We describe the incidence rates of home healthcare-associated infections (HHAIs) in a pediatric home healthcare service (PHHCS). The overall incidence density of HHAIs was 11.1 infections per 1,000 patient-days. Average incidence density of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) was 6.8 per 1,000 ventilator-days. Strategies for control of VAP should be prioritized in PHHCSs.
我们描述了儿科家庭医疗保健服务(PHHCS)中家庭医疗保健相关感染(HHAI)的发生率。HHAI 的总发生率密度为每 1000 个患者日 11.1 例感染。呼吸机相关性肺炎(VAP)的平均发生率密度为每 1000 个呼吸机日 6.8 例。PHHCS 应优先采取控制 VAP 的策略。
