Application of clinical infection pathway control based on evidence-based support in preventing respiratory tract infections in ICU patients after tracheostomy
Objective To explore the application effect of infection pathway control based on evidence-based support in preventing respiratory tract infection in ICU patients after tracheotomy.Methods A total of 236 ICU patients undergoing tracheotomy in our hospital were enrolled between January 2020 and December 2022.According to admission time,they were divided into a control group and a study group,118 in each group.The control group was given routine intervention.The study group was given infection pathway control intervention based on evidence-based support.After intervention,ICU stay status such as mechanical ventilation time and average hospitalization time,scores of nursing quality,nursing satisfaction of family members and complications were compared between the two groups.Results After intervention,the mechanical ventilation time and average stay time in ICU in the study group were shorter than those in the control group,and the scores of nursing quality were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The total incidence of complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group,and nursing satisfaction of family members was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions The infection pathway control based on evidence-based support can better reduce the incidence of postoperative respiratory tract infection and other complications.It also improves the nursing quality,respiratory quality and clinical nursing satisfaction.
