“…Another European study, carried out in 20 pediatric units estimated the incidence of NI as 23.6% and positioned pneumonia as the most frequent cause in 53% 5 . In Mexico, Ávila-Figueroa et al 6 determined the prevalence of NI in pediatric patients in 21 Mexican hospitals. They found that 9.8% (95% CI, 8.1-11.6) of all patients seen had a nosocomial infection with pneumonia being the most frequent cause (25%).…”

Objective of the study was to identify the antibiotics most frequently used for treatment of nosocomial pneumonia in the DIF Pediatric Hospital of Hidalgo and evaluate the rationality of their prescription by determining the intrinsic value of each antibiotic. This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, indication-prescription study that included patients hospitalized with nosocomial pneumonia from January to December 2014. Data were obtained using the electronic medical record program Histoclin® and were analyzed with SPSS v18. Seventy-six patients stratified by age group were studied with infants predominating in 47.4% of cases. The most frequently used antibiotics were beta-lactams 98.7%, glycopeptides 71%, aminoglycosides 35.5%, imidazole derivatives 32.9% and lincosamides 22.4%. Antibiotic treatment interruption at 48-72 hours was 12% (meropenem, cefepime and vancomycin). Intrinsic value according to blood cultures was correct in 100% of cases. Total consumption of antibiotics expressed as DDD/100 beddays was for imipenem 9.23 DDD/100 bed-days, amphotericin B 9 DDD/100 bed-days, cefepime 8.27 DDD/100 bed-days, and vancomycin 8.11 DDD/100 bed-days. Total consumption of antibiotics during this period was 2,740,019.85 mg with a total investment of $2,724, 224.30 pesos. The intrinsic value of the evaluated drugs was correct. We recommend a standardized antibiotic administration guideline that favors their rational use.

evaluar la calidad del proceso de desinfección, medido en unidades relativas de luz (url) ensuperficies ambientales de salas de cirugía, instrumentos reutilizables y de reuso mediante el equipo luminómetro3M Clean Trace. Materiales: con un punto de corte en 250 url, para definir adecuada calidadde la desinfección, se evaluó una muestra por conveniencia de 39 elementos: seis críticos de reuso, seissuperficies ambientales y veintisiete de reutilización de difícil limpieza. Resultados: se encontró mala calidaden la mayoría de elementos evaluados. El gancho monopolar (reuso), la cánula de Frazzier (reutilización)y la mesa de medicamentos (superficie ambiental) fueron los elementos con niveles más elevados en cadagrupo. Conclusiones: es necesario mejorar la calidad de limpieza y desinfección en salas de cirugía; el luminómetrodemostró ser un instrumento útil en el control de calidad de este proceso; se requieren estudiosadicionales para proponer puntos de corte más apropiados.
