Proactive error prevention in the intensive care unit 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Care provided in the ICU accounts for nearly 30% of acute care hospital costs and, with the aging of Americans, there is an increased demand for critical care services [1]. Critical illness reduces an individual's physical resilience. Minute-to-minute care decisions and interventions mean life or death during this acute disease phase. Critically ill patients have limited ability to defend themselves from the consequences of health care error. This patient population has the least ability to communicate symptoms to health care providers. The risk of adverse events caused by medications or equipment malfunction is higher because patients in the ICU receive twice as many medications as patients in general care units [2] and often require mechanical support of normal body functions, such as breathing, eating, and eliminating body waste. Consequently, the patient in the ICU has a higher exposure to medical error than patients in other areas of the hospital. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We have examined studies published since the severe acute respiratory syndrome outbreak that elucidate the mode of transmission of respiratory pathogens and the optimal means of interrupting their transmission, focusing on transmission in the intensive care unit. RECENT FINDINGS: The severe acute respiratory syndrome may be transmitted by the droplet, contact and occasionally the airborne route. Transmission occurred most frequently when healthcare workers failed to use standard precautions such as hand washing or personal protective equipment designed to limit droplet and contact transmission. Aerosol-generating procedures increased transmission, but incomplete use of personal protective equipment during procedures was common. Recent publications have stressed the benefits of appropriate staffing levels, the use of single occupancy rooms, the immunization of healthcare workers against influenza, and the importance of healthcare workers remaining home when ill in reducing the morbidity and mortality of respiratory infection within the intensive care unit. SUMMARY: Most respiratory pathogens can be transmitted by more than one route. Despite this, healthcare worker awareness of clinical syndromes associated with respiratory pathogens that require airborne precautions, combined with the use of standard precautions for all patients, and contact/droplet precautions for patients with undifferentiated febrile respiratory illness should be effective in interrupting the transmission of respiratory pathogens within the intensive care unit. 相似文献

Nosocomial infections are common in many hospital departments, but particularly so on the intensive care unit, where they affect some 20 to 30% of patients. While early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are, of course, important, perhaps the greatest challenge is in the application of techniques to limit the development of such infections. This review will briefly discuss some of the background pathophysiology and epidemiology of nosocomial infection, and then focus on general and infection-specific preventative strategies individually and as part of broader infection-control programs with infection surveillance. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Infections remain an important threat for critically ill patients, and the emergence of antibiotic resistance is increasingly hampering successful treatment. In this review, new aspects of the diagnosis and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia and of strategies of antibiotic use to limit the development and spread of resistance are described. RECENT FINDINGS: Prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia is cost effective, but the most optimal preventive measure (or set of measures) remains controversial. There is growing evidence that antibiotic prophylaxis reduces the occurrence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and improves patient outcome. Moreover, antibiotic use can be reduced by increasing the specificity of diagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia and by limiting the duration of antibiotic treatment. SUMMARY: Recent developments in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia and strategies to reduce emergence of antibiotic resistance have been reviewed. Whether changes in antibiotic policy will reduce the emergence of antibiotic resistance remains to be determined. In this area, methodologic problems that have been overlooked in many studies have been addressed recently. These issues must be clarified to provide reliable data on the effects of interventions in hospital settings. 相似文献

Healthcare-associated infection (HCAI), also known as nosocomial infection, is one of the main causes of adverse events in the neonate. Despite current infection control policies and practices and ongoing education programmes for healthcare workers, HCAI infection rates within the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) continue to increase, often with devastating results. This review of the literature aims to increase awareness of some of the many issues that contribute to high HCAI rates in the NICU, thereby highlighting many more interventions that can be carried out by the healthcare worker to reduce these rates. This literature review is limited because it considers only the contribution that healthcare workers make to HCAI rates. 相似文献

Increasing numbers of infants and children with AIDS are being admitted to the PICU, especially in certain geographic areas. Clear diagnostic criteria are available to aid in the diagnosis. As many as 50 per cent of these patients may be first diagnosed with AIDS during their PICU stay. Most patients are admitted because of ARF, but septic shock and CNS disorders are also common. Acute PICU mortality is in excess of 80 per cent, and presently the long-term mortality for this syndrome stands at 100 per cent. The economic impact of this epidemic is enormous and may become catastrophic if a national strategy to deal with these costs is not developed promptly. The PICU has an important role both in terms of resource use and cost containment. Awareness of unique stresses on medical and nursing staff caring for these children, as well as the unique psychoemotional needs of the patients themselves, is vital. Specific infection control, nutritional, and medical-legal strategies will facilitate safe, effective delivery of care to these infants and children in the PICU. The appropriate long-term role of the PICU in the care of children with an ultimately terminal disease has yet to be determined. 相似文献

Critical care is both expensive and increasing. Emergency department (ED) management of critically ill patients before intensive
care unit (ICU) admission is an under-explored area of potential cost saving in the ICU. Although limited, current data suggest
that ED care has a significant impact on ICU costs both positive and negative. ICU practices can also affect the ED, with
a lack of ICU beds being the primary reason for ED overcrowding and ambulance diversion in the USA. Earlier application in
the ED of intensive therapies such as goal-directed therapy and noninvasive ventilation may reduce ICU costs by decreasing
length of stay and need for admission. Future critical care policies and health services research should include both the
ED and ICU in their analyses. 相似文献

Clostridium difficile in the intensive care unit: management problems and prevention issues 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several patients hospitalized in our 12-bed medical ICU were found to have Clostridium difficile associated colitis. Stool cultures of all patients identified eight cases (three culture positive, and five culture and cytotoxin positive), seven of which were geographically and temporarily clustered within a 2-wk period. At least one patient appeared to contract the disease after hospitalization and in the absence of antibiotic therapy or other known major risk factors. The outbreak highlights the problem of C. difficile in the ICU. We believe that a heightened awareness of the multiple risk factors and preventive measures, along with consideration of possible nosocomial transmission, will be necessary to prevent or arrest future clusters of cases in the ICU. The diagnosis of one patient with this infection in a unit should prompt a review of all other patients within the unit. 相似文献

Purpose
We investigated the characteristics of Acinetobacter baumannii infection in critically ill patients with hematologic malignancies.Materials and Methods
The prospectively collected data of patients with hematologic malignancies admitted to a medical intensive care unit of a university hospital from 2007 through 2010 were reviewed retrospectively.Results
One hundred twenty-eight patients were included in the study, among whom 35 (27%) developed 39 A baumannii infections. Pneumonia was the most common infection site of A baumannii. Presence of neutropenia, underlying hematologic malignancy, and the disease status did not affect the acquisition of the infection. Advancing age, prior exposure to aminoglycosides, central venous catheterization, and presence of nasogastric tube were the independent risk factors for the development of A baumannii infections. The mortality rate was higher in patients with A baumannii infections compared with the ones without (P = .009). However, in multivariate analysis, low Glasgow coma scale, prior immunosuppressive treatment, neutropenia, invasive mechanical ventilation, and severe sepsis were independently associated with mortality, whereas presence of A baumannii infection was not.Conclusions
Despite the high mortality rate in critically ill patients with hematologic malignancies, presence of A baumannii infection was not an independent risk factor for mortality. 相似文献18.
One hundred and one patients, nursed in an intensive care unit for at least 24h, were monitored for bacterial colonization
and infection. The infection rates were similar to those in other reports. Patients were not generally colonized with common
environmental strains in the unit. Bacterial dissemination between patients was uncommon. No gentamicin resistant gram negative
or Staphylococcus aureus strains were observed, nor methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. the hypothesis that these favourable conditions are partly related to the excellent isolation and barrier nursing
facilities in the unit cannot be fully substantiated. 相似文献
