Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common nosocomial infection in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). Antibiotic resistance poses an increasing threat due to the rise of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).Despite the increase in the frequency of MDRO colonisation and infection in dialysis patients, it is not known enough whether the risk of multi-drug resistant (MDR) pneumonia increases in mild-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) patients not receiving dialysis. Therefore, in our study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the relationship between renal functions and MDR VAP risk and the specific microbial pattern.
This prospective observational study was performed on adult patients intubated and receiving MV for at least 48 hours in the 42-bed surgical and medical Intensive Care Unit. The study was conducted between August 2019 and January 2021 and approved by the Ethics Committee of Necmettin Erbakan University Medical School. Informed consents were obtained from patients participating in the study or from their relatives. The characteristics of patients with MDRO infection associated with different eGFR categories in VAP patients were recorded.
