The following variables were analyzed: Wards from which the isolation was coming from, type of sample, antimicrobial susceptibility in vitro and specie. <br /><strong>Results:</strong> the highest number of Acinetobacter isolations was obtained at the Polyvalent Intensive Care Unit (62,3%). Acinetobacter baumannii was the most isolated specie with a 92,2%. Respiratory exudate were the samples with more isolations (53,3%). More than 80% of the isolations were resistant to most β-lactam antibiotics and it was found a high percentage of multi-drug and pan-drug resistant strains (41,6% and 48,1% respectively).<br /><strong>Conclusion:</strong> the Acinetobacter gender is linked to infections connected to Sanitary Services mainly the Acinetobacter baumannii and in the Intensive Care Units.</p> | ||
