  • Consecutive six-year targeted monitoring on healthcare-associated infections in pediatric intensive care unit of a hospital

    ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence and trendency of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in a pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) of a hospital, identify the main objectives of infection control, and formulate corresponding preventive and control measures.MethodsA prospective targeted monitoring method was adopted to investigate HAIs in the pediatric ICU of a hospital from January 2013 to December 2018.ResultsFrom January 2013 to December 2018, the number of target ICU patients was 11 898, the number of patient-days was 55 159; 226 HAIs occurred, the HAI case rate was 1.90%, the incidence of HAI per 1 000 patient-days was 4.10‰, and the adjusted incidence of HAI per 1 000 patient-days was 1.21‰. The main infection site was respiratory tract [83 cases (36.7%)], with ventilator-associated pneumonia in 73 cases (32.3%); secondly, 69 patients (30.5%) had bloodstream infection, among which 48 (21.2%) had non-catheter-related bloodstream infection.ConclusionHospital targeted monitoring is helpful to grasp the situation and trend of HAIs, define the main target of infection control, and formulate corresponding preventive and control measures, which can effectively reduce the incidence of HAIs.

  • Research status and progress of core outcome sets in the field of traditional Chinese medicine

    ObjectivesWith the increasing number of core outcome sets (COS) in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), some problems gradually emerged, which may affect the popularization and application of COS. This paper analyzes the COS research status in the field of TCM based on registry and literature databases, so that researchers may pay attention to it. Methods Registry platforms and literature databases of Chinese and English were both searched from inception to June, 2022. Qualitative analysis was used to analyze the research status of COS. ResultsSeventy-two COS studies were identified from registry platforms, and the results showed some problems, such as uneven disease distribution, insufficient attention to TCM characteristics, unclear COS scope, and insufficient patient and public participation. Ninety-nine studies were identified from different databases, only 7.07% (7/99) of the studies were COS results, and few of them were cited by clinical trials and/or systematic reviews. ConclusionThe authors proposed that standardizing the registration of COS in the field of TCM, improving the methodology of COS studies, expanding the application settings of COS, and strengthening the cooperation of different stakeholder groups are important to ameliorate sustainable development of COS.
