Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP)
Overview
• Morbidity, mortality and cost associated with VAP
• Who gets VAP? Risk factors that increase likelihood of developing VAP
• Etiology: The bugs
• Treatment: The drugs
• How VAP develops (Pathogenesis)
• Measures to prevent VAP
Definition- “Know thy enemy”
Pneumonia that develops in someone who has been intubated
-Typically in studies, patients are only included if intubated greater than 48 hours
-Early onset= less than 4 days-Late onset= greater than 4 days
Endotracheal intubation increases risk of developing pneumonia by 6 to 21 fold
Accounts for 90% of infections in mechanically ventilated patients

Prevalence of VAP
• Occurs in 10-20% of those receiving mechanical ventilation for greater than 48 hours
• Rate= 14.8 cases per 1000 ventilator days

Time frame of intubation and risk
• Risk of pneumonia at intubation days– 3.3% per day at day 5– 2.3% per day at day 10– 1.3% per day at day 15

Hazard rate for ventilator-associated pneumonia during the stay in the intensive care unit
Who gets VAP? (Risk factors)
• Study of 1014 patients receiving mechanical ventilation for 48 hours or more and free of pneumonia at admission to ICU
• Increased risk associated with admitting diagnosis of :– Burns (risk ratio=5.09)– Trauma (risk ratio=5.0)– Respiratory disease (risk ratio=2.79)– CNS disease (risk ratio=3.4)
Cook et al. Incidence of and risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumoniain critically ill patients.
Who gets VAP? (Risk factors)
• Increased risk with . . .– Witnessed aspiration (Risk ratio=3.25)– Administration of paralyzing agent (risk ratio=1.57)
• Decreased risk with . . .– Exposure to antibiotics (Risk ratio=0.37)– Risk ratio=0.94 per antibiotic prescribed
• At day 5=0.3• At day 10=0.43• At day 15=0.62• At day 20=0.89

VAP
Morbidity, Mortality and Cost
Length of stay and cost
• Remember that Medicare is no longer reimbursing for nosocomial infections
• VAP increased length of stay in the ICU by 5-7 days (mean of 6.1 days)1,2
• Increase in cost– Increase of $10,000-$40,000 per patient 1,2

Increased mortality
• Attributable mortality rates ranging from 5.8-13.5%1
• In systematic review by Safdar et al, patients with VAP found to be twice as likely to die as those without VAP (Pooled odds ratio 2.03)2

Etiology
AKA- the Bugs
Etiology
• Early vs. Late VAP1
– Early onset= Pneumonia develops within 96 hours (4 days) of patient’s admission to the ICU or intubation for mechanical ventilation
– Late onset= Pneumonia develops after 96 hours (4 days) of patient’s admission to the ICU or intubation for mechanical ventilation
– Very early onset= within 48 hours after intubation2

Mucociliary clearance
Pathogenesis
• Where do the bacteria come from?– Tracheal colonization- via oropharyngeal
colonization or GI colonization– Ventilator system
• How do they get into the lung?– Breakdown of normal host defenses– Two main routes
• Through the tube• Around the tube- microaspiration around ETT cuff
Oropharyngeal colonization• Scannapieco et al showed a transition in
the colonization of dental plaques in patients in the ICU
• Control=25 subjects presenting to preventive dentistry clinic
• Study group=34 noncardiac patients admitted to medical ICU at VA hospital (sampled within 12 hours of admission and every third day)

GI colonization
• Increased gastric pH leads to bacterial overgrowth
• Reflux can then lead to colonization of oropharynx
• Use of antacids and H2 blockers associated with GI colonization
Safdar et al. The pathogenesis of ventilator-associated pneumonia: its relevance to developing effective strategies for prevention
Supine patients• Studies using radioactive labeling of gastric
contents showed that radioactive counts were higher in larynx of supine patients
• One of the studies showed the same organisms in stomach, pharynx and endobronchial samples1
• Drakulovic et al. studied rate of VAP and found it to be higher in supine compared to semi-recumbent patients2
1 Hess DR. Patient positioning and ventilator-associated pneumonia
2 Drakulovic et al. Supine body position as a risk factor for nosocomial pneumonia in mechanically ventilated patients: a randomised trial
Tracheal colonization
• Cendrero et al:• 25 patients of 110 studied developed VAP• In these 25 patients, 22 had their trachea
colonized 3.63 days prior to diagnosis of VAP
• 17 of the 22 had oropharyngeal colonization prior to trachea
• Only 7 had prior colonization of the stomach
Cendrero JAC et al. Role of different routes of tracheal colonization in the development of pneumonia in patients receiving mechanical ventilation.
Pathogenesis- Through the tube
1) Condensate in tubing
2) Development of ETT biofilm
Condensate
• Condensate in ventilator tubing becomes rapidly contaminated with bacteria from patient’s oropharynx
• Craven et al showed that 33% of inspiratory circuits were colonized within 2 hours and 80% within 24 hours
ET tube biofilm
• Exopolysaccharide outer layer with quiescent bacteria within– Difficult for bacteria to penetrate outer layer
and bacteria within resistant to bactericidal effects of bacteria
• Adair et al study– “Microorganisms of high pathogenic potential
were isolated from all ETs collected from patients with VAP compared with 30% of ETs from the control group.”
ET tube biofilm
• Furthermore . . .– Study group of VAP patients- 70% found to
have tracheal isolates identical to biofilm isolates
– Control group without VAP- no matching isolates

Prevention
Preventive strategies
1) Around the tube
2) Through the tube
3) Less tube
Around the tube
1) Oral decontamination and selective decontamination of the digestive tract
2) Aspiraton of subglottic secretions including continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions
3) Semi-recumbent positioning
4) Sucralfate for stress ulcer prophylaxis
Oral decontamination- 2 meta-analyses
• Chlebicki and Safdar investigating the use of chlorhexidine in intubated patients– From Chlebicki and Safdar- relative risk
reduction of 30%– Effect most substantial for cardiac surgery
patients– Concluded by research team that
chlorhexidine likely delays rather than prevents VAP
Oral decontamination
• Chan et al. investigated antibiotics and antiseptics– Antibiotics were not found to be beneficial– Antiseptics were found to be beneficial in 6
out of 7 studies• Chlorhexidine studied in 6, five of which showed
benefit
– Note that mortality, ICU stay and duration of mechanical ventilation were not statistically significant
SDD- selective decontamination of the digestive tract
• Multiple studies showing effectiveness• Big concern is antibiotic resistance• Most recently- NEJM January 2009
– Study of 13 intensive care units in Netherlands showed statistically significant reduction of mortality of 3.5% in patients receiving SDD
– Same study showed that patients receiving SOD (selective oropharyngeal decontamination) had decrease of 2.9%
Subglottic secretion drainage
• Meta-analysis of Dezfulian et al showed risk ratio of 0.51 for development of VAP
• Also found that those receiving secretion developed VAP 3.1 days later than control
• Study groups also averaged 1.8 less days of VAP

Drainage of subglottic secretions
Continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions (CASS)
Kollef et al. A randomized clinical trial of continuous aspiration of Subglottic secretions in cardiac surgery patients
Semi-recumbent positioning
• Reduces episodes of aspiration
• As mentioned previously, study by Drakulovic et al showed lower rates of VAP in patients in semi-recumbent position
• Recommended by CDC and ATS/IDSA guidelines
Stress Ulcer Prophylaxis
• Sucralfate vs. PPI– In recent studies there was no VAP benefit in
those receiving sucralfate and these patients also had higher incidence of GI bleed
CDC.gov. Guidelines for preventing health-care-associated pneumonia, 2003.
Via the tube
1) Ventilator circuit changes
2) Condensate
3) Silver-lined ET tubes
Ventilator circuit management
• Craven and colleagues showed that ventilator circuit change every 24 hours compared to 48 hours increased VAP incidence
• Several later studies showed that circuit changes could be used safely for greater than 48 hours
Kollef et al. Mechanical ventilation with or without 7-day circuit changes
Ventilator circuit management• 1999 study by Kollef et al. • Randomized clinical trial looking at circuit
change every 7 days vs. no routine circuit change
• Study group incidence=24.5%• Control group incidence=28.8%• Cost of ventilator circuit changes
– $7410 control group– $330 for study group
Kollef et al. Mechanical ventilation with or without 7-day circuit changes
Condensate management• Heat-moisture exchanger
– Theoretical advantage=prevents bacterial colonization of tubing
– Studies= Mixed results– Disadvantage=increases dead space and resistance
to breathing
• Heated wire to elevate temp of inspired air– Advantage=Decreases condensate formation– Disadvantage=Blockage of ET tube by dried
secretions
CDC.gov. Guidelines for preventing health-care-associated pneumonia, 2003.
Condensate management
• Nurse and provider education regarding management of tubes with patient position change or manipulation of bed to ensure that condensate in tubing does not flow towards patient
Silver-lined ET tube
• Broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity in vitro
• Reduces bacterial adhesion to devices in vitro
• Blocks biofilm formation on the device in animal models
• Dog model- decreased severity of lung colonization
Silver-lined ET tube
• NASCENT study- prospective, randomized, single-blind, controlled study
• Relative risk reduction of VAP=35.9%
• Delayed incidence of VAP
• No significant reduction in mortality
Through the tube and around the tube
Inhaled prophylactic antibiotics
Inhaled prophylactic antibiotics
• Current controversial and more studies needed
• Major concern is development of antibiotic resistance
• No mortality benefit
Less tube
1) Nurse implemented sedation protocol
Sedation protocol implementation
• 2007 study by Quenot et al.
• Control phase without nurse-implemented sedation protocol followed by study phase with nurse-implemented sedation protocol
• Study phase had significantly shorter duration of MV (4.2 days) and lower incidence of VAP (6% vs. 15%)
UH bundle
• Head of bed elevated above 30 degrees
• Oral care q4H
• Suctioning q4H
• Stress ulcer prophylaxis
