Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of the investigators work was to evaluate the impact of 4 sequentially implemented measures for preventing VAP in a major heart surgery ICU. The measures were a specific training program, aspiration of subglottic secretions (ASS), introduction of an inclinometer to improve the semirecumbent position, and reinforcement of oral care with chlorhexidine.
