dc.description.abstract© 2020, Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical. All rights reserved.Introduction: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the main pathogens causing infection in intensive care units (ICUs) and usually presents antimicrobial resistance. Methods: Data were obtained from ICUs between 2010 and 2013. Results: P. aeruginosa had a prevalence of 14.5% of which 48.7% were multidrug resistant. We observed increasing resistance to carbapenems and polymyxin B and growing consumption of aminoglycosides, meropenem, ceftazidime, and polymyxin B. The regression impact between resistance and consumption was significant with respect to amikacin, imipenem, meropenem, and polymyxin B. Conclusions: Monitoring antimicrobial consumption and resistant microorganisms should be reinforced to combat antimicrobial-and multidrug resistance.
