BACKGROUND: Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) significantly affect patient morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Sterilization and supply centers (SSCs) are crucial in preventing these infections. This study evaluates the impact of implementing cleaning quality traceability systems in SSCs on infection control.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted in five hospitals, examining compliance with cleaning protocols, HAI incidence rates, and operational efficiency before and after implementing traceability systems. Key outcomes included changes in compliance rates and the incidence of HAIs, including surgical site infections (SSIs) and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs).
RESULTS: Compliance with cleaning protocols improved from 78.5 to 96.4% after implementing the traceability systems. This enhancement correlated with a 42.6% reduction in HAI rates, decreasing from 5.4 to 3.1 per 1,000 patient days (p < 0.01). Specifically, SSIs decreased from 1.8 to 1.0, and CAUTIs from 1.5 to 0.9 per 1,000 patient days. Operational data showed minimal downtime for the systems, with issues resolved promptly.
CONCLUSION: The introduction of cleaning quality traceability systems in SSCs is significantly associated with increased protocol compliance and a reduction in HAI rates. These systems are associated with enhanced infection control measures, which are in turn associated with improved patient outcomes and greater efficiency in hospital operations.
