Abstract

Introduction: BURNs are one of the factors that not only damage the skin but also are associated with bacterial INFECTIONs. Immune suppression, delay in referring patients to hospital, length of stay in hospital, invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are of the most factors causing BURN injuries to be exposed to multiple INFECTIONs. The aim of current cross sectional analytic descriptive study was to investigate MICROBIAL AGENTS that cause BURN INFECTIONs in patients hospitalized due to BURNs in Hospital of Ayatollah Mosavi in Zanjan, Iran (2010).Methods: Seventy patients were selected randomly in this study. Data were collected as follow: a) Questionnaires which contained demographic information of the patients and information related to BURNs. b) Check list for recording BURN- wound INFECTION symptoms. c) A special sheet for recording BURN wound culture results conducted through wound swabs. Wounds were observed daily and the presence and absence of signs of INFECTION were recorded. Data were analyzed by SPSS and chisquare test. P<0.05 was considered significant.Results: In 68.6% patients have found INFECTIONs. The culture test showed that main microbial germ that causing wound INFECTION was Pseudomonas. The wound results showed that there were a significant relationship between wound positive culture and the time patients referred to hospital and self-treatment before hospitalization. The most common cause of BURNs was fire (54.3%) and hot water (40%) respectively.Conclusion: Regarding the results of this study, pseudomonas was the main cause of wound INFECTIONs. As it is resistance to most antibiotic treatments, there is a vital need for preventing the spread of INFECTION in hospitalized patients.
