摘要

Purpose Delays in antimicrobial therapy increase mortality in ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The more objective ventilator-associated complications (VAC) are increasingly used for quality reporting. It is unknown if delays in antimicrobial administration, after patients meet VAC criteria, leads to worse outcomes. Materials and Methods Cohort of 81 episodes of antimicrobial treatment for VAP. We compared mortality, superinfections and treatment failures conditional on the timing of identification of VAC. Results 60% of patients with VAC had an identifiable episode at least 48 before the initiation of antimicrobials. Antimicrobial administration after the identification of VAC was not associated with intensive care unit (ICU) mortality (OR 0.71, 95% CI 0.11–4.48, p = 0.701) compared to immediate antimicrobial administration. Similarly, the risk of treatment failure or superinfection was not affected by the timing of administration of antimicrobials in VAC (HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.42–2.19, p = 0.914). Conclusions We observed no signal of harm associated with the timing to initiate antimicrobials after the identification of a VAC. The identification of VAC should not lead clinicians to start antimicrobials before a diagnosis of VAP can be established.
