INTRODUCTION
Nosocomial infections (NI) is a
bacterial infection that patients suffer
during hospitalization, which is one of the
main causes of morbidity and mortality for
patients in hospitals around the world [2].
NI is usually caused by antibiotic-resistant
bacteria, which makes it difficult to treat,
prolong hospital stay, increase the risk of
death and the cost of treatment.
In the European Union, the annual
mortality rate from infections with resistant
strains is 25,000 and in the United States
over 63,000. According to a survey conducted
by the WHO in 55 hospitals in 14 countries,
the average NI rate was 8.7% wheres
West Mediterranean: 11.8%; Southeast
Asia: 10.0%; Europe: 7.7% and Western
Pacific 9.0%, among of which pneumonia
accounts for the highest rate, followed by
septicemia, surgical site infections and
urinary tract infections.
These infections account for 80% of all
cases of NI and causes huge economic
losses including increased cost of
treatment and reduced labor. Each year,
it costs of the US 5.7 billion for patient care,
much higher than the cost of influenza
prevention [3].

Nosocomial infection at intensive care
unit (ICU) is twice or 3 times higher than
other departments in the hospital [4].
In Vietnam, there is no research on NI in
ICU wards of NI, yet adequate analysis of
risk factors related to NI has been made
to provide appropriate intervention.
This study aims: To describe some of
the risk factors associated with NI in the
ICU of the National Hospital for Tropical
Diseases (2011 - 2012), as a scientific basis
for interventions.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS
1. Subjects, location, time.
* Subjects:
Patients who were treated in ICU of
National Hospital for Tropical Diseases
from 01 - 1 - 2011 to 31 - 12 - 2012.
* Location: ICU of National Hospital for
Tropical Diseases.
* Time: January 1st 2011 - December
31st 2012.
2. Methods.
* Research design:
A prospective, case-control analysis of
relacted factors of NI in ICU, the National
Hospital for Tropical Diseases.
* Sample size and sampling method:
- Sample size:
Total sample size of patients with NI in
ICU who had treatment in period from
January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012.
- Sampling method:
Select randomly, continuous pattern.
All patients eligible for ICU admission will
be selected.
- Inclusion criteria:
Patients were treated in the ICU at
least than 48 hours.
- Exclusion criteria:
Patients who had NI before admission to
the ICU or have manifestations of NI
within the first 48 hours since admission
to the ICU.
* Research variables and methods of
data collection:
- Research variables:
+ Major variables:
Case definition: The NI standard is
based on the WHO 2002 standard [1].
Time is calculated from 48 hours after
entering Emergency-Intensive Care Department
to 48 hours after leaving Emergency-
Intensive Care Department.
. Secondary variables:
. Duration of treatment at ICU: from
hospitalization to the discharge of Emergency-
Intensive Care Department.
. The entire duration of treatment: the
time patient were treated in hospital.
- Independent variables:
+ Invasive intervention:
Intubation & mechanical ventilation,
nasal continuous positive airway pressure,
peripheral venous catheterization, central
venous catheterization, urinary catheterization,

gastroenteric tube feeding. Other interventions:
drainage of pleural cavity, peritoneal cavity,
aerosol, hemodialysis
. Drug treatment:
Antibiotics: When antibiotics are used,
there is evidence of bacterial infection in
patients.
Other drugs: Corticosteroids, H2 blockers,
vasopressors and inotropes (dopamine
and dobutamine), macromolecules, muscle
relaxants (diazepam and phenobarbital)
are included when administered to patients
for a minimum of 24 hours.
. Blood transfusion: When a patient
receives blood transfusions and blood
products.
. Parenteral nutrition: When the patient
is fed with a solution containing protein or
fat for at least 24 hours.
. Time to place the instruments, or use
the drug before NI: From the time of
intervention until the detection of NI.
If the patient does not have NI, it will be
calculated from the time of placing or
using the drug until the end of the
intervention or when leaving the ICU.
* Data collection:
- Initial evaluation of the patient:
Patients eligible for the study were
examined, performed diagnostic tests and
assessed their status, recorded gender,
age, comorbidity, if any, date of entry. The
initial information will be filled in the form.
- Patient monitoring and evaluation:
All patients were taken care, monitored
and treated according to the hospital regimen
in accordance with the condition and under
the same control conditions of the NI.
Patient interventions and treatments
were documented on the date and time of
use. Monitor and evaluate the NI related
signs of each position.
- Urinary catheterization: Test urine
every 72 hours until urinary catheters
were removed, when there is urine nitrite (+)
and/or white blood cell (+), it was
suspected of urinary tract infection.
- Endotracheal intubation: When there
is clinical febrile or changes in sputum or
crackles lung sound, chest X-ray is
indicated.
- Intravenous catheter insertion: When
there is a change in the injection site right
away, or manifestation of the infectious
disease syndrome, carry out tests to
identify infections.
- Tests to identify cases:
Blood culture is done when the patient
shows signs of infection:
+ There are 2 of the following 4 criteria:
fever > 38.50C; rapid pulse; rapid breathing;
neutropenia increases or decreases with
age or rate neutrophil > 10%.
+ Evidence of infection or suspected
by examination, test. Blood is collected
from peripheral blood at a volume of
1 - 2 mL with sterile syringe, inserted into
blood culture bottle BactecPeds plus/F and
cultured with automatic BACTEC 9420.
- Get a chest X-ray, obtain sputum by
nasotracheal aspiration method (NTA) or
use the endotracheal tube if the patient is

intubated, when the patient have such
symptoms as: cough, increased sputum,
purulent sputum, hear crackles lung sound.
Sputum suction device is a specialized
sterile one designed specifically for the nose
and trachea or suctioned through the
endotracheal tube. Evaluate the quality of the
specimen based on the Bartlett standard.
- Urine culture was performed on the
3rd day after urinary catheterization and
repeated when having symptoms: Dysuria,
urinary retention, pain in pubic bone, or
cloudy urine; if urinary catheters were not
available, urine culture should be performed
when there are symptoms: dysuria, urinary
retention, pain in pubic bone, or leucocyte
ornitrite in the urinalysis. Urine was
obtained from a sterile syringe from the
collecting tube of the urine vesicle if the
urinary catheter was placed. A specimen
was considered positive when there is at
least 105 CFU/mm3.
- Culture pus from wounds and secretions
from drainage pipes to find pathogens.
Pus, fluid, and wound secretions are
removed by using sterile syringes or
sterile sticks and then placed in sterile
vials and sent to the laboratory. The
specimens are then cultured to find the
bacteria on aerobic and fungal environments
if suspected of fungus.
Interpretation of results: If an agent is
isolated, it wil be considered as the
cause of the disease. In the case of
specimens cultured from two or more
agents, the dominant agent will be
considerd as the cause of the infection.
In cases where the results are negative
but there are still doubts, they might be
cultured again.
- Case definition and questionnaire
completion:
Patients were monitored for 48 hours
after leaving the ICU, if there were NI
symptoms during this period, it was also
referred to as NI in the ICU. Case
definition was in accordance with the
WHO 2002 standard. The patient's final
result was evaluated until discharge,
total time in the ICU, the length of
hospital stay and the cost of treatment
were recorded.
Complete the questionnaire when the
patient left the ICU within 48 hours. Check
the questionnaire, compared with the medical
record when discharged.
* Data analysis:
Data were processed statistically by
SPSS 22.0 software.
Comparison and correlation: Comparing
the exposure factors in two groups with NI
and non-NI: Using t-test when comparing
two means, test χ2 compares two ratios
and Fisher's test compares two ratios
have small samples; considered significance
with p < 0.05 for two-sided.
Determination of risk factors: Risk
factors were analyzed by logistic regression.
Significant risk factors in logistic regression
analysis will have a corresponding regression
coefficient β.

DISCUSSION
Nosocominal infections in ICU are often
the highest in most hospitals [3].
This situation is explained by the fact
that in the ICU area more and more
patients are at high risk of developing
high levels of NI, such as severe disease,
requiring multiple invasive procedures.
Therefore, prevention of the NI is very
important in ICU ward. For effective
prevention, it is important to identify risk
factors, on the basis of which measures to
prevent and control NI well suited.
Multivariate analysis results of each
type of NI indicate that the risk factor for
pneumonia is intubation with endotracheal
time more than 5 days; the risk factor for
hospital sepsis is intravenous central venous
catheterization, maintenance of intravenous
central venous catheterization more than
3 days and intravenous exposure; the risk
factors for urinary tract infection are urinary
catheterization and urinary retention time
more than 3 days.
Some domestic and foreign authors’
findings: Nguyen Viet Hung et al (2012)
reported a relationship between NI and
urinary done (OR = 3.5, p < 0.01), respiratory
ventilation (OR = 2.9, p < 0.05) [4].
This result was consistent with the
results from the US hospital surveillance
statistics of 83% of bacterial pneumonia
associated with artificial ventilation, 97%
of urinary tract infections occured in
patients with urinary catheterization and
87% sepsis occurred in patients receiving
central venous catheters [4].
At the ICU of National Hospital for
Tropical Diseases, most patients suffer
from serious diseases and have undergone
many invasive procedures such as respiratory
ventilation, intravenous central venous
catheter, urethral catheter... These results
show that there needs to focus resources
facilities on control of NI in the ICU area
of the hospital, particularly the need for
increased sterilization practice in the care
of patients with invasive interventions
involving the airway, blood vessels and
urinary tract.
CONCLUSSION
Invasive interventions were associated
with NI including intubation, respiratory
ventilation, central venous catheterization,
arterial catheterization and urinary sonde.
There was a correlation between the duration
of treatment and the risk of NI. Patients
hospitalized for 10 - 15 days have a
higher risk of NI.
Risk factors for hospital pneumonia
was endotracheal intubation more than
5 days; the risk factors for hospital sepsis
were central venous catheterization for
3 days and intravenous exposures; the
risk factor for urinary tract infection was
the duration of the urinary catheter more
than 3 days.
