Materials and methods. The data from annual statistical reporting forms for 2013–2019 and nonparametric statistical tests for study results were used.
Results. The region annually registers 500–800 HCAI cases with the largest number (42.4%) in surgical hospitals. Nosocomial pneumonia (34.5%) held the lead in the pattern of HCAI in 2019, with its trend rate of growth. There was a two-fold decrease in the proportion of HCAI in the obstetric facilities. Since 2008, there had been no reports on nosocomial acute hepatitis B and C in the region.
Conclusion. The results of HCAI surveillance suggest that there are considerable problems in terms of their identification and accounting, monitoring, and compliance with the sanitary and anti-epidemic regime in the healthcare facilities, which can negatively affect the provision of epidemiological safety of medical care in the Orenburg Region.
