ABSTRACT

Objective: To identify the main factor of risk in association with nosocomial urinary tract infection (NUTI) in Service of Neonatal of the Hospital of Ginaecology and Obstetrics, IMIEM, during the period of one year. Patients and methods: Prospective study (June 2009 to May 2010) including neonates who had positive bacterial urine cultures, to compare and validate the risk factors in this group; the selected cases were patients with a positive urine culture by bag specimen collection, through risk analysis, the risk factors were gestational edge, weight, intrahospital stay in days, sepsis, sex, parenteral nutrition, intravascular catheter, use of antibiotics, mechanical ventilation, blood transfusion, maternal infection, between others. On the other hand, analysed the results of general examination of urine, resulted of urine cultures, pathogens isolated and sensitivity or resistance to antibiotics. Results: 538 urine culture were made, 70 patients had NUTI, 12 and 3 of them had a second and third event respectly. The factor associated predominantly were the use previous of antibiotics (85%) and premature newborns (84.3%). Conclusions: The main factor of risk was associated to NUTI, were the use previous of antibiotics and premature newborns.
