Nosocomial infections have an important place in human pathology, becoming a major public health problem due to the high frequency of multiresistant strains, with afferent consequences. In the Intensive Care Units (ICU), nosocomial infections represent a constant risk due to a cumulus of factors that increase susceptibility to infections, respectively: decreased immunity due to underlying pathology, patient exposure to a series of invasive manoeuvres, poor nutritional status etc. The purpose of this study was to e...

Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter spp. strains are opportunistic pathogens frequently involved in the etiology of nosocomial infections in immunocompromised patients. A major factor amplifying the risk of these infections is prolonged period of hospitalised patients, especially in intensive care units. Statistically, the strains belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family and those of the Acinetobacter spp. are ranked the first and respectively, the second among Gram negative bacilli, whose incidence has incr...
