Abstract
Hospital-acquired infections account for high mortality rates and hospital costs. We analyzed pediatric data from a tertiary teaching hospital and found that most of the cases occurred in the intensive care unit and had significant association with invasive devices. Bloodstream infections were the main site of infection, and Gram-negative bacteria were the predominant etiology.Entities:
