The least common were skin and soft tiussue infections \(SST\) with 2.3%. Incidence of SSI varied in the specific types of interventions\: LAM \(0.93%\)\; FUSN \(3.32%\)\; CRAN \(2.44%\)\; VSHN \(3.75%\)\; OTH \(0.23%\). Staphylococcus aureus was dominating among etiological factors isolated from patients diagnosed with SSI, BSI i SST, Acinetobacter baumannii was most common factor detected in PN, Esch"]
