Abstract:ObjectiveTo investigate the occurrence of central venous catheterrelated bloodstream infection(CRBSI) in mass severe burn patients, evaluate related risk factors for infection, and effectiveness of prevention and control measures. MethodsIn August 2014, 9 cases of severe burn patients were rescued in a hospital, all patients received CVC, infection prevention and control intervention measures were performed during the whole process of catheterization. ResultsAll patients received 30 episodes of CVC,total CVCdays were 227 days, bacterial culture for threecavity catheters of femoral veins in 2 patients were positive, incidence of CRBSI was 8.81‰;1 patient was isolated Enterococcus faecium,1 isolated both Acinetobacter baumannii and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. 2 CRBSI patients received femoral vein catheterization, catheterization site was trauma surface, duration of catheterization were both ≥7 days, both used threecavity catheters, and third degree burns were ≥60%, both patients were cured after timely removal of catheters and receiving of antimicrobial agents. ConclusionCVC is helpful for long term, safe and effective fluid infusion, but it can cause CRBSI; infection prevention and control intervention for patients receiving CVC during the whole process of catheterization can reduce the occurrence of CRBSI.
