Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are a public health problem worldwide and the main cause of preventable death and disability among patients who receive medical care. They can be caused by a large number of microorganisms, among which multidrug-resistant microorganisms are becoming more and more frequently involved, with the limitation of therapeutic options this entails. The most common HAI are catheter-related bacteremias, mechanical ventilator-associated pneumonia, catheter-associated urinary tract infection, surgical site infection, Clostridium difficile infection, and healthcare-associated neonatal sepsis. Proper training of healthcare personnel and patients is essential to preventing HAI. Proper hand hygiene is the main prevention measure.
