia (4.17% ). The main bacteria were Staphylococcusaureus (n= 3,27.27% )and Staphylococcusepidermidis (n= 3, 27.27% );a total of 451 (45.24% )patients received antimicrobial agents on the investigation day,67.41% of whom received therapeutic use of antimicrobial agents,19.73% received prophylactic use,and 12.86% received both therapeutic and prophylactic use;mono-drug application accounted for 82 .26% ,the percentage of bacterial de-tection among patients with therapeutic antimicrobial use (including combination of therapeutic and prophylactic use)was 82.60% .Conclusion Management of key departments and key sites of HAI should be strengthened in children's specialty hospital,antimicrobial agents should be used rationally,so as to protect the safety of children.
