В отечественной и зарубежной специализированной литературе отсутствуют исследования, посвященные изучению факторов риска развития неблагоприятного исхода у пациентов старшей возрастной группы с инсультассоциированной нозокомиальной пневмонией. Цель исследования - изучение факторов риска развития неблагоприятного клинического исхода у пациентов пожилого и старческого возраста с нозокомиальной пневмонией на фоне ОНМК. В исследование были включены 247 пациентов пожилого и старческого возраста (139 мужчин, 108 женщин, средний возраст - 74,1±6,3 года), госпитализированных с признаками ОНМК по ишемическому или геморрагическому типу. Согласно модели бинарной логистической регрессии, статистически значимо ассоциированы с развитием неблагоприятного исхода у изучаемой группы респондентов следующие параметры: возраст свыше 75 лет (p=0,011), степень инвалидизации по шкале mRS 3 (р=0,009), а также уровень С-РБ >100 мг/л (р=0,023) и мочевины >7 ммоль/л (р=0,044). Для снижения частоты встречаемости неблагоприятного клинического исхода у пациентов старшей возрастной группы с инсульт-ассоциированной нозокомиальной пневмонией необходимо верифицировать перечисленные выше клинико-лабораторные параметры на ранних этапах госпитализации. In the domestic and foreign specialized literature, there are no studies devoted to the study of risk factors of mortality in the older age patients with stroke-associated nosocomial pneumonia. The purpose of the study was to study the risk factors of adverse clinical outcomes in elderly and senile patients with stroke-associated nosocomial pneumonia. The study included 247 elderly and senile patients (139 men, 108 women, mean age - 74,1±6,3 years) who were hospitalized with signs of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. According to the binary logistic regression model, the following parameters are statistically significantly associated with adverse clinical outcomes in the studied group of respondents: age over 75 years (p=0.011), degree of disability according to mRS ≥3 (p=0,009), and C-reactive protein levels over 100 mg/l (p=0,023) and urea more than 7 mmol/l (p=0,044). In order to reduce the incidence of adverse clinical outcomes in patients of the older age group with stroke-associated nosocomial pneumonia, it is necessary to verify the above clinical and laboratory parameters at the early stages of hospitalization.

Objective We aimed to examine the risk factors and prognosis of nosocomial pneumonia (NP) during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methods We retrospectively analyzed data of patients who received ECMO at the Affiliated Hangzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January 2013 and August 2019. The primary outcome was the survival-to-discharge rate. Results Sixty-nine patients who received ECMO were enrolled, median age 42 years and 26 (37.7%) women; 14 (20.3%) patients developed NP. The NP incidence was 24.7/1000 ECMO days. Patients with NP had a higher proportion receiving veno-venous (VV) ECMO (50% vs. 7.3%); longer ECMO support duration (276 vs. 140 hours), longer ventilator support duration before ECMO weaning (14.5 vs. 6 days), lower ECMO weaning success rate (50.0% vs. 81.8%), and lower survival-to-discharge rate (28.6% vs. 72.7%) than patients without NP. Multivariable analysis showed independent risk factors that predicted NP during ECMO were ventilator support duration before ECMO weaning (odds ratio [OR] = 1.288; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.111–1.494) and VV ECMO mode (OR = 10.970; 95% CI: 1.758–68.467). Conclusion NP during ECMO was associated with ventilator support duration before ECMO weaning and VV ECMO mode. Clinicians should shorten the respiratory support duration for patients undergoing ECMO to prevent NP.

The aim of the work. To analyze the prevalence of nosocomial pneumonias (NP) in surgical and therapeutic departments and determine the nurses’ knowledge on the problem of preventing hospital pneumonia. Materials and Methods. In order to determine the nurses’ level of knowledge on the problems of preventing nosocomial pneumonia, a questionnaire was developed and applied, which included 20 questions with answers. Results and Discussion. The prevalence of hospital pneumonia in the departments of the therapeutic and surgical profiles is high. The incidence of NP in the surgical department is predominant in males, among the risk factors in which tobacco smoking prevails. In females with NP, the main etiological factors include poor nutrition and obesity. Comparing the level of nurses’ knowledge in therapeutic and surgical departments it was found that nurses of surgical department have shown better knowledge of NP identifying and epidemiology. Nursing stuff of both profiles has poor knowledge about pathogens of NP. The most problematic for nurses of both departments is the issue of preventing NP in case of various surgical interventions during preoperative period. Conclusions. The results of the surveys with this questionnaire can be used to focus educational programs on NP prevention.

OBJECTIVETo describe and compare the mortality associated with nosocomial pneumonia due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa-NP) according to pneumonia classification (community-onset pneumonia [COP], hospital-acquired pneumonia [(HAP], and ventilator-associated pneumonia [VAP]).DESIGNWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults with Pa-NP. We compared mortality for Pa-NP among patients with COP, HAP, and VAP and used logistic regression to identify risk factors for hospital mortality and inappropriate initial antibiotic therapy (IIAT).SETTINGTwelve acute care hospitals in 5 countries (United States, 3; France, 2; Germany, 2; Italy, 2; and Spain, 3).PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTSA total of 742 patients with Pa-NP.RESULTSHospital mortality was greater for those with VAP (41.9%) and HAP (40.1%) compared with COP (24.5%) (P<.001). In multivariate analyses, independent predictors of hospital mortality differed by pneumonia classification (COP: need for mechanical ventilation and intensive care; HAP: multidrug-resistant isolate; VAP: IIAT, increasing age, increasing Charlson comorbidity score, bacteremia, and use of vasopressors). Presence of multidrug resistance was identified as an independent predictor of IIAT for patients with COP and HAP, whereas recent antibiotic administration was protective in patients with VAP.CONCLUSIONSAmong patients with Pa-NP, pneumonia classification identified patients with different risks for hospital mortality. Specific risk factors for hospital mortality also differed by pneumonia classification and multidrug resistance appeared to be an important risk factor for IIAT. These findings suggest that pneumonia classification for P. aeruginosa identifies patients with different mortality risks and specific risk factors for outcome and IIAT.Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2015;36(10):1190–1197
