Methods A total of 3254 patients, hospitalized, followed and treated in Anesthesia and Reanimation, Pediatrics, and Pulmonary Intensive Care Units as well as Neurochirurgia, Orthopedics and Internal Medicine Clinics of Yuzuncu Yil University Medicine Faculty Research Hospital were monitored for hospital infections and the results were evaluated. Results Hospital infection rate was detected as 3.5% in Yuzuncu Yil University Medicine Faculty Research Hospital. The most common hospital infections were pneumonia (48.2%), urinary tract infections (19.6%), surgical region infections (18.7%), and blood circulatory system infections (13.4%), respectively. Among the causative microorganisms; Acinetobacter baumanii (23.2%) was the most common followed by Klebsiella spp.(20.5%), E. coli (19.6%), and Pseudomonas (% 11.6). Methicillin resistance of S. aureus and Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), which were detected as hospital infection agents, was detected as 100%. Additionally extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) rates of E. coli and Klebsiella spp. were detected as 81.8% and 91.3% respectively which were quite high. Although carbapenems were the most affective agents against isolated non-fermentative Gram negative bacteria in this study, the resistance rates were detected to be increased. Conclusion Hospital infections are important problems in our hospital like they are globally. The main aspect to gain control of these infections is hospital infection surveillance studies.
