Data collection was daily performed between February and July 2015, at a public teaching hospital of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Data was entered in a database and subjected to descriptive, survival and multivariate analysis.An overall incidence of 20.4% was obtained. Nineteen (19) risk factors significantly associated with the disorder were found.
