We have investigated prospectively the incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI) in 5320 orthopaedic patients. There were 74 UTIs (1.39%). Enterobacteriaceae was the most frequent etiological agent. Each infection increased the length of stay in hospital by more than 8 days. Statistically independent risk factors for the development of urinary infection were a preoperative stay of more than 4 days, inadequate preoperative preventive measures, central venous catheterization and urinary catheterization. Sex, age, or type of surgery had no statistical influence on the development of infection.
我们对5320例骨科患者的尿路感染(UTI)发生率进行了前瞻性研究。共有74例UTI(1.39%)。肠杆菌科是最常见的病原体。每次感染使住院时间延长超过8天。发生尿路感染的统计学独立危险因素为术前住院时间超过4天、术前预防措施不足、中心静脉置管和导尿。性别、年龄或手术类型对感染的发生无统计学影响。
