摘要:

目的: 了解青岛市养老院入住老年人结核分枝杆菌潜伏感染(latent tuberculosis infection,LTBI)情况,分析影响LTBI的相关因素,探讨养老院结核病防控措施及策略。方法: 采用现况调查方法,于2024年6—8月采取单纯随机抽样选取青岛市1个中心城区和1个郊区,根据养老院的规模及配合的意愿,共选取7家养老院的老年人,通过γ-干扰素释放试验、胸部X线摄片开展LTBI筛查;同时,收集调查对象的个人信息、养老院经营管理情况。结果: 共调查425名老年人,LTBI感染率为26.59%(113/425)。单因素分析结果显示,男性老年人LTBI感染率(30.53%,80/262)明显高于女性老年人(20.25%,33/163),差异有统计学意义(χ2=5.450,P=0.020);70~79岁组老年人的LTBI感染率最高(35.29%,42/119),并随年龄增加,感染率升高(OR=1.02,95%CI:1.00~1.04);郊区养老院老年人LTBI感染率(31.34%,63/201)明显高于城区养老院老年人(22.32%,50/224),差异有统计学意义(χ2=4.418, P=0.036);近10年曾发现结核病患者的养老院中老年人LTBI感染率(31.34%,63/201)明显高于未发现过结核病患者的养老院中的老年人(22.32%,50/224),差异有统计学意义(χ2=4.418,P=0.036);养老院中仅接受生活照护的老年人的LTBI感染率为31.34%(63/201),明显高于接受生活照护加医疗护理的老年人(22.32%,50/224),差异有统计学意义(χ2=4.418,P=0.036);老年人与护工人数之比为6~7的养老院的老年人LTBI感染率为17.97%(23/128),明显低于老年人与护工人数之比≥8的养老院的老年人(31.34%,63/201),差异有统计学意义(χ2=7.317,P=0.026)。多因素logistic回归分析结果显示,老年人与护工人数之比在6~7的养老院居住的老年人较老年人与护工人数之比≥8的养老院居住的老年人LTBI发生风险小(OR=0.50, 95%CI: 0.30~0.85)。结论: 青岛市养老院入住老年人LTBI水平较高,老年人与护工人数之比是影响养老院老年人发生LTBI的危险因素,养老院应合理配备护工,加强对结核病的预防控制。

Abstract:

Objective: To assess the prevalence of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) among elderly residents of nursing homes in Qingdao, identify factors associated with LTBI, and propose targeted strategies for the prevention and control of tuberculosis in institutional settings. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between June and August 2024 in Qingdao, China. One central urban district and one suburban district were selected using simple random sampling. Based on institutional size and willingness to participate, seven nursing homes were included. Elderly residents were screened for LTBI using interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA) and chest radiography. Demographic data of the participants and operational characteristics of the nursing homes were also collected. Results: Among 425 elderly residents surveyed, the prevalence of LTBI was 26.59% (113/425). Univariate analysis revealed a significantly higher LTBI prevalence among males (30.53%, 80/262) compared to females (20.25%, 33/163; χ2=5.450, P=0.020). The highest infection rate was observed in the 70-79-year age group (35.29%, 42/119), and the likelihood of LTBI increased with age (OR=1.02, 95%CI: 1.00-1.04). Residents of suburban nursing homes exhibited a significantly higher LTBI prevalence (31.34%, 63/201) than those in urban facilities (22.32%, 50/224; χ2=4.418, P=0.036). Similarly, individuals living in nursing homes where tuberculosis cases had been reported within the past decade showed a higher LTBI prevalence (31.34%, 63/201) than those in institutions without such history (22.32%, 50/224; χ2=4.418, P=0.036); the prevalence of LTBI among elderly individuals receiving only life care services was 31.34% (63/201), significantly higher than that among those receiving both life care and medical care (22.32%, 50/224; χ2=4.418, P=0.036). Residents in facilities with a caregiver-to-resident ratio of 6-7 had a significantly lower LTBI prevalence (17.97%, 23/128) compared to those in institutions with a ratio of ≥8 (31.32%, 63/201; χ2=7.317, P=0.026). Multivariate logistic regression analysis further indicated that a caregiver-to-resident ratio of 6-7 was independently associated with a reduced risk of LTBI (OR=0.50, 95%CI: 0.30-0.85). Conclusion: The prevalence of LTBI among elderly nursing home residents in Qingdao is notably high. A higher caregiver-to-resident ratio was identified as an independent risk factor for LTBI. Strengthening human resource allocation and optimizing staff-to-resident ratios in nursing homes may play a critical role in reducing tuberculosis transmission and improving infection control in institutional care settings.
