There is little information about the growth of pathogenic microorganism of the nasal flora in tropical countries since most investigations were held in places with other climate. We identified the nasal flora bacteria of the medical residents of Londrina State University Hospitals. The method is the same that was described previously. The study was carried out in 88 medical residents and the results are presented in tables. It is possible confirm that the majority of the residents has 2 or more pathogenic bacteria in nasal flora with antibiotic resistance for penicillin (29%), erythromycin (19%), terramycin (12%) and cloranfenicol (9%). The resistance of the bacteria is low for the new antibiotics like ciprofloxacin, oxacilin, rifamphycin and the cephepyme.
