To study the organization and practices in nosocomial infection (NI) control in regional and provincial hospitals.
Data were collected by questionnaires answered by chairpersons of infection control committees (ICC) infection control nurses (ICNs) and link nurses in regional and provincial hospitals.
From April to June 2002, sets of questionnaires were sent to all chair persons of regional and provincial hospitals, 120 infection control nurses and 57 link nurses. Of 92 hospitals, 78.3% of chairpersons and all ICNs and link nurses responded. The ICC were chaired by the directors or deputy directors in 26.4% and by doctors in various specialties in the remaining. Among ICNs, 14.2% had never attended a course in infection control and 62.5% had less than 6 years experience. Lack of support from administrators, budget, co-operation from medical personnel and ICN position were the main problems in the IC program.
Nosocomial infection control in regional and provincial hospitals in Thailand needs more support from administrators and more co-operation from medical personnel.
研究地区和省级医院医院感染控制的组织与实践。
通过向地区和省级医院感染控制委员会主席、感染控制护士及联络护士发放问卷来收集数据。
2002年4月至6月,向所有地区和省级医院主席、120名感染控制护士及57名联络护士发放了问卷。在92家医院中,78.3%的主席以及所有感染控制护士和联络护士进行了回复。26.4%的感染控制委员会由院长或副院长主持,其余由各专科医生主持。在感染控制护士中,14.2%从未参加过感染控制课程,62.5%的工作经验少于6年。行政支持不足、预算、医务人员合作以及感染控制护士职位是感染控制项目的主要问题。
泰国地区和省级医院的医院感染控制需要行政部门更多的支持以及医务人员更多的合作。
