ABSTRACT
Abstract INTRODUCTION:
The present study aimed to determine the incidence of health care-associated infections (HCAIs) and identify the main resistant microorganisms in intensive care unit (ICU) patients in a Brazilian university hospital.METHODS:
A retrospective cohort study was conducted in a Brazilian teaching hospital between 2012 and 2014.RESULTS:
Overall, 81.2% of the infections were acquired in the ICU. The most common resistant pathogenic phenotypes in all-site and bloodstream infections were oxacillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. (89.9% and 87.4%; 80.6% and 70.0%), respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
There is an urgent need to focus on HCAIs in ICUs in Brazil.
