【 摘 要 】

Objective This study conducts a meta-analysis of clinical outcomes of nosocomial infection in adult patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and systematically evaluates clinical epidemiological characteristics. Methods Document retrieval strategies were determined, and all adult patients treated by ECMO were included. The prevalence, incidence, mortality, ECMO use time, intensive care unit (ICU) stay time, hospital stay time, and risk factors of nosocomial infection were systematically evaluated. Subsequently, a meta-analysis of the impact of nosocomial infection on risk of in-hospital mortality was conducted. Results A total of 25 retrospective studies were included, and 19 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The prevalence of nosocomial infection was 8.8–64.0%, incidence was 1.7–85.4‰ (per 1,000 ECMO days), and in-hospital mortality was 31.5–75.4%. The duration of ECMO usage and length of ICU stay were longer for infected patients. Compared with non-infected patients, the meta-analysis revealed that nosocomial infection increased the relative risk of death of adult patients receiving ECMO by 32%. The risk factors included the duration of ECMO usage and disease severity score. Conclusions Adult patients treated by ECMO have high prevalence of nosocomial infection. In addition, their ECMO use time and ICU stays are longer. Nosocomial infection significantly increases the relative risk of in-hospital mortality.
