| Sumario: | Staphylococcus aureus are important agents of hospital infections, especially bloodstream primary infections. The objectivesof this study were to identify risk factors for infection by ORSA and risk factors associated to ORSA mortality, and to describe the profileof susceptibility to antimicrobiotic substances. We did a case control study with 44 medical registers of patients diagnosed with hospitalinfection by ORSA from April 2005 to July 2008. Independent risk factors for infection and mortality were defined after univariate andmultivariate analysis. Independent risk factors for infection by ORSA were the use of antibiotics in the last 15 days preceding the isolationof ORSA and the use of total parenteral nutrition. The independent risk factor for death was the use of mechanical ventilation. The mostfrequent places for ORSA isolation were the blood and secretions. The more frequent base diseases of patients infected by SARO were AIDS,bloodstream infection and pneumonia. |
