- 臨床試験分析 臨床試験分析について
背景:
- 赤血球 (RBC) 輸血の実践と医療関連感染症 (HAI) の関係については,さらなる明確化が必要である.
- 輸血値と白血球減少が感染リスクに与える影響を理解することは,患者の安全にとって極めて重要です.
研究 の 目的:
- 制限的対リベラルRBC輸血戦略とHAIを発症するリスクとの関連性を調査する.
- この関連が白血球減少の赤血球から独立しているかどうかを判断する.
主な方法:
- 制限的およびリベラルな赤血球輸血戦略を比較したランダム化臨床試験の体系的なレビューとメタ解析.
- 複数のデータベース (MEDLINE,EMBASEなど) で検索しました. 関連する試験については,2014年1月までとなります.
- プールされたリスク比率と感染の絶対リスクは,ランダム効果モデルを使用して計算されました.
主要な成果:
- 制限的な赤血球輸血戦略は,深刻な感染症のリスクが著しく低下した (リスク比 (RR) = 0.82;95%CI,0.72-0.95).
- 1つの重症感染症を予防するために,制限的な戦略で治療する (NNT) 必要な人数は38人でした.
- 制限戦略による感染リスクの低下は,白血球量が減少した血液製品でも観察され,特に整形外科の患者およびセプシス患者で顕著でした.
結論:
- 制限的な赤血球輸血戦略は,入院患者におけるHAIの発生率の低下と関連しています.
- 制限的な輸血プロトコルの実施は,HAI率を減らすための効果的な方法かもしれません.

Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.

Blood transfusion is a therapeutic measure to restore the blood volume after extensive blood loss due to an accident or a medical procedure. Blood transfusion involves drawing a certain amount of blood from a suitable donor and infusing it into the recipient.
History
The history of blood transfusion dates back to the 17th century, when early attempts were made in animals. In 1818 James Blundell, a British doctor, performed the first successful human blood transfusion. Later in 1900, Karl...

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) occur in a healthcare facility while a person receives care for another ailment. This category also includes work-related infections among healthcare staff.
HAIs significantly increase the cost of health care. Extended stays in healthcare institutions, increased disability, increased costs of medications, including specialized antibiotics, and prolonged recovery times add to the patient's expenses and the healthcare institution and funding bodies.

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
14.1K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...
