A previous study showed a high incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia to multidrug resistant pathogens in our ICU. That has been related to lack of compliance to hand hygiene among health care providers in ou ICU.
A single-center cohort study performed in the department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care in our Hospital. All endotracheal isolates realised in the period of study are collected from the Department of Microbiology of our Hospital.
