Abstract
Nosocomial or healthcare associated infections (HCAI) appear in a patient under medical care in the hospital or other health care facility which was absent at the time of admission. These infections can occur during healthcare delivery for other diseases and even after the discharge of the patients. Additionally, they comprise occupational infections among the medical staff. Invasive devices such as catheters and ventilators employed in modern health care are associated to these infections
