Popis: OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work was to evaluate the prevalence and resistance profile of microorganisms isolated from skin and soft tissue secretions. This type of study, as far as we know, was the first carried out in this hospital with a period of four years and a large number of samples. METHODS: A retrospective observational study of cultures of skin infections collected in a tertiary teaching hospital was carried out from January 2014 to December 2017. The tests for identification of the microorganisms and sensitivity profile were carried out using systems conventional and automated systems (Vitek® 2 - bioMerieux). RESULTS: During the period of this study, 675 samples were positive, being Staphylococcus aureus (118; 17.48%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (106; 15.70%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (65; 9,63%) and Escherichia coli (60%) were positive in the study period (60; 8.89%) the predominant microorganisms. Regarding Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 53.77% of the strains had resistance to imipenem and 44.34% to meropenem. Therapeutic options for the treatment of infections caused by this microorganism are limited. CONCLUSION: The epidemiological profile of the agents involved is similar to that reported in the international literature, which differentiates the sensitivity profile. A fact that needs monitoring is that Pseudomonas aeruginosa occupied the second place in the etiology and presented significant resistance against the carbapenems.
