Abstract:

Objective

To analyze the factors of hospital infection for patients treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO).

Methods

The clinical data on hospital infection of patients undergoing ECMO support between January 2009 and March 2014 in Zhongshan People's Hospital of Guangdong Province were collected and retrospectively analyzed.

Results

There were 20 cases of hospital infection among 75 cases, with the infection rate of 26.7%. A total of 58 strains of pathogen were isolated, among which 43(74.1%) were Gram-negative and 15(25.9%) were Gram-positive. Acinetobacter baumannii(21 strains, 36.2%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa(18 strains, 31.0%) and coagulase-negative Staphylococci(11 strains, 20.0%) dominated multi-resistant strains. The mean hospitalization duration in infection group was significantly longer than that in non-infection group (36.5 d vs 7.0 d, Z=-2.090, P<0.05). The percent of patients with ECMO support time>48 h in infection group was 95.0%, and was significantly longer than that in non-infection group(52.7%)(χ2=11.375, P=0.001). Extended ECMO support increased the length of hospital stay, but did not increase the mortality. High levels of lactic acid increased the mortality of patients (Z =-2.598, P < 0.05).

Conclusions

Infection secondary to ECMO support is significantly related to hospital stay and ECMO support time. The hospital should take preventive measures to reduce the infection secondary to ECMO.
