Objective To know the status quo of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) infection in primary general hospitals, analyze the differences among various intervention measures, and put forward guiding principles for MDRO infection control in primary general hospitals. Methods We investigated all patients (n=51 612) admitted into the hospital between January 2013 and December 2015, and found out 6 types of MDRO. Pre-interventional investigation was carried out between January 2013 and June 2014 (before intervention) during which no intervention measures were taken; Intervention was carried out between July 2014 and December 2015 (after intervention). All departments in the hospital (6 groups) were matched with intervention measures (6 groups) randomly. Then, we compared the MDRO detection rate, nosocomial infection case rate and intervention compliance rate among the groups. Results We detected altogether 611 MDRO cases (without duplication) out of the 51 612 cases. The total detection rate of MDRO was 1.18%. The detection rate of MDRO before and after intervention was 1.37% and 1.01%, respectively. The difference between the two was of statistical significance (P<0.05). After the intervention, the detection rate in groups 1, 5 and 6 was significantly lower than before (P<0.05); the differences in detection rate among groups 2, 3, and 4 were not significant (P> 0.05). Nosocomial infection rate decreased from 0.28% before intervention to 0.14% after intervention (P<0.05). After the intervention, MDRO nosocomial infection case rate of groups 1, 5 and 6 was significantly lower than before (P<0.05); the rate was lower in groups 3 and 4 than before without any significance (P>0.05); no MDRO cases were detected in group 2 and comparison was meaningless. The knowledge rates of medical workers and of nursing staff increased from 52.97% and 20.00% before intervention to 78.76% and 66.34% after intervention, respectively (χ2=30.670, 38.604;P<0.05). The compliance to all kinds of protection measures improved significantly (P<0.05) except compliances to equipment of hand antiseptic agent and patient transfer order (P> 0.05). Conclusion Promoting the compliance rate to hand hygiene and environmental cleaning and disinfection, primary general hospitals can decrease the detection rate and nosocomial infection case rate of MDRO.
Objective To analyze the research hotspots and trends in the field of hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients at home and abroad, and to provide reference for the research and prevention and control of hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients. Methods China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science databases were searched by computer for literature about the hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients published between January 1995 and January 2023. The included literature was analyzed using visualization analysis tools for visualization, including high-frequency keywords, keyword co-occurrence map, keyword emergence intensity and keyword time series prediction. Results A total of 10 275 articles were included. Among them, there were 10 036 articles from web of science and 239 articles from CNKI. The number of articles in this research field showed a trend of steady increase year by year. The United States was in a leading position in the research and development in this field, followed by China. At the same time, the research in this field presents the characteristics of multidisciplinary integration. The development trends of research hotspots in the next 5 years were risk and health education research. Conclusions The number of research articles related to hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients is gradually increasing. Multidisciplinary approach and integration is a research hotspot and frontier in the development of hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients both domestically and internationally.
