这篇综述总结了目前的文献有关感染预防的护理之家人口，包括急性期后护理患者和长期护理居民。每年约有200万例感染，超过三分之一的老年人在这种情况下携带多重耐药微生物。监测、手部卫生、隔离预防措施、居民和员工健康计划、教育和抗生素管理是疗养院感染预防和控制计划的基本要素。本文讨论了新出现的证据表明，互动的多模式捆绑在减少感染和抗菌素耐药性，从而提高安全性和护理质量的老年人在养老院的有用性。
This review summarizes current literature pertaining to infection prevention in nursing home population including post-acute care patients and long-term care residents. Approximately 2 million infections occur each year and more than one-third of older adults harbor multidrug-resistant organisms in this setting. Surveillance, hand hygiene, isolation precautions, resident and employee health programs, education, and antibiotic stewardship are essential elements of infection prevention and control programs in nursing homes. This article discusses emerging evidence suggesting the usefulness of interactive multimodal bundles in reducing infections and antimicrobial resistance, thereby enhancing safety and quality of care for older adults in nursing homes.
