Resumo: dc.description.abstractObjective: Analyze the prevalence of multidrug-resistant pathogens in intensive care units, identifying and evaluating risk factors associated with the acquisition of these infections, to inform prevention and control strategies. Methodology: Narrative bibliographic review study where research was carried out in the PubMed - MEDLINE database with the terms (Bacterial Multidrug Resistance Infection) AND ((ICU patients) OR (Intensive Care Unit patients)), from which 22 articles were selected that met the study proposal after applying the pre-determined selection criteria. Review: In intensive care units (ICUs), due to invasive procedures and prolonged use of antibiotics, we have a problem of great global public health concern, which are infections caused by multidrug-resistant microorganisms (MDI). The spread of these pathogens is influenced by several factors such as prolonged exposure to hospital environments, indiscriminate use of antibiotics, and invasive medical interventions that increase the likelihood of infections associated with multidrug-resistant pathogens. The implementation of strict hygiene measures combined with outbreak control and appropriate use of antibiotics are essential to reduce the incidence and impact of multidrug-resistant infections in ICU patients. Final considerations: The control and implementation of measures to promote the appropriate use of antimicrobials together with strict hygiene and decontamination measures are essential for combating antimicrobial resistance.pt_BR
