Analysis of PICC Catheter-related Infection Factors and Nursing Countermeasures in Patients with Malignant Tumor
Objective To explore the catheter-related infection factors of peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)in patients with malignant tumors,and to put forward nursing countermeasures.Methods From January 2019 to January 2022,60 patients with malignant tumors who underwent PICC catheterization in Jiamusi Central Hospital were selected as the research objects.According to the occurrence of catheter-related infection,they were divided into infection group(24 patients)and non-infection group(36 patients).The age,gender,number of single catheterization punctures,PICC indwelling time,catheter movement,catheter insertion site and number of chemotherapy were compared between the two groups,and the risk factors of PICC catheter-related infection were analyzed.Results There were statistically significant differences in the number of single catheterization punctures,PICC indwelling time,catheter movement,catheter insertion site,and number of chemotherapy between the infection group and the non-infection group(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic linear regression analysis showed that the number of single catheterization puncture,PICC indwelling time and the number of chemotherapy were independent risk factors for PICC catheter-related infection(P<0.05).Conclusion The risk factors of PICC catheter-related infection in patients with malignant tumors include the number of single catheter punctures,PICC indwelling time,and number of chemotherapy.Clinically,corresponding nursing interventions should be implemented for the above factors to reduce the risk of catheter-related infection.
