Clinical Influence of Nursing Intervention Under FOCUS-Plan-Do-Check-Act Cycle Management Model on Preventing and Controlling Central Line-associated Bloodstream Infections in Patients in ICU.

Central venous catheterization is an invasive procedure that may lead to central line-associated bloodstream infection, affecting the patient's prognosis and recovery. Thus, it is essential to master the right interventions for the prevention and control of central line-associated bloodstream infections. FOCUS-Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle management model, also known as Deming circle management model, is a programmed and scientific management method.We attempted to clarify the impact of nursing intervention on preventing and controlling central line-associated bloodstream infection under the FOCUS- PDCA cycle management model, in order to effectively deplete central line-associated bloodstream infection in each intensive care unit, facilitate early recovery of patients.Our study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of intensive care unit patients before and after implementation of nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model. This study was a retrospective study.This study was performed in the Department of Infection Management, Taihe County People's Hospital.A total of 214 intensive care unit patients with indwelling central venous catheters before implementation of nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model in our hospital in 2021 were selected as the control group. A total of 220 ICU patients with indwelling CVC after nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model in 2022 were included in the experimental group. All patients met the inclusion criteria of patients with CVC puncture catheterization for ≥ 2 days.The control group underwent conventional nursing, including (1) nurses observing aseptic technique; (2) nurses regularly inspected and replaced dressings; (3) nurses timely handled abnormal situations at the puncture site; (4) nurses provided relevant education and psychological counseling to patients and their families. The experimental group adopted nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model on the basis of that of the control group.(1) central venous catheterization puncture status (2) central venous catheterization application status (3) central line-associated bloodstream infection status, and (4) hospitalization status.The one-time success rate of puncture and success rate of puncture in the experimental group exhibited elevation relative to those in the control group (P < .05). The central venous catheterization application rate in the experimental group exhibited depletion relative to that in the control group (P < .05). The daily infection rate of CLABSI in the experimental group exhibited depletion relative to that in the control group, but without statistical significance (P > .05), indicating that nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model had no obvious inhibitory effect on the daily infection rate of CLABSI. The time of central line-associated bloodstream infection occurrence in the experimental group was later than that in the control group (P < .05). The hospitalization time and hospitalization expenses in the experimental group exhibited depletion relative to those in the control group (P < .05).Nursing intervention under the FOCUS-PDCA cycle management model can effectively deplete central line-associated bloodstream infection in each intensive care unit, facilitate early recovery of patients, and shorten hospital stay, which is worthy of promotion. Our study provide a clinical nursing reference for the preventing and controlling central line-associated bloodstream infections in patients in each intensive care unit.
