| Abstract: | Representatives of the Argentine Society of Infectious Diseases (SADI) and the Argentine Society of Intensive Therapy (SATI) worked together on the development of specific recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The methodology used was the analysis of the literature published in the last 15 years, complemented with the opinion of experts and local data. This document aims to offer basic tools to optimize diagnosis based on clinical and microbiological criteria, orientation in empirical and targeted antibiotic schemes, news on posology and administration of antibiotics in critical patients and to promote effective measures to reduce the risk of VAP. It also offers a diagnostic and treatment algorithm and considerations on inhaled antibiotics. The joint work of both societies -infectious diseases and intensive care- highlights the concern for the management of VAP and the importance of ensuring improvement in daily practices. This guideline established recommendations to optimize the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of VAP in order to reduce morbidity and mortality, days of hospitalization, costs and resistance to antibiotics due to misuse of antimicrobials. |
