dc.description.abstractA 1-year prospective cohort study of health careeacquired infections was conducted at the neonatal intensive care unit of the University Clinical Centre Kragujevac, Serbia. The incidence rate of neonates with health careeacquired infections was 18.6%, and the incidence rate of the infections themselves was 19.4%. The incidence density of the health careeacquired infections was 9.1 per 1,000 patient days. The independent risk factors for health careeacquired infections were birth weight, length of hospitalization, duration of mechanical ventilation, and Apgar score. More than half of all isolated microorganisms were Klebsiella-Enterobacter (39.3%) and Escherichia coli (25.0%).
