چکیده

Introduction. Acinetobacter baumannii is a pathogen and major cause of nosocomial infections in the current healthcare system worldwide due to its high resistance antibiotics, including those considered as last resort, thus posing threat severe clinical forms, well exhibiting significant economic impact.
 Material methods. A descriptive longitudinal cross-sectional epidemiological study was carried out based on model multidisciplinary care hospitals.
 Results. The generalized forms predominate 56.30%, including: pulmonary sepsis – 25.59%, abdominal 11.81%, septicemia 9.45%, wound sepsis– 6.30%, biliary 1.97%, urosepsis 1.18% cases. Local were found 16.93% 14.57% pneumonia A. baumanii present etiological structure 98.18% cases, an increased particularly monobactams 100.0%, macrolides 98.82%, penicillins 98.08%, cephalosporins 97.65%, with beta-lactamase inhibitors 93.20%, fluoroquinolones 87.16%, amphenicols 84.17% strains isolated from patients be multidrug resistant antibiotics 93.08% 
 Conclusions. represent public health issue that requires implementation strict surveillance control strategies, rational use antibiotics.
