Objective To explore the risk factors of catheter-associated bloodstream infections ( CRBSI) in intensive care unit ( ICU) of primary hospital. Methods A total of 623 patients with central venous catheters were recruited in the study. 60 of themsuffered fromCRBSI served as an observation group and other 563 cases without CRBSI served as control. Univariate analysis was used to scan possible risk factors. Then logistic regression analysis was used to exclude the confounding factors. Results The overall incidence rate of CRBSI was 9. 63% ( 60 /623) . There were significant differences in APACHE score, type of catheter, location of catheter, duration of central venous catheter, intravenous nutrition, use of steroid, times of intubation, urgent intubations, nutritional status, diabetes, and MODS between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis revealed that higher APACHE score, double-lumen catheter, femoral vein catheter, catheter indwelling more than two weeks, intravenous nutrition, intubation more than 2 times, and emergency intubation were risk factors of CRBSI. Conclusions Higher APACHE score, double-lumen catheter, femoral vein catheter, catheter indwelling more than two weeks, intravenous nutrition, intubation more than 2 times, and emergency intubation were major risk factors of CRBSI in ICU of primary hospital.
Objective To investigate the risk factors of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) and provide clinical guidance for reducing the incidence of CLABSI. Methods The clinical data of patients with central venous catheter catheterization in Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital between January 2018 and December 2021 were retrospectively collected. According to whether CLABSI occurred, the patients were divided into CLABSI group and non-CLABSI group. The data of patients were analyzed and the risk factors of CLABIS were discussed. Results A total of 43 987 patients were included. Among them, there were 63 cases in the CLABSI group and 43924 cases in the non-CLABSI group. The incidence of CLABSI was 0.18/1 000 catheter days. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that admission to intensive care unit (ICU) [odds ratio (OR)=74.054, 95% confidence interval (CI) (22.661, 242.005), P<0.001], hemodialysis [OR=4.531, 95%CI (1.899, 10.809), P=0.001] and indwelling catheter days [OR=1.017, 95%CI (1.005, 1.029), P=0.005] were independent risk factors for CLABSI. A total of 63 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from the 63 patients with CLABSI. Among them, 28 strains of Gram-positive bacteria, 25 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 10 strains of Candida. Conclusions Admission to ICU, hemodialysis and long-term indwelling catheter are independent risk factors for CLABSI. The prevention and control measures of CLABSI should be strictly implemented for such patients to reduce the risk of infection.
Peripheral inserted central catheter (PICC) is the most commonly used central venous catheter in hospitalized patients, and catheter-related bloodstreams infection (CRBSI) is one of the most serious complications during PICC retention, which can affect patient prognosis and treatment. Reducing the incidence of intravascular CRBSI is one of the goals of medical quality and safety management, which continues to attract the attention of domestic and foreign experts and scholars. Authoritative institutions at home and abroad have successively issued a series of prevention and control guidelines and expert consensus, and related research on risk assessment of CRBSI is also rapidly developing. This article reviews the risk assessment, prevention and control measures, and information monitoring and feedback of PICC-related bloodstreams infection, in order to provide reference for building a PICC-related bloodstreams infection prevention and control system.
