Objective To explore the infection condition of Acinetobacter baumannii at the Neurosurgery Intensive Care Unit (NICU), and analyze the possible risk factors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of Acinetobacter baumannii infection patients with craniocerebral injury treated at the NICU between January 2011 and June 2013. We collected such information as infection patients' population distribution, infection site, invasive operations and patients' nurse-in-charge level and so on, and analyzed the possible risk factors for the infection. Results Thirty-one patients were infected with Acinetobacter baumannii, and they were mainly distributed between 60 and 80 years old. The main infection site was lower respiratory tract, followed in order by urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract, skin and soft tissue. The risk factors might be related to age, invasive operation, nurse working ability, etc. Conclusion The patients at the NICU are vulnerable to infection of Acinetobacter baumannii. Reducing invasive diagnosis and nursing procedures, providing optimal care, and carrying out specialized nurse standardization training may be the important means to effectively reduce the infection.
