Background: Since December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused the dead of 1 million people, from these critically ill patients have an increased risk of bacteremia. Material and Methods: This observational, retrospective, single-center study included 129 critically ill COVID-19 patients with a bacteremia. We studied the clinical characteristics, comorbidities, hospital and intensive care unit length of stay, days on invasive mechanical ventilation, maximum dose of norepinephrine and mortality. Results: From 129 patients were reported 17 patients (13.2%) with bacteremia. 35.3% were cataloged as a primary bacteremia. The source of secondary bacteremia was a ventilator associated pneumonia in 81.8%, central line-associated blood stream infection in 18.1% and urinary catheter infection in 9%. The patients with bacteremia, had a hospitalization stay of 23 days Vs. 20.5 days in the patients without bacteremia (p=0.19); 18 Vs. 13.5 days in the ICU (p=0.061); 15 Vs 11 days on IMV (p=0.053) and a maximum dose of norepinephrine of 0.28 Vs. 0.11 mcg/kg/min (p=0.02). We reported a 14.8% of mortality in patients with bacteremia vs. 12.7% in patients without bacteremia, odds ratio of 0.87 (p=0.75). Conclusion: Critically ill COVID-19 patients and bacteremia tend to increase the length of stay in the ICU and days on IMV with no change in mortality.
