Our study indicates that special clinical care is required when ICU stay is prolonged to lower the risk of sepsis. These new and upcoming infections not only promote high mortality and morbidity rates but also contribute to increased cost of care due to the use of newer broad-spectrum antibiotics and longer hospital stay. The high prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms is unacceptable in the current scenario and hospital infection and prevention control play a crucial role in minimizing such infections.
