Abstract:
With the popularization of transplantation technology, an increasing number of end-stage organ failure patients are undergoing transplantation surgery, and most of these patients need further monitoring and treatment in the department of critical care medicine. Due to immune suppression in transplant patients, the risk of hospital acquired infection is significantly increased. Therefore, for these patients, it is necessary to implement more stringent bundled management measures for the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia, catheter-related bloodstream infections, catheter-related urinary tract infections, and surgical site infections. At the same time, stricter institutional and personnel management is needed. This article, taking into account the guideline recommendations and the experience of our center, focuses on the prevention of hospital acquired infection in organ transplant patients, in order to provide reference for clinical practice of critical care medicine.
