SSI不仅会对患者的身体健康产生很大的影响,也会增加医院额外的医疗费用支出。以下为美国医院SSI对这两方面所产生的影响。
在腹部手术当中,每20例患者中就有3例SSI高发生率的风险。
研究表明,在腹部手术当中,每20例患者中就有3例SSI高发生率的风险[1-3]。
de Lissovoy G[4]等人对患者的住院天数进行调查分析,结果发现SSI患者平均住院天数为15天,无SSI患者平均住院天数为8天。SSI患者再次入院率为27.8%,无SSI患者再次入院率为6.8%[5]。SSI患者ICU入住率为29%,无SSI患者ICU入住率为18%,相较于无SSI患者,SSI患者死亡风险增加了2倍[6]。
每年因SSI的花费为100亿美元 每例SSI患者额外费用19000美元 每个医院每年支付500万美元的罚款 医院负面影响
美国疾病预防控制中心报道,每年因为SSI支出的医疗费用100亿美元[7];根据2009年和2011年的数据分析,每例SSI患者因SSI额外的医疗费用支出为19000美元[5,8];每个医院由于SSI每年需要支付500万美元的罚款[9]。不仅仅是这些额外医疗费用的支出,SSI还会给医院带来较大的负面影响。
