Objective: Evaluate the rate of surgical site infection (SSI) in an Urgency Room for non-elective surgeries of the digestive system, associated organs and abdominal wall. Methods: Epidemiological, prospective and descriptive study carried out in a reference hospital in the Western Amazon, in the city of Porto Velho-Rondônia. Patients were selected for data collection and secretion samples, according to pre-established criteria. Epidemiological data were provided by the hospital coordination. Results: A total of 605 operations were performed over a period of 10 months, 3.30% had a clinical diagnosis of SSI. A greater presence of SSI was identified in men 4.97%, against 1.14% in women, the most affected age group was among patients over 50 years old (4.16%). Conclusion: Possible causes for the SSI rates can be associated with the Urgency Room context itself, which involves high turnover, with precarious infrastructure for the high number of patients.
