[A retrospective analysis of clinical characteristics and prognostic factors for 152 cases of bloodstream infection].

To understand the clinical characteristics of bloodstream infection and the main risk factors affecting clinical prognosis, providing a reference for clinical prevention and control of bloodstream infection. In this study, the clinical data of 152 patients with bloodstream infection admitted to Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed by reviewing the electronic medical record system, including underlying diseases, clinical characteristics, risk factors, and bacterial resistance. Statistical methods such as Chi-Squared Test and Test were used to analyze the related risk factors that may affect the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with and methicillin-resistant (MRSA) bloodstream infection, then the variables with <0.05 in univariate analysis were included in the multivariate logistic regression model to analyze the independent risk factors of poor prognosis. The results showed among 152 patients with bloodstream infection, 50 patients (32.89%) were infected with MRSA. In comparison, 102 patients (67.11%) were infected with methicillin-sensitive (MSSA). Except for rifampicin, the resistance rate of MRSA to commonly used antibiotics was all higher than that of MSSA, and the difference was statistically significant (Chi-square values were 8.272, 11.972, 4.998, 4.776, respectively;all values are less than 0.05). Strains resistant to vancomycin, linezolid, and quinupristin/dalfopristin were not found. In the MRSA group, indwelling catheter and drainage tube, carbapenems, and β-lactamase inhibitor treatment were significantly higher than the MSSA group. The difference was statistically significant (<0.05). The incidence of poor prognosis of bloodstream infection in the MRSA group was higher than that in the MSSA group (34.00% 13.73%), and the difference was statistically significant (=8.495, <0.05). No independent risk factors associated with poor prognosis were found in the included patients with MRSA bloodstream infection.Multivariate Logistic regression model analysis showed that solid malignant tumors (=13.576, 95%: 3.352-54.977, <0.05), mechanical ventilation (=7.468, 95%: 1.398-39.884, <0.05) were the most important independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with bloodstream infection. In summary, the poor prognosis rate of MRSA bloodstream infection is higher than that of MSSA. The clinical evaluation of related risk factors should be strengthened, targeted prevention and control interventions should be taken to improve the prognosis of patients with bloodstream infection, and the use of antibiotics should be rational and standardized, to control bacterial infection and drug resistance effectively
