RESUMO

This study aimed to determine the prevalence of nosocomial infection (NI) and distribution for topography and microorganism and its antimicrobial sensibility. The study was carried out in two Intensive Care Units (ICUs) of a public teaching hospital of Teresina, with sampling of 394 NI cases and processed by the SPSS Software. The respiratory infection was the biggest prevalence (61.26%) in the General ICU. It was found a bigger bacterial sensibility to amicacine (52.48%) in the ICU of the ER. The microorganism with bigger prevalence was Klebsiella pneumonia (35.46%) in the general ICU. In conclusion, the prevalence of NI in the two ICUs was 60.8%, exceeding 45.3% of the general rate registered in the Brazilian hospitals that is 15.5%, contributing to increase the morbi-mortality caused by infections.
