ABSTRACT Nosocomial pneumonia is an acute infectious disease, acquired in a hospital environment, caused by several pathogenic agents, the most common being Staphylococcus aureus, followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In-hospital pneumonia is the second most frequent infection in the hospital environment and the main cause of deaths from infections in this environment. The diagnosis is made based on clinical suspicion, and with the aid of complementary exams, such as chest x-ray and culture examination in endotracheal aspirate. Its incidence is directly related to the overuse of antimicrobials, invasive techniques and the fact that patients have their immunity compromised, due to serious illnesses or even abuse of medications. It is important to note that the patient's oral microbiota can become unbalanced when admitted to the ICU, being an important factor of pulmonary infection. The initial treatment is empirical until the pathogen is identified, thus being changed to a specific treatment. Thus, this study aims, through a narrative review, to present the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of nosocomial pneumonia, a disease with a high incidence and morbidity and mortality in Brazil and worldwide.
