BACKGROUND Pneumonia has traditionally been classified into two subtypes: community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and nosocomial pneumonia (NP). Recently, a new entity has been defined, called healthcare-associated pneumonia (HCAP). Few studies have investigated the potential of population-based, electronic, healthcare databases to identify the incidences of these three subtypes of pneumonia. The ai...
1. Evaluate the risk factors for gram-negative nosocomial infection and antimicrobial resistance for patients in the intensive care unit. 2. Apply your understanding of the mechanisms of resistance common to gram-negative bacteria in nosocomial disease, including extended-spectrum β-lactamase production, porin channel deletion or structural changes, and efflux pump expression, to empiric antibi...
Results During the study period 6616520 patients were hospitalized in 100 hospitals. A total number of 57082 patients got nosocomial infection according to NNIS definitions. The infection rate in 100 hospitals from 2007 to 2010 were 0.6% , 0.87% , 0.96%, 1.1% respectively, (range 0.2% to 5.7%). Urinary tract infections (UTI) was the most common infection (28.9%) among reported cases, followed b...
OBJECTIVE To describe and compare the mortality associated with nosocomial pneumonia due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa-NP) according to pneumonia classification (community-onset pneumonia [COP], hospital-acquired pneumonia [(HAP], and ventilator-associated pneumonia [VAP]). DESIGN We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults with Pa-NP. We compared mortality for Pa-NP among patients wi...
In our intensive care unit we monitored infection in 228 patients who underwent percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT). In the first phase of the study 128 PDTs were performed during a 33-month period and there were 41 infection complications (nosocomial pneumonia, bacteremia with sepsis, and septic shock) in the perioperative period (immediately prior to and for 5 days after PDT). A sign...
BACKGROUND Early identification of treatment failure for nosocomial pneumonia remains a major challenge. The goal of this study was to test whether procalcitonin kinetics can be used to assess the clinical efficacy in older critically ill patients with nosocomial pneumonia. METHODS A prospective observational study was conducted with 60 subjects (≥ 65 y old) admitted to the ICU with severe no...
Background: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia is the most important cause of mortality of nosocomial infections. Still incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and its related risk factors in routine nursing care in the intensive care unit has not been studied. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of Ventilator-Associated in intensive care units and its relationship with risk ...
OBJECTIVE The objectives were to assess the frequency of hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) in patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) and to determine the frequencies of different etiological organisms in these patients. METHODS This was descriptive cross sectional study, which was carried out in medical ICU of Shifa International Hospital Islamabad from January 2013 to January 2014. A...
BACKGROUND Despite the scanty data, proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are widely used for stress-related mucosal disease (SRMD) prophylaxis. There were few studies using PPI for SRMD prophylaxis but the results were conflicting, most probably due to inadequate sample size. The present meta-analysis aimed to determine the efficacy of PPI, as compared to histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) in the ...
