Objective: To study the prevalence of wound infection on myocardial revascularization surgery stitches as well as the microorganisms Causing, predominant fri, acts and try to correlate it with the APACHE risk. Methods: A retrospective and transversal study, with analysis of the files of the 21 Patients with infected wounds myocardial revascularization operated Among 357 Patients Between the years of 2007 and 2009. Were the files checked on 2009. Results: There was in statistics Analyzing the Significance of the fri Patients. The average of Patients Were old aged and the prevalence is similar to the index found in literature, But There Are Variations about the microorganisms found all over the years. Conclusion: Besides the raise of wound infections along the three years, the prevalence Kept stable, once the numbers of surgeries maid raised proportionately. Fri Significant is not a variable to the Occurrence of myocardium revascularizations wound infection. Old aged people are more predictable to this complication and the microorganism is Causing variable. Descriptors: Infection. Infection Control. Myocardial Revascularization. Surgical Wound Infection. Postoperative Complications.
