Infecciones Nosocomiales, Resistencia Bacteriana, Gérmenes

Resumen

Las infecciones nosocomiales debidas a gérmenes multirresistentes (entre las cuales las neumonías ocupan un lugar preponderante) se encuentran entre las infecciones emergentes y como tales constituyen uno de los problemas de salud más importantes a resolver en los próximos años. Múltiples evidencias demuestran que la resistencia bacteriana en las UTI tiene un impacto sustantivo en el pronóstico de los pacientes Los gérmenes presentes en pacientes internados en las UTI pueden provenir del medio ambiente, de la flora corporal normal o adquirirse por contacto con otros pacientes o trabajadores de la salud.
