Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) risk adjustment methods for central-line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) only adjust for type of intensive care unit (ICU). This cohort study explored risk factors for CLABSI using 2 comorbidity classification schemes, the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the Chronic Disease Score (CDS). Our study supports the need for additional research into risk factors for CLABSI, including electronically available comorbid conditions.
美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)针对中心静脉导管相关血流感染(CLABSI)的风险调整方法仅针对重症监护病房(ICU)类型进行调整。这项队列研究使用两种合并症分类方案,即查尔森合并症指数(CCI)和慢性病评分(CDS),探讨了CLABSI的风险因素。我们的研究支持有必要对CLABSI的风险因素进行更多研究,包括电子可得的合并症情况。
