title: [Nosocomial infections in the Clinica Chirurgie CFR, Craiova].
abstract: The authors present Craiova CFR General Surgery Clinic experience on hospital infections from 1991 through 1996. This study shows that the frequency of hospital infections in our clinic is greater than all the other postoperative complications. Over the investigated period of time we witnessed an increase in the incidence of the postoperative septic complications in addition to those directly linked to the operated interventions (e.g. wound infections, postoperative peritonitis) such as: pulmonary infections: urinary tract infections, catheter sepsis etc. Finally, the authors pointed to the consequences of the hospital infections such as: mortality and late morbidity rates, economic implications. Thus, it is worth mentioning that 30 deaths (75%) out of our clinic total of 40 over the studied period of time were due to a postoperative infections and treatments.
