Journal Title: Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine - Year 2022, Vol 34, Issue 10
Abstract
ObjectiveTo identify high-risk factors and high-risk process of nosocomial infectionï¼ and then take targeted prevention and control measures to improve nosocomial infection management.MethodsWe identified and determined the risk factors associated with nosocomial infection by using an expert brainstorming methodï¼ and then conducted risk assessment of the factors in the outcomes and process by using a semi-quantitative method.ResultsA total of 31 experts participated in the risk factor assessment. Risk assessment scores showed that nosocomial infection due to multi-drug resistant bacteria was the highest risk in the outcomes of nosocomial infection. Lack of isolation for airborne/droplet transmissionï¼ needle/sharp instrument injuryï¼ inadequate identification of infection risk and response measures in construction engineeringï¼ and insufficient implementation of infection control system were extremely high risk factors in the process of nosocomial infection.ConclusionPrevention and control should be strengthened on multi-drug resistant bacteria and catheter-related infections. The role of multidisciplinary team ï¼MDTï¼ in the prevention and control of nosocomial infection should be enhanced in medical practice. Risk assessment may facilitate the resource allocation and improve hand hygiene behavior.
