“…Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common complication of intubation and mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) (1)(2)(3) . VAP has been associated with increased mortality (4)(5)(6) , greater hospital length of stay (LOS), longer duration of mechanical ventilation, and significant healthcare cost (7)(8)(9) . The majority of this work has been conducted in large metropolitan facilities around the world where VAP is routinely audited.…”

“…Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is among the most common hospitalacquired infection, and it is the most prevalent in critically ill patients (1,2) . VAP negatively impacts patient outcomes, increasing duration of mechanical ventilation and increasing ICU stay (3) . Mortality rates among patients who develop VAP range from 20% to 70%; however, the mortality directly attributed to this infection is still debated (3,4).…”
