脑梗死患者医院感染经济损失的对照研究

目的了解神经内科脑梗死患者因医院感染造成的直接经济损失。方法采用回顾性调查方法,对79例发生医院感染与300例未发生医院感染的脑梗死患者进行病例对照研究。结果感染组比对照组平均药费每例多花费3 873.56元,住院费用平均每例多花费6254.92元,医院感染组平均每例住院天数比对照组延长11d,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论积极开展医院感染经济损失的研究,加强医院感染管理。

Nosocomial Infection in Patients with Cerebral Infarction: A Case-control Study of Its Economic Losses

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the direct economic losses caused by nosocomial infection(NI) in patients with cerebral infarction.METHODS All patients(79 with NI as case group,300 without NI as control group) in pairs were investigated through case-control study retrospectively.RESULTS The average of expenses on medical service in NI group was higher when compared to that of control,the increased medical charge was 3 873.56 yuan and the increased hospitalized charge was 6 254.92 yuan.The average bed-staytime of NI group exceeded that of control by 11 days,there was a significant difference between two groups(P<0.01).CONCLUSIONS NI makes patients suffered from more pain and economic losses,heavier burden on doctors and nurses,cut down bed-turnover,and waste in medicine resources.So study of economic losses in NI will contribute to infection control,and it will benefit the hospital,further pay the attention of doctors and nurses and promote the development of nosocomial infection control.
