Impact of Using Mini-Bronchoalveolar Lavage as a Diagnostic Test for Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia

Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Impact of Using Mini-Bronchoalveolar Lavage as a Diagnostic Test for Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia

Clinical Trial Summary

The proposed study will evaluate adult patients admitted to the medical or surgical intensive care units (ICUs) at San Francisco General Hospital (SFGH). On admission, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 manner to the mini-bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) quantitative culture arm in the setting of suspected ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) versus the tracheal aspirate culture arm, which is the current test available at SFGH.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients will be randomized to either Mini-Bal or tracheal aspirate then samples will be taken to the lab for culture. Comparative analysis will then be performed based upon lab results. ;

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
