目的1990年1月至1997年9月,在马斯特里赫特大学医院应用皮下脑室导管储液囊和(或)脑室腹腔引流治疗70例6岁以下脑积水患者。结果21例(30%)患者发生了一次或多次分流道感染,每次手术的感染率为15.2%。对于植入的储液囊或引流管,感染率分别为15.9%和16.4%。研究组包括39名(55.7%)早产儿(
Objective In the period January 1990 to September 1997, 70 patients, aged under 6 years were treated for hydrocephalus with a subcutaneous ventricular catheter reservoir and/or a ventriculoperitoneal drain at the University Hospital of Maastricht.Methods By means of a retrospective chart analysis, the number of shunt infections and related risk factors were analyzed.Results Twenty-one patients (30%) developed one or more infections, with an infection rate of 15.2% per surgical event. For an implanted reservoir or drain, the infection rates were 15.9 and 16.4%, respectively. The study group consisted of 39 (55.7%) preterm infants (
