Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the risk factors for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) bloodstream infection, and to provide evidence-based basis for the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infection.
METHODS The databases of CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science and Cochrane Library were searched by the combination of manual and literature tracking. Relevant literatures ranged from the establishment of the database to Aug. 1, 2024 were screened, risk factors were collected, and quality evaluation was performed. Meta-analysis was performed by Revman5.4 and Stata17 software, and the heterogeneity and sensitivity were verified.
RESULTS This study finally included 17 articles (11 Chinese and 6 English), involving a total of 3275 samples. Meta-analysis showed that 10 risk factors were associated with CRAB bloodstream infection: use of carbapenems, admission to intensive care unit (ICU), combined with septic shock, invasive mechanical ventilation, indwelling urinary, gastrointestinal and deep venous catheterization, hypoproteinemia, use of hormones before onset of infection and male.
CONCLUSION Targeted intervention strategies in clinical practice can be formulated for the 10 risk factors in this study to prevent and reduce the occurrence of CRAB bloodstream infection.
