Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Multi-drug resistant organisms (MDRO) infection after liver transplantation seriously affects the survival and mortality of patients after liver transplantation. High failure in MDRO infection treatment catches much attention.
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the risk factors for MDRO infection after liver transplantation. 
METHODS: A prospective cohort study was used to collect and analyze the clinical data of 114 patients after liver transplantation. There were 28 cases of MDRO infection, and 86 cases of non-MDRO infection. The MDRO infection rate was calculated. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to screen independent risk factors.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The MDRO infection rate after liver transplantation was 24.6%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed the following four factors: prolonged prothrombin time (OR: 3.102, 95% CI (0.066-9.024), P=0.038), ICU retention time ≥ 10 days (OR: 3.745, 95%CI (1.313-10.687), P=0.014), tracheal intubation time ≥ 72 hours (OR: 8.972, 95%CI (1.983-40.582), P=0.004), thoracentesis (OR: 3.564, 95%CI (1.223-10.387), P=0.020). These results imply that prolonged prothrombin time, ICU indwelling time ≥ 10 days, tracheal intubation time ≥ 72 hours and thoracentesis can increase the risk of MDRO infection in patients after liver transplantation.
