Objective: To determine the epidemiological, microbiological and clinical characteristics of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in adult patients hospitalized in an institution of IV level of complexity in 2016. Method: Obtaining data was done by using the base of data from the microbiology laboratory and the review of systematized clinical records of patients who were hospitalized in the period January to December 2016 with positive culture report for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, at the University Hospital ESE Cari. Results: When we related the variables age, sex, presence of comorbidities, qSOFA, hospital stay and days with antibiotic, it was found that there were statistically significant differences between qSOFA and mortality (Fisher <0.05), and although in the rest of the cases the differences were not significant (largely due to the sample size since only 6 subjects died), the fact is highlighted that all those who presented at least one comorbidity died, and that this was greater in women, in those who had hospital stays longer and more days with antibiotics. Conclusion: The results of the present study show a high number of cases of S. Aureus MR. Most of them were young adults, with variable hospital stays, in which combined therapy was used.
