Medical institutions of China still face two challenges in hospital infections currently: one challenge is from infection, including infectious diseases, multidrug-resistant bacteria healthcare-associated infection (HAI), and classic HAI; the another challenge comes from the management of HAI in medical institutions, such as lack of full-time staff and insufficient capacity, inadequate infection control organizations, insufficient awareness of infection control among medical staff, and unbalanced development. To cope with these severe challenges, we must do the following three aspects: establishing the discipline of HAI, and improving people’s infection control ability through human-orienting; improving the management organization and system of HAI; improving the awareness of infection control among all medical staff, carrying out scientific and orderly infection prevention and control work in accordance with the law, and adhering to evidence-based infection control.
Objective To compare the epidemic status of nosocomial infections (NIs) among medical institutions at different levels. Methods The cross-sectional surveys on prevalence rates of NIs, distribution of NIs, and antimicrobial use were conducted through combination of bedside investigation and medical record reviewing among all in-patients of 20 medical institutions in Baoshan District, Shanghai from 00:01 to 24:00 on November 12th 2014, December 9th 2015, and November 30th 2016, respectively. Results A total of 18 762 patients were investigated, the prevalence rate of NIs in the first, second, and third class hospitals were 5.36%, 2.37%, 1.68%, respectively (χ2=88.497, P<0.05). The main NIs sites were lower respiratory tract, urinary tract, and upper respiratory tract in the first and second grade hospitals; while were other unclassified sites, respiratory tract, and upper respiratory tract in the third grade hospitals. The utilization rates for antimicrobial in the first, second, and third grade hospitals were 5.88%, 31.64%, and 42.11%, respectively (χ2=928.148, P<0.05); submission rates for specimen were 9.82%, 48.89%, and 82.39%, respectively (χ2=601.347, P<0.05). Four cases of pathogen were reported in the first grade hospitals, 94 in the second grade hospitals, and 96 in the third grade hospitals. The in-patients in different hospitals with different genders, ages, and departments had a statistical difference in prevalence rate of NIs (P<0.05) . Conclusion The first grade hospitals need to enhance the etiological examination; the third grade hospitals should severely restrict the antimicrobial utilization, and refine the prevention and control work for NIs.
ObjectiveTo find out the major isolates distribution, drug resistance changes of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) in 2013 for rational use of antibiotics and hospital infection control. MethodsA total of 32 566 cultured bacteria samples from the patients diagnosed between January 1st and December 31st 2013 were collected, using conventional tube biochemical assays and semi-automatic automicrobic (AMS) for bacteria identification; and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, major drug resistance mechanism detection were performed according to CLSI documents. MDRO definition was made according to the 2011 international consensus from European Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), American CDC, Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), and Food and Drug Administration. The data was analyzed by WHOnet 5.6 software. ResultsWe got 3 684 strains isolates, G- accounted for 76.08%, G+ 16.80%, fungi 7.11%, and fastidious bacteria 17.29%. The top ten isolates in order were:E.coli, A.baumannii, Ps.aeruginosa, H.influenzae, K.pneumoniae, S.aureus, S.pneumoniae, A.fumigatus, M.catarrhalis and C.freundii. From the first quarter 2012 to the fourth quarter 2013, the extended spectrum β lactamases (ESBL)-producing E.coli increased from 40.23% to 53.54%, ESBL-producing K.pneumonia increased from 14.28% to 34.78%, XDR-A.baumannii increased from 62.38% to 99.25%, metalloenzyme-producing Ps.aeruginosa increased from 7.37% to 25.37%, methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus increased from 23.81% to 58.70%, and VRE increased from 0.00% to 28.12%. ConclusionIn the isolates, the percentage of G- was the highest, and the rate of MDRO are all unremittingly raising, which suggests us should pay more attention to microbiology analysis, rational use of antibiotics, strengthening hospital infection control, reducing the bacterial resistance, and strengthening MDRO surveillance.
Objective To understand the influence of organisational support and professional identity of hospital infection prevention and control (HIPC) practitioner in public hospitals. Methods HIPC practitioner of the public medical institutions secondary level and above in Neijiang City, Sichuan Province were used as the research object. A questionnaire survey was used to analyze their organizational support and professional identity in May 2022, to compare the differences in organizational support and professional identity among HIPC practitioner with different positions, working ages, and majors, and analyze the correlation between organizational support and professional identity among HIPC practitioner. Results A total of 90 valid questionnaires were retrieved from investigation. The average scores for organizational support and professional identity among HIPC practitioner were (3.409±0.625) and (2.518±0.504) points. Among them, the organizational support of intermediate professional title personnel [(3.155±0.785) points], personnel with 5-10 years of service [(3.071±0.696) points], and clinical physicians [(3.342±0.860) points] were the lowest; the professional identity of personnel with intermediate professional titles [(2.357±0.477) points], those with more than 10 years of service[(2.431±0.454) points], and other professionals [(2.471±0.260) points] were the lowest. The Pearson correlation analysis results showed that there was a positive correlation between organizational support and professional identity (r=0.490, P<0.05), self-identity and work support (r=0.364, P<0.05), and environmental identity and relationship interests (r=0.698, P<0.05). Conclusions Due to the low level of organizational support, there is a decrease in professional identity and significant job burnout, which in turn leads to an increase in the turnover rate of infection control professionals. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the sense of organizational support for specialized personnel in infection control to promote their professional identity and stabilize the infection control team. Suggest providing necessary support at the organizational level and self-improvement at the individual level.

The purpose is to make the evaluated hospitals attach importance to the standardized implementation of daily work of IPC, focus on the routine, objective, and quantitative approach to accreditation work, and continuously achieve the effect of quality improvement in IPC.
Objective To investigate the application of risk assessment in the control of nosocomial infections in surgical departments of infectious disease hospitals so as to provide references for the regulation of prevention and control measures. Methods Nosocomial infection risks in surgical departments of infectious disease hospitals were identified by the method of brainstorming. Based on risk assessment and planning of American children's national medical center in Washington for epidemic and infectious diseases control, the matrix method was used for risk assessment. The three highest risks were controlled, and then we compared the incidence of nosocomial infections before and after the risk assessment. Results The major risk factors in surgical departments existed in the process of diagnosis and treatment. By matrix scoring, excluding high readiness items, we found that the top three risks were airborne diseases, prevention and nursing of hematogenous infections and air disinfection. Nosocomial infection rate in the surgical departments dropped to 2.03% after carrying out risk assessment and taking correspondent measures (χ2=5.480,P=0.019). Conclusion Evaluation of nosocomial infection risk in surgical departments of infectious disease hospitals can discover major potential risks and reduce the incidence of nosocomial infections, which can provide references for management and control of nosocomial infections.

Objective To explore the effect of “net bottom” management in the control of device-associated infections (DAIs) in elderly patients by setting infection monitoring doctors and nurses in the emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods Elderly patients who aged≥60 years old admitted to the EICU of the First People’s Hospital of Lianyungang between April 2018 and March 2021 were selected as the research subjects. A “net bottom” management mode was established and implemented for the purpose of infection prevention and control, taking medical and other departments as the coordination and management subjects, and infection monitoring doctors and nurses as the core. The effectiveness of the management intervention was evaluated by comparing the incidences of DAIs in elderly patients, the compliance rates of medical staff in hand hygiene, and the consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day in EICU among the primary stage (from April 2018 to March 2019), intermediate stage (from April 2019 to March 2020), and later stage (from April 2020 to March 2021). Results During the primary stage, intermediate stage, and later stage, there were 540, 497, and 507 elderly inpatients in EICU monitored, respectively, and the incidences of nosocomial infections were 7.22% (39/540), 5.84% (29/497), and 4.14% (21/507), respectively, showing a decreasing trend (χ2trend=4.557, P=0.033). The incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia, central line-associated bloodstream infections, and catheter-associated urinary tract infections decreased from 4.82‰, 2.53‰, and 0.95‰, respectively in the primary stage, to 0.51‰, 1.01‰, and 0.53‰, respectively in the later stage, among which the difference in the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia was statistically significant (P<0.05). The hand hygiene compliance rate of EICU medical staff increased from 70.39% to 86.67% (P<0.05), and the consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day increased from 33.70 mL to 67.27 mL. The quarterly hand hygiene compliance rate was positively correlated with the quarterly consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day (rs=0.846, P=0.001), and negatively correlated with the quarterly incidence of nosocomial infections (rs=–0.769, P=0.003). Conclusion The “net bottom” management by setting up infection monitoring doctors and nurses in the EICU and multi-department collaboration can reduce the incidence of DAIs in elderly patients in EICU, which plays a positive role in promoting the hospital infection management and improving the quality of hospital infection management.
