Study on Direct Economic Loss of Nosocomial Infection in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage After Operation
Objective To study the direct economic loss caused by nosocomial infection in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage after operation,so as to provide theoretical basis for prevention and control of nosocomial infection.Methods A I:l case-control study was conducted to select 20 patients with postoperative nosocomial infection in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage from January 2020 to December 2021 in a tertiary general hospital as the case group,and 20 patients without postoperative infection as the control group.The direct economic losses and hospitalization time were compared between the two groups.Results Among the 20 patients in the case group,the hospital infection was mainly lower respiratory tract infection,followed by central nervous system infection and urinary tract infection.The number of hospitalization days in the case group was 17.50(15.75,20.00)d,which was longer than 12.00(10.00,13.00)d in the control group(P<0.05).Except for the operation cost,the hospitalization expenses of other types in the case group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the number of hospitalization days and hospitalization expenses between the case group and the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Postoperative nosocomial infection in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage can prolong the length of hospital stay and increase the total cost of hospitalization.Therefore,effective infection control measures should be taken to reduce the incidence of nosocomial infection and reduce the economic burden of patients.
