The current understanding of arterial-catheter related bloodstream infection

导管相关性血流感染(CRBSI)是重症加强治疗病房(ICU)中常见的严重感染之一,可增加患者的病死率,延长住院时间,增加住院费用.在CRBSI中,动脉导管相关性血流感染(AC-BSI)常被忽视或低估,目前的报道显示,AC-BSI的发生率接近甚至不低于中心静脉导管相关性血流感染(CVC-BSI).一旦怀疑AC-BSI,应在留取相关培养物培养后立即拔出动脉导管,并根据患者的情况实施抗感染治疗;预防是减少AC-BSI的关键.本文作者从AC-BSI的流行病学、病原学及发病机制、危险因素、诊断、治疗和预防等方面的进展进行综述,以期为临床处理提供帮助.Catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) is one of the common severe infections in intensive care unit (ICU),which tends to increase the mortality of patients,the length of hospital stay and the cost of hospitalization.Arterial catheter-related bloodstream infection (AC-BSI) is often overlooked or underestimated.Some studies pointed out that the incidence of AC-BSI is close to or even higher than central venous catheter related bloodstream infection (CVC-BSI),which plays an important role in catheter-related infections.Once AC-BSI is suspected,arterial catheter should be removed immediately after bacterial culture and antibiotics should be prescribed according to severities of patients.Prevention is the key to reduce AC-BSI.The research progress of epidemiology,etiology,pathogenesis,risk factors,diagnosis,treatment and prevention of AC-BSI was reviewed to facilitate the clinical decision.国家临床重点专科建设项目(2011-872)National Clinical Key Specialty Construction Project中国科技核心期刊(ISTIC)中国科学引文数据库(CSCD)5478-4802
