Characteristics and treatment of wound infection of Wenchuan earthquake conveying patients

Objective To study the characteristics and treatment of wound infection on Wenchuan earthquake conveying patients.Methods Totals of 84 cases of Wenchuan earthquake patients in Tongji hospital were compared with other conveying patients in Hubei province and un-conveying patients in Sichuan province,such as general status,wound infection,bacteria cultures and drug susceptibility,treatment effect and so on.Results The major injury position was body surface,extremity and pelvis,head and neck.Major infection position were 4 cases of extremity and pelvis,2 cases of head and face,1 case of chest,and 1 case of body surface.And 380 cases of pathogen from four centers were tested:relevance rate was 75.79％,in which Gpathogen infection rate was 61.35％.Mixed infection rates of conveying patients was significantly higher than that of un-conveying patients(36.36％ vs 50.00％ ; x2 =21.40,P ＜ 0.01).Among 380 pathogen,there were 56 numbers of escherichia coli(17.18％),44 numbers of enterobacter cloacae(13.50％),43 numbers of coagulase negative staphylococci(13.19％),and they were resisted for 37.06％ drug.Conclusions Regions,injury state and emergency treatment are the influencing factors of infection situation of earthquake patients,and the conveying patients have higher mixed infection rates and drug resistance rates.
