Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are critically ill and have low immunity. They will undergo various trauma medical procedures during diagnosis and treatment. The use of high-dose hormones and broad-spectrum antibiotics will increase the incidence of nosocomial infection in ICU patients. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the causes of nosocomial infection in ICU and provide basis for the prevention and control of nosocomial infection in ICU.
