| Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate the risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumoniae (VAP) in patients with cancer who are admitted at an intensive care unit and require mechanical ventilation for > 48 h. We emphasized in microbiology etiology, particularly multidrug resistant bacteria (MDRB). We included 263 patients during 2 year-period; 32 developed VAP, with a rate of 11.5 episodes/1000 ventilation-days. Gram-negative bacteria were isolated in 95% of cases, being the rate of MDRB 24.1%. Sixty-day mortality was 53% in VAP and 43% without VAP. There was not higher mortality in patients with MDRB. |
