Abstract	Hospital-acquired infections (HAI) constituted a constant problem in health care facilities throughout the globe. Thus, it is important the implementation of policies to reduce or eliminate their frequency. Within this framework, could physical therapy play a role in the frequency of respiratory infections in patients after cardiac surgery? Trying to answer this question, we have developed this case control study in 214 patients whom underwent cardiac surgery in the Central Hospital “Dr. Emilio Cubas” from the Instituto de Previsión Social de Asunción, Paraguay (HCIPS). We divided this cohort in two groups: 1 -Controls: April to November of 2010 (n=112), patients within this cohort received respiratory therapy and rehabilitation from Monday to Fridays in the mornings. 2Cases (n=102) from June to December 2011, receiving intensive respiratory therapy and rehabilitation 7 days a week in the morning and in the afternoons. We determine the frequency of hospital-acquired infections in the post-op of both groups; identify the organisms causing these infections and compare the differences we found after intensify the sessions of respiratory therapy. There were no demographics differences in either group, the median age were 61 years, two thirds were males and on the control group the prevalence of COPD was 9.8% (n=112), in the case group was of 23.5% (n=102).
