Abstract

Objective: to identify the profile of microorganisms isolated from biological samples of
patients admitted to a hospital in Paraná.
Method: descriptive and retrospective research, with data collection from a secondary source, developed in a hospital in Paraná (Brazil), referring to 2018. The study population consisted of biological samples from 226 patients admitted during the period from January 1st to December 31st, 2018. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics.
Result: the mean age of the patients was 60.41 years old and the majority were women. Of the biological samples, 70 had positive results for bacterial identification. The tracheal aspirate showed greater positivity to microorganisms, with 30%. The most frequent microorganisms were Escherichia coli, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter sp. and Proteus sp.
Conclusion: the study contributes to hospital care, as it produces knowledge of the
microbiological profile and its resistance to antibiotics.
