| 요약 | Due to current targeted surveillance programs of healthcare associated infections (HAIs), there is a paucity of research on non-device associated urinary tract infections (ND-UTIs), non-device associated pneumonia (ND-pneumonia), and non-device associated bloodstream infections (ND-BSIs). However, limited data that do exist suggest that the proportion of all HAIs that were non-device associated have increased over the last decade. Thus, the purpose of this study was to update current estimates of ND-HAI rates and their frequency relative to device associated infections, assess temporal trends, and identify potential risk factors for ND-HAIs among adult patients hospitalized at the University of North Carolina (UNC) Hospitals between 2013 - 2017. Between 2013 and 2017, the rates of ND-UTIs and ND-pneumonia remained relatively stable, and the rate of ND-BSIs increased. Additionally, ND-UTIs and ND-pneumonia cases represent the majority of infections, with almost 3 in 4 UTIs and pneumonia cases being non-device associated in 2017. One in three BSIs are non-device associated at UNC Hospitals. Females, older adults, peptic ulcer disease, paralysis, immunosuppression, opioid use, TPN, and trauma patients all had a higher risk of ND-UTI. Urinary retention, suprapubic catheters and nephrostomy tubes may also increase patient risk of ND-UTI, although estimates were imprecise. Risk factors for ND-pneumonia included male sex, older age, ICU admission, and chronic bronchitis/emphysema, congestive heart failure, paralysis, and immunosuppression. Finally, risk factors for ND-BSIs included male sex, peptic ulcer disease, paralysis, general anesthesia, opioids, and peripheral venous catheters |
