ObjectiveTo analyze the trend of hospital infection, so as to provide a scientific basis for hospital infection prevention and control. MethodsFrom 2011 to 2013, according to the criteria of diagnosis of nosocomial infections set up by the Ministry of Health, the prevalence rates of nosocomial infections in patients who were hospitalized on the survey day were investigated by the combination of bedside investigation and medical records checking. ResultsThe incidence rates of nosocomial infections from 2011 to 2013 were 2.99%, 2.31% and 1.95%, respectively, presenting a downward trend. The rate of hospital infection was the highest in comprehensive Intensive Care Unit, and the main infection site was the lower respiratory tract. Gram-negative bacteria were the main pathogens causing hospital infections, including Klebliella pnermoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumannii and Escherichia coli. The utilization rates of antibacterial agents in these three years were respectively 39.84%, 34.58% and 34.22%. ConclusionTargeted surveillance and management of key departments and sites should be strengthened. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance and management of antibiotics, raise the submission rate of pathogens, and use antibiotics appropriately.
ObjectiveTo summarize the variation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) after thyroidectomy and the influence factors of postthyroidectomy hypocalcemia (PHC). MethodsClinical data of 95 patients who underwent thyroidectomy in Affiliated Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from Jan. 2015 to Dec. 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsOf the 95 patients, there were 27 patient (28.42%) suffered from PHC (PHC group), and levels of serum calcium in the other 68 patients (71.58%) were normal (normal group). There was no significant difference in levels of serum calcium and PTH between the PHC group and normal group before operation (P > 0.05), but levels of serum calcium and PTH in PHC group were both lower than corresponding index of normal group after operation (P < 0.05). The levels of serum calcium and PTH both decreased in PHC group after operation (P < 0.05), and only PTH level decreased in normal group after operation (P < 0.05). PHC was related with type of operation, who underwent two-side operation had higher risk of PHC (P < 0.05), but there was no significant relationship between PHC and gender or age (P > 0.05). ConclusionsPTH is an important factor for PHC. In addition, it is easier to occur PHC when the operative range become bigger.
