BACKGROUND Risk factors for nosocomial pneumonia, such as gastro-oesophageal reflux and subsequent aspiration, can be reduced by semirecumbent body position in intensive-care patients. The objective of this study was to assess whether the incidence of nosocomial pneumonia can also be reduced by this measure. METHODS This trial was stopped after the planned interim analysis. 86 intubated and m...
بررسی علل پنومونی های بیمارستانی در بخش های مراقبت ویژه بیمارستانهای آموزشی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی همدان
Introduction & Objective: Nosocomial pneumonia is pneumonia that occurs at least 48 hours after hospitalization. In total, this infection is the second most common cause of hospital-acquired infection in intensive care units. The purpose of conducting this research was the detection of etiology of nosocomial pneumonia in the ICUs of teaching hospitals of Hamadan University of medical sciences...
This study in the Islamic Republic of Iran aimed to determine whether metoclopramide can prevent nosocomial pneumonia in the intensive care unit (ICU). Of 220 patients admitted to the surgical ICU who had a nasogastric tube for more than 24 hours, 68 case patients received oral metoclopramide (10 mg every 8 hours) and 152 control patients did not. Similar proportions of cases and controls devel...
INTRODUCTION Nosocomial pneumonia is a significant cause of in-hospital morbidity and mortality. Oral care interventions have great potential to reduce the occurrence of nosocomial pneumonia. Studies using topical antiseptic agents yielded mixed results. We hypothesized that the use of chlorhexidine for oral decontamination would reduce the incidence of nosocomial pneumonia in patients requirin...
This study aimed to estimate the rate of and risk factors for nosocomial pneumonia of patients admitted to hospitals in Taif, Saudi Arabia. A case-control study was conducted of 211 discharged patients with confirmed pneumonia and 633 controls without pneumonia and a review was made of hospital records during 1999-2003. Multiple logistic regression showed that duration of hospital stay, unit of...
conclusion the calculated ni rate in our study (14.7%) is higher than usual rates reported from picu in other societies. meanwhile, long stay in picu and age less than 2 years are the main risk factor for ni and subjects with ni are 5.13 times more likely to die. patients and methods this cross sectional study was carried out on all patients hospitalized for more than 48 hours in pediatric inte...
The purpose of the study was to examine risk factors for nosocomial pneumonia in the surgical and medical/respiratory intensive care unit (ICU) populations. In a public teaching hospital, all cases of nosocomial pneumonia in the surgical and medical/respiratory ICUs (n = 20, respectively) were identified by prospective surveillance during a 5-yr period from 1987-1991. Each group of ICU cases wa...
Colonization of the digestive tract has been supposed to be the source of many hospital-acquired infections, especially nosocomial pneumonia. To assess the relationship between oropharyngeal and gastric colonization and subsequent occurrence of nosocomial pneumonia, we prospectively studied 86 ventilated, intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Oropharyngeal or gastric colonizations were detected a...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact that the implementation of therapeutic guidelines has on the empirical treatment of nosocomial pneumonia. METHODS A clinical trial, using historical controls and involving current ICU patients who had acquired nosocomial pneumonia, was carried out from June of 2002 to June of 2003. All were treated according to therapeutic guidelines developed by the Commissio...
INTRODUCTION Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequently causes nosocomial pneumonia and is associated with poor outcome. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence and clinical outcome of nosocomial pneumonia caused by serotype-specific P. aeruginosa in critically ill patients under appropriate antimicrobial therapy management. METHODS A retrospective, non-interventional epidemiological mu...
