Resumen

Introducción: Las infecciones asociadas a la asistencia sanitaria (IAAS) constituyen un importante problema de salud pública. Objetivo: Evaluar el perfil de las IAAS en pacientes con COVID-19 ingresados en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI) en un hospital público del sur de Brasil. Método: Estudio transversal, retrospectivo, realizado entre marzo de 2020 y octubre de 2021, de pacientes con COVID-19 hospitalizados en UCI con IRAS. Resultados: La principal infección fue la neumonía asociada al ventilador (230 casos), seguida de infecciones del tracto urinario (160 casos) e infecciones del torrente sanguíneo (103 casos), asociadas a la presencia de catéter. En cuanto a los principales microorganismos, destacó la alta prevalencia del Acinetobacter baumannii multirresistente (112 casos) en la neumonía asociada a ventilador con un aumento creciente en el periodo analizado. Las infecciones fúngicas fueron expresivas, especialmente Candida albicans. Los pacientes con neumonía asociada a ventilador presentaron menor mortalidad (OR= 0,31; p= 0,034), que aumentó significativamente con el incremento de días de estancia en UCI (OR= 3,02; p= 0,0000007). El perfil de los pacientes fue mayoritariamente masculino, con uso significativo de antimicrobianos y antifúngicos, alto grado de afectación pulmonar y evolución a muerte. Entre los predictores de mortalidad, el más impactante fue la insuficiencia renal aguda (OR= 4,45; p=0,0002) y el menos relacionado el tromboembolismo pulmonar (OR=0,47; p= 0,0167).  Conclusión: Se evidenció el alto porcentaje de IRAS bacterianas y fúngicas. El mayor predictor de mortalidad fue la insuficiencia renal aguda, mientras que el de menor mortalidad fue el tromboembolismo pulmonar.
