Can procalcitonin and chest echography be used to diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia?
We read with great interest the article by Zagli et al 1 in a recent issue of CHEST (December 2014). Th e authors reported that the Chest Echography and Procalcitonin Pulmonary Infection Score (CEPPIS) had an acceptable and promising level of prediction eff ectiveness in diagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Although we strongly agree that ultrasonography is very helpful and a readi...
متن کاملClarithromycin Leads to Long-Term Survival and Cost Benefit in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia and Sepsis.
Increasing numbers of admissions for sepsis impose a heavy burden on health care systems worldwide, while novel therapies have proven both expensive and ineffective. We explored the long-term mortality and hospitalization costs after adjunctive therapy with intravenous clarithromycin in ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Two hundred patients with sepsis and VAP were enrolled in a published ...

متن کاملEvaluation of CD64 Expression on Peripheral Blood Neutrophils for Early Detection of Neonatal Sepsis
Background: Neonatal sepsis is a life-threatening disease with an incidence of 1 to 10 per 1000 live births and a mortality rate of 15% to 50%. The clinical signs are non-specific and indistinguishable from those caused by a variety of neonatal noninfectious disorders. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the importance of CD64 expression (FcgRI), a neutrophil surface marker, in ea...
متن کاملDiagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia in critically ill patients with sepsis.
BACKGROUND Timely diagnosis and prognostic assessment of ventilator-associated pneumonia remain major challenges in critical care. OBJECTIVE To explore the value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1, procalcitonin, and the Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of ventilator-associated pneumonia. METHODS For 92 patients, bronchoa...
