Objective: To explore the current infection rate among inpatients in a tertiary hospital in 2023, to understand the infection situation in the hospital, and to provide a reliable basis for carrying out further hospital infection prevention and control and other work. Methods: Inpatients of a tertiary hospital on a certain date in 2023 were selected, and the survey data were extracted with the Apricot Grove real-time monitoring system using a combination of questionnaires and medical record data. Results: The infection rate was 12.63%, of which the hospital infection rate was 2.25% and the community infection rate was 10.38%. Lower respiratory tract infections accounted for 77.28% of the community infections, and lower respiratory tract infections accounted for 73.44% of the cases of hospital infections, with a total of 44 strains of pathogens isolated from hospital infections, and a total of 218 strains of pathogens isolated from community infections. The total application rate of antimicrobial drugs was 31.67%, the proportion of prophylactic drugs in the whole hospital was 9.66%, the proportion of therapeutic drugs was 90.33%, and the rate of bacterial culture delivery was 39.18%. Conclusion: The infection rate survey truly reflects the dynamics of infection in this hospital, makes clearer the key departments and key links of hospital infection prevention and control, further provides the basis for targeted infection control, and improves the knowledge and execution of hospital infection prevention and control by medical staff.
