Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) have been described in COVID-19 patients in Intensive Care Units (ICUs); as well as the increase in isolates of resistant microorganisms. Objective: To determine the prevalence and distribution of bacterial and fungal HAI in patients with severe COVID-19 in the ICU of the Arzobispo Loayza National Hospital. Materials and methods: Descriptive case series study of patients hospitalized in the ICU with severe COVID-19 with HAI. The data was analyzed using the statistical software STATA V17 and the software WHONET. Results: HAI reached a prevalence of 26.08%, all were originated by gram-negative bacteria, with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) being the most common. Most of the patients with HAI were male; had 31-65 years; and ≥ 14 days of hospitalization; in addition, most of these samples were from tracheal aspirates. The most used antibiotics in these patients were vancomycin, meropenem, ampicillin/sulbactam and colistin. The antibiotic sensitivity of P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii and K. pneumoniae was <20% for carbapenems. P. aeruginosa demonstrated a sensitivity >50% to piperacillin/tazobactam, amikacin, and ceftazidime; A. baumannii, a sensitivity >75% to tigecycline; and K. pneumoniae, a sensitivity of 100% to amikacin. Conclusions: A prevalence of HAI greater than 25% was found in patients with severe COVID-19 in the ICU, highlighting VAP, with antimicrobial resistance challenges.
