Abstract
Objective To discuss the risk factors and nursing intervention of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) infection in patients of traditional Chinese medicine hospital (TCM). Methods By investigating the patients admitted to Beijing Xuan Wu Hospital of Traditional Chinese medicine from June 2015 to June 2016, 756 patients of them who were confirmed with clinical diagnosis of infection and pathogen detection with positive, which were divided into MDRO group including 97cases and non-MDRO group including 659 cases, then the pathogens of MRDO infection species and distributionwere counted, and analyzed risk factors for infection. Results A total of 756 cases were detected positive strains 816 strains, including 611 strains of monitoring target strains, 116 strains of MRDO. The top three were methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aurous 30.17%(35/116), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 18.97% (22/116) and Klebsiella pneumonia 18.10% (21/116). Single factor analysis results showed that the patients' age, hospitalization days, the history of other hospital admission, invasive procedure, basic chronic disease (diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, lung disease) and combined use of antibiotics were MDRO infection risk factors (χ2=9.470-198.609, P < 0.01); multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors of MDRO infection were the history of other hospital admission (OR=2.085, 95%CI1.040-4.179), invasive procedure (OR=3.063,95%CI1.526-6.150), diabetes (OR=2.037,95%CI1.070-3.877), cerebrovascular disease (OR=4.349,95%CI 2.035-9.293)and combined use of antibiotics (OR=18.723,95%CI9.202-38.094). Conclusions Patients of TCM have many characteristics, such as with more basic diseases, longer length of stay, elder and so on. So we should be alert to the risk of MDRO infection and take nursing interventions to prevent and strengthen the isolation prevention.
