Abstract
Nosocomial infections are among the important causes of mortality and morbidity in hospitalized patients. Infections seen in intensive care units (ICUs) constitute 25% of nosocomial infections, and respiratory system infections are the most common among them. The pathogens isolated from these infections and antibiotic resistance of them may differ among hospitals, as well as within the same unit over time. Endotracheal aspirate (ETA) cultures is the most widely used microbiological diagnosis method in respiratory tract sampling all over the world. In this study, it was aimed to retrospectively investigate bacterial agents and antibiotic resistance rates isolated from ETA samples of patients in the ICU of XXX.
