Grounding: Infections Related to Health Care refers to those acquired during the delivery of any health care service, and those obtained during the working day by health professionals to perform service procedures to the patient. According to Decree 2616 of 12/05/1998, hospital infection that is acquired after the patient's admission, which manifests itself during the hospitalization or after discharge. The HAI can be caused by contamination present on inanimate surfaces in a hospital environment, the tap being one of the most contaminated, the possible formation of biofilm. Objectives: Pathogenic microorganisms search inside faucets body and exterior door handles and to compare the results of bacterial strains among the sectors of the hospital and evaluate the profile of antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates. Methods: Samples were collected with the help of a Swab with half Stuart, by rotary motion in interior, body exterior faucets and door handles. The samples were inoculated into BHI broth and incubated in a bacteriological incubator and seeded by exhaustion with the assistance of a bacteriological loop, in petri dishes with MacConkey agar and blood agar Mannitol Salgado. After the incubation period the biochemical tests were performed according to standardized and described ANVISA techniques. Results: were found in the study, 12 bacterial strains, including Pseudomonas sp, ESBL, MRSA, promoting cross-contamination and leading to nosocomial infections, which largely result in deaths in hospitals. Conclusion: It was observed contamination by pathogenic bacteria in taps in different hospital departments. Contamination of surfaces taps corroborates the hypothesis that very touched surfaces become more contaminated. That premise reinforces the idea that cleaning and disinfection of taps must be intensified to be made assiduously avoiding the spread of these microorganisms through the hands of professionals.
