About sex distribution, the results show a male predominance especially in the stroke cases in which the frequency of male patients affected is almost two times the frequency of women. The age group whit the highest percentage of positive samples was between 70 and 79 years. The most important associated diseases to infection where diabetes mellitus and renal failure and the most significant risk factor for infection was decubitus ulcers. According to etiological agents, the most frequent isolated bacteria was staphylococcus aureus followed by escherichia coli and finally pseudomona aeruginosa and the resistance patterns for the antibiotics where of 12% for amikacin, 10% for ceftriaxone and 22% for clindamicin, which are the most frequent antibiotics used in the emergency room.
