Abstract
Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a common type of healthcare-associated infection. We performed a literature review to demonstrate the incidence of SSIs in mainland China based on studies since 2010. We included 231 eligible studies with ≥30 postoperative patients, comprising 14 providing overall SSI data regardless of surgical sites and 217 reporting SSIs for a specific site. We found that the overall SSI incidence was 2.91% (median; interquartile range: 1.05%, 4.57%) or 3.18% (pooled; 95% confidence interval: 1.85%, 4.51%) and the SSI incidence varied remarkably according to the surgical site between the lowest (median, 1.00%; pooled, 1.69%) in thyroid surgeries and the highest (median, 14.89%; pooled, 12.54%) in colorectal procedures. We uncovered that Enterobacterales and staphylococci were the most common types of micro-organisms associated with SSIs after various abdominal surgeries and cardiac or neurological procedures, respectively. We identified two, nine, and five studies addressing the impact of SSIs on mortality, the length of stay (LOS) in hospital, and additional healthcare-related economic burden, respectively, all of which demonstrated increased mortality, prolonged LOS, and elevated medical costs associated with SSIs among affected patients. Our findings illustrate that SSIs remain a relatively common, serious threat to patient safety in China, requiring more action. To tackle SSIs, we propose to establish a nationwide network for SSI surveillance using unified criteria with the aid of informatic techniques and to tailor and implement countermeasures based on local data and observation. We highlight that the impact of SSIs in China warrants further study.

Comparison of the efficacy of neuronavigation-assisted intracerebral hematoma puncture and drainage with neuroendoscopic hematoma removal in treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. BMC Surg 2024; 24:86. [PMID: 38475783 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-024-02378-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare neuronavigation-assisted intracerebral hematoma puncture and drainage with neuroendoscopic hematoma removal for treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. METHOD Ninety-one patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage admitted to our neurosurgery department from June 2022 to May 2023 were selected: 47 patients who underwent endoscopic hematoma removal with the aid of neuronavigation in observation Group A and 44 who underwent intracerebral hematoma puncture and drainage in control Group B. The duration of surgery, intraoperative bleeding, hematoma clearance rate, pre- and postoperative GCS score, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, mRS score and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The duration of surgery, intraoperative bleeding and hematoma clearance were significantly lower in Group B than in Group A (p < 0.05). Conversely, no significant differences in the preoperative, 7-day postoperative, 14-day postoperative or 1-month postoperative GCS or NIHSS scores or the posthealing mRS score were observed between Groups A and B. However, the incidence of postoperative complications was significantly greater in Group B than in Group A (p < 0.05), with the most significant difference in incidence of intracranial infection (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Both neuronavigation-assisted intracerebral hematoma puncture and drainage and neuroendoscopic hematoma removal are effective at improving the outcome of patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. The disadvantage of neuronavigation is that the incidence of complications is significantly greater than that of other methods; postoperative care and prevention of complications should be strengthened in clinical practice.

[PMID: 37576262 PMCID: PMC10412996 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e18525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Intracranial infection by Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) after neurosurgery has always been a difficult problem for neurosurgeons. This study analyzed risk factors that discriminated A. baumannii from other bacteria causing intracranial infection after neurosurgery. It also examined the differences in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) indexes to explore their value in the early diagnosis of intracranial infection by A. baumannii. Methods We retrospectively reviewed ten years (January 2011 to May 2021) of postoperative central nervous system (CNS) infections in the First Hospital of China Medical University. According to the pathogen, CNS infections were divided into A. baumannii group and other species of bacteria group. We collected clinical and laboratory information of patients, and statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 26.0. Risk factors were screened by univariate analysis, and independent risk factors were screened by multiple logistic regression analysis. Finally, CSF-Pro, CSF-Glu, CSF-Cl, CSF-monocytes (%), CSF-multinucleated cells (%) levels, and CSF multinucleated cells%/monocytes% in the different groups were analyzed. Results A total of 155 patients were included, 62 cases (40%) of intracranial infection by A. baumannii and 93 cases (60%) by other species of bacteria. The analysis showed that indwelling nasogastric tubes (P<0.001, OR = 4.231), indwelling peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) (P = 0.041, OR = 2.765), and CSF drainage obstruction (P = 0.003, OR = 3.765) were independent risk factors for intracranial infection by A. baumannii after neurosurgery. Indwelling ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) was a protective factor (P = 0.033, OR = 0.22). In addition, compared with other bacterial groups, the A. baumannii group had higher CSF-pro and CSF- multinucleated cells (%) levels and lower CSF-Glu and CSF- monocytes (%) levels, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Conclusions Our results elucidate risk factors and differences in CSF indexes for intracranial infection by A. baumannii after neurosurgery that could be detected and prevented early to reduce mortality.

Analysis of the Factors Related to Intracranial Infection after Brain Tumor Surgery. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:6988560. [PMID: 36118945 PMCID: PMC9467713 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6988560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
In order to explore the factors related to intracranial infection after brain tumor surgery, a retrospective analysis is conducted in this study. According to the patients with intracranial infection after brain tumor surgery in our hospital from January 2020 to October 2020, clinical data are divided into different groups and some indicators are put into the multiple regression model for multivariate analysis. The factors related to intracranial infection after brain tumor surgery are analyzed, and the clinical effect of a detailed management plan based on the abovementioned risk factors to prevent intracranial infection in patients after brain tumor surgery is observed. Multiple regression models demonstrate that complicated underlying diseases, operation time, and intraoperative blood loss are independent risk factors for postoperative intracranial infection.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11143973. [PMID: 35887741 PMCID: PMC9317602 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11143973] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2022] [Revised: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: To generate an optimal prediction model along with identifying major contributors to intracranial infection among patients under external ventricular drainage and neurological intensive care. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted among patients admitted into neurointensive care units between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2020 who underwent external ventricular drainage due to traumatic brain injury, hydrocephalus, and nonaneurysmal spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage. Multivariate logistic regression in combination with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression was applied to derive prediction models and optimize variable selections. Other machine-learning algorithms, including the support vector machine and K-nearest neighbor, were also applied to derive alternative prediction models. Five-fold cross-validation was used to train and validate each model. Model performance was assessed by calibration plots, receiver operating characteristic curves, and decision curves. A nomogram analysis was developed to explicate the weights of selected features for the optimal model. Results: Multivariate logistic regression showed the best performance among the three tested models with an area under curve of 0.846 ± 0.006. Six variables, including hemoglobin, albumin, length of operation time, American Society of Anesthesiologists grades, presence of traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, and a history of diabetes, were selected from 37 variable candidates as the top-weighted prediction features. The decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram could be applied clinically when the risk threshold is between 20% and 100%. Conclusions: The occurrence of external ventricular-drainage-associated intracranial infections could be predicted using optimal models and feature-selection approaches, which would be helpful for the prevention and treatment of this complication in neurointensive care units.

Abstract
Objective. To explore the effect of the solution-focused approach combined with family involvement in the WeChat platform management on inpatients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods. A total of 80 ICH patients hospitalized in our hospital from June 2018 to June 2021 were split into the control group (CG) and the study group (SG) according to the clinical nursing modes, with 40 cases in each group. Both groups received routine intervention, while SG additionally received the solution-focused approach combined with family involvement in the WeChat platform management to compare the self-care ability, psychological status, and hope levels between the two groups after intervention. Results. No significant differences in general data were observed between the two groups (
). The SAS and SDS scores before intervention showed mild depression and anxiety in both groups, which improved after intervention. In addition, the SAS and SDS scores after intervention were remarkably lower in SG than in CG (
). After intervention, the scores of ICH-related knowledge, self-care skills, self-care responsibility, and rehabilitation knowledge in SG were notably higher compared with CG (
). After intervention, the Herth scores of both groups increased, with a higher score in SG than in CG (
). After intervention, SG had higher quality of life (QOL) scores in general health, physiological function, physiological role, body pain, vitality, social function, emotional role, and physiological health than CG (
). Conclusion. The implementation of the solution-focused approach combined with family involvement in the WeChat platform management for ICH inpatients can effectively improve their psychological status, enhance their self-care ability and hope levels, promote body recovery, and improve their QOL after intervention.
