• W3033528229 abstract "<h3>Objectives:</h3> To assess the incidence of infection following various cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt procedures among patients with hydrocephalus and related conditions, based on the age of the patient, and to determine the types of pathogens responsible for shunt infections. <h3>Methods:</h3> This retrospective single center study reviewed the records of patients with culture-confirmed CSF shunt infection diagnosed between January 2012 and December 2017. Cases without central nervous system imaging investigations were excluded. <h3>Results:</h3> The incidence rate of shunt-related infections was 32.2%. Among the 189 patients whose records were included, <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> (47.5%) and <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> (18%) were the most common causative organisms. The incidence of postoperative infection was higher among those who underwent external ventricular drain procedures (65%) than among those who underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt procedures (24%). There were no intraoperative deaths. However, the postoperative death rate was 12.2% during hospital stay (mean duration = 9 days); 2% of these deaths occurred after shunt removal. <h3>Conclusion:</h3> The incidence of infections after CSF shunt procedures was high in our tertiary academic hospital during the study period, compared to those reported in similar clinical settings and before developing a detailed standardized protocol for infection control. Although gram-negative organisms were the most prevalent cause of CSF infections, <i>S. epidermidis</i> (a gram-positive organism) was the most commonly encountered causative agent. Shunt protocols should be implemented to address perioperative shortcomings and to reduce overall mortality and morbidity." @default.
