Résumé

The World Health Organization released a statement warning of increased risk for the incidence of multidrug resistant microorganisms and the absence of new drugs to control such infections soon. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the prescription of antimicrobial agents has increased and may have accelerated the emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria. This study aimed to evaluate maternal and pediatric infections within a hospital from January 2019 to December 2021. An observational retrospective cohort study was performed at a quaternary referral hospital in a metropolitan area of Niteroi city, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. A total of 196 patients' medical records were analyzed. The data from 90 (45.9%) patients were collected before the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, 29 (14.8%) from the 2020 pandemic period, and 77 (39.3%) from the 2021 pandemic period. A total of 256 microorganisms were identified during this period. Out of those, 101 (39.5%) were isolated in 2019, 51 (19.9%) in 2020, and 104 (40.6%) in 2021. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were performed on 196 (76.6%) clinical isolates. The exact binomial test showed that the distribution of Gram-negative bacteria was predominant. The most common microorganism was
