Abstract

Nosocomial infection was found frequently in a hospital. This study was the retrospective study. The purpose of the research was to study the incidences of nosocomial infection and multidrug resistant infection in the tertiary hospital. Data were collected from medical records of patients from 2010 to 2021 by using the data record form which was reviewed by three specialists. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics.

The results showed that the nosocomial infection rate in 2010 to 2021 was 4,832 times. The infection rate was between 2.35-3.47 per 1,000 admission day. In 2020, the multidrug resistant rate was 50.54 which was the highest rate in patients with ventilator associated pneumonia. The percentage of multidrug resistant of Acinetobacter baumannii MDR infection of patients with ventilator associated pneumonia was 57.47.  

The results suggested that nurses should have a measure to prevent nosocomial and multidrug resistant infection, especially in patients using line and procedures
