OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between nurse-to-patient ratios and hospital-acquired infec-tions(HAIs)in the intensive care units,and to assess the impact of both average and maximum nurse-to-patient ratios on the risk of HAIs.METHODS Data were obtained from the hospital information system(including Hospi-tal Information System,nursing sensitive quality indicator monitoring system and hospital infection management system).Inpatients aged 18 years and older in ten intensive care units from 1 Jan.2022 to 31 Dec.2023 were in-cluded;data on the nurse-to-patient ratios during day shifts,night shifts and the overall period and HAIs cases were collected.Univariate test was conducted to compare differences between the infection group and the non-infection group.Logistic regression models were utilized to evaluate the association between various nurse-to-patient ratio indicators and the risk of HAIs while controlling the covariates.RESULTS A total of 2 742 patients were included,with an HAIs incidence rate of 18.23%.The average patient-to-nurse ratio was significantly low-er in the infection group than in the non-infection group(2.76±0.82 vs.3.27±1.16,P<0.001),whereas the maximum nurse-to-patient ratios for the overall period,day and night shifts were 3.57±1.09(infected)vs.3.91±1.31(uninfected),3.30±1.12 vs.3.48±1.16,and 4.62±1.85 vs.5.10±2.08,respectively(all P<0.001).Regression analysis showed that no significant association between the average nurse-to-patient ratios for the overall period,day and night shifts and the risk of HAIs;whereas the odds ratios(ORs)for the maximum patient-to-nurse ratio greater than 4 were 2.122(1.355-3.324)for the overall period,2.061(1.333-3.186)for the day shift and 1.495(1.055-2.118)for the night shifts(all nurse-to-patient ratios≤3 in the reference group).CONCLUSIONS The maximum nurse-to-patient ratios are important risk factors for HAIs in the intensive care u-nits,whereas the average nurse-to-patient ratios are not significantly associated with HAIs.It is suggested that in-sufficient nursing resources during peak hours may increase the risk of infection,and optimizing the allocation of nursing care during peak hours will help to reduce the incidence of HAIs.
