Evaluation of the Infection-Related Ventilator-Associated Events Algorithm for Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia Surveillance in a Trauma Population.
BACKGROUND The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recently introduced new ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) surveillance on the basis of the infection-related ventilator-associated complication (IVAC) definition. We aim to evaluate the accuracy of this new IVAC algorithm for detecting VAP according to the 2008 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/National Healthcare Safet...
متن کامل880Incidence rates of ventilator-associated events and ventilator-associated pneumonia in the National Healthcare Safety Network, 2012-2013
Background. Surveillance for ventilator-associated events (VAEs) is based on detecting conditions associated with increased oxygen or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) settings. In 2013 the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) replaced traditional ventilator-associated pneumonia (tVAP) with VAE surveillance in adult inpatient units. In August 2013 a minor PEEP criterion change was ma...
متن کاملDoes ventilator-associated event surveillance detect ventilator-associated pneumonia in intensive care units? A systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Ventilator-associated event (VAE) is a new surveillance paradigm for monitoring complications in mechanically ventilated patients in intensive care units (ICUs). The National Healthcare Safety Network replaced traditional ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) surveillance with VAE surveillance in 2013. The objective of this study was to assess the consistency between VAE surveillance...
متن کامل890VAP to VAE: Exploring the Epidemiology of a New Surveillance Definition
Background. Due to concerns about the subjectivity and inter-rater reliability of the surveillance definition for VAP (ventilator-associated pneumonia), a more objective outcome measure, VAE (ventilator-associated event), was released in 2013. We examined the epidemiology of the traditional VAP and new VAE measures in 6 adult intensive care units (ICUs) and hypothesized that VAE rates would be ...

Methods The Infection Control and Prevention Program (ICPP) at AUBMC conducts prospective targeted surveillance of device-associated infections in critical care areas (ventilator-associated pneumonia [VAP], catheter-associated urinary tract infection [CA-UTI], and catheter-related bloodstream infection [CR-BSI]). Device-associated infections are benchmarked against the rates published by the Na...
