Аннотация
Intensive care units (ICUs) are unfortunately the epicenters of nosocomial infections. The aim of the study was to investigate device associated infection rates in a small Turkish hospital. Device utilization ratios and device associated infection rates were calculated according to definitions of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). During a period of 24 months 1,387 patients were surveyed in our ICUs. A total of 287 device associated infections were detected. In our study ventilator associated pneumonia was the most frequent nosocomial infection with a rate of 59.7 per 1,000 ventilator days. The most frequent pathogen of device associated infection was Candida spp. High rates of device associated infections in a small Turkish hospital clearly indicate the urgent need of the implementation of infection control guidelines.
