Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common complication of patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation support. VAP continues to be associated with high morbidity, mortality, hospital cost ($10,000 to $25,000) and ICU stay.1 Depending on the definition used, the VAP rate ranges from 1.2 to 8.5 cases per 1,000 ventilators days.2 Prevention of complications and patient safety is cur...
Background: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is the most common hospital acquired infection in the intensive care unit with high mortality rate. The role of the clinical symptoms for the VAP diagnosis is limited. Procalcitonin (PCT), currently interested biomarkers, plays an important role in the diagnosis and the outcome of the ventilator-associated pneumonia patients. Objective: To evalu...
BACKGROUND Influenza and pneumonia combined are the leading causes of death due to infectious diseases in the United States. We describe factors associated with pneumonia among adults hospitalized with influenza. METHODS Through the Emerging Infections Program, we identified adults ≥ 18 years, who were hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed influenza during October 2005 through April 2008, an...
OBJECTIVE To describe the characteristics of patients with influenza A (H1N1)-associated pneumonia treated at two hospitals in the region of Liguria, Italy, as well as to describe their treatment and outcomes. METHODS This was a prospective observational study including all patients older than 16 years of age with a confirmed diagnosis of influenza A (H1N1) who were admitted to Villa Scassi H...
IN THE PAST 2 DECADES, ADVANCEments in immunosuppressive strategies and major breakthroughs in surgical and organ preservation techniques have transformed organ transplantation into a therapy for an increasing population of patients with endstage organ failure. Although preventing rejection remains the principle focus in improving overall survival statistics, pulmonary complications following t...
Staphylococcus aureus frequently affects human beings. Among clinical manifestations, necrotizing pneumonia is associated with a high mortality rate. Our objective is to describe the progress of severe Staphylococcus aureus infections in three intensive care units and analyze cases ofnecrotizing pneumonia in the period ranging from January 2011 to March 2013. Forty-three patients were studied, ...
The aim of our study was to investigate if hypoglycaemia correlates with outcome in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). We performed a prospective, observational study of consecutive patients presenting with a primary diagnosis of CAP in Lothian (UK). Admission plasma glucose was measured and, on this basis, patients were divided into two groups, hypoglycaemic (<4.4 mmol x L(-1) or <79.0 mg x d...
BACKGROUND Despite major advances in the prevention of cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease, the treatment of CMV pneumonia in recipients of hematopoietic cell transplant remains a significant challenge. METHODS We examined recipient, donor, transplant, viral, and treatment factors associated with overall and attributable mortality using Cox regression models. RESULTS Four hundred twenty-one cases...
