Relative Frequency of Nosocomial Microorganisms at Unicamp University Hospital from 1987 to 1994
The frequency of microorganisms identified in nosocomial infections at Unicamp University Hospital from 1987 to 1994 was analysed. The most common microorganism was S. aureus (20.9%), which was found in surgical wound, bloodstream and arterial-venous infections. In urinary tract infections (UTI), gr...
