Summary

Multicentric observational prospective cohort study in 12 (twelve) hospitals representing all Brazilian regions.

The main objective of this project is to evaluate the incidence of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) when using the current ANVISA criteria for VAP versus VAE criteria defined by the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). The diagnostic accuracy of the two criteria for identifying VAP will also be compared, characterizing other events associated with mechanical ventilation that are not VAP, when applicable.

The study also aims to adjudicate ventilator-associated pneumonias reported to ANVISA using current epidemiological diagnostic criteria.
