呼吸机相关肺炎 (VAP) 显著增加了创伤患者的医院费用和住院时间. 预防VAP对于减少发展中国家医疗保健系统和患者的财务负担至关重要.
科学领域:
- 关键护理医学 关键护理医学
- 卫生经济学 卫生经济学
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
背景情况:
- 呼吸机相关肺炎 (VAP) 是重症监护病房中普遍存在的医疗相关感染,特别影响创伤患者.
- VAP对医疗保健成本做出了重大贡献,发展中国家提供的数据有限.
- 了解VAP的经济影响对于资源分配和患者管理至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 确定创伤重症监护室VAP和非VAP患者的发病率,发病率密度和平均逗留时间 (ALOS).
- 通过微成本评估方法评估与VAP和非VAP患者相关的卫生系统成本.
- 提供有关VAP在发展中国家环境中的经济负担的数据.
主要方法:
- 从2021年10月到2022年12月,在创伤重症监护室进行了一项前性研究.
- 收集了患者人口统计,VAP状态,ALOS和资源利用情况的数据.
- 医疗系统成本是使用混合 (自上而下和自下而上) 微成本计算方法计算的.
主要成果:
- 在484名机械通风患者中,47人患有VAP (发病率9.7%,发病密度10.79/1000 MV天).
- 与非VAP患者 (8.2天) 相比,VAP患者的ALOS显著更长 (21天).
- 据估计,医疗系统每张病床每天的医疗费用为25927印度卢比,VAP治疗费用为544467印度卢比,而非VAP患者的医疗费用为207416印度卢比.
结论:
- 对于卫生系统和患者来说,VAP的治疗都会带来巨大的财务成本.
- 实施VAP预防策略至关重要,以减少患者住院时间和相关经济影响.
- 需要进一步的研究和干预,以减轻资源有限的环境中VAP的负担.
