- Abstract
Hospitals have the potential for developing the transmission of nosocomial infections. Nosocomial infection is an infection that develops in the hospital environment. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections in hospitals and more than 80% of UTI cases are associated with the use of a urethral catheter. This infection is caused by the development of microorganisms in the urinary tract and is characterized by the discovery of bacteria more than 105 CFU/mL. This research is an observational descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 60 patients who used in this research from the hospital at West Nusa Tenggara. Urine samples were collected and then cultured. Bacterial profiles that cause UTI that found in urine of catheter were Staphylococcus aureus (43.33%), Escherichia coli (21.67%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (10%), Proteus mirabilis (6.67%), Enterobacter aerogenes (6.67%), Serratica marcescens (5%), Klebsiella sp (3.33%), and Pseudomonas sp (3.33%).
