Ventilator-associated pneumonia
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2002Ventilator-associated pneumonia is the most serious infectious complication in critically ill patients, associated with increased length of intensive care unit treatment and high mortality rates. Investigations focused on outcome variables have improved the database to estimate diagnostic and therapeutic management strategies.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 1998Mechanically ventilated patients are at a substantially higher risk for developing nosocomial pneumonia. Overall, there is a relatively constant 1&!TN!150;3% risk per day of developing pneumonia while receiving mechanical ventilation. The sensitivity and specificity of clinical criteria alone for diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonias (VAP) is ...

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia in Children
Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2016Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common complication in mechanically ventilated children and adults. There remains much controversy in the literature over the definition, treatment and prevention of VAP. The incidence of VAP is variable, depending on the definition used and can effect up to 12% of ventilated children.

Biofilms in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia
Future Microbiology, 2016Biofilms develop rapidly following endotracheal intubation and represent a persistent source of unnecessary pathogens in the critically ill patient. Overall, the imbalance in the lung microbiome caused by an endotracheal tube and its role in biofilm formation and in ventilator-associated pneumonia is still unclear.
