ABSTRACT

Background: Nosocomial infections are a growing problem of great social and economic impact that affects hospitals. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of nosocomial infections in a secondary care hospital.
Methods: A cross-sectional, observational study. Sample size was calculated for a proportion, hospitalized patients with more than 48 hours of stay were included; descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing was done using Fisher’s exact test; SPSS software version 18 was used.
Results: A prevalence of 9.52% was found, with an average age of 46.59 years; 64.3% of patients were female, 35.7% male. The prevalence was 16.27% in Internal Medicine department and 12.5% Surgery.
Conclusions: 10 out of 100 hospitalized patients develop nosocomial infection, similar to that reported in the literature.
