FRAGMENTO

La infección asociada a la atención de la salud es en la actualidad uno de los principales problemas sanitarios a nivel mundial; las infecciones por bacterias multidrogorresistentes (MDRO) son las más preocupantes.
Los patógenos intrahospitalarios más relevantes pueden persistir en superficies inanimadas secas durante meses. Algunos estudios también han identificado diferentes factores que influyen en la persistencia del germen, como una temperatura de 4-6 °C y una humedad alta.
